Misses Candle Light.

MRS. THOMAS WHTFFEN, that
grand old lady of the stage, has
one acute grievance against the mod
ern theater. In 'Trelawny of the
Wells" as in other plays in which
she has appeared in the last few years,
she misses the soft glow of the candle
lights that We're used as footlights
when she was an ingenue so years ago.
The candle lights, which were later
succeeded by lamps, were less exact
ing on the players makeup and were
so much more sympathetic than the
binding 1,000watt incandescents that
are used today, according to Mrs.
Whiffen. Nor did they cast those
hard shadows that any actress today
thinks of as making her age seem ten
years greater than it is.
But perhaps the new system is
best" adds Mrs. Whiffen, for today
you have no fires. It's so much safer
for the players and for the audience"

Rudolph Schildkraut.

RORN in Constantinople, educated in
Berlin and Vienna and now a IA
nous star in movieland-that is the
saga of Rudolph Schildkraut.
Schilukraut came to America with
the praises of the Old World still ring
ing in his ears. His first venture on
an American stage was THE God of
Vengeance" which he played on
Broadway. Then followed THE Mon
grel.' At the expiration of his work
in the last-named play he was en-
gagged by Universal to co-feature with
his son Joseph in His People" which
established both actors as film players
of unusual merit, and both were
placed under contract by Cecil E. De
Mile
Rudolph Schildkraut's first work un.
der this agreement was in Young
April. Then came pals in Para
disc" and THE King of Kings" in
which he played the part Of Caiaphas,
the high priest.
Schildkraut does not plan to return
to the stage.
