Charlie Chaplin has moments when he is as appealingly
sad as Bernhart, or as tragic as Forbes-Robertson –
but then he‘s sure to put his elbow in the beans, or otherwise
put the hiatus on gloom – and that‘s what makes him
Chaplin. One might suspect that many of this week‘s Garrick
audiences were „repeaters,“ from the burst of anticipatory
laughter when the title „The Immigrant – now in its second week
– flashes.

„To seduce the generous impulses of the populace“

The Red Cross movement will receive a real impetus
out in Hollywood tonight, if Mary Pickford, Charlie
Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks, Julian Eltinge, Wallace Reid and
Dustin Farnum have aught to say about it.
These dazzling stars of the film firmament will appear
at the free band concert held nightly at the corner
of Sycamore and Hollywood boulevard, and will pass the hat
among those people present, gathering up a collection
which will go to to swell the Red Cross fund. Eltinge, it is
asserted, has been persuaded to appear in the garb
of a Red Cross nurse.
But this is not all. There is a benevolent bet among the
participants in the hat-passing contest that each will
be able to gather in the most shekels, and the losers have
pledged themselves to double whatever amount
they receive. May Pickford will pass a picturesque sunbonnet,
but each of the gentlemen will hold out the yawning
side of a crisp new straw to seduce the generous impulses
of the populace.“
