After that, all they had to do was bank the money. The Manhattan Girl Irene Howley, the vivacious and charming little stage and screen actress, will be featured with Lionel Barrymore in "A Yellow Streak, " a five-part feature picture produced by the Columbia Pictures Corporation, which will be an early release on the Metro program. William Nigh, who directed the superb Columbia-Metro production, "Emmy of Stork's Nest," with Mary Miles Minter in the stellar role, is directing "A Yellow Streak." Miss Howley was born in Brooklyn and for several years was a headliner in vaudeville and known throughout the country as "The Manhattan Girl." She made her debut in motion pictures with the Reliance Company, and afterward was engaged by D. W. Griffith for the Biograph, where she remained two years. Rehearsing the "Flea Scene" The power of suggestion may be strong enough sometimes to really send your fingers foraging for an itching place. Pat O'Malley, of the Edison Company, vows that in the funny "flea scene" in"Gladiola, " they turned loose real fleas. Viola Dana brings in a kitten in one of the scenes, that is supposed to have fleas of a roving disposition. The rehearsal became so vivid that even the players began to look askance at Viola and the kitten and to move away from them with suspicious alacrity. ' ' That's got some pep to it, that scene, ' ' acknowledged the director afterward, when the participants had hastened away to remove their garments in a doubtful state of mind. "Sure!" said Viola heartily. "You see, to make it go well, I engaged a kitten with real fleas." Chewing the Rag Teddy had always patronized the motion picture shows and had never witnessed a performance of the spoken drama. One evening, however, some friends took him to see such a performance, and when telling his companions about it the next day, they asked him how he liked it as compared with the motion pictures, when he replied, "Well, it was probably all right, but I just couldn't get over hearing them actors chewing the rag all the time !"
