Since then it has been plain sailing for the Ayres. He slipped into the best part in “All Quiet on the Western Front,” that pic- ture which has been the ambition of all the celluloid youths, because there are no women to take from their glory. And now he will be given the fea- tured role in & new Western story which will be an outstanding production of the late Spring. Ayres is a slim, dark chap, with a likable countenance and very direct eyes. Lon Chaney, busy with his first talkie 8t last, pauses long enough in produc- tion to admit that this form of celluloid has far more advantages than the silent pictures he championed so faithfully until recently. Chaney should know—he is making a story he once did in silence. He is using five voices, because he is a ven- triloquist in the tale. And when he is not actually before the “mike” himself he is busy supervising every tinlest de- tail of the work. A pallid, quiet man, with rare charm, he shakes hands briefly and says: “I don't believe in interviews, and I hate to be asked questions.” “Interviews are a bore and questions in bad taste,” said I. And we both laughed and proceeded | to have quite a nice little interview. Chaney tells me he practiced the ven- triloquist business in his car while driv- ing to work. He cannot practice it in the studio, because of the pressure of time, and it is not satisfactory at home. So if you want to be a ventriloquist and you drive your own car, go to work. An occasional glance in the mirror| will tell you if your lips are quiet, and | when you come to a p” or an “m” just | take a puff of the old cigarette to cover| the lapse. Lina Basquetts, very m harassed a’cflnl old davvil gossip in village 'h ascribes infant desertion to her, l Daily Cross-Word Puzzl ’ VIE PEOPLE MERRICK. tells the local public that she has merely allowed the Warners to take guardianship of her child, not to adopt her. There is the matter of $300,000 involved, and most any mother would like to see her infanta get that. The Warner dynasty keeps its fortune within the Warner name. The brothers are incorporated, so to speak, widows Warner receive incomes from a trust fund. Lina, the widow of Samuel ‘Warner, received $85 a week for her baby. About a year ago she married Feverell Marley, local cameraman. ‘Twenty-nine years ago Florenz Zieg- feld, now in Hollywood, was managing a strong man in a vaudeville act in this same sunshiny spot. It would never do to have the elite of moviedom tell what were their occu- pations 29 years ago. Most of them weren't that near to theatrical careers. ‘The ladies are both stars, and inclined to be a bit jealous, one of the other. It was a very hot day. Said one: “Hello, darling, how are you?” “Feeling languid, dear. This hot ‘weather gets me.” “Really, you poor dear! I simply thrive on it. In fact, I always feel simply glorious. I'm so sorry you're so seedy. Wish I could do something about it.” Said a bystander: a sword!” “Marmalade—on (Copyright, 1930.) " Critic of Love Assailed. Europeans are warmly dicussing the declaration that love is a plague and therefore unscientific, made by Dr. Paul Voivenel, a prominent Prench physcian, in his recent book, “La Maladie de I’ Armour.” His statement that “roman- tic love is a disease that never afflicted the human race until mpdern times,” is being challenged by those who point to the numerous famous lovers of an- | cient times. His further declaratidn that “poe rated feminine love- liness” until knights believed the oppo- site sex to be as advertised, also re- ceived the blasts of writers, artists and others who have been glorifying femi- nine charms. ts ex: (] mu?’ a1 B Né%$$ Qo e?\:fl\ DISHES - BY THEN WONWTY _“TAXE LONG & | D\G RIGRT N = “THERE SURE 'S PLENT™ TO PO N THAS PURCEZ SEEN FOOD SINCE T LEFT LONG ISLAND: AND THAT'S A BISCUIT FACTORY BUT You CAN'T SHeP 1IN A SMoKesSTACK! £l JF - *nd| Buo FISHER The Heart | Is Where the Nose Is. ‘1 ot ey KENKLING the Rescue!
