DR.. Saleeby Sounds
Cry For Long
Engagement.

Y, oU ask me to state my opinions
" of a question which most
nearly concerns me. says DR..
c. w. Saleeby in the June
Strand. for IL lies at the very root
of eugenics. and everything depends
upon the answer which a man re-
turns to Il. So pre-eminent, for So
ciety and the future. is the eugenic
issue here that you must allow me
TO extend the meaning of your ques-
ton, so that we may ask whether
love marriages are the happiest. not
merely for the married, but also for
their children.
II the word love be properly de-
fined. my answer Is the most EN-
phatic affirmative that words can
express. Sensory attraction. how
ever, called love only by those who
are incapable Of loving. Is not what
We must mean here. lt is q necss-
sary constituent and physical root
Of love itself. but not the whole. To
base permanent unions upon such
attraction-which, unless II gives rise
TO higher things. is Invariably tran
sient-is to commit the crime of
crimes against society present and
70 come. Hence the most cogent
argument for long engagements. that
We may see whether physical at
traction Is going to burgeon in
spiritual flower.
But IL by love we meant what
Shakespeare meant when he said
that To love is to be all made or
faith and service" your question
answers itself. Only the eugenist
must recognize the lamentable truth
that We are born different in this
respect as In the color of our eyes
and hair. Many are naturally in
capable Of love in the high sense,
and some kind OF compromise Is the
best that can be hoped for them.
Not a few among the many voluble
novices who are now advocating and
preJudicing the cause Of eugenics
declare that love Is not the best
basis OF marriage, either from the
Individual or the racial standpoint
I believe that view To be profound
ly false. and have elsewhere argued,
at length. following Darwin himself.
that the factors for which people

lated with health Of body and soul.
being often the direct expression of
1t and are therefore Of eugenic val
ue.
Real love Is indeed the most an
cient and valuable eugenic agent in
the world: only the most complete
ignorance of Darwin's classical work
and OF modern physiology and psy-
chology can account for the nom
sense we hear as to nm opposition
between love and married and par
entail happiness and worth.
The French are often quoted az
making quite success Of marriage
without love But the student knows
that the French race IL nov In a
critical plight. that its birthrate IL
deplorably small, that a great na-
tional commission Is now dealing
with the problem. and that II mar
riage without love was ever con-
demned on a mighty scale. II is In
the danger that now threatens the
illustrious race Of Pascal and Pas
teur.

Good Writing

One Of the rasons Ehy there have
been 50 many failures among the
amateur writers OF photoplays is
that they have tried TO make a play
out of an incident. and have sub
ordtnated common sense. human
emotions, and everything else to
gain their point In the latest issue
OF the Motion Picture World, Louis
Reeves Harrison. one of the best
Informed moving picture experts in
the country, has called attention TO
this habit as trying TO build a watch
without a spring.
People who go to the picture show
also read the papers and the maga-
zines. They are accustomed to the
stimulation OF literature and aware
OF Its signiI cance as an interpreter
Of what Is interesting in human ex-
daily work for the same kind Of
refreshnept at the picture show an
that afforded by printed stories,
whether fictional or Instructive.
whether a presentation of actual
facts in entertaining form, or a d.
yerting romance, their idea never
being that of looking at some mean
tngless trtviality, however attrac-
lively portrayed, a play without an
idea. a watch without a spring.
Generous critics-most of them
are tender-hearted-cover this alb
sence Of a handspring by praising
the works. How beautifully intri-
cate are the full-jeweled wheels!
How admirable the photography and
the acting and the settings! There
Is no doubt about the value of struc-
tural perfection, so the reviewer
may skillfully avoid mentioning the
subject matter, the real character
and contents Of a play, by dwelling
upon the phenomena OF form. A

matter is logically arranged and
presented in such a way as to COM
mand attention. Not so with the
audience
People in front unconsciously ap-
prove Of whatever makes it easy for
them to seize the meaning of a pho
todrsma, but it is not for them to
consider the succession in which sub
Jects and thought should be pre-
sented. II is the meaning they en-
tov IL il stirs their emotions-it is
the thought( they enjoy if it is
something new, or splendid, or in
spring.
Writing stories for screen pre-
sentation can never be successfully
done by people unequipped for the
work with knowledge and judgment.
and even authors OF knowledge and
judgment must find time and energy
sufficient to do their work well. 1t
is not a trivial occupation, yet GER
tain periodicals permit fakirs to ad-
vertise that the art can be taught
by correspondence, no other knowl
edge or training necessary The
purpose Of moving picture produc-
ton is not to publish the ignorance
of the incompetent, but II is to give
people the best creative genius has
TO offer. The screen presentation is
simply a means of expression more
direct and forceful than words-it
is not a medium for the fakir or the
fool-of all things, it's purpose is not
TO glorify the trivial"
