Directors es- cape the terrible supervision of the large studios and are able to show what they really have. Cutting out of this form of motion picture m: g removes a fer- tile field for genius discovery from pro- ducers’ ken. I hear from world travelers returned to the movie center that the talkie has its nose out of joint in Central and Southern Europe; that Prance is indif- ferent to them; that there are but two talkies being shown in Vienna theaters where once there were 20 or tha one of them is Paul Whiteman's “King of Jazz” and the other is a Buster It's & grand Keaton comedy; and that Hollywood, once king of the earth, so far as mar- keting its product is concerned, has cut its own nose off to spite its face when it turned motion pictures into talkies. And, on the other hand, my friends tell me that the stage is come into its own once again al . In the see- saw of nature, this is inevitable. De- pression for one means renaissance for the other. . As my mogul friend says, “It's jake for the days.” (Copyright, 1930 by North American News- Allia: Canadian Fox Breeding., ‘The remarkable growth of the silver fox industry is indicated by the fig- ures of the last four years~taken from Canadian live stock records of silver fox pups: 1926, 32,355; 1927, 39,767; 1928, 51,624; 1929, 70,883. During the last two decades of the | nineteenth century, before foxes were raised in captivity, it has been esti- mated that between 2,000 and 3,000 silver fox pelts were placed on the market annually. For the last two years more than 100,000 silver fox pelts have been absorbed each year by the , and, as the number of cap- tured wild animals has not increased, it is estimated that wild pelts comprise only about 2,000 of this number. This estimate is confirmed by the fact that] at the different fur auctions pelts of wild foxes formed less than 2 per eent of the total offerings. 5. Russian village community, . Pull-fro'n. .
