Both the piles and Marie were badly dented, and she will have to cancel a number of her near future contracts. The resultant tidal wave, as Marie struck the ocean, did great damage to shipping."

The pic tures will be taken in Rome and Lon don with Italian actors in the subor dinate roles. Mr. Calne himself will supervise the work.

First class nrtsoners in the Tennes see state penitentiary are now enabled to see motion pictures three times week. Tha nictura machine is run by one of the prisoners, an expert electri cian, and the pictures not only break the monotony of prison life, but serve ss a lively incentive for good behavior In. the prisoners of lower grades. The pictures have not been installed by the state, but by a private individual. The ability of Kathlyn Williams, the popular star of the "Adventures of Kathlyn." which have juat come to a close, are not confined to acting, for that versatile young woman is also a scenario writer and director.

"In my opinion any player who neg lects an opportunity to appear on the screen is losing possibility for the financial recompense la the 'Ugitl- 1 mat theatrical world." is th sweep ing assertion of James K, Hackett, prominent actor-manager. ; "I do not agree with those who say that the moving picture has had a bad effect on the regular theatrical bust ness. I do say most emphatically, however, that the moving picture has don more to raise the standard of the legitimate productions than any other Influence which ever has been known. "There is just as much reward today for th meritorious stage production as there ever was, but th moving picture provides so much and so goo entertainment for so little cost that it has made absolutely hopeless the mediocre play presented at a scale of prices ranging from 25 cents to II. "I have discovered another use to which I will put the motion picture when I return to' the United States. X am 'going to rehearse my dramatlo company in the usual way until th members have reached the stage of perfection. Then at the dress rehearsal X will have a moving picture taken of th play, and I am confident that when I have this before me and can view It time after time without the slightest change I shall be able to discover msny helpful idess and lni provements which cannot be seen in the regular rehearsal or performance. most valuable advertising In the world. and thos who do not take advantage 1 Even more valuable than to the man of it will Quickly find themselves I ager or stage director will this film be passed in the race for distinction snd I to the player."
