. NOVIE HAKERS IN SEARCH FOR FACTS Tnsist on Real Backgrounds for Big Dramas By the Assoclated Press. Desire for authenticity in photo- play settings provides movie com- panies with world-wide travel. Only recently, London and the ancient village of Denham Bucks in England were exterior “sets” for the screen- ing of Hutchinson's “One Increasing Purpose.” Paris is the locale of “Seventh Heaven,” for which Direc- tor Frank Borzage has been seeking “locations” for his company. Among the screen folk, Monte Blue hopes to become a movie di- rector, Syd Chaplin desires to travel, Louise I"azenda wishes to bea great emotional actress and Jane Winton and Myrna Loy want to become great motion picture actresses. When Clara Bow appeared with & Chow dog the hair of which match- ed her flaming red locks in color, the combination was so appealing to other stars that a fad was started. Dogs, kittens and birds of colors maching the hair of their mistresses now are sought as pets. The age of a photoplay makes lit- tle difference to fans in the Bahama Islands, reports Charles Stallings, production manager of a picture be- ing made in the islands. He said he recently saw Kathleen Willlams in “The Man, the Girl and the Lion,” which was made “when Hollywood was a potato patch, Tom Mix an extra, and Charlie Chaplin was sing- ing in the English music halls.”” Times have changed since Tom Mix was chaperoning cows in Texas and Oklahoma. “When I was a cowpuncher, it took money to buy a girl a meal,” he sald, as he dined at the chuck wagon on location. “Now, when I'm able to buy a cafe, should I want it, couldn’t find a girl who would eat more than a slice of toast and a tomato! Seemingly, ideas on forms have changed, too.” Chester Conklin, comedian, is seeking to popularize pipe-smoking at banquets and other social gather- ing. At a recent banquet Conklin suggested to a group of friends that they retire during the after-dinner speeches for a smoke. TXeir plan was reveiled, and the toastmaster in- vited them to smoke pipes at the tables, “Hank,” an educated dog, Wwhich plays “Tob” in *“The Return of Peter Grimm,” had to be rehearsed several times so as not to bark when he saw the image of his master in the house when “Oom Peter Grimm" returns from beyond.

Castles go up in smoke at Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer’s Culver City studlo. Sets that once appeared as gay cafe scenes, a castle on the Rhine, and the “bed of roses” in “Three Weeks,” were burned as waste material in the furnace that heats the studio boilers. Gloria Swanson, John Barrymore and Buster Keaton, are completing their first independent productions. Miss Swanson is well advanced in her work on “Sunya,” at the New York studio. Barrymore has another month’s “shooting” scheduled on “The Beloved Rogue,” at Hollywood and Keaton is cutting and titling “The General,” also in Hollywood. Finding new and attractive titles for motion picture plays is becoming a difficult task, in view of the thou- sands of copyrighted stage and screen productions made yearly. The legal departments of the big film companies are kept busy searching motion picture records and the copy- right files in Washington to avoid duplicating a title. In addition to being original, motion picture titles must be short, as they are generally used in electric sign displays and electricity costs money. The Paramount studio property department was called upon to find a horse that would be an exact duplicate of a farm horse used in Thomas Meighan’s location work in Calgary, Alberta. A horse the same size and general color was finally located but a painter had to put a white spot on the animal's forehead and on one rear leg before it would answer as a substitute of the origin- nal, Russian boots, blouses, caps, and shawls will make their way into the styles of the film colonies, Count Ilya Tolstoy, who is in Hollywood, predicts. “The girls will even baggy Russian pants” says the Count. “These are made in bright colors and of silk in the majority of cases. The Russian blouse is already in vogue among the film stars and the picturesque Russian turbans should find much favo! wear the LOVE LETTERS BRING GRIEF TO CHARLOTTE (Continued From First Page) mother's body, so I began to read and shut out his words from my ears. Of course, when such things as the letter are introduced in the testi- mony, I just have-to go out. Noth- ing else will do. One of the best witnesses of the case was on the stand yesterday, Mr. Nixon, who said Mr. Soper had told him he saw Mrs. Hall and her two brothers in a car the night of the murder, a'though Mr. Soper denied on the stand that he had seen them. Mr. Nixon was very positive and he deserves a lot of credit because he came forward of his own accord without being subpoenaed by the state. A detective for the defense admitted that he talked to Mr. Soper during the noon recess before Mr. Soper had finished his testimony. I am sorry it got out that I re- ported to Senator Simpson that I had seen Mr. McCarter of the defense speak to a juror just before court opened. I don’t know that there was anything wrong about it but I thought I had better say something. It was probably condolences because the juror’s brother had just died. I suppose Senator Simpson doesn't consider it really serious, and he probably won’t bring it up. For many reasons I would hate to see a mis- trial and the whole thing gone over again. Somehow it didn't seem so bad when Aunt Marie Lee told today what she knew of the love of my mother for Mr. Hall. She spoke in a quiet, sincerpy ¥ay and I could tell that Aunt Marie had a deep respect for that love. Yes, she told how she had seen mother kiss Dr. Hall. That was in 1918. All those years they loved each other! Who can say that theirs was a fleeting fancy? And she told how mother said Dr. Hall planned to get a divorce s0 they could go away together. I believe Dr. Hall was just about ready to tell his wife when he was killed. Could it be that Mrs. Hall through all those years didn't realize that her husband's heart did not be- long to her? She is a strange wo- man if she didn’t know. My aunt said mother told her once that Mrs. Hall was not friendly to- wards her and that she thought it was because Minna Clark sald things about her. I wonder if Mrs. Hall would have glven her husband a divorce if he had asked her. I doubt it because I think Mrs. Hall's pride far sur- passes her other qualities. She sits day by day, listening to the story of her husband's love for another wo- man, but not yet has she shown any emotion.
