When a playwright forms the dia-
logue of a story that is to be acted he
invariably places himself in the posi-
ton of the characters. While a writer
Of plays must not be confused with a
producers of plays, it is nevertheless a
fact that the producer is enabled, from
the idea conveyed by the writer, to
bring out the action and dialogue &C
cording to the thought and suggestion
of the author.
A playwright who creates a story
must of necessity have in his MIND the
style of action Tor acting) with which
the play is to be produced.
In entering the play-writing contest
now being promoted by The Star, the
boy or girl who contemplates writing
a story in dialogue form should fasten
in his or her mind the exact character
of the players. The dialogue must be
consistent with the character. 1t will
be found most essential to form a very
definite mind picture" of each of the
characters and while dialogue is being
written for those characters the writer
should play the part in his own mind.
Give each of your characters a well
defined style of dress, of manner, of
form of speech and style of acting and
make your story conform to that we'll
fixed idea.

OSBORNE TELLS Of
TAFT OPPOSITION
Says President Is Not in Sym-
patfy with Progressive
Movement

HACKENsACK, Feb. 15.-In his ad-
gen County Progressive League, last
night, Edmund 3. Osborne, president
of the New Jersey State League, spoke
in part as follows on Why the New
Jersey Progressives Oppose Taft and
Favor Roosevelt" He said:
THE contest within the Republican
party is not a new confetti is only
a new manifestation of the age-long
conflict between the privileged orders
ana the people. 1t is the fight for the
common good against the selfish mi
nority, which seeks special privilege
by the control of government.
THE two great social forces are con-
tending for the control of the Re
publican party-the forces of arls-
tocracy and privilege on the one hand,
the forces of democracy and progress
on the other. 1t is a flghs to the finish
1T will not be a drawn battle. The
Republican party is going to be a pro-
gressiye party or a ~reactlonary party.
w Progressives are the true Re-
publicans OF the original type. The
party was founded to fight for the
people against the privilege-seeking
minority-we want to turn the narty
back to Its original purpose.
w are not extremists; we are not
radicals-we stand for the very con-
sentative propositions that the gov
eminent shall be completely controlled
by the majority.
1.-THE late Senator Delivers descrip-
ton of the President is still up-to-
date: "A good man surrounded by
men who know exactly what they
want. Taft is not only out of SYM
pathy with the Progressives-he does
not understand what they are trying
to do-he brands them as "neurotics'
and 'emotionalists.' The President is
opposed to the Progressives because
he believes in minority rule and dis
trusts and ear real popular govern
ment."

IS LET
FOR PLANK ROAD
Temporary Work to Be Done by
New York Firm for
SIS,409.

Work on the temporary %replanNing Of
the Plank road started today and. ac-
cording to the terms of h contract,
which was awarded by the joint COM
mittee of the Essex and Hudson boards
of f~reeholders yesterday, must be COM
pleted within ten days. The. total cost
will be SIS, 400. The work was awarded
to the Trexler Lumber Company, Of
New York. Their bid for the first
section was 81, 459, and for the third
Sc, 1850.
1t will be unnecessary for the boards
of f%reeholders to approve of the con
tracts, as a resolution adopted by the
Essex and Hudson officials empowered
the county supervisors and directors to
go ahead with the work.
Temporary roadways will be CON
structed alongside of the Plank road
during the replanking. Several other
concerns bid for the work.
Although the Essex members of the
committee favored the granting of an
application of the New York Telephone
Company to build a subway conduit
system in the Plank road the Hudson
members asked that it be laid over for
two weeks to allow their county coun-
sci to consider the proposition. The
allow the privilege on condition that
the company pay an annual assess
ment.
A police force to patrol the road will
likely be organized.
