n her way to a place among film ar
tresfe. a place envied by millions of
girls and young-women.
A new lens for a mot on -picture
camera brought Miss lBv hor
chance. She was busy as usual, one
day. checking the action of a picture,
under the direction of Hugh Ford, as
tilt story was transferred from script
to film, nnd writing long daily reports
for her director. When the day's
"shooting" wns finished. George Fol

raid :
"Helen, put a little make-up on your
face and come over here in the corner
while I try out a new lens for my
camera."
Helen did a she wns asked and sev
eral hundred feet of film were run oft
Then she went back to her tvping ami
business of being n continuity clerk
one of those drab studio positions that
holds little glory but a lot of hard work
for those who fill them.
THK test was run in the projection
room before laboratory experts and
the lens was found to be an excellent
one. The film was clear nnd distinct.
"Where did you get the girl?" was
fhe only question that was shot at
Folsey when the lights of the projection
room were switched on. "She's n
ponder."
And all the lime little Miss Kay was

APOPULAK rumor has it thnt Mary
Plckford Is expecting another Jittlc
Mary, or maybe a llttlo Douglas, In
September. If "it's true. I think it's
wonderful. That such happiness should
come to one of such consistent nobility
of character a character made sweet
through adversity as well as through
success is only right.
Bebo Daniels has just finished "One
Wild Week," from the story by Fran
ces Harmer. Harrlng retakes, Miss
Daniel; is going to take a little rest.
She says she needs it.
They say Harold Lloyd Is a very
happy man now that bis old friendship
with her, for some time severed, has
been resinned. Miss Daniels is younger
lookingoff the screen than she is on.
She is very sophisticated, very non
chalant, yet wltlinl what is known as a
"good fellow." She seldom smiles, and
when she does, It Is the slowly dawning
hind. She inspires whole-hearted
friendships nnd whole-souled partisans.
Don't you think "Koblnson's Trous
seau" is a cuto name for n comedy?
That's what they call Lee Moran'fc
latest. It was written by H. C. Wit
wrr. whose works often Appear in our
monthly public prints.
The picture's just been 'finished, so
jou'H probably see It soon, Scott Dar
ling, who. I believe, is under contract
with Christie, was loaned to Universal
to put it into continuity. He's a smart.
young fellow and will do bigger things
one day.
Do you remember Edna Fcrber's
"Fauny Herself"? The wonderful pic
tt re she drew of the little town of
Winnebago in Wisconsin? Personally
I think for actunl Middle Western Ideal
color it gives "Main Street',' a run fo
its money not so morbid. 'Well, what
I'm trying to get at Is this: A camera

I met Milton Sills today. He's nicer,
to my mind, off than on. He's still at
work on Hetty Compson's picture, "At
the End of the World," being directed
b Penrhyn Stnnlaws. Cossou Fergu
son has finished Ills work in it nnd will
take a part in Frank O'Connor's new
picture, "A Virginia Courtship," by
Frank Prcsbrey, starring May Mac
Avoy. Wlille Mary Nash was playing at
VHOTOPI.AYS
The following theatres obtain their pictures through the
STANLEY Company of America, which is a guarantee of
early showing of the finest productions. Ask for the theatre
in your locality obtaining pictures through the Stanley
