DeMille, director general of the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation, will shortly begin filming the famous biblical play, "The Wanderers." Prominent members in the cast will be Gloria Swanson and Bebe Daniels. Fade-Outs Continued from page 35 A Squeezed Scenario. Here is what a trade paper did to Paramount's "The Love Burglar" — "The story concerns a young society idler who went to a tough saloon in search of his brother, and after taking his money away from him, sent him home." We adore brevity — but, Gosh ! — o — Try Again, Emma! Emma-Lindsay Scjuier, the "than whomest" of all screen interviewers, says that Fay Tincher would look like a gold mine in any costume. Emma, we've seen a lot of gold mines, and knowing Fay, we're betting your wrong. Gold mines, Emma, are sprawling, noisy, soily, unkempt and uncouth — and, in general, most unpretty ! Thoroughness Hooks Up With Godliness. Some years ago, when Sennett subsidized a pie foundry to supply his comedians with ammunition, we were deeply impressed with the prodigality of production. But Famous Players-Lasky have pulled a stunt that makes a picayune piker outa Mack. With the fact in mind that most of their pictures contain a weddingscene, and having become weary of constructing temporary chapel sets — they bought Christ Episcopal Church, Twelfth and Flower Sis., Los Anereles — iust to have it handy for the hitches ! — o — Why Editors of Movie Magazines Go Insane. (Bern? a few of the queer things that turn up in the daily grist of letters ) " — I'm going to call at your office as soon as I reach New York for you to get me a iob as an actress" " — Are Mary Pickford's curls her own ?" " — And please send me photoeraohs of Pearl White, Douglas Fairbanks, Wallace Reid, and the man who writes the Fade-Outs." " — I'd like you to get me a pass to a movie studio." " — Please send me the names and addresses of all the movie actors and actresses in the United States. " — Here's a scenario I wrote in twenty parts. I hope you can use it." " — The poem I have written has two hundred verses but I could easily add more to it. If you like it I will send it all to you. Here's how it starts off : O, sweet Theda Bara, pride of us all art thee ! We love thee and go to all thy pictures we can see ! We Wish We Were Foolishly Beautiful! Said Louise Glaum: "If I ever marry again, he will be a homely man!" We handed her one of our cards. Slowly tearing it up, she continued: "When I say 'homely,' I mean of that type which is so intelligently homely that one says, after a time, 'Isn't he a splendid looking man !' " That let us out. We're just plain homely! — o — Keeping The Ushers Busy. This from the program of a Chicago theater: "Ushers will see that patrons do not leave their feet in the aisles." Which, coming on top of the "Poppy" company's ad that: "our comedies will make 'em roll off their seats with mirth" — Leads us to believe That the ushing business will soon be picking up ! What Happened to Truth in Duluth. Do you believe in the transmigration of souls? If so, we can tell you the present abode of the souls of Ananias and Baron Munchausen. They are both reposing within the bosom of the manager of a Duluth, Minn., film theater. List to the peep of his publicity palaver in advertising "The Heart Of Humanity": "The Biggest Show On Earth! Ten Times Bigger Than "The Birth Of a Nation'! A Million Times More Massive Than 'Intolerance !' A Billion Dollar Show!" 'Tis fortunate this bird had probably but a Fourth Grade education. If he'd ever heard of such words as "quintillion," "decillion," etc., he would have murdered Truth entirely, instead of merely maiming her !
