What's What andWho'sWho in the Film World
You Have Failed at Everything
Else Don't Tackle Motion Pictures
, a
By PH. GOLDSTONE,
Manager World Film Exchange,
Omaha.
The time u past
when the man
with no experi
ence, no ability
and little money
can make a suc
cess in the motion
picture business.
The phenome
nal growth and
opportunity open
in this industry
haT attracted
men of real and
proven ability in
their respective
lines. They have
appplied their
knowledge to this
. , ; Business and from
hit and mist proposition we today
id the entire-moving picture indus
try a systematized business, with prof
its proportionate to investment of
money and ability. There are big op
portunities for the intelligent, success
ful men and the same lack of opportu
nity for the drifting chance seeker.
The man who goes from one business
to another in the hope that the god-
Vampire Parts Are
Craved by Women in
Quest of Movie Job
"Ah-h-h, ha-a-at And the villain
till pursued her!"
This time-honored line, that has
been used in melodramas since the
day when the drama first became mel
low, is "in grave danger of revision.
It has been declared on the best of
authority that the one who created the
line and the legion of those who have
made use of it did not know human
nature as it is known today. In their
times science had not revealed the true
instincts of man and woman and it
was supposed that man always was
the pursuer and the woman the pur
sued. But the motion pictures have
opened up the soul of woman and re
vealed therein emotions and instincts
that must have been hidden carefully
from time immemorial. At least, that
is what : Alan Crosland, casting di
rector for Thomas A. Edison, Inc.,
Motion Pictures, asserts.
(1 Tl i j.
i ve got to cnangc ray waoic con
ception regarding the natures of man
and woman," said Mr. Crosland re
cently. "Before I came into the pic
tures I truly believed that the ma
jority of men were villains at heart,
who . only succeeded in concealing
their true natures by being hypocrites.
And, at that time, I believed that all
women were good and true and that
all of them had noble aspirations and
high ambitions. Alas, alas I I have
found that the majority of women,
deep in their souls, have the desire
to bewicke.d.nd .crueLFor. prac-.
"tically every girl who comes into our
studio in search of a position seems
to he obsessed with the. idea that she
would make a tremendous hit if
featured as a vampire or an ad
venturess. More than once I have
been startled half out of my senses by
hearing Some misguided maiden, with
a face like a Kentucky turnip,' claim
that she would startle the world by
her portrayal of a Lucrezia Borgia
or a Charlotte Corday.
"And, as my suspicion of woman
has increased, man has risen higher
in my regard. The average man, ac
cording to my experience, has no aspi
ration to play the role of a low
browed yeggtnan or horse thief or
some part corresponding to those
which the majority of girls desire to
portray. Male villans do not seem to
relish their parts and I never saw an
. I .. 1 . I A .
role, doing nis oesi k oreas into uic
villain class."
OMAHA COMPANY TO TAKE
STECHER-LEWIS PICTURES
The contract for taking the motion
pictures of the Stecher-Lewis wrest
ling match on July 4 has been let to
the Summit Film company, an Oma
ha concern, composed of J. W. Rach
man. and H. R. Grebe. These young
men have been meeting with big suc
cess in their picture-making efforts
and have-a number of contracts lined
up that promise to make their com
pany quite a factor in the motion pic
ture business of Omaha. They are
also taking the society picture that is
to be shown soon at the Boyd for
charity. Tests on the film already
taken show it to be a good, sharp
negative.

Honeymoon Trip t
Causes Delay in
Track Conference
The honeymoon trip of George T.
Morton, chairman of the City Plan

of a definite consideration of
the Belt Line grade crossing litua-
A conference between city' officials
. and representatives of the Missouri
Pacific Railway company at th city
hall resulted in an agreement to meet
on July 15, by which time it is be
lieved Mr. Morton will have returned
to the city. .. ,t- -
The conference was quite informal
and was marked by good feeling. It
Is generally agreed that the track ele
vation scheme will be adopted, but
the details will be considered by the
City Planning board before being
submitted to the next meeting of the
conferees. The plan to move the Belt
Line tracks west of their present lo

desa of chance will gather him coin
without any effort or exertion on his
part will make poor headway in this
industry.
Immense fortunes are and will be
made in motion pictures, but to make
them one must compete with men of
ability, and that means one must de
liver the goods.
Every day the exchanges are visited
by people wanting to know what the
opportunities are Tn this business. We
always give the same advice:
"By all means get into the business
if you have plenty of ability, judg
ment and foresight"
"But how do we know we have the
required ability?" they ask.
', "By the success you have made be
fore. If you have let opportunity go
by, if your judgment has been poor,
your ambition weakened by hard
work in any other line, then stay out.
We have too much driftwood in the
business now. Follow the course of
least resistance join the army and
the government will make a man of
you.

this week, according to Manager
Schlank. "What Happened at 22'r is
the offering today and Monday and

son and Arthur Ashley. It is a mys
tery drama by Paul Wilstaeh, a
strange, though amusing, picturiza

was produced by the Frohman Amuse
ment company under the supervision
of William A. Brady. -
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday

company, including Thomas Meighan,
Florence Dagmar, Ernest Toy, Little
Billy Jacobs and Gerald Ward.
Friday, and Saturday Fannie Ward
comes to the Gayety in "A Gutter
Magdalene." This is the photoplay
promised some time ago, but which
could not be played because of an

action. It is the kind of play that
touches the heart and increases one's
faith in humanity.

Equitable feature entitled "The Ques

FEATURE AND CON' IDY

nue, at Locust, is offering a suitable
Sunday picture today entitled "In the
Name of the Prince of Peace," a five
reel feature. "Peg O' the Ring" is the

one. Unlike the usual serial story,
"Gloria's Romance" is a clean, pretty
story with little of the robberies and
thefts generally seen. Billie Burke,
of course, is the life of the narrative
and is just as successful in portray
ing her role as she ever was on the
legitimate stage. The story of the
play is now appearing every Monday
in The Bee.
1 Today the Grand offers Bruce Mc
Rae and Gerda Holmes in "Chain In
visible," a World film production, ac
companied by a clever comedy.

Talks With Screen-Struck Girls
By BEATRIZ MICHELENA No. 13
JStkeleia
Bcalw,
(Copyrighted April, 1916, by Beatrix
Michelena.)
I have received
a very interesting
letter from a girl,
in Decatur, III.,
and following the
suggestion in my
first "talk" she
has filled it quite
full to the brim
with questions.
One of these
will furnish me a
text .for this
week. She asks,
"Why is it so
many people give
a bad name to
picture actresses?
Why can't a movie girl be just as
honorable and make her living just
as honestly as any girl at some other
occupation?" (
This brings up the whole question
of morals in the motion picture pro
fession; and it seems to be a very
burning question in some quarters
made so, perhaps, more often by mis
conception and misrepresentation
than by conditions actually existing.
It is an old adage and a very true
one that "the devil one finds in Paris
is the devil he brings there with him."
There is good and bad everywhere;
either may be, had for the selecting.
In the picture profession a girl may
find the same degree and quality of
bad that she may find in the village
or the city block at home; or she may
find the same degree and quality of
good. It rests with the girl rather
than the profession.
A girl can most assuredly be just
as honorable in pictures as else
where. Some of the sweetest and
best girls I have ever known are
motion picture actresses.
Why then the bad name that so
many people give the profession? In
the first place people are always look
ing for. the bad, and especially look
ing for it in the high places. They
would much rather find it than the
good. The newspaper editor, who
must necessarily be a keen judge of
human nature an human likes and
dislikes, knows this. That is why
so many headlines ' concern them
selves with crime and divorces and
scandal
Now In looking for the bad, the
people naturally turn their eyes in
the direction where the spotlight of
publicity strikes most brilliantly.
Scandal about a humble factory girl
has small relish, but if it be about
a woman of fame and achievement
it is very, very sweet indeed.
No one is placed more prominently
before the public gaze than the mo
tion picture actress. Little notice is
given her virtues. That side is un
interesting. But If she takes the
smallest step amiss, a great shout
goes up at once. Her misdeed is
magnified and extended until it Is
made to overcast the entire profession.
Sues Woman Jitney
Pilot for Damages
Margaret Stranz, one of the first
women jitney-bus drivers In Omaha,
is made co-dependant with the Geor
gia Casualty company, In a suit for
$2,500 damages filed by Irene L.
Hoye, who was injured in an acci
dent at Eleventh and Farnam last
spring.
Miss Hoye says she was riding in
an auto driven by E. R. Wilson, when
the jitney, which was going at a high
rate of speed, crashed into the oth
er car-, She suffered several broken
fingers and injuries to her spine.
MANUFACTURERS INVITE
OUTSIDERS TO OUTING
The place is the Omaha Field club,
the time is Thursday afternoon and
evening, June 29. The event is the
annual outinp of the Omaha Manufac
turers' association.
Stingy about it? No, for the manu
facturers have gone outside their own
membership and sent invitations to
every member of the Commercial
club. ' ' . ',"
Reservations are to be in by next
Tuesday. Base ball, golf, dancing and
a big dinner are among the attrac
tions of the afternoon and evening
Woman With Many
Chickens Needs a
Helping Hand
An embarrassment of riches in the
way of little chickens seems to have
overwhelmed Mrs. Gardner. 5948
Evans street, Benson.
She has 165 chicks hatched out by
incubator. She kept them in the kitch
en first, but now they are waxing
larger and larger day by day and they
are rebeling against being kept in
boxes around the kitchen stove.
But Mrs. Gardner has neither lum
ber nor carpentering ability to con
struct the necessary out-of-door dwell
ing or pen for the young birds, now
rapidly growing toward pullethood.
Mrs. Gardner needs help in other
ways.
. So,, via telephone, comes an appeal
to this great family daily to present
the case in order that, some one may
volunteer to do this job of building.
"And you will get your reward in
heaven," says the appealer.

North Brothers Stock company
will offer for the first time on any
stage an original drama, by Gilbert
Guest, a local writer, at the Krug
theater, beginning today at 2:30, and
continuinglor ten performances, with
matinees Thursday and Saturday. It
is a name-play, "Meg Burns," and is
founded upon the patriots of Ireland.
The characters are correctly Irish
and the traditions of the country are
vividly drawn, the costuming and
the scenic environment historically
Serfect. Practically all the boxes
ave been sold for the entire ten
performances and the sale of seats is
quite large.
"Meg Burns" is an interesting love
story, characteristic to the inhabi
tants of an Irish sea-coast with an in
tense heart" appeal interwoven into
strong dramatic action,' the central
figures being a , tempestuous ' Irish
girl (Haeel McNutt) and a parish
priest (Sport North). Performances
are being given under the auspices of
a well known educational organiza
tion and the proceeds are to be used
in a worthy cause, , , ; s ;
Next Sunday afternoon and even
ing this company will present Its sea
son's farewell performance until Au
gust 20 by offering "Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde."- -
6 -Edward
Lynch and his Associate
Players will begin the fifth week of
their more than successful second an
nual engagement at the Brandeis by
presenting "Sylvia Runs Away," in
troducing a face new to Omaha
theater-goers in the person of Miss
Itin Ragan, who enjoys an enviable
position in the east as a leading lady.
She is one of the most beautiful ac
tresses on the stage today and in
addition to this possesses talent of
a high degree. It is not difficult to
prophesy that ere the first week is
over Miss Ragan will be firmly in
stalled aa a favorite with those who
witness her performance. This is in
line with the claims of the manage
ment that nothing would be left un
done to earn the title of the "stock
perfect."
In "Sylvia Runs Away," every mem
ber of the company is fitted with a
part that should send this screamingly
funny farce over the footlights into
the hearts of the auditors to win even
higher enconiums of praise for Mr.
Lynch and his associate players than
those already given to this excellent
organization. Beginning tonight, all
new productions of this company will
be made on Sunday nights instead of
Monday as heretofore. Matinees on
Wednesday and Saturday as usual,
Ht .
The strongest feature of the Em
press vaudeville program for the first
half of this week, beginning today, is
the "Colonial Minstrel Maids." This
number is an all-girl revue, an Adam
