MEN MARKED BY
 MULES IN AFRICA
Animals Cost More Than Horses in Ethiopia;
 Dislike Humans

Addis Ababa (UP)=Foreign ccr- respondents ride mules ell day in Addis kDIoa, and spend the evening standing tip.
 Actually, there is no reason for the mules. They take Q half or three-quarters of an hour to reach any given point, and they eat their h .ds of. If 1t rains, 6 taxi is flec- essary, anyway. But there is some- thing about mule.
 If the rider kicks the animal and yells "metsch" it will trot, and the next time 1t hears metsch will tr0t again, not SO much in agreement as zn anticipation of the kick to follow.
 There are several two-mule men long the foreign correspondence at Addis Ababa. As such they are two-boy men-ofle boy to care for the beasts and the second to ride the extra mule and carry bundles A two-mul, two-boy man must be careful not to get too famtlial with a one-mille man. It isn't done.
 He must not associate too close ly with horsefnan. Mules cost much more than horses in Ethi- opia, probably because of their su- preme contempt for anything hu- man. And he must in no case be seen too often with mere pedestri- ans.
 Then there is the matter oi equipment, There is German correspondent with . car, wife a chauffeur and 6 Great Dane There is an Englishman with g fly switch, a gas mask, and a case of Scotch whiskey which almost caused an international incident on the frontier. g
 There is a Canadian with two mosquito nets, a kettle for boiling water, and a pair of mosquito boots of canvas which would holc at least five gallons of water apiece, he says.

POLES

To night is the last opportunity to see Jane Withers in This Is the Life" and then as an added treat @ new version of '"The Old Home stead".
 For four days starting Saturday Polls brings the most massive film ever attempted, "The Last Days of Pompeir with it's cast of over 7,500 performers, 10000 animals and the largest scenery that any film has ever had.
 The story cohcerns . people sur- rounded by classic beauty and bar barrie grandeur and given to ex- travagant revelry. Essentially 1t is 8 story of confict-with life and death battles, gladiator against gladiator, man against beast, virtue against corruption, passion against compassion, and . flaming rnoun- tain against a sinful city.
 While it is the eruption of Vesu- vius and the earthquake, with it's attendant maelstronn of destruc- ton and panic, that brings the pie ture to 8 laundering finish that will not be easily forgotten, it is the human conflict that holds in- .terest at high tension through out.
 The most sensational conflicts are staged in the giant arena, re- produced authentically for the prc- duction. Here are thrillingly en- acted the tragic fates of the hosts of men who went to their destruc- tion so a pleasure-mad world could be amused. Here 1t is that 8 man, drunk with wealth and power, frantically and helplessly watches his own son go down fighting, a victim of the cruel butchery that the father has decreed for the sons of countless others.
 Preston Foster plays the man who made his way from black smiths forge to riches and power, only to repent in the end. As iIias- ter of the arena, he trafficked in human lives so that he could squeeze a mighty toll from de- bauched society.
 Other players are Alan Hale, Ba- sil Rathbone, John Wood, Louis Calhern, David Holt, Dorothy Wil- son and Wyrley Birch.
 AS an added attraction for the showing of "The Last Days of Porn- peii' special musical treat with Jimmy Colgan at the console of the mighty Poll organ and assisted by Frank Duke, the double-voiced ten- or. Added screen features will be Todd-KelIy comedy and a, travel talk and . colored cartoon comedy

'AuthOr Is No USe'

director and star rewrite 1t. I'll admit
that on occasions authors have been
known to turn out reputable work
But for the most part they are en-
tirely inconsequential.
"In proof of this I offer the num-
Der of motion pictures that have been
good merely because a star has been
able to put over the film. The author
actually had nothing to do with it
I am not referring to dialogue writer's
who occasionally have an idea.
'I personally know of an author
who sold the same idea five different
times to five different studios. Each
studio bought the thing, turned il
over to a director and g star who
managed to make something out of it
and not one of the five pictures in
the slightest way resembled any other
one. That proves what authors are
worth.
Personally, I am knee-deep in au-
thors every time 1 am about to make
a picture. But I merely kick them
gently but firmly to one side and pro-
ceed to make a picture which I know
is suitable to what I laughingly cal
my talents. The public seems to bt
satisfied, SO everybody Is happy"

And William Powell wasn't any
thing to set a house on fire when

to click, but he was trying too hard
Then the gay touch of Hollywood
animated the naturally joyous strain
which runs through him. The roll

Hollywood. And today there is none

less" is making kidding and gags pay
him rich dividends.
Myrna 10y was so afraid Of Holly
wood when she first entered pictures
she was afraid to say 'boo," afraid
to demonstrate over the possibility OF
being typed by doing too many ORR
entail roles. She was so intent on
making a success that she studied

CURED to her she was in danger OF
getting in rut. She began to give
parties, to go to them, to see q
greater range and variety of the in

She became less tense, developed the
lighter touch-until today she is rated
the fastest riding feminine personality
in Hollywood.

rs THE legendary gayety of Holly
wood one of its assets?
Are its parties, previews and
Il first nights" useful steps in the
building of star personalities?
Clarence Brown, veteran director
Is one of the many film colony ex-
perts who indorse this belief.
Thousands of clever youngsters
come here, desperately determined to
succeed" he said recently. They
are deadly serious about it all-so
serious that they try much too hard.
"And they often conceal their un-
derlying talent with this mental and
physical tenseness.
"You can't act if you are tense.
Good acting and complete relaxation
are synonymous.
Therefore, the gayety of Holly
wood breaks these too-solemn candi-
dates for stardom out of their shells,
kids them out of colorlessness into
true style. If Hollywood were less
gay it would not produce as many
really naturally arresting personali-
ties"
The facts present many instances
to SubStantiate this contention.
Elizabeth Allan came to Hollywood
two years ago, quiet, intense, des-
perately anxious to succeed She had
had only a comparatively small career
In England. She tried too hard at
first. Heads were shaken over some
of her first tests. Then she went in
for tennis. then for golf. tea, etc. She
made many new friends. Her serious
little face dropped its mask of ex-
treme concentration, it became re-
1axed, gay, smiling, and overnight
Elizabeth Allan climbed higher and
higher in the affections of the public

will open on Monday, July 20. for q
two weeks run. ITO Die at Dawn,

In April, 1895, "Trilby" opened at
the Garden Theater in New York to
the most expectant audience that ever
greeted play. The publication of
Du Maurier's novel earlier in the
year was the literary sensation Of
the age. Aalthough written by an
Englishman, it achieved its greatest
popularity in the United States. The
book was the first of the modern best
sellers"
A wave of ''Trilbyana" swept over
the Nation. Musical entertainments
featuring the songs that Trilby sang;
erudite literary papers on subjects such
as THE Story OF Trilby," "The Identity
of the Artists in Trilby," "Trilby as
Hypnotic Study" were held from
Baltimore to San Francisco. A Phila-
delphia ice cream manufacturer made
a special mold in the form of q
shapely left foot! A shoe house even
designed a special slipper and named
it THE Trilby."
