\Vinifred Westover has gone to Sweden to play in pictures there. Wouldn t it be nice if the Swedish Biograph would rename her Signe or Solveig? It seems a pity for a girl with a face like a Swedish sunrise not to have one of those fine old Scandinavian names.
QUEEN jNIARIE of Roumania had about made up her mind to appear in motion pictures when she decided that $50,000 for one production and ten per cent of the profits wasn't enough money. And so she held out for a raise. However, you can see she has the makings of a star.
WALLACE MacDONALD, popular young juvenile, was accosted by a second-hand clothes man the other day.
"Have you any use for your old clothes?'' he asked.

WILLIAM WALLACE REID, JR., received an automobile-coaster for a recent birthday. "Bill" was elated and promptly took it to the front walk of the Reid home in Hollywood, to try it out. Five minutes later he came running into the house.

IT has always seemed to us that the star of any George Bernard Shaw play, in screen translation, would be the caption writer. All of the epigrammatic Irishman's works are soon to be seen in celluloid. We can't help wondering if the producer who bought the rights has ever read the plays.
LOS .■\NC.ELES has been for some days in the grip of a "No Parking" law, which prohibits parking automobiles on any important down town streets between the hours of eleven and six. Protests from all sections are filling the air and none more vigorous than those from the motion picture lots, where stars and the purchasing and publicity departments have united in a waU. If the ordinance is not repealed, the Hollywood Board of Trade, which recently issued a statement to the effect that the picture industry had tripled its population, business and values, can triple asqin, since many of the activities that hitherto have been taken to the center of the big city will move out to Hollywood, where you can park your bus without paying a large fine.
