In New York

New York, April 27.--Therc is q
general impression that high salaried
movie stars and stage personalities
are big Broadway spenders.'
The reverse is more often the case.
These persons do not under-cSt.-
mate for a moment their drawing ca
pacity in public as well As III the
theater. They know quite we'll that
the average cafe or night club pre-
prietor is so tickled to have them
drop in that he would almost pay for
the privilege. Frequently he does.
And if they are placed in the posi-
ton Of having to spend much, they
seek a place where the rules are diff
ferent.
The idea is this--human curiosity
being what it is. tourists and natives
alike will rush to such-and-such a
place if they think that L0ttie Film
face or Hector Hero will be there.
That makes business good, and Lot
tie and Hector are welcome faces.
Visitors from herc-and-there-and.
everywhere love to go home and tell
the folks they sat right alongside OF
Peggy Joyce or someone equally
prominent in the limelight.

THE BUTCHER SHOP

THE TWINS IN
THE BUTCHER SHOP
Nancy and Nick were so busy get
ting Mister Tingaling out Of the
sausage machine (into which he had
tainted when the three Gazookumses
jumped out of the window that they
never noticed the things the little
rascals had left behind.
1t was Mister Tingaling who saw
them first.
The minute they lifted the little
fairyman out of the sausage machine
and stood him on his feet. he saw
them.
ooh. look" he cried. his eyes as
round as his hat. "Looky there!
Whoop-eee! Hurrah!"
There on the floor lay the big
pocketbook, the rent book and the
lead pencil as nice as you please.
Nancy was the first to run and
open the pocketbook.
cts emnty!" she cried. "Thc Ga
zookumses stole the money"
where's the butcher" asked
Nick looking around.
"Here," said a strangling voice up
near the ceiling.
And as sure as I am writing on
paper, there hung the real butcher
on hook like piece of beef or pork
"Oh. you poor thing" cried Nancy.
"Get the ladder. Nick"
Nick went to Che cellar and got the
ladder, and Nancy got big sharp
knife, and they got the butcher down.
But there wasn't enough left of his
coat to make a patchwork quilt or
hooked rug.
Wont you tell us your story ~
asked Nick.
"story!". shouted Mister Tingaling.

well, it's no tea-party. so it must

the butcher. "Ga-ga-ga-say. what did

Crime News

Does the reading of crime lead to violation
of the law? Do the persons who read murder
stories want to go ont and do likewise? What is
the influence Of crime news upon the reader?
Here is new idea, advanced by DR.. A. A. Brill
of New York city, psychologist and investigator
of the human impulse" He says, in part:
1--WE chafe under law and order. Responsible
citizens even venture into crime when it comes t.
taking income returns. slightly or not declaring all
the things they bought abroad when they come home
through the customs.
$50 much we allow ourselves, but we hold back
at stealing and killing Yet we like to read about
the clever crook who gets away firm the honest
policeman principally because the criminal tendency
in u finds familiar note. We, identify ourselves
with him and that gives relief to the suppressed
criminal tendency in rs.

BRITISHERS
DISLIKE u. S.
SAFETY RAZOR
Two Other Pet Dislikes in
England Are American Plans
and American Films

London, Oct. 3O.--LP)-Thc Amer
lean safety razor has now been added
to the two other pct dislikcs Of u
plays and American films.
The House Of Commons has heard
a lot about safety razOrs since the
British army decided 10 issue them to
soltiiers--many years after most other
large countries had abandoned the
old-fashioncd razor.
Thot We're For TOmmics
The suspicion that British tommics
might be forced to shave with Amer
lean safety ra2ors raised n great row,
but the War Office insists both the
razors and tho blades will be British
made.
Sir Alfred Butt is tired Of the com.
plants about imported plays and
made this statements: Il know there
is a small minority who consider it a
dissertation that musical play i'm.

He was speaking Of "Rose Marie"
which had been running without in
terruption for eighteen months at
The Drury Lane. has earned profits
aggregating more than fl85,O00 and
has turned the theatre from a losing
to highly profitable playhouse.
"Aftcr all. art has no nationality"
Sir Alfred said in his report to Drury
Lane stockholders. II am satisfied that
the more than two million persons
who have seen the play were more
benefited from "A national point Of
view than they would have been NY
many Of the so.called intellectual
plays which depend largely upon
salocinus;eeg ard Spnsuality for their
success"
This was Il punch nj Basil Dean.
with whom Sir Alfred had row
about the production Of Rose Marie"
Dean threw up his connection with
the theatre and predicted Rose
Marie" would be failure.
Protests against American films
have been about as futile. apparently.
us those directed against American
plays. Harold Lloyd and many other
American film stars drew record
crowds in spite Of attacks which many
film critics have made upon American
films.
British picture theatres by n ma
jority vote decided against a plan
which would have forced them to
show certain quota Of British.made
films.
