MARY PICKFORD
GOES SLUMMING
FOR SUNNY ITALY
How Star and Producer of
"Poor Little Peppina" Hunted
Actors and Atmosphere
Many aro tho "alummlns" parties that
find their way Into tho Intricate highways
nnd byways thnt border upon ICast Hous
ton street, N'cw York, In search of "real
Italian atmosphere." but there was one
little excursion Into this section of tho
city not so lonK ago that had a far dif
ferent objoct In vlow.
If one could have lifted the heavy white
veil that completely hid ono face from
View, ho would have beheld the features
of Mary Plckford. Another mombcr of
tho party wnn Sidney Olcott, who has
traveled nil over Kuropo and tho Orient
for the purpose of getting proper Atmos
phere In tho motion pictures which aro
produced under his direction.
Bo tho object of this expedition was the
real Italian atmosphere. They were In
search of typical Latins, not for tho pur
pose of focussing them with a lorgnette
nnd remarking "How Interesting," but
for the very practical purposo of enlist
Ins their services In the production of tho
Famous Players-Paramount, "Poor Llttl
Peppina," In which Mary Plckford will bo
seen In the leading role all next week at
tho Stanley Theatre.
A third member of the party was Oscar
Oravlna, ono of tho best-known Italian
actors In this country, whom the director
met when In Italy nnd Induced to assist
htm In tho assembling of various types
for tho mob scenes In tho picture. Qra
vlna himself plays tho villain In the story,
and It wns with his assistance that n long
Hat of his countrymen was compiled from
which the director was to chooso those
who met with his approval.
The plan of operation was very simple
Tho automobllo In which the party had
made the trip from tho studio of tho
Famous Players Film Company would
Btop In front of the address of one of tho
prospects, and whllo Gravlna called upon
his friend, Olcott looked him over from
tht- depths of the tonneau. In accordance
with Italian custom, tho host came out
on tho sidewalk to converso with Oravlna,
thus giving the director nmplo opportu
nity to "size him up" If the man met
with approval, Olcott coughed, and then
Oravlna sounded his host upon tho sub
ject of bocomlng a Him uctor. Terms be
ing arranged, he wns gvn a card telling
film to report nt the studio at D the next
' morning, dressed In laborer's clothes.
When tho list had been completed, tho
party turned to tho task of selecting some
of the special features of the "atmos
phere " No Italian scene could bo prop
erly staged without spaghetti venders,
pushcart merchants, wine shops and other
details which add the llavor of ronllty to
tho scene. Accordingly the streets were
thoroughly searched for tho mo-t strik
ing of these types, whoso services were
ltkowlsc enlisted, but with the stipula
tion that they bring their own "props"
that Is, their respective spaghetti cooking
utensils and their heavily laden push
carts. Meanwhile, tho great studio Itself had
been turned Into a typical Italian street
under the direction of Mr. Olcott, who did
not hesitate to call Into consultation
Gravlna, Antonio Maiori, Krncst Tortl,
Krnnccsca Gucrra. N'. CVrvl nnd other
well-known Itnllan nctor.s who play Im
portant parts In support of Miss Plckford.
Tho scenic urtists spent many hours
painting wclid and iuaHl-unlutellgbIc
words upon the sides jr stone buildings
after the manner of the Italian, among
which are conspicuous Banc, Paste Ali
mentnrl. Vino u LIquorl, Ttiiincchl, Con

A.RTIST TO ACTOR TO ARTIST LEO CARRILLO '
Leo Carrlllo, who plays Slgnor Monti In
"Twin Beds," Is mildly pleased when you
tell him he Is a very clever actor, but
If you say to him that his drawings are
wonderful and that when he walked out
of a newspaper artroom the world was
the loser, he will weep right on your
shoulder, buy you two tickets for the
show and beg you to be his guest at din
ner. For, ten years ago, Mr. Carrlllo was
a newspaper sketch artist employed by
tho San Francisco Examiner. His spe
cialties were murders and fires. Ho It
wa who drew the diagram of the shoot
ing; with "X" showing where the un
known assassin stood when the fatal shot
was fired, and the dots " "mark the
route traveled by the dastardly wretch
In making good his escape. Every time
Leo went out on an assignment he not
only come back with the sketch, but also
with thrilling Impersonations of the dead
man's brother or wife or uncle, no matter
whether they talked Chinese, Italian,
Spanish, Greek or Choctaw.
Ban Francisco newspapermen still re
call that Mr. Carlllo once gave such a

SEE MOVIES YEARLY
SAYS WM. DE MILLE
William C. DeMllle, the, noted dramatist
who wroto "Warrens of Virginia," "Tho
Woman" and other plays for David
Bclasco, Is devoting himself cxclushely nt
present to writing for tho motlon-plcturo
screen. He linn achieved signal success In
this field of literature, (is ho calls it. Ho
declares that tho great Inspiration which
comes to writers for motion pictures is
in the knowledge of the size of their
great audience.
"In tho year t91fi there were roughly
L000,000,000 paid admissions to the mov
ing plctura theatres of tho United Stntes,"
said Mr. Dc.Mllle recently when he was
Interviewed at tho studios of the I.asky
company. "This means an average at
tendance of 29 tlitfes per year for every
man, woman and child In tho country or
once a week for half tho population of the
country. Figures like these Imply a great
responsibility on tho pnrt of those who
suppl) I his tromendous demand, and men
ore now entering tho Held who are by
training nnd artistry uualilled to accept
tho responsibility.
"As the new art of the phntndratna
develops, It will differentiate Itself more
and more from tho "Vpeakle.s," as certain
zealous partisans call the older art. Dur
ing the last year the photoplay has been

them It will, from now on, move along Its
own line of development, and tho photo
play of the future will bn even less like
tho drama than the phntoplas' of the
past. The photoplay also Is too big to bo
dominated by a Hmall group of men as tho
theatre baa been. In Its development it
will reflect more truly than the drama
tho Ideals of the muss, because the photo
drama Is not subject to local opinion; It
needs no Broadway verdict, and Is quite
Independent of the opinion of New York,
the least American of any city In Amer
ica." I
realistic Impersonation of a bull he had
seen In a bull fight In Mexico thut ho
smashed seven desks, two windows, a
glass door and nine bottles of Ink, be
sides goring the nrt editor. A staff pho
tographer finally had the presence of
mind to pinion him with a lead pencil
and tell him to act like a porterhouso
steak.
One day while the accomplished Mr.
Carrlllo was entertnlnlng the other men
In the art room a group of visitors to the
newspaper ofllce stood In the corner
listening. After Mr. Carrlllo had finished
telling how a Chinese highbinder had
passed the time of day to an Irish police
man for kicking a Hungarian peddler eat
ing goulash In a Greek restaurant, with
graphic Imitations of tho Chinaman, the
Irishman, the Hungarian, the goulash
and the Greek restaurant, one of the s
Itors stepped up to him and, laying hs
hand on his shoulder, said, "I want you,
young feller. Come with mo!"
"What have I done, Mr. Olllcer?"
gasped Mr. Carlllo, tumlus nice and
white. "Where do you want to take me?
But I won't walk; you've got to call tho
wagon."
"I want you, my boy," said the visitor,
who happened to be Martin Beck, one of
vaudovlllo's overlords, "to come with me
over to tho Orpheum and do u 20-mluute
monologue. the same kind of chatter you
were umusing your friend3 with Juat now.
You havo the makings of a audoille
he&dllner. An act has fa)Ien down at

Mr. Caiillo Uro40 and
followed his captor.

'LITTLE ELSIE" NOW
"MISS JANIS"
Elsln Jauls, comedienne and Iniporsmia
'or oi stage celebrities. Man returned to
vaudeville, and Is billed to appear at 15 F
Keltll 8 Theatre next WCCk. MlhS JnlllR
'"""j"; tht' career in vaudeville, and her
miii. uuiiuriiiui eimiiKcmcui in vnimeviiio
was made on the stage of Keith's HIJou
Theatre on 8th stieet many yeais ago.
Then Miss Janls wns known as "Little
Elsie," and she ns lieialiled as the most
wonderful of child artists. When Miss
Janls "grew up" her talent led her to
the musical coined stage.
Hut while she has plajoct character
roles of various kinds, her principal suc
cesses have been ci edited to her ability
to mimic and Impel soiiate other stage
celebrities. .Not only originality In lneihnd
I but ability to aasume the personalities,
peculiarities and pliv .-iic-:il attribute of any
nriisi sue impersonates, lias made Miss
Janls distinctive In her class. Where other
Impersonators select only rertnln urIHts
to Imitate, Miss Junls picks them at un
ilom. She can slnfr, dnnce, play a comedy
role with cquul sureness as she does a
serious one, and sho has ndded to her
other accomplishments both Ice and
roller-skating, which she has mastered to
tho degree of a professional. Miss Janls'
stay in vaudeville Is only limited, for Mie
has already started to read several manu
scripts of musical shows In which she Is
wanted as the star by the producers.
EATON SEES "THE
CINDERELLA MAN"
Continued from I'axe One
pitfalls. Sometimes a touch of too crude
actuality tukes us out a little from tho
Idyllic atmosphere and causes confusion
In our mood. Sometimes his treatment
of the Idjl lacks a certain whimsicality,
a certain delicacy of touch, which causes
us to taste too much biigar In the dish.
Still, In all falrnc-a It must bo said that
Mr. Carpenter has achieved with no little
success what he set out to do. Some
people may not care for what ho set out
to do. but it Isn't primarily the eiitic's
Job to question that but only tho success
with which the object Is attained. Those
who do not like idyls, who object to
naive and sentimental love who would
havo realism and problems nnd "prob
ability," will not cure for 'The Cin
derella Man." But such people are not
so numerous, perhaps, as the other kind.
And some of us like both realism und
fairy tales. Because a critic likes "The
ravers," it doesn't inevitably follow
that he cannot enjoy "Peter Pan."
As we have Intimated, the outstanding
performance In "Tho Cinderella Man" Is
that of Shelley Hull In tho title role.
Ho plays tho character of the young
poet In a vein of delightful whimsicality;
he keep him a gentleman to his linger
tips; lie denotes with sure touches the
prldo nnd the sincerity of the youth, and
the growth Of lovo for tho little irirl who
comes to him like u. fairy godmother over
tho roof Harrlnif tho fact that Mr, Hull
is developing a dangerous trick of meas
ured overemphasis on certain words that
full at tho end of a breath-phrase (a
trick E, H. Sothorn h8 fallen Into), his
speech from the technical vlawpolnt Is
excellent, and Is Improving all tho time.
Alieady b can color his tones a little
and should learn to color them still more
He can put Into them tho depth of hon
est passion and the light quality of ban
ter. He is an uctor to watch,
Tho other performance In the play
which gives most pleasure Is that of
Frank Bacon, a. eound, well-schooled
actor. In the role of the old valet. Prim
rose. Mr Bacon does not have to speak
a dozen words before the entire audience
Instinctively feels his skill and authority.
Indeed, ho does not) have to speak at
all, but only to come on the stage. The
proof that authority in acting comes only
with practice is well Illustrated her.
The Ingenue role of the poor llttlo rich
girl 1 rather prettily played by Miss
Phoebe Foster- She h dainty youth
to oXtor In lUiu, onmtlraes, of technical
skill. But In certain role that always
answers ibe purpose, with an audience.
