ROSllN TOli n (0 . 1299 McAlhsta Sl, SAN FRANCISCO. TAl. For centuries sages have sought the secret of successful matrimony. It remained for Cecil De Mille to give it away. It seems to be up to the wife : A'f»rr cniwy )oiir huthand white he is shaving. If all better halves followed this rule, all homes would be happy — and then what would Mr. De Mille do for a living? It Ttw inconsiderate of Gloria Swanson to insist upon Tom Meighan buttoning her up the back at this crucial moment, wasn t it? WE should like to know — why all of David Wark Griffilh's brightest stars: Lillian Gish, Bobby Harron, and eventually Dick Barthelmess are branching out for themselves? In the new Harron pictures to be released by Metro, D. \V. will have a supervising power; but his stellar blonde who was never a star while she worked with him — Lillian — who will direct her? .^nd who will Griffith find to take her place? Lillian is said to have tired of seeing her name always in the supporting cast, although exhibitors all over the country were fond of billing her above the production, much to the displeasure of Mr. Griffith's business office. It is rumored, too, that the younger Gish, Dorothy, is cliafing at the Griffith reins and soon will leave the camp. And why did Thomas Ince separate those heavenly twins of comedy, Douglas McLean and Doris May, just when everyone was beginning to like them? GL0R1.\, Gloria— who has Gloria? This is one of the leading questions in filmdom today. Miss Swanson, who first became famous for her bizarre oriental headdresses and costumes in Cecil DeMille's domestic dramas, is now in retirement as Mrs. Herbert K. Somborn, wife of the president of Equity Pictures. But Paramount-.Artcra ft ays it has Gloria tied up in contracts until January i, lo:,;, while Gloria's husband says Gloria's contract is up December 1020. Gloria meanwhile, as has been noted before, is in private life awaiting a most interesting domestic event. BORN to Mr. and Mrs. Tom Forman, on May 4, a son. Tom, formerly a Icadiim man of high visibility, turned scenario writer and then directt-r for Lasky. To Mr. and Mrs. Robert McKim, also on May 4. a daughter. M(Kim is one of the best — or worst, depcndini: upon your viewpoint — villains in relluloirl, while his wife, Dorcas Matthews, is well known as an actress. MR. AND MRS. SHLLDON LEWIS have deserted the flicker drama for the varieties. Lest you forget. Mrs. Lewis is professionally know n as \ irginia Pearson. THE latest and wildest rumor is that Madame Olga Petrova will go to the Orient next September to make a picture in which she will have the cooperation of the Chinese government. BEG your pardon; the latest wild rumor is that former President William Howard Taft is the head of a new film syndicate, which will film patriotic features. Mr. Taft will be remembered as the rotund sientlenian who at one time figured so large ly in the news-reels. CECIL B. DeMILLE will continue to sive hectic advice to married folks via the Paramount -.\rtcraft screens for five more years. They say he could have gone with almost any other company. But who wouldn't rather be a director-general of one larce concern than merely an associated director or producer or something? TULIEX JOSEPHSOX. whose reliable J remingwood has spelled out many a clever scenario of small-town but not sm.illtime life for Charlie Ray, has left Ince for Famous Players. Josephson it was who received the accolade from this magazine, which hailed him as "the New Write Hope " IT is quite likely that Madge Kennedy will leave the Goldwyn Company at the end of her present contract, thereby following in the footsteps of Pauline Frederick arii! Geraldine Farrar. Samuel Goldwyn say^ that while he was in Paris he engaged a new French star, a lovely iiirl, nineteen year* old, who has had some experience in Fri'ndi productions. But he won't tell anyone h< r name. Possibly he is learning to pronoumt it. Erory adi'FrllM.'m.Mit In mOTOPLAY MAGAZI.vr Is niarwilwa.
