Griffith, Tom Meighan and several others, she needs Fifth Avenue to give her inspiration. Will Rogers will soon arrive in Culver City to begin work at the Hal Roach studio. His leading lady will be Marie Mosquini. Marie, in her backyard, has been raising a turkey tor the table for a long time, having taken him to her young affections when there was still an egg around him. Every time any person of great moment comes to her house to dinner. Marie takes the family ax and goes out to the slaughter, but never can get up courage for the dreadful deed. \\ ill Rogers has already been invited to a family dinner at the Mosquini manor-house and Marie is sharpening the old ax. Wanda Hawley who recently trekked off for Europe in a most mysterious manner, denying her identity at the passport office, is plaintiff at a divorce against Allen Burton Hawley who, she says, is the scion of a family of ancient and high degree, but who will not work. She says all he did was to sit around and ask her for money and criticise her personal appearance. Mr. Hawley says, why it positively isn't so and if he cared to tell all he knew ... Oh well. Jos. Schenk, the husband of Norma Talmadge, is either going into a grand financial smash or he is going to be about the biggest figure in the film business : the gambling is on the latter contingency. Schenk has recently bought a big interest in a syndicate controlling something over one hundred of the biggest movie theaters on the Coast : also he has purchased the monster United Studios. At the present time, this enormous plant is rented out by the unit plan to whoever wants to make pictures and many companies are housed there. Whether Schenk will continue this policy, or whether he intends to utilize the space for some ambitious photoplay plans of his own, is not yet clear. Among the announced ideas upon which he is working is a production of "Romeo and Juliet," with Norma as Juliet and Valentino as Romeo. Dorothy Phillips and Allen Holubar are the only couple I ever heard of who were -o happy they had to separate their busiactivities. Their friends say that they have decided to break up their business arrangement owing to the fact that they deferred to each other so much neither was hitting on all six cylinders. If you talked to either one, they handed the whole credit of everything to the other ; which was loving but not practical. Wherefore Holubar is going to start an independent producing company and Mi^s Phillips will star when she decides which several offers she wishes to accept. ;her they have worked in such picture~ a : "Man, Woman and Marr:; "The Heart of Humanity," "Hurricane's Gal," "The Right to Happiness," "Once to Every Woman." "A Soul for Sale," "Paid in Advance." Blanche Sweet has been living at a big dairy farm out in the country for several weeks on a cream diet. She has just returned home to get ready for "Tess of the I/Urbervilles," in which she is to star under the direction of her husband, Marshal Xtilan.
