'HERE have been a number of “‘parade” pictures on the screen, and now Paul Terry has given his animals of the Pathe Aesop's Film Fables a *parade’ movie of their own. His keen wit has nnmed his an|~ mated cartoon “The Lif le."" Unlike “The Big Parade, ‘The Little Parade” is not a war picture, but a war on old man gloom, for it is re- plete with healthy laughs. Terry has Just completed a- cartoon movie with the name “Her Ben.” Only one guess is needed as to the source of inspira- tion. Charles Rogers, one of the Para- mount junior stars, has been cast for a featured role in W. C. Fields’ “So’s Your Old Man.” AMUSEMENTS. Don't Write Scenarios! FOUR out of five have the urge to ‘write scenarios! So claims Clarence Brown, Holly- wood producer-director, who says that ninety-nine hundredths of his mall consists of “original” stories written by_picture fans who belleve that “writing for the movies” is child’s play. “It is a waste of time for the amateur to try to write screen sto- ries,” he says. “Not one in a hun- dred thousand sent to the studios has the least semblance of originality, and few stand a chance of being read. “The originals that are being used by the producers are those written by persons in the industry who are fa- miliar with the peculiar technique of screen writing. “A published story has by far the greatest chance of getting recognition from the movie makers,” he says. “But the amateur’s script has none.” Friendly Enemies. 'HE technical experts in Constance ‘Talmadge’s picture, “The Duchess of Buffalo,” could form a League of Nations Club, for they aome from all over the world. Among them are H. B. Boswell, assistant director, a lieu- tenant in the British army before the war, and a captain and later a major in the expeditionary force during the conflict; D. F. Cook, second assistant director, a former officer in the Ger- man navy; Nicholas Kobllansky, ex- pert on Russian detail, an officer in the Czar’s armies until the revolution; Oliver March, chief cinematographer, a member of the photographic division of the Signal Corps of the American Army during the war; Willlam Cam- eron Menzies, art director, wartime officer in the American Army and later attached to the Royal Flying Corps on the British front; Pat Drew, chief electriclan, who went ‘“over there” with the American infantry; and Phillip D’'Esco, master of prop- erties, former officer in the Rouman- fan arm: WEEK DAYS PERFORMANGES CONTINUOUS 1TAM. 10 11P.M. you until you have s e the complate Lon Chaney lack Mike Silva” in “Outside the INTERNATIONAL NEWS OTHER SUBSIDARIES —DIVERTISSENENTS— ESTHER CUTCHIN Ampico Recording Planist In Person SHEILA BLAINE&CO.

Early in May, while getting ready to do a South American saloon se- quence in Thomas picture, “Tin Gods,” Mr. Dwan picked out a likely-] looklnz ‘bandit from among his minor players, and told him that within a few days he would want him to sit on a stool at a roulette table, that Mr. Meighan would push him over backwards, and that as he fell he should register ex- treme anger and pull a gun on Mr. Meighan. The player listened with great at- tention. A few minutes later he asked the prop department for a gun. That afternoon an electrician walk- ing across a dark, unused set was startled when a roughneck leaped at him with drawn gun and shouted: “I'll get you for that.” The elec- triclan made a flying leap behind the wall of the adjoining set. Later, sev- eral carpenters went lhmugh the same experience. By ‘the middle of the next day other players were peek- ing around corners to watch the solo rehearsals. This went on for three days. On the fourth morning Mr. Dwan called his man and told him the time had come, But the young artist was so nervous he pulled the gun hefore Meighan could reach toward him. On the sec- ond try he sprawled over backwards landed on his elbows and forgot the gun, and after other futile attempts Dwan was compelled to call in another player, less anxious.
