RADIO MARVEL
SHOWN IN FILM
NO GREATER marvel has been
invented than the wireless tel
ephone, which is the feature
of a Goldwyn-Bray Pictograph an
nounced for early release. Th film
now$ unusually well how the mar

transmitting electric waves which
travel great distances is pictured so
that teven a child can understand
how the electric waves are made to
carry sound.
Three other subjects are included
m this Goldwyn-Bray release a

on tne jpu in "ine Wrong Track."
Abraham Lincoln is represented
by Marcus M. Baldwin the copper
piate engraver ot tne Bureau ot en
graving and printing at Washington,
wno puts the engraved likenesses
of our presidents on the $5 bill.
His drawings of .Lincoln give the
authentic countenance with every
line of fortitude and compassion. In
the course of 45 years he has imade
the portraits of seven different
presidents.
Accuracy of detail is one of the
most important elements of success
ful motion pictures. The wish to
make Paramount Artcraft Pictures
accurate to the last-small detail has
prompted the establishment of a
technical school at the eastern
studios of Famous Playcrs-Lasky
corporation for the education of all
those who have to do with the pro
duction of motion pictures at these
studios, in the finer points of technic
that. go to make these pictures fin
ished products. The course of
study includes architecture, the
dressing of sets, the selection and
meaning of period furniture, and of
costuming. '
Thirty reels without a kiss! A dar
ing departure from moving picture
precedents, perhaps, but that's what
was done in "The Invisible Hand,"
the Vitngraph serial just completed
by Antonio Moreno, Pauline Curley
was the unkisscci nerome.
In the final scene the man and the
rirl, who had played at cross pur
ibses throughout the whole serial,
;lasp hands, all misunderstandings
gone. The faces are not shown and
as the arm of each steats abotit the
sther, the scene slowly fades. ,
"The girt who embarks on a stage
career." says Alice Brady, Realart
utar, "must be prepared to suffer
nany disappointments, to undergo
many hardships and work ceaseless
Iv. In recent years the motion picture
lias become the mccca for romantic
ffirls. They are wild to appear on the
screen and the meteoric careers of
some of otir motion picture stars
have added fuel to this nationwide
fire. But if anything, a screen career
is even more disappointing to the
romantic novice than a stage career.
For the girl . going into ' filmland
must be well equipped with ex
pensive clothe4 aud she must know
how to wear them. -
The recent renewed interest in
communication with departed spirits,
the re sort to the ouija board for
messages from the other world may
be but the result of the morbid
brooding over the loss of an old
friend and an effort to ascertain his
present condition and the probability
of his return to this part of the
world. It is a long time since any
character has had such a large
number of sincere mourners as the
late Sir John Barleycorn, Prisma's
latest release. The latter part of the
reel is a clever burlesque in the
methods which are supposedly em
ployed in the home to produce a
substitute such as ''Skimmins."
Rubye De Remcr,,who plays op
posite Eugene O'Brien in "A Fool
and His Money," is one of the
most elaborately gowned women ap
pearing on the screen, and one of
h mnt simnlv dressed in real life.
She is interested in dress reform
and believes that uniform dress for
women is merely a matter of time.

"Stop That Man," a stage play by
George V. Hohart, has been pur

at the Park theater in New York.
