The public imagines there are i'm
mense profits for every one in this
business. 1t Is true that formerly the
profits were large. but that Is no longer
the case. The business has become
commercialized, while the profits are
smaller now, owing to increased ex-
penses.
"One of the principal items of ex-
pense is rentals. Owners who once
were glad to let buildings for motion
picture theaters at normal rents now
demand what are in many cases ex-
orbitant sums for the use OF their
premises. They seem to think that
motion picture shows are in the sa-
loonk eeper class of tenants and that
they should be compelled to pay more
for floor space than would be asked
of some tenant who was seeking q
place in which to establish some or
binary business 1t is true that loca-

OF all the quick growths in any

in recent years it IL asserted that
with the single exception of the auto
mobile industry none has been more
meteoric than that of the moving pic

years ago several hundred thousand
dollars represented the amount of
capital employed. today II is estimated

mart in the work were sent from New
York to ireland, so that the play might
be acted amid appropriate surround
ings.
Only few days ago the principals
of company sent, as the Sun has re-
lated, by a New York film manufac-
turing concern to the Holy Land to
portray the important events in the
life OF Christ. returned to this city. In
order to obtain as many photo plays
as possible while the company was In
the East the expenses of sending the
principal actors from New York hav-
Ing been very great, other scenarios
were prepared and acted in other
places than the Holy Land. One OF
these included a film picture showing
the actors at various historical points,
such as the Pyramids. the ruins at
Luxor and the tomhsl of ancient Egyp-
tian rulers. II
Motion picture companies are al
ways in the market to purchase seen
arios that may be suitable for pro-
duction In motion picture form. Each
finn company has a corps of scenario
editors who read the manuscripts sub
mitted in the same manner as book
publishing houses examine manu-
scrips of stories submitted with view
to publication in book form. These
scenario manuscripts, which are often
received by dozens each day. are sub
jected to a process of elimination at
the hands of the sub-editors or read
ers. After they have been examined
by several readers and those not suit
able have been rejctd, the ones which
seem to be worth considering are sub
mitted to the chief editor If he
passes favorably on them the manu-
scripts are then placed before higher
officers of the company for their ex-
animation.
Many writers Of scenarios, II In
found, either consciously or uncon-
sciously take their subjects from books
or newspaper stories which are In the
public eye. while others seek to fool
the editors by plagiarizing some old or
forgotten book. which seems to con-
tain suitable subject. The chances

fury
The charge was recently made that
motion picture theaters are to some
extent responsible for the high cost
OF living, in that they induce persons
of small or moderate means to spend
money which otherwise might be
placed In savings banks-This argu-
ment Is laughed at by those engaged
in the motion picture business. and
they point to the fact that a person
may visit "A motion picture show many
times for the cost of attending reg
ular theater but once.
The average person has little con-
ception of the actual commercial side
of the motion picture business" said
the manager OF one of the best known
and most popular film predicting COM
panies in the United States. We who
have large capital invested IN the bus
mess realize very thoroughly the great
cost OF film production, while the man
