Run down at lhe heel, he lives from day to day, a man afraid of his wife and an Imbiber uf "mountain dew.” The wife, who Is a typical hill woman proves far more dangerous than the male of the species.

V_-----* Metro has selected a new picture for Viola Dana to make, In the Nina Wilcox Putnam rtory, "The Beauty Prize," which appeared some time ago in th* Saturday Evening Post. .Teannle Macpherson'e hnhby is French poetry and around her office one finds verses in various stages of development. T,nng before she be came Cecil DeMille's scenario writer, you see, she received her education in France. Dueling scenes in Pnla Negri's lat est picture for Paramount, “t.lly of I lie Dust," were directed by Dimitri Buchowetzki from memories of an .ncldent in his youth. At the age of 10, when upon an early morning hunt for birds’ eggs ho accidentally d'seovered a group engaged in an “affair of honor." Concealed in the hushes he watched the incident until one of the participants was wounded. The Jack Dempsey company, mak leg two-reel features for Universal, has become the proud possessor of a full fledged mascot. William Wau keil, Russian, was brought to this eounlry by the American Red Cross nnd the boy went to Chicago to hunt for his sister. Unable to find her he went to Universal City, where he was not "discovered" until recently. He is tremendously interested in his work and with a few years added to his 16 will make a good citizen and a successful man. Well, It Don’t Show on Screen. Adolph Menjou may be debonair, the last word in thlnga aartorial but he doesn’t wear silk underwear! During the filming of "Broken Barriers,” Reginald Barker'* latest production of the .Metro-Louls B. Mayer forces, a writer for a popular magazine told Mr. Barker that ahe would like to interview th* noted actor. "He's the best dressed man on the screen,” she said, "so I'm going to ask him to talk on the subject of male attire. Don't you think that would be a novelty In Interview*?" The noted director agreed. But there was a twinkle in his eyes as he went back to directing Menjou and James Kirkwood In a big scene. An hour later the young lady was ushered Into Menjou's dressing room where he was making up in front of a large mirror. He was in evening clothes, but his stiff-bosomed shirt was open st the neck revealing four square Inrhee of a red-flannel under shirt. Mr. Barker says the writer almost fainted. lit any event she changed her mind as to Interviewing Menjou as an authority on masculine rai ment. Neither Barker nor Menjou will ad mlr a frameup. "Broken Barriers” was adapted by Rada Cowan and Howard Higgtn from Meredith Nicholaon's novel. It ia being photographed by Percy 1111 burn. At the Lothrop.
