A WORD FROM JOSH WISE
OUR MOVIE LESSONS
IV.-Human Interest.

Tears are great human interest
factors. Put something in your
photoplay that will bring tears.
(But do not have the herowine
peel onions.) Emotion plays q
large part in making human in
terest, and gestures and facial ex-
preston play as large a part In
emotion. So, when the hero looks
like he is chewing a nail, it means
that he Is sad. This makes the
audience sad. for they wish he
swallowed the nail and choked to
death.
Some of the intense ex-
element of the earlier part
OF the week In Tacoma has
died away. The park board

bonds, already voted at an election
held early in the spring, was voted
again at second election TO correct
defects ii the method of hc lding the

ready opened negotiations with the
Ferguson school board for the issue.
The building Ferguson VIII build Will
probably be a duplicate of the Van
cleve school.
The vote at the Albion election was
l35 for and - against the issue. The
board made the mistake Of allowing
the women and men 10 vote in the

not Keeping their votes separate. That
oversight made a defect in the pro-
ceedings OF issuing the bonds which II
was necessary 10 correct ~ another

Moves TO California:
Returns to Old Home

The unusual has happened A Mar
shalltown family that moved to Cali
fornia to live has returned to this city
where the grass grows green without
fertilization and where it can rain
without bringing on a cloudburst. Mr..
and Mrs. Matt p. Matsen and daugh-
ter Carrie, who went from this city to
Whittier two years ago, are back. They
have come to live.
Matsen went to Whittier and opened
the Iowa Grocery. Before leaving there
he sold the business, his home and
everything, including even the automo-
bile. And to say that the family is
tickled to get back doesn't fairly ex-
press their feelings. for they never
were quite contented in California. Be-
fore moving away the family lived al
