FILM STARS FOR SONG SLIDES
The neighborhood motion picture houses have
for several seasons been running slides to illus-
trate various popular songs which are sung at
their theatres, and they have noticed that hereto-
fore these slides were posed for either by
models unknown, or, where motion picture stars
were used, these were apparently selected from
already existing photographs not always appro-
priate.
Fred Fisher, Inc., however, announce an in-
novation in regard to such slides, and they have
secured two such well-known film figures as
Virginia Lee and Percy Marmot to pose espe-
cially for the illustrated slides for their new
number, "Broadway Rose."
