Close Up (Oct 1920 - Aug 1923)

14 SCREENING WHERE THE SCREENING’S GOOD Broadsides By ARGUS Treating a girl is all right, but the best way to save money is to only treat her nice. This discovery was made by George Kuwa. * >K * When a fellow starts to tell his girl about the Einstein theory, then you know they will probably be married — but not together. Virginia Valli just had to do this one. * * * Dale Fuller says that she has never been in coma, but she does like period furniture. * * * Diary of a Male Vamp. Exposed by Henry J. Hebert. Tomorrow I’m playing with Alice. She does like bridge so much! * * * Reginald Barker claims that blowing bubbles is a pleasant pastime, just so you don’t make them too large. * * * Women should be great chess players, because they can play with thirtyseven men at one time. Lloyd Ingraham knows his game all right. * * * It’s terrible for a girl to have her eye on a car, and then have it move away. George McDaniel does another ditty. * * * Al Santel may wield megaphone over “Lights Out.” News item. This will probably be a very dark picture. * * * Sisters in charge of Sennett wardrobe— another news item. First time we knew they had one down there. You never see any of the girls wear ing much in the pictures, murmurs Ruth Willard. * * * Some one suggested that James Cruze change the name of his latest production, “Hollywood,” to “The Milky Way.” Probably because the “cream” of the profession have been cast in Hollywood, interpolates Jimmie Adams. Some one says that D. W. Griffith was the father of “The Birth of a Nation.” What is this, another Eddie Foy gag? * * * Mabel Normand recently posed as a King Tut maiden. Gee, Mabel, we’d like to see you in both of those beads. * * * Miss Norris Johnson says that dancing is only hugging set to music. All right, let’s have a little music. “How to Get a Husband,” by Lige Conley. * * * The best way to get a husband is to let him think he knows it all. No, Rex Ingram did not write this. * * * Louis Gasnier is making “Daughters of the Rich.” Oh, the “poor” things. * * * “Where the Pavement Ends” the dirt begins. 1924 version written by a former scandal writer. Ray La Verne tells another one: Sunday morning in Hollywood finds many husband out cutting the front lawns. “Well, we might say, “the mower the merrier.” * * * Philo McCollough reports another one: The Blossoms of spring are coming in Blooming Scents of Four Flowers Scotch. The young men who have money to burn seldom suffer with the heat. Bertram Bracken is responsible for this. * * * Pauline Curley tried combing her hair with an egg beater the other morning and the effect was sort of scrambled. * * * Wallace Worsley is walking stoopshouldered from making “The Hunchback of Notre Dame.” No, he hasn’t been visiting cellars. * * * This is from the wit factory of Eddie Cline: We’ve had Main Street and Spring Street. Why have we neglected Grand, or overlooked Broadway, which might make a thoroughfair story? * * * Why is it that so many men who failed to appreciate SERVICE in the war, insist on service at Tait’s Coffee Shop? This inquiry from Irving Cummings. Louise Fazenda earned her first dollar when eight years old when she won first prize in a children’s essay contest offered by a Los Angeles newspaper. George O’Hara will stage his fight scenes the first of next week in “Judy’s Punch” when he will meet Larry McGrath. 217 W. Si^th St. 751 S.
