enough, but as a general rule, the
wires run only as far as the edge of
the set. Trust the ingenuity of Wil
liam de Mille to find a use for them.
In “Grumpy,” De Mine's production
featuring Theodore Roberts, May Mc
Avoy and Conrad Nagel, there are
several scenes in a long shot where
Roberts, in the title role, makes use
of a telephone. The scene of most
importance was very long and three
or four rehearsals failed to produce
the result Mr. De Mille desired.
Then it was that the idea of making
use of the telephone came to him. He
had the electricians connect the ex
tension with a second phone and
splice in a battery. Thu*; when Rob
erts lifted the receiver while half
through the scene. Do Mille gave him
I
further instructions over the tele- I
phone.
The idea was so novel it attracted I
several other directors to watch its !
use. The result was so (rood as to j
promise that telephones used in mo- j
tion pictures In the future may be as
real as the telephones in any Ameri- j
can home.
Hiers Finishes Second One.
Walter Hiers is rapidly finishing
his second picture, a comedy drama,
"Sixty Cents an Hour," directed by
Joseph Henabery, with Jacqueline Ho
gan featured in support.
Hiers' next picture will be an origi
nal by Walter Woods and it will be
directed by Rob Wagner. It will he
called “Fair Week.”

a comedy from the pen of Arthur Rich

ably as the author of "Not Bo Long Ago”
and "Ambush.” In it Miss Claire is Lucy
Warriner, h young, beautiful and fashion
able divorcee whom financial necessity has
brought to the brink of a desirable second*
matrimonial alliance. A -rich, though
rather crude, ^westerner turns out to be
the most likely candidate for this honor.
Fcgcr to marry the woman for whom he
haa developed a real infatuation, the gen
tleman Is halted when an over-shrewd
aunt hints to him that in his fiancee's
divorce suit there had been a suspicion
that Lucy herself had not been altogether
blameless. The latter, undaunted, sum
mons to, her defense none other than her
exhusband, who gallantly responds. The
