(Please write or print plainly.) Namo Address City State. lars a week in the chorus that I would, in a few years, be able to draw a thousand I suppose I would have been dazzled by the golden pinnacle. My life away from the studio is so simple as to be uninteresting. I do not care for society — that thing of teas and balls and dinners. My few friends I appreciate and love. I go to the opera when it is available, to lectures, to all the best pictures. I'm catholic in my tastes. When not working I often dedicate entire days to solitude. At home in a room with windows facing the mountains, I read and write and philosophize. And then evening comes with its cool fragrance of roses and orange blossoms in the moonlight. I put on walking shoes and a polo coat and go for an exhilarating hike with my dog. And this climb up the golden stairs has given me a philosophy of life that I can't state better than to quote Whittier's words : "Then give to the world the best you have, And the best will come to you. Give love, and love to your heart will flow, A strength in your utmost need ; Have faith, and a score of hearts will show Their faith in your word and deed."

Next thing we know Will Rogers will be wearing beauty cream and white collars. And Warren Kerrigan will get his face dirty. Aw, There's No Romance In Real Life ! In "Jack Straw," starring Robert Warwick, the hero is an archduke disguised as an iceman. During a lull in our attic activities we grasped at this straw hoping 'twould lead us to a wheeze. Therefore we investigated our own And our stenographer will demand chill bringer to ascertain if he per a decrease in salary ! — o — Answering An Ad. The exhibitor's ad for "Lifting Shadows" asked: "Girls, what would you do if you had a husband who was a drug-ridden shell of a man?" Myrtle, the ticket seller at "The Madlin," when approached by us on the subject, remarked: "Aw, you tell 'em ; my mouth is full of teeth !" And so, we answer for Myrtle in Myrtle's own peculiar language : "Aw, I'd bust the shell and let "the nut out for an airing!" — o — You Folks Puttin' Up Any Preserves This Year? If so, we call your attention to the cast of "Shore Acres." Tis a-busting with berries ! Seven of 'em ! Wonder they didn't retitle it "The Berry Patch." — o — (But We Really Don't Believe It!) An ad for "Bubbles" remarks: "Fun and laughter run riot until Dan Cupid takes a hand and stops the show !" There you are ! "Needles and pins, needles and" — go ahead and finish it. — o — Givem Air. Better take lotsa air with you when vou ooze forth to observe the Selig serial, "The Lost City." "Sensations are so crowded into this story that the spectators are hardly allowed to recover from -one gasp before another is forced upon them !" chance was a Lord Deliverus, or something. His name, Ave learned, was J. J. Sullivan, and his middle name was James. Yes, you've guessed his first one ! When we mentioned "disguise" to him he muttered "Dis guy's a nut !" glommed the bale of bills we had just slipped him for our daily coolness— and giddapped.

Goldwyn sued Ince because the latter's "Dangerous Hours" was, as to title, so close in point of resemblance to their "Dangerous Days" that the dear public would be deceived, confused, and exceedingly flabbergasted. Goldwyn based their claim on the fact that "Dangerous Days" was first. According to our geography — or whatever it is we figure with — twenty-four hours must be there before a day is here. But that's neither here nor there. Lotsa people saw both pictures and survived. Probably many others saw neither and are just as happy as ever. If half the dear public saw "Dangerous Days" and the other half "Dangerous Hours," do you imagine each half sat down and bawled because they hadn't seen what they didn't see ? Not on your life ! They simply went on a-wondering when the next Chapfilm would appear, and forgot all about the various and dangerous degrees of time. Didn't you, Public?
