les infos de La Bignole
| Excelsior |
| Page One - The London Conference ended last night. The House and Senate are convened for Thursday at 3 p.m. |
| Page three - Not-so-miscellaneous facts: Intra-family homicides, tragic swimming incidents, fatal car accidents... nothing new on this point, the centuries follow one another and are all alike. |
|

Page twenty-three - Silent art: "The Heart of the Gueux" a new film by Mr. Machin, a seasoned filmmaker, whose studio is in Nice, who had the idea of mixing animals with film actors. After the great success of his last film "Beasts... like men", here is an original photo of a scene from his new film "The Heart of the Gueux" with one of his favorite actors "Auguste", a monkey who has Mr. Maurice de Férandy as a partner. But be patient, the film will not be released on screen until November 6 next year. Alfred Machin, whose biography and films deserve a little dusting off to make himself (re)known again. In the 21st century, an Alfred Machin festival sounds good. But there are still screenings of his films.

| Le Petit Journal illustré |
| Page two - Hand to pen. We no longer write letters, a custom of yesteryear killed by the hectic existence of modern life. And today inspiration is sorely lacking, so why not resort to old books like "Perfect Secretaries"? Still relevant in the 21st century! And the advice of La Bignole, take a trip to the second-hand booksellers, for example those on the quays in Paris, to find little treasures. Or download a copy found by La Bignole on the BNF. |
