With Death Goes Market
 Value of Movie Stardom

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. IS. P)-- Why the public will pay money to read a dead mans books, see dead mans plays or hear dead mans music, and yet invariably will spurn the acting of a film star who has died, is question which perplexes motion picture producers.
 Particularly puzzling it is when it is considered that the average film fan never sees the living body of his favorite actor, but only the reflection of that body upon the screen. Yet when a screen celebrity is buried, his other self upon the film is buried too, just as effectively, it seems, as if the actor and his celluliod coun- terpart had been boxed in the same coffin.
 When John Bunny the popular comedian of early movie days, died during the height of his fame it was accepted as a foregone conclusion by officials of Vitagraph, the company which had featured him in scores of productions, that his moion picture immortality was assured. His death they thought was an opportunity to demonstrate great movie miracle the power that is in the films to make a man live on beyond the grave, as real, as lifelike to his au- diences as if he never had died.
 But the public dropped John Bun ny with emphatic suddenness. His company found Bunny's pictures were a drug on the market. He was dead; the papers had said so; and film fans declined to pay money to see the shadow of a man scarcely any of them had ever seen in the flesh. His pictures died with him.
 When Sidney Drew died an attempt was made to continue showing the delightful comedies of married life in which he and Mrs. Drew had ris- en to popularity. The attempt fail ed
 Similar were the experinces with arold Lockwood, Olive Thomas, Jack Pickford's wife, and with Wal lace Reid-invariably the public re- jecting films which, had the featured stars been alive, would have run on and on until the celuliod wore out.
