MURRETTE Walter L. Oriftin, cnief cinemato grapher for David M. Hartford produa
tion, has probably the largest collec
tion of freak camera lenses in exist
ence today, one in particular being a
telescopic affair capable of making close ups at a distance of several hun
dred feet.
During the filming of the forest fire
in Mr. Hartfords' production of "Nomads of The North" this lens proved
that it was worth its weight in platinum.
Seven out of thp haftprv nf ple-ht

- J mance to the screen, Metro undertook I ! an artistic task whose gigantic nature
I ! was apparent even before the opening
scene was "shot, in making thisj million dollar photo-drama practically! every known record of the motion pic-1 ture industry was broken. j The characters of the story workout their destinies on two hemispheres, i From Argentine, with its far-flung' ranges, to the capitals of Europe, the;
heroes ana heroines or tnis master work of fiction are faithfully portrayed upon the screen as the story works out its tense human drama against the
final background of a world in arms.
Statistics compiled at the Metro
studios indicate that the production, judged by all known standards of pic
ture making, is the most gigantic
photo spectacle in the history of the silent drama. The actual photography of Ibanez epochal novel took, more than six months to complete?
A total or 12,000 men and women, or
the adult population of a city of 60,000
participated in the filming of the pic
tures, either before the camera or as
workers on the big sets. The cast in
terpreting the principal roles in the
most widely read book of all times, except the Bible, contains two dozen men and women who in other productions would be rated as stars. Fourteen camera men and a dozen assistant
This time it's a comedy skit which tops the offerings. Mack and Stanton appear in the role of warden and prisoner, respectively, but the pathos is introduced by the bitterness of the prisoner at having to lose his "Home. Sweet Home," with his time served. In addition to genuine comedy, both members of the team can sing weil. "Tired of Me," by the comedian, proves him to be the possessor of a strong, clear tenor. "The Hold-Up Girl," is pretty and charming beyond expectation. She hardly has a voice for solo work, but the male member of the team sang "Aint We Got Fun." with creditibl gusto. The act is the kind much In
demand light, humorous, and with a touch of feminine appeal. One is kept in a "stew" while the barrel jumpers. Rose. Ellis and Rose, perform their "injury defying" oddities. It is one of the3e acts which one doesn't want to miss, yet is afraid to watch.- ' The Nagfys are veritable fir eaters. From the opening, and their place is on first they continue to puzzle their audience by exhibitions ; contrary to reason. The stunts are thrillers. Hobart Bosworth in "His Own Law"

Hobart Bosworth of "Sea Wolf fame, who appears in "His Own Law"
at the Murray theatre had been tinkering with his new "speedie eight." Overalled, grimy and sartorially de trop,' "he drove up to a little corner lunch room in Hollywood and ordered a bite. As he was finishing his meal the proprietor sidled up to him rather deferentially and suggested r - "Would you like to take on a little job?
