no honors go to the playwright.

work Of young D'Arrast and the
acting Of Menjou, Service for

The headwaiter falls in love
with an American heiress, and

Stars Hold Up Production.

IT was just another case of stars
holding up production when work
was called of on the Seventh Heaven
set at Fox Films West Coast studios
the other day.
Only In this particular instance it
wasn't the fault Of Charles Farrell
and Janet Gaynor, the two youthful
leads in the picture. They were there
and ready to work.
1t was because the tiny electric
lamps which dotted the sky backing
outside the window of the scene had
become temperamental and refused to
work in the way the chief electrician
and cameraman intended.
This particular scene was laid in
Chico's home-"Seventh Heaven
high up over the roof tops of Paris,
where one gets a gorgeous view of the
adjoining houses and the stars. And
since they played such an important
part In the scene. they had to be of
the exact brilliancy to pick up as real
stars in a camera, not too bright, but
not too dim-hence the delay.
