THERE is a fast-irlcreasing number
of persons in Hollywood who can
capably handle more than one job dur
ing the production of picture. There
are directors who not only direct, but
Great stories, write dialogue and even
play featured roles in their own pic
lures. There are actors who play star
parts and at the same time collaborate
on dialogue writing. supervising and
costume designing. A few writer's also
play featured parts in the screen adap-
tations of their works. Still others in
the movies have the ability to prac-
tically produce a picture with only the
cast necessary to complete the produc-
ton unit.
Raoul Walsh is currently directing the
third Victor McLaglen talking picCure,
for which he also wrote the story and
scenario. Usually Walsh plays part
in every picture he makes, but on this
production his faculties were too occu-
pied with writing and directing to per-
NIT him to play a part.
Maude Fulton is another of those
fortunate persons who does not have to
worry about losing job. Her career
reads like a catalogue Of all the pro-
LESSONS contained in the theater, screen
and literary work.
At various times she has been q con-

cert pianist, a composer, a dancer. an
actress, magazine writer, stage di-
rector, a theater manager, a screen title
writer and a scenarist, as well as hav-
ing achieved considerable fame as q
dramatist. She Is the author Of THE
Brat" THE Hummingbird," "Tomor-
row" and The Big Top" besides other
stage hits.
George Jessel has a great dislike for
speaking lines written for his parts by
some one else. For this reason mainly
he theoretically sets himself to rewrit-
ing or originating new lines for his
roles. He has offered to write the dia-
logue In full for his next picture.
David Butler Is working on story
for his new picture. Butler is another
director who usually plays part in his
own pictures.
More than one talent has been put
to use by Alfred Santell in the pro-
ducEion of Romance of Rio Grande."
A reproduction of hacienda was need
ed as a background for most OF the
scenes, which take place on Mexi-
can rancho. Several sketches were sub
mitted to the director, who was for
merly an architect. He looked them
over and was disappointed, because they
lacked authenticity. To satisfy his own
demands. Santell drew blueprints Of a
real hacienda which he had visited q
few years ago. He then designed the
complete set and invited Don Jose Mo-
jica, a native of Mexico, to give his
opinion as to its authenticity. He de-
clared that 1t looked like home to him.

Activities on the new Ameri- can Creek power development project of the Power Corporat- ion of Canada are now well un- der way. A crew of about 20' men is engaged in clearing a road from the Bear River high way to the site of the proposed power plant and in clearing the timber from the site of the projected dam and power house.

CREEK
 MINING COMPANY
 SURVEY COMPLETE

The work of surveying the big mineral holdings of the Ameri- can Creek Mining Company, on American Creek in the upper Bear River section, has been completed by Dalby B. Morkill, B. c. Land Surveyor, according to Oren r. Hill, president and managing director of the com pany, who returned to town Tuesday, after spending most of the past week on the prop erty. MT. Morkill is now en- gagged in survey work in the Marmot River section.
 MT. Hill informed the Herald that work on the company property, comprising fifty-two claims and fractions, is prog ressing steadily under the di- rection of A. Pasco, local met allurgist and assayer. Between 10 and 12 miles of trail has been built leading to the many different known ore bodies and showings, from which hun dreds of assays have been made during the past four or five years. The work now in progress is confined entirely to systematic development of the surface showings. The com pany is also constructing a good camp, so located that the various and widespread ore ex- posures can be reached by the shortest route possible to at tain.
 No more convincing evidence of the confidence of local min ing men in the future of the American Creek Mining Go. property could be found than is presented in the authoritat- i've statement that William H. Tolin, manager of the Mount ain Boy Mining, has purchased a very large block of stock in the former company, the prop ties of which adjoin the Mount ain Boy.
 The Mountain Boy is already a proven mine and sensational developments on the property are expected to be announced in the very near future, accord ing to those in a position to know the inside facts regard ing recent operations.

A cable report covering de- velopment progress on the B. c. Silver, issued by the London office of the Selukwe company July 13, provides an interest ing insight from official sour- ces regarding the recent high ly promising ore discovery on that property in the announce ment that the ore body encoun- tered in drift 636 on the 9th level had been opened for a distance of 120 feet, with the ore continuing in the face. The average value for the whole 12O feet was given as $22 per ton across a width of 7 feet. As ore was still to be seen on both the hanging and foot walls, indications pointed to the ore body being of some- what greater width, the esti- mate being around ten feet. Some of the cut samples were said to have given assays rang ing between $60 and $1OO per ton. .
 The ore body is considered the downward continuation of the rich All Premier stope, ac- cording to the report.
