JIOLLY WOOD The Inevitable cycle
of "wholesome" otorles following tho
"new" path blaw-d by that. story of
four sisters in New England Js here.
Every hiKhly successful picture
starts a movie cycle, and "Little Wo
men" naturally has had. the produc
ers ferreting through, tho libraries ln
search of other forgotten camples of
standard or clasHlo literature that
mlffht .prove equally .profitable.
Alrcartly they've "discovered" sev
eral nooks which, If not about four
sisters In a Now England town, atl
least have enjoyed tho eamo endur- j
ing popularity with readers and hence
might he expected to make hit pic- j
turcs ovon though. Louisa M. Alcott
didn't write, thorn.
. Ono of these is "David Copper
fluid," a we-Il-llkcd book by a de
ceased English novollst named Charles
Dickens,1 whoso previous popularity
with movto producers has been evi
denced only by several versions of
"Oliver Twist" and the recurrent
"Tale of Two Cltlcn."
Two others have been found among
tho works of another rather well
known Englishman named Rudyard
Kiplinp. Ramon Novarro has been an
nounced Tor "Klin" nnd they'ro look
ing for stars for "Cnpt:ilns Courage
ous." r
There will doubtless be more, to
bring Joy to tho hearts of school
teachers serkinc; means to "enliven'
their coumes ln literature.
History teachers, of course, have
even richer movlp aids forthcoming,

pocket, an absurd little ball made
of rollcd-up strands of copper wire.
He once said that it had been with,
