Mabel Normand in the Goldwyn Pro-
duction “The Floor Below."
In the “The Floor Below," Goldywn's
next production starring 'Mabel Nor-
mand. a number of scenes are laid in
’ a busy newspaper office. Types. known
to all journalists are found there. and
some unique characters as well. Mabel
Normand herself plays a part entirely
- new to her. She is the copy girl who.
tmdges back and forth with the work
of creditor and typesetters. By turns
she is a slave to duty and an ally to the
spirit of mischief. adored by the men
with' whom she works—when she is
not causing them to swear at her for
her pranks.
By far the most amusing character
outside of Partricia O‘Rburke (played
by Miss Normand) is Stubbs. a grill-
zled veteran who is none other than
