q piece of black cardboard is carefully
fitted to the front of the camera, in
such a manner as to permit the lens
to cover only that portion of the set
which has been allotted to one Of the
character. usinh the thread as guide.
This arrangement completed, we re-
hearse the scene in that part of the
set which is still within range Of the
,camera, and finally photograph the
action. Then, while / make mad
dash for my dressing room to change
my costume for that OF the prince,
the camera man is shifting his hood
from one side of the lens to the other,
in order to cover the part of the film
already exposed and to include in its
field the remainder of the scene, which
wac formerly excluded. Then the
prince sdoes his bit" and is duly phot
tographed.
I'm that way the entire film has now
been exposed and the action Of both
boys has been recorded, thus com-
pleting the seene, Il sounds ali very
simple, but iIsworid not advise any an.
ateurs to attempt to make double

perts-and possibly clairyoyants.

Il amounts truly to four parts. Worse
yet, the characters appear on the
screen, at the same timel It was
somewhat Of a surpriss to me the FIRST
time that saw "Wildhower." my FIRST,
exhibited at a private performance.
There I was running about on the
screen, as real as could be. I fairly
had to pinch myself to realize that ]
was not dreaming.
But think Of this new situation in
which there is two OF me! One FREE
quently hears of people seeing double
and It is not generally admitted that
It is done in the best circles-at least
nobody ever brags about. But shall
certainly see double when this picture
IS completed. And shall have per-
fectly good reason for SO doing.
But let US go back to that queer
outpouring of words IN the beginning
and see if we cannot reduce it to cons
mon, everyday sense. This is what II
means:
The prince invites the pauper into
the palace, but the little beggar nat
ura1ly oyerawed by ali the splcndor
which surrounds him, is bashfu1 and
proves backward about accepting the
1nvitation. The prince thinking that
the waif is following him walks into
the middle of the room. turns to speak
to his guest, and. finds. that he has
hung back at the DOOR. So he returns
to the door and urges him to come
IN, assuring him that AFT is well.
This time the ragged little chap fol-
lows his regally clad host, who comes
down to the center Of the room. Then
they talk to each other. But my direc-
tors warn me when playing the prince
not to stand too close to the spot
where ] stood as the pauper, because
the figures might collide when the An
isiied film is shown on the screen-or
only half of the prince might be seen,
which would be quite a phenomenon.

this is one of his most delightful

noSSIBLY word concerning tl,i.

= called, would not be aniss. There
are probably great many people who
do not understand It. Like everything
else, when you once get the hang of 1t,
1t is so simple" OF course, everybody
realizes that, when the same person
appears in two different roles on the
screen simultaneously, there is some
Photographic juggling necessary. For
even in moving pictures, where almost
everything is possible, the miracle OF
dual identity has not yet been per-
formed in the flesh.
Let us pursue our first line OF
Thought and stick to our friends, the
prince and beggar chap. We will even
revert to the scenes referred to in our
opening volley. Our object, is that,
when the completed film is exhibited,
both boys shall be seen in the palace
lat the same time. How shall we 60
about it?
While am struggling into the rags
of the paupcr and smudging my face
with grease paint and charcoal, the
camera man and my directors are
standing before the set which is to
represent the interior of the palace,
arguing as to just how far into the
room the pauper will come and to
what point the prince will proceed
when ushsring him in. These ques-
lions settled, they carefully stretch q
thread along the floor Of the room,
