AT -THE PALMETTO" NEXT WEEK I THE PALMETTO has a feature week all this week The announcement of Tuesday's special will appear in the next issue of this paper. Thf Palmetto's popularity is assured. The general tone of ^\ the pictures, the comfort and coolness of our interior and the unfailing " efforts to give good service are appreciated by the public and is evidenced in the increased daily attendance day by day. : : THE COOLEST PLACE IN ANDERSON : : and DCIJ WITH THE MOVIES Sisters Are Lending Women. With possibly one exception, no other motion-picture studio can claim sisters as leading women, yet among the I,ubin constellation there are no brighter lights, nor more adored girls than Louise Huff, who for a year has been the sprightly little heroine of those photoplays produced by Edgar Jones, and her ulster. Justina, who has played alternate leads in Colonel Jos eph Smiley's productions. They have often been mistaken for twins, but should they appear on the pcreen to gether '.he slight difference in height and features would quickly distinguish eocb as a distinct representative of the same type. They appear at the Palmetto. -o Lucille Love Nearing an End "Lucillo Love" is nearing an end of its run, and already the Universal ?B receiving a volley of inquiries as to what is going to succeed "Lucille Love." On another page a brief refer ence is made to "The Trey of HeartB," which Louie Joseph Joseph Vance is writing for the Big U, and which goeB on the Universal program as a serial early in August. Keep your eyes open for further announcements. "Lucille Love" will be followed at the Bijou by the "Million Dollar Mys tery" which starts Thursday, July 16. Read tho story in Thc Intelligencer. The Studio. He who would penetrate the mys teries of motion picture making in the Ediron Studio must learn ah "Open Sesame" to a certain little door. When | that door closes behind him, he haB found his way into a pew world; and he ls bewildered. The rapid comly-* and going of many people, the sins'for glare of strange lights, the sharp ring ing of an unreel? gong, followed by a sudden hush, another clang of an . un seen gong, followed by renewed 'ac tivity, curt commands in a strange Jargon; all this is perplexing-the first impression is confusion. This impression ls soon dispelled, The comings and goings have a definite purpose and produce immediate re quite. The lights end the bells have their ordered place in the general scheme. There 1B na confusion, in re ality. This ?B a place where - things are done, and done well and quickly by i men who know how to do them. Imagine a vast hall, with a stretch of floor space, that would delight the heart of an old Viking, who liked to sit at meat with all his people at one great table. He would have no trouble here. There would be room for some outsiders. Overhead ls a network of steel beams, overhung by a glass ceiling. Every inch of the floor space is utiliz ed for the production of interior scenes. Side by side there are "sets," which is the techincal name for scenes -a gorgeous Italian palace next to a room in a dingy hovel; a beautiful Fifth avenue hotel socially rubbing el bows with a BWeat shop; a drawing room next to a kitchen. In each of these seta a company is working. They may be only rehears lng a scene-and every tcene IB gone over many times-or they may be playing lt. If the latter, just before they begin, the gong rings and sudden ly all activity ceases throughout the rtudlo for from one tc three minutes. Another clang of the gong and the general activity 1B renewed. The eye rests idly on a scene repre senting, say, a lady's boudoir. Sud denly piece by piece it begins to dis appear. A corps of alert, skillful workmen are taking it apart, lt is gone. In place of it a court room take:1 form. The lady and her maid have vanished; instead there ls a judge, a jury, and a trial is going on. It seems like'a real triai. Reality 1B pre-emi nently an Edison quality. "Real" plays, "real" tcene* and real actors in the end give real results. Edison pictures are shown at thc Palmetto. Keystone (?ets i Good One.
