H. M. (Beanie) Walker. Hal
Roach title writer, Is having his
troubles translating comedy main
titles into Spanish for the Spanish
editions of Laurel and Hardy,
Our Gang and Harry Langdon
comedies.
For example. Laurel and Har
dy's new talking film in English;
is called "Mght Owls." spamsn
people, it seems, will not know
what we mean by night owls in
a Laurel and Hardy sense. The
night owls in the comedy are a
couple of burglars, so the Spanish
edition has been titled "La-drones,"
Harry Langdon's new talking
comedy is to be called "The Big
Kick" In English. There again
a . literal translation would be
meaningless to the Spanish-speaking
people. So the Spanish edi
tion is to be called "La Estacion
de Gasolina," meaning the gaso
line station. Harry Langdon is
the proprietor of a gasoline filling
station in the new comedy.
"Los Pequenos Papas," mean
ing The Little Papas, is the Span
ish title of Our Gang's first talk
ing film with a Spanish version.
The English film wU be called
"The First Seven Years." which,
being an American idiom, would
be unintelligible if translated lit
erally in Spanish.
Mushrooms and
Lobsters Eaten
By Movie Folk
According to Hollywood- statis- j
tice. poor lobsters have no chance i
for life if there's a movie star
around. Mushrooms must grow i
fast, too, to supply the demand, j
These are the two dishes chosen i
most often to satisfy the epicur
ean tastes of Radio Pictures'
stars, according to the studio
chef.
They eat other things, too. of
course. Their second cnoices run
something like this:

deff would choose Hungarian
goulash.
Paradoxically, they eat less

Etiquette
By ROBERTA LEE
Hollywood this week is cele-
! bra tin k the birthday or taming
pictures.
Instead of three baby candles,
17 large ones are placed on the
cake of this form of entertainment.
For. whereas the development
of talking pictures is a recent
step, the idea was created and ac
tually produced in 1912 and a
talking picture was shown to the
public for the first time on reo
ruary 17. 1913, it is recalled by
Jesse L. Lasky. one of the pio
neer producers of the industry.
Thomas Edison presents his lat
est and greatest Invention talk
ing motion pictures, or the cam
eraphone. Variety in Program
The program consisted of a
onA from Shakespeare's "Julius
Caesar." a short lecture explain
ing the device, a violinist, a sing
er and a pianist. The whole was
rinrieil hv the breaking of a
rhlna dish.
ThU urogram was of the first
experiments . in talking pictures
and was made simply. A phono
rranh record was selected and
then the recording artist was pho
tographed until the synchroniza
tion was as near correct as pos-
Rihle. At that time, closeups had
not come into popular use and It
difficult to read lip move
ment in a full-figure shot.
Reviewers received the pre
miere without enthusiasm.
Actors Observe Day
In Hollywood today, two per
sons commemorated the birthday
rt talk in e- nictures with amused
memories.
Both happen to be working as
actors in the same picture, por-
trarinr character oarts in "The
Texan." Paramount s companion

which Gary Cooper plays the title

Itpve his knife and fork on the
street in New York. They sat In
the orchestra pit, out of eight,
and each of them played several
different characters, reciting
lines as the films proceeded for
its length of a reel.
Apfel became one of the first
directors of pictures when ne
joined the Thomas Edison Film
company in New York in 1911.
"Edison sent for me in New
York to come to West orange,
New Jersey, where his experi
mental laboratories were locat
ed," Apfel recalls.

'Our method was cruae, as l

'A huge horn extended xrom
the recording machine over the
heads ot the players, out ol
range of the camera much as the
microphones are used today.
"We were limHed to seven
minutes since this was the capac
ity of the disc record and we bad
to rehearse carefully because the
scene must be perfect in action
and timing."
Aofel left the Edison company
shortly after his session in talk
ing pictures, and in 1914 Jesse
L. Lasky sent him to Houywooa
to direct a number of Laky's first
films.

patients and tried to improve
their ways of living. His obser
vations over a long period of
time convinced him many people
were ruining their health by a
careless choice of laxatives. Then
he determined to write a pre
scription which would get at the
cause of constipation and correct
ft quickly and safely.
How successful his efforts were
ia best shown by the fact that the
prescription he wrote back in
1885 has become the world's most
popular laxative! He prescribed
a mixture of herbs and other pure
ingredients now- known as Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, in
thousands of esses where bad
breath, coated tongue, gas,
headaches, biliousness, and
lack of appetite, or energy
showed him that the bowels

of men, women or children were
sluggish. It proved successful in
the most obstinate cases. So men
liked it. Old folks liked it because
it never gripes. Children liked its
pleasant taste. And everybody is
pleased with the gentle way it
accomplishes its purpose.
By 1888, 4he demand for this
laxative was so great that the
doctor permitted it to be bottled
and sold by drugstores. Todsy
yon can obtain Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin from any drugstore
in the world.
