Speaking to a correspondent of the London Edi- tion of the Manchester Guardian Sir John said: "I take my work on the stage to be my opportunity to convey what ever mesage I wish. Never hither- to have I produced a single play without feelpg the imperative need of getting its message over to the audience, My conviction, based on some experiences by now, is that good acting is largely dependent on the response which the audience makes to the actor. The response may be favorable or it may be un- favorable, but the audience is es- sential, There is a human touch in stage work which has ite influ- ence on those on the stage. "Here, hbwever, thers Is no au- dience and consequently no reac- tion, and one is dependent for in« ration largely on one's own ima- gination, e main advantage of gereen over stage work is that fac- ial expression counts for go much In the ordinary theatre s, generally such a distance between the audience and the ac- tor that the actor depends for ef- fect on voice only. In the film, however, facial expressions are re- produced - with such wondrous exactness that they count for very much more. Science has suceeed- ed in reproducing the words bul not yet the variations in tones; and so certain personal characteristics of the actors are lost in the flim. But this, I believe, will be remed!- ed in time, and that time may not be so distant as some imagine, But I cannot help feeling that as a re- ligious service over the wireless Is only a poor substitute for the hu- man touch of worship in a church. so at best the film is but a suosti- tute for real acting." --pre FRANKFURT-TURNOVERS Take 1 dogen frankfurts, pour over them bofling water, let them stand one minute then carefully remove the skins.

Admission: Adults BO cents, Appr -- hot, dh Children 25 cents. a wr Cleveland.-- A hird's heart, as it begins its first timid and hesitant beats in its career of inspiration for future song, has heen caught by the micro-movie eamera here, The movie is taken of the em- wwryo, which is dissected from the egg about one or two days after in- cubation has started. The movie producer is Dr. Bradley M, Patten, professor of embriology, Western lteserve University's medical school, In the micro-movie the embryo Is shown floating in the liquid of the egg. The embryo, microscopic in size, appears on the screen like a giant tadpole or fish, about 6 or 6 feet long. The heart--a simple, transparent, bulbous tube, occupies a large part of the picture. At this stage nothing moves but the little bulb. The beating starts hefore the blood is ready for ecircu- lation. The tiny heart seems to be trying out its strength--it is timid and hesitant--its beating is inter- mittent and irregular. Bowmetimes the pulsation stops for long inter- vals, and then renews its intermit. tent aetion. All this time, the blood is being formed in the mem- branes of the egg that surround the embryo, After about 38 hours a signal goes out from some un- known source that the heart is rea- dy to begin its work, and the blood starts flowing. The corpuscles, which are trans- ported in a fluid, come to the heart NANCY CARROLL and PHILLIP HOLMES who will be seen in their new Paramount drama "Stolen Heaven" at the Regent for two days commencing next Tuesday afternoon. grains of sand travelling down chutes. They all move in unison with the contraction and relaxa- tion of the tiny heart bulb, In making the drama Professor Patten dissects the embryo from the yolk; places it in salt solution maintained at body temperature to keep life from ending and foscu- ses on it a microscope contained in an incubator, At the eyepiece is placed a motion picture camera, and the pletures are taken either by reflected or transmitted light, In his work Professor Patten hopes to discover how the bird grows insldg the shell and how the contraction of the heart progresses through it as {it beats, In the course of his work Professor Pat- ten takes slow motion pictures to analyze such motions as heart beat, and rapid pietures to analyze growth, The micro-movies are also in connection with the researches of S. Prentess Baldwin, Cleveland or- nihtologist, who used ingenieus electrical and mechanical devices for prying into the intimate home life of the wren and her hushand. One of these devices i§ to the olectro-cardiograph which shows the wren's heart to beat between 200 and 800 times a second. An- other device is the "wrenograph'" which shows Mrs. Wren te be very restless. weaving her nest numerous times, day and night. A thermo. couple and chart, just like many used 'in factories to measure the temperatures of boilers, records the temperature of the Wren's nest. This also hobs up and down with the bird's restless action. HORSE WAS USED TO COP'S WHISTLE New York.--There"s an adage to the effect that yqu can't please everybody. Police Commissioner Mulrooney's order abolishing the traffic policeman's whistle is no ex- ception. Recently a trafic cop stalked over to a horse-drawn truck at a busy Broadway crossing, and ad- dressed the driver with some jews ing: "Hey, didn't you see me waving my hand?' "Bure." responded "but my horse------"" "What's he got to do with it?" "Well, he used to start up as soon as he heard the whistle, but now I have trouble getting nun started."
