"ME FOR THE MULE,"

Mutual Player Says No Auto
mobile for Him Other
Photoplay Notes
By the Photoplay Editor
Every moving. picture star In the film
world drives a W-horscpower racing car
of low, rakish design. If you nro to be
lieve the numerous stories sent broad
cast telling of their narrow escapes whilo
driving their latest model through con
gested traffic. It Is always n car of high
cost nnd great speed that the film favor
ite owns, not a small, comfortable car
built for pleasant motor trips.
It would seem that the motion picture
Industry existed merely for tho purposo
of keeping the automobile manufacturers
busy. Agents for nutos are supposed to
flock nround studios thicker than small
boys around a big lcnguc pitcher during
a world's series.
However, there Is one moving-picture
star who will have nothing to do with
automobiles. This Iconoclast Is no other
than Sydney Mason, stnr In the Mutual
Mastcrplctures, De Luxo Edition, which
are ptoduccd by the Oatimont Company.
Ho has purchased a Jaunting car and a
ilocuo white mule, which he nonchnlnntiy
drives through the motor-lined streets of
Jacksonville, Fla., undisturbed by tho
taunts of his friends
"No automobiles fot me," snyB the
Gaumont (Mutual) stnr, ns this Is solid
comfort, nnd 1 am not worried nbout tho
high cost of gasoline. "Old Ironsides"
runs on one speed, but I have no tiro
troubles and the carburetor never gets
clogged."
William Collier has nearly completed
his Mack Bennett comedy. "Getting Mar

time to a new flvc-reel Kay-Hee fcaturo

Incc.
Three distinct parts of tho United
Stntcs. In ns many different directions,
wero used for the locnles In the produc
tion of "A Corner In Cotton," a forth
coming Metro feature produced by tho
Quality Picture Corporation. Tho first
scenes wero photogrnphed In California,
tho Interior mado In Now York, nnd tho
linal scenes made In nnd near Savannah,
Georgia. Marguerite Snow has tho stellar
rolo in this production.
Alma Hnnlon, who Is working In the
William Fox production, "Gold and tho
Woman," threatens to create a shortngo
In pennies If her present plans develop.
About a month ago Miss Hnnlon mndo
up her mind to save every penny that
came to her In change and provided her
self with a neat little box, thinking It
would bold all the pennies she had thought
sho would collect In a car's time. Her sur
prise was great when, after sho had been
saving for a week, tho box wns overflow
ing, nnd having 247 pennies to her creo.lt,
nnd the collecting of tho insignificant cent
became a fascinating pursuit. Miss Han
Ion found that she averaged between 200
nnd 2M pennies every week. Becoming
possessed of n number of money wrap
pers, she now puts them away In a small
safe, requisitioned from her father. Sho
has determined to let them nccumulato
until sho can have them sent to tho bank
nnd receive n nice, crisp bill with the
numerals in tho corner reading 100.
During tho making of a scene in the
new World Mm corporation's produc
tion, "The Hand of TcrU," starring House
I'oters, under the direction of Maurlco
Toumeur, tho director had chosen for a
character part nn old nctor, who, while
a flno artist was unused to tho terminol
ogy of tho studio. He was also of Hi
bernian descent und pugnacious. Aftor
n hnrd morning's work In the unaccus
tomed sunouudlngs, the Thespian's tem
per had ilson to a boiling point. Unnlly,
Mr. Toumour shouted: "Fight tho Cam

SCALE OP KISSES MEASURED
BY FEET IN FILM WORLD
Measurements Vary From Five-sixteenths for
Mother-in-laws to Sixty for the Extreme
Vampire Variety
In renl life kisses are measured by their
slncetlty or lack ot It; it Is rarely pos
sible to obscrvo them, and when It Is
possible one usually looks away, from a.
sense of delicacy.
In tho movies kisses are measured by
feet. It Is alwnys possible to obseivc
them, nnd one never looks awny. The
measurements vary from live-sixteenths
of n foot to CO feet. The five-sixteenths
of a loot Is for mothers-lnlaw. Tho CO
feet nro the extreme vampire variety.
Iloughly speaking, the billions of miles
of film that unwind dally for tho benefit
of America lu her hours of recreation
can bo calculated on the basis ot n foot
a. second. That Is. for every second of
nctlon portrayed n foot of film Is used.
Tho crank that moves the film really
goes faster than that; perhaps It would
bo more accurate to say one foot to every
thrce-qunrtcrs of a second; call it a
"counted second," for people always
count seconds too rapidly. They don't
rcallzo how long a second can be. When
It comes to n kiss-second (or foot) there
may be nn cteinlty lived through In that
atom of time, nn oxperlcnco to bo remem
bered for it lifetime.
In the movies there aro all sorts of
kisses humorous kisses. Insincere, Judas
kisses, short, long and mediocre ones,
stolen kisses, very serious sincere ones,
nnd tho "fudenway" kind at tho end of
tho story when the lovers melt away Into
the forever-nnd-ever nt the end ot tho
film as If they Intended never to stop.
FIRST AID PREVENTS SUICIDE

ltcjolned 'he professor of Get man: "The
