Some Of these may be heard

quently suffer. The. adventures
in the Red" of Hollywood may
be proportionately as numerous
as those enjoyed by the Broad,
way producers. but since the
Wset Coast production is prac-
ticclly continuous the ballyhoo
for the new pictures pushes the
failures into the background.
Thus the recent financial state
ment of Universal Pictures
which showed slim earnings was
attributed to the fact that in
It was contained a $1.0O0.000 or
more deficit crossed off for the
failure Of Uncle Toms Cabin"
as q super feature.
Warner Brothers necessarily
does not boast about the failure
Of Texas Guinan as a movie
star nor what her Queen of
the Night Clubs" will represent
on the wrong side of the ledger.
Nor of features which are
quietly viewed in the lesser
theaters. They have too many
hits to talk about, and ask for
the spotlight on that $1,000
900 earnings statement. Mean.
while they continue to make
more pictures.
Paramount put Fatty Ar
buckle on the shelf without a
rnurrnur over the losses such a
course entailed. This past sum-
nner it shook up the Long Is
land studio because a. couple
of "duds" we're turned out by
those in charge of production.
Gloria Swanson is trying to
salvage something out Of the
$780, 900 already spent on
"Coueen Kelly" which the pro-
fits Of 1.-THE TreSpasser" will
have to care for. Norma Tai
mAdee has spent a young for

as a talking picture actress
and is reported having made
over her recent feature.
Pathe didn't renew the OPP

less than a sensational success.
John Gilbert's lone Glorious
Night" is not among Metro
Goldwyn'S major achievements
and jealousy" is among the
seasons best flopS. To go
back further thousands regret
a blind faith in the genius of
D. w. Griffith which cost them
plenty of money.
There is one point of diff
ference between Hollywood and
Broadway failures. Failure to
register a bull'S-eye on the West
Coast does not mean that pro-
duction SuSpends and the out
put Of pictures is held up until
sure-fire stories can be found.
Enough features are made to
keep the screens of the thou
sands Of great motion picture
theaterS well filled. Some of
them click. Many Of them
fail. But there Is always a
supply.
Broadway has been relying
upon a handful of producers.
When these play manufac-
turers fail there is no product
to fill the stages of the legiti-
mate theater. They are unable
to pull out a dramatic failure
and Immediately replace it
with another play which has

GLEANINGS
:AND:
SCREENINGS E
By ANDREW K. KELLEY

1t is possible to catalogue
Paul NUM-, making personal
appearances at the Fox Theater
this week with his picture,
Seven Faces" as a lover of the
drama.
Before the curtain rose on
"The Infinite Shoeblack" at
the Belasco Theater last night
he was seated waiting for the
play to begin. He slipped out
for his personal appearance on
the Fox stage at 9:01 p. m. and
then hustled back for the Sec
ond act. And Mr.. NUM- is
generous with his applause.
While the star of The Val
liant" and the current Seven
Faces" has been playing
heavy" and protean roles as
camera actor, he is soon to be-
come the Sheik of the Fox Pic
lures, according to gossip. In
other words the schedule will
call for features in which he
can build up a definite appeal
with the flapper patronage.
The movie Paul MUM is &C
tually Mum Weisenfreund, Of
the YiddiSh Theater and
ranked with the best actors Of
the American stage.

Pile Old Mr.. Toad and are very good

"Who is Farmer Browns Boy?" asked
the little dog, looking up with interest

the Hound. "You will like him"
IT wonder II he'll let me stay" said
the little dog wistfully."
1T wouldn't be q bit surprised" said
Bowser the Hound. Here he comes

The little dog looked up and sure
enough there was Farmer Browns Boy

corn field. He had q hoe over one
