INSTRUCTED CRESCENT

TT is general superstition through
= out Europe and the United States
that If you see the new moon through
trees or shrubbery you will have trou-
BILE all that month. In some parts of
the country they have a rhyme which
goes:
See the new moon through a glass
See sorrow while 1t lasts.
That Is, you will have bad luck for
month. The reason Is easy enough to
see. The new moon, the crescent, is
the favorite form and symbol of the
moon-goddess call her Isis, Artemis,
Diana or what you will. From the
moon goddess in her crescent form
emanate the benefcent influences
which mean good luck and prosperity
Now, If when you first see the new
moon in the sky, first hail the crescent
goddess in the monthly beginning Of
her manifestation. there interposes be-
tween you and her the houghs of trees
or the branches of bushes, or the bar
rier oe glass 1t is evidently a sign that
while that moon lasts-for that month
in short--you are cut of from the
benehcent influences of the goddess.
Consequently sorrow and Oa5 'ac!!,,.

The two stages through which mar

the latter stage of development there

Measuring Lights Speed

The speed of light was measured
first by timing the eclipses of Jupiters
moons; light takes about 165s minutes
to cross the earths orbit, so when the
earth is on the side of it's orbit away
from Jupiter the sclipses will seem to
occur at 1917 minutes late. Several
other methods of measuring the veloc-
lty of light have been worked out.

movie salaries:
The ten biggest money-makers Of
the screen are Harold Lloyd. Doug

Mix, Cecil De Mile, Rudolph Valen-
tino, Lillian Gish and Marion Davies
There are a number of stars close
behind the lucky ten. Pola Negri,
for instance, receives $4,000 a week.
Richard Barthelmess gets $4,000 a
week, plus share in the profits OF
his pictures. This runs almost to
the salary figure again, but more
often averages around an extra
thousand.
When Barthelmess signs his next
contract, year from now, the figure
will doubtless be $4,000 or consid-
erably better. This young star is
climbing we'll into the big money
class.

Norma Shearer was getting just

year or so will bring around $4,000

Ramon Novarro's rapid advance

WHEN MONEY
CALLS ART GOES
TO B0W-W0WS
Rudy Says Art Can Wait
When Box Office Calls
for Sheik.
BY Lincoln Quarberg

HOLLYWOOD, July 1S.-Ru-
dolph Valentino is going back to the
"sheik stuff" to please the flappers
and fatten his purse.
The sheik ofthe screen has decided
that the only way to remain popular
with the fans as we'll as the critics is
to feed them what they want in film
fodder.
Since I made my first big hit in
The Sheik' 1 have tried to create
very artistic pictures" Valentino
said. I'm way 1 went over, but
never like The Sheik.'
II had visions Of improving the
public's taste for finer films. Bah!
From now on I will watch the
ticket-window and give them all this
sheik stuff they want"
Knows He Has Slipped
Rudy rather reluctantly admitted
that his latest pictures have not had
the box office pull he had hoped for.
He deplores that fact because he
feels he is a better film actor today
than he was when he made THE
OIl0lh.
However, in returning to his old
tricks to re-win the flappers' hearts,
Valentino Is not going TO reJuvenate
the Latin brand OF heart breaker. He
plans to be a romantic Russian.
The actor believes he can endow
the Russian lover with the same ro-
mantle glamour which now sur
rounds every handsome son of Italy
or Spain because of the original
Valentino Interpretation.
The cameras are already grinding
out the initial scenes Of Valentino s
next production, which he calls 1.-THE
Untamed" Rudy, Of course, Is the
Unframed" part Of the picture.
He is a Russian bandit stealing
everything from vodka to girls
hearts, mostly the latter. He rides
handsomely on a fast horse, dances
and makes love with the same ardor
that characterized NThe Sheik."
He does not wear whiskers and
there are no bolsheviks in the story
as the action takes place before the
"sheik" at heart, and plays 1t in a
diabolical fashion. In a background
of old Russia.
Bemoans "My Art"
It grieves Valentino to become a
Sheik again and abandon his best art
to cater to the ticket-buyer.
II hate to be called The Sheik' "
he said. because the word has taken
on a devlish meaning.
IT pick up a paper and what do I
see? A 'sheik' has been arrested for
annoying girls in a dance-hall, or
wearing lace for trouser cuffs. An
other 'sheik' has murdered his
grandmother because she wouldn t
give him money to buy gin.
II should like to make pictures
that would appeal to the fans like
The Sheik' Gid. but want to make
them better. That, of course is a diff
ficult thing to do"
