      CHARLIE CHAPLIN, on September 22, completed his

twelfth and final production under the Lone Star

trade-mark, thereby fulfilling his $670,000 contract with the

Mutual Film Corporation.

      With the completion of The Adventurer, this being the

title of the latest Mutual-Chaplin special, Mr. Chaplin

starts his affiliations with the First National Exhibitors‘ Circuit,

for which organization he will produce eight pictures

during the next eighteen months. (...)

      Plans for the Chaplin plant are now in the hands of the

architect, and they call for a studio which will be second

to none. Extreme attention will be given the stage, which will

be of unusual seize, and a greatly improved diffusing

system, which has been given careful study by Mr.Chaplin,

will be installed, being of such nature as to meet

all climatic conditions without the use of a glass covering.
