So we're going to make our next issue a comedy number. In it you will find stories about two newcomers, one on Leon Errol, who. in the screen version of "Sally," repeated his successful stage characterization of the nobleman-waiter, and another on \Y. C. Fields, the famous vaudevillian who, after his hit on the musical-comedy stage, has made just as big a sensation on the screen, in D. W. Griffith's "Sally of the Sawdust." Johnny Hines, who will also be represented, is not so new to the screen, but as he has never before been exploited by any of the larger distributing organizations, he no doubt will be new to many fans. But comedians are not the only ones who will be considered. Ben Lyon tells just how this "career business" strikes him. Myrtle Gebhart has been watching Gloria Swanson since her return from France, and after seeing her on the lot and at parties, she had a heart-to-heart talk with Gloria, in which the famous star told our interviewer just how the new developments in her life have influenced her point of view — her feelings. Emma-Lindsay Squier will tell you about her observations concerning the movies while on a recent trip through Canada. There will be numerous other interviews and articles by Don Ryan. Dorothy Manners. Margaret Reid. and our other writers. We believe that it is to be one of the most varied and interesting numbers we have ever made up. And we hope that no reader will miss getting it.
