Edward Arnold is of the first crop of
National Players-and he waxed high

until he also went to an outside pro-
duction which had lasted the wear and

stock season months. But even so, Mr.
Arnold returned and was one of the

Ramona" and Of its development intt
the wonder song hit of the ages, is 9
romance all by itself, and it is goine
to stay all by itself as far as l an
concerned. Suffice it to say thai
Ramona" was so entirely. successful
from all points of view with the pos.
sible exception of my OWN, that it was
instantly followed by "Jeannine,
Dream of Lilac Time" Laugh, Clown
Laugh" Revenge" and ever so many
others. Some one even managed tc
squirt a theme song into one of those
hunting big game in Africa films; ii
was, "Safari, I'm Coming Back to You
Sonny Boy" the theme song of Al
Jolson's THE Singing Fool" has been
such hit that the Messrs. Warner plan
to produce another picture called Sonny
Boy" so that they can use the same
theme song over again.
X IL x%
One might be pardoned by the COVER
nor for supposing that there is a con-
ceivable limit to this sort of thing, that
even the most adroit composers and
lyricists can go just so far with theme
songs and no farther. After all, one
might say hopefully, they can't con-
tinue indefinitely thinking up movie
titles that slide as rhythmically into
waltz time as Ramona" did.
The title of the picture no longer
matters. Any title whatever can now
be fitted into theme song by means of
the formula invented by those talented
fellows who, when called to provide a
theme song for THE Woman Disputed"
evolved Woman Disputed, I Love You"
Such ingenuity as that will overcome
all obstacles, and as a result of it we
now have every right to expect:
Man in the Iron Mask, Love You"
Gentlemen of the Press, Love You"
"A Connecticut Yankee in King
Arthur'S Court, I Love You"
THE Strange Case of Miss Annie
Spragg, Love You"
These will be sung by one of the lead
ing players, whose voice doesn't photo
graph any too WELL but who looks cute
when mounting the words. The melodies
will be repeated in every love scene
throughout the picture-and not until
you have had chance to count the
repetitions Of the theme song do you
realize how many love scenes there are
in the average movie.
X X " X
1t is my belief and hope that sound
pictures are what Joseph M. Schenck
would call passing phase. They
represent that uninteresting stage of
development when the horrible little
object swimming around in the water is
neither tadpole nor frog.
Before very long, the movie producers
will have made up their minds whether
the. public wants (a) silent pictures or
(b) talking pictures. In either case, the
illegitimate sound picture will pass out
of existence
Let us fervently pray that the theme
song viii pass with it.

built over the sides OF the ship, hanging

these swinging stages director and cam
