Young Writers by Use Of Imagination and Ingenuity Should Have
Little Trouble in Meeting with Success.

Interest N the play-writing contest
for pupils of the public and parochial
schools of Essex. HUDSON and Union
counties has been st idly increasing
since 10 announcement o. the $3.50
prize contest was made a few days
ego. Several pupils have registered
their names and thus signitied their in
tentions of striving for the valuable
Prize offered by The Star.
r. j. who W followed the daily
hints appearing in these columns are
doubtless aware hat with a little eff
fort and tire. a little ingenuity ana
imagination, they will be able to write
a. story in dialogue + RIM and submit 1t
to the judges of this contest. Inge-
nut and imagination are mentioned
because these are the w essentials
in play writing. But every boy and
girl is gil.ed with Imagination and a
great majority OF lem have ingenuity.
What he pupil needs is encourage
ment and motive. The Star will en-
deavor to supply both as far as pos
sible.
Imagination is necessary because the
writer forms his entire story on that
asis. He must imagine his charac-
tiers, their style and purpose, and he
must imagine his story as it Will
sound when spoken by the actor n
IS it will appear when acted.
II the play is to be a serious the
sh uld be given \ dramatic value
and the sentences should be formed
with some regard for their artistic
valu and grammatical beauty.
II the play is to be a farcical COM
edy considerable thought will have to
be given to the public's idea of humor
rather than the writer's own private
idea of 1t. The question is not whether
you think a line or a joke will be
funny. but whether the public will con-
slider l. so.

DEAN OF FRENCH JOURNALISTS QUITS

Henri Rochefort, veteran polemist
and dean Of French journalists, has
laid aside his pen forever.
He Is almost elghty-two years old.
has been in journalistic harness for
half a century. and until the present
indisposition has not missed writing
an article every day for more than
forty years. Even since his eyes be-
gan to fail him. only once has no
missed debating his daily article.
And now the doughty old fighter
takes what he believes to be only a
temporary rest at the imperative or.
der of his physicians. The paper for
which he has written so many pal
plating articles announces that no
one replaces him. 1t says in effect
what Jefferson replied when the
French foreign minister welcomed
him with the remark: "You replace
Dr.. Franklin" No" replied the au-
thor of JefHersonian simplicity; no
one can replace DR.. Franklin; +
merely succeed him" AS long as a
