■THE MOVING PICTUEE WEEKLY 11 Interesting Features Promised By Harry Carey Star Will Appear In Several Appealing And Distinctly Human Dramas «|^EARTS UP!" the little drama of a big ranch, "a make-believe daddy" and "the old, told story" of love and "the" girl, in which Harry Carey is starring, is winning all kinds of popular favor. It is not to be wondered at, for its story is so appealing and Harry is so human, and, therefore, so much in his element, that popularity is a natural result. It will be a long time before "Hearts Up!" is out of date. Harry Carey, however, is busily working on his next release in which some delightful novelties are promised. It is an adaptation of a famous story, "Bruwer Jim's Baby," by Philip V. Mighels. It is being directed by Jacques Jaccard and in it Harry Carey will have notable support, prominent among whom will be the leading lady, Carol Halloway. Harry Carey is tremendously fond of children and he is happy over the fact that in this picture he will have an adorable little boy in the company. ,His name is Tommy Smith and he is the three year old son of William Smith, prominent newspaperman of Los Angeles. As this is Tommy's debut as an actor, he is making an auspicious ?tart indeed. "Pal", a remarkable dog in many ways, will also be a member of the cast, and Carey and Tommy and "Pal" are a familiar and happy-looking trio around the big west coast studios nowadays. Harini Carey, little Tommy Smith and "Pal" There are other stories now being adapted for the use of "Human Harry Carey" and the public can be assured of continued entertainment from his endearing and appealing art. Eva Gets Xkere E very Ti ime JF ever there was a wide-awake girl, it is Eva Novak. Which accounts for the fact that Eva is where she is to-day — a star and steadily progressing. Eva keeps in touch with ever3^hing that will help her art and career — athletics, dancing, modes, books and lots of other things. Eva read about the fashion designers' convention in Chicago the other day and immediately wired a friend of hers in the windy city. As a result Eva is the proud and envied possessor of a Parisian evening gown which took the prize at the convention. The creation is of rose colored brocaded silk, simply made. It is heavily brocaded in silver and hangs in straight, slender lines. Eva will proudly disport it in her next picture, the third of her starring vehicles, on which she is now busily working. None can blame her for. being proud of it, for it took an exceedingly wide-awake girl to make a unique "buy" like that. Eva's second picture "The Torrent" is a worthy successor to her first, "Wanted At Headquarters." Like the latter it is full of exciting suspense and can boast of exquisite photography. Stuart Paton again directed the lovely blonde star. The third picture, in which wide-awake Eva, will wear the prize gown, is of a different nature entirely, and deals with life in ultra-smart society. It is an adaptation from a well-known story by a famous woman writer. When the announcement was made that Universal was to star Eva Novak in five reel dramas, it created no end of interest. Eva was known principally as a comedienne and had not had much experience in parts of a more serious nature. But Eva justified the faith that Universal placed in the scope of her histrionic ability and scored a hit in "Wanted At Headquarters" and in "The Torrent" in both of which features her roles were seriously dramatic.
