"Instead of regarding th number 1."! with the horror in which It i' umall held," sa.vs Mr, Brenon, "I would be lieve it to be m lucky rather than un lucky number, If I were u superstitious person." THOSE who aw the D W. F.nffith production of "Way Down Fast ' carried nwa ild impressions of tue play. The scene of the rescue of n girl from an ice ll e Lillian (iish and Richard Barthelmess were the plucrs was full of thrllN. Hut throughout the picture were other Interesting incidents and personalities The well chosen cast brought realitj to the si recti. Not the least Interesting wcie the ruralltes with which the stnr had most In to do They uero lpfii I.in Fastcis nml ct'innn of them weie from other parts of the good old I . S. A. than the New England States. One of these. Porter Strong, who hail tho role of Scth Holcolmb. was born out at St. Joe. Missouri. But his wide tago eipericnco made it possible for him to glvo reality to any character part he might assume. His crsatlltty is further nttested in "Dream Street." the latest creation of D. W. Griffith, which opens Monday at the Chestnut. Strong would not be recognized in this visualization of Thomas Burko China town stories, so distinctly different is the role. But Strong has been accustomed to playing a nrietj of parts. He used to be on the speaking stage and for n time too, he was utn the circuses, cutting up and making n nig nit. mis stage i career was largely with hilarious en-1 tertainers and he will be remembered for appearances In the companies of Mabel Hite. Murrnj and Mnck and Ward and Vokes. His screen career I begun with Blograph where Griffith I made film history in the early das of the photo-pla imlusfv, IT WAS a bu rinj for Mr Ilouck, wardrobe mi-tress at the Thomas II.

I.ips," the second lnre's Associated Producers' special, w hich comes to the Arcadia next week Espcclallv was she concerned about the satellites, for thej had neglected to tel! her to which sex the belonged. Anywnr the rostumes were forthcom ing and the glittering, bedazzling things shown forth In amazing candor in the big ballroom siene in which a high so ciety swimming parn is featured Mer maids, King Neptu.ie and attendants, pretty girls in the .nmrint and most ultra of bathing uit are levelled in the rcel of fun Virtually the whole fore? of the studio was on the lot watching when the scene was made A "penp ' orchestra played for three dajs and cerybod was one stepping and fox trotting.

Arriving at tho rocky nhore of the extreme point nn Long Island, tho spo cial generating set arrnnged on n five ton truck was xtartcd, nnd the effect of the brilliant beams of light playing over the storm-tossed waves upon the sturdy seamen, who handled their boats With marvelous skill, was caught in every detail b the camera. Kiigenc O'Brien took his place at the stern of one of the boats ami appenrod thorough! lit ease in the role of cox swain. He afterward asserted it was one of the most thoroughly exciting ex periences of hU career. A SLUM patch sprang up in tl art studio when .lustine .loh the Real- tinstone's lhc Plnjthing of Broadway, which will be soen at the Palace next week was being produced tine end of the building was gnen oer for interiors of lower K.ist Side tenement houses. The custom nf building one set at a time was not followed in this instance. The rapidity with whi'h one of these slum extciiors followed the other in the ac tion of the story and the comparatively small size of each set permitted the building of all of the sets at one time. The rooms, blenk nnd gns-lightedvxvere exact copies of interiors of the most congested district in the world, New fork's East Side. These dismal scenes were in decided contrast to the many sumptuous club and boudoir settings showing the gay world in which I.nln. the dancer, lneV her selfish life befoie she xvent down into the slums on a bet to "vamp" a brilliant doctor, xho was said to be so engrossei jn xcelfare work that ho. If an.- man nn earth, would fail to be lured by her charm. THE man who Is "captain of his soul" has naught to fear when en tering the political arena, but the man who submerges his own individuality for momentarv gain had best keep out of the political morass This is the lesson taught by J Barney Sherry's portrayal of "Henshaw" in Allen Iloliibar'n As sociated First National drnma-etetnal, "Man Woman Marriage." starring Dorothy Phillips, at the Victonn next week. As the niater mind of corrupt poli tics the man who plays safe through weaker characters Shcrrv gives an ex cellent idea of what happens in poli tics when electors fnil to take advan tage of te ballot after deep study of pojitical situations, nnd political ma chines Sherry's work is one of the outstanding features of this screen storx . though his role excites no sym pathy from the audience. Sherrv is known as one of the best "heawes" and character men of the screen and hns worked in such produc- 1 tions as "OixilizatioD," "Little Broth er of the Rich." "Breath of the Gods" nnd "The Rher's End." To 111 O SEE Rnscoe ("Fatty") Arbnekle almost any picture comedr is flgreenoie out to see Him in ins hiium Paramount picture.
