Chatter Of By The

Matt Golden, the two pants artist, was f-een cavorting around the block in a very hilarious manner recently. When questioned as to the reason for all the Jollification, Matt laughingly replied, "My name ha appeared twice in The Tower of Harel and I just found out that I do not have to pay the customary advertising rate for that space. " Gua Rcrkson, manager of the Blackstono theater, has a great many requests for assistance from young people who desire to get into the "moIr.c." During the past weeK a young chap approached Gus with the remark, "I want to get into the movies." "Look at me; look at my clothe. I have been studying these movie actors so that I dress like 'em. act like 'em and talk like 'em, but there is one thing that has been puzzling me. Where do they get those collars with the pink edges?" Gus smiled and said. "You evidently have been watching actors whose collars have been slightly soiled with grease paint. Better emulate actors who have more than ono collar if you want to do something in the movie business." And the young man went on his way still seeking that chance to do yhat many are trying to do break Into the movies. lNNi:i OUT. Lester Hurwich of the W. L. Douglas shoe store, was confronted recently with a very serious ituation. Here is how- It all came about. Desiring to have a model shoe store during the summer months. Mr. Hurwich installed several large fans. As the electricians completed their work Mr. Hurwich wanted to see If the fans would work poperly and turned on the current. The large propeller blades started revolving, faster and faster, until they created such a draft that customers and sales force alike . were blown through the front door. The above photo was taken while Mr. Hurwich. was attempting to explain to one or the customers who was gently wafted from the store. Coming to work the other morning. G. E. Brockett of the Blackstone Shop, passed two colored rorters who, instead of using the broom in their hands, were busily engaged in conversation. "Ah tells yo there is on'y one way to handle these blue Sundays," said one. "Mcanin which?" "Taint 'em a bright red." was the decided answer. Herbert Wolff, manager of th Auditorium theater, and his assistant." Harry Easton. were startled last week by a big rush at the box office. Herb, and Harry made a hurried trip to the scene of the neatrlot and found the theater lobby filled with employes of the H. D. Lee Mercantile Co.. who wanted to uiii:rk vor feti; THE GOOD ONES

Alia Axiom will have nothing on tho Observer for seeing into the future. Tho only regret that the Opener has to offer is that he was just one week late In placing hL? order. "Dinty." the little newsboy that won the hearts of the movie fans by outwitting the villian on the screen, had another narrow escape from death a." he was leaving South Hond. "Dinty" was all packed and placed Into an automobile ready to be taken to the railway station, when it was discovered that the automobile was on fire. It was only after some daring work on the part of Chief Toepp of the Blackstone theater that "Dinty" was saved from the burning automobile and the fire extinguished. Chief Toepp will probably be decorated by Manage. Berkfon with a fast traveling chair. Quiet and peace have prevailed in the block recently. C. B.

Bryant Washburn, the handsome star of the screen, is now touring the country, calling in rerson on his many friends throughout the Fnited States. When this nev.-s first reached the! ears cf the mcvie far.a in South Bend numerous requests were re- i ceived by the News-Times from people wanting: to know If Mr. Washburn would include South Bend in his tour. Efforts are now being made by local theater men to have Mr. Washburn visit this city, and while nothing definite can be stated at present, it is very probable that local movie fans will have the pleasure of seeing this wellknown star in person in the very near future. For the first time since he became a producer, William Fox recently introduced a color touch to a picture Pearl White is making at the Fox New- York studio. It was done by a new process. Arthur Gordon!, who !s playing roles, in a picture Pearl White is making at the Fox New York studio, is the husband of Nora Bayes, of musical comedy fame. Gladden James, well known leading man. has been engaged to play a leading role in a special production Charles J. Brabin is directing for William Fox in New York. Edward Douglass also has been engaged for a kid character part. Kstelle Taylor has the leading feminine role. Mr. Brabin directed Miss Taylor in "Blind Wives" and "While New York Sleeps." London is now seeing "Male and Female," but over there they call it by its right name, "The Admirable , Chrichton." For a Real Pleasant Place to Dine Try tho GOLDEN EAGLE . 208-10 S.
