In marketing scripts, one should all

In writing a photoplay always re-
member to use as few principal char
acters as possible, for the fewer the
characters the better the play is un-
derstood by the audience.
In planning your cast you must
take into consideration Just what
feats they are compelled to accom-
plish, as extraordinary stunts had
better be avoided as a producer
might not wish to employ a certain
person for a picture jSst because she
is capable of walking a tight rope
500 feet in the air unless of course
the story is so strong and original
that it would pay to produce a pic
ture of the description but as a rule
stories requiring acts of this kind
are written by the staff around GER
tain characters they happen to have
convenient. In writing your story al
ways go straight to the point, get
down to business as it we're: no mat
ter If il be comedy. drama or tragedy
plunge right in, never use a lot of
padding" which has no bearing upon
the story proper and only wastes a
lot of film. Many a two-reel pic
ture could easily be condensed into
one reel and not lose a foot of in
terest. Never introduce into the
earlier scenes of your photoplay any
incident appearing to be of sufficient
Importance 10 effect the climax, un-
less it really does, as this only mis-
leads the audience and complicates
the story. DO not make your story
too melodramatic. or crowd your
scenario with minor thrills" which
all help to detract from the one big
punch" of your climax.

euNco GAMES ON FARMERS

In the current issue of the Farm
and -Fireside a woman, living in a
Gulf coast state, describes as follows.
how farmers in her part of the coun-
try are swindled:
"A few weeks ago our community
and in fact the whole rural popu-
lation of the county, was canvassed
by two men who claimed to be noted
opticians. They sold one or more
pairs Of glasses to every house where
one of the inmates wears glasses.
The price was; Cheap glasses, $40;
best glasses. $40.
These glasses are just such as a
local optician sells for $2.g0 to $500
pair. Although the cry OF hard
times is in the mouth of every farmer
these doctors carried off enough
cash to keep themselves in first-class
style for many months.
In the spring an agent traversed
the country selling patent medicines
salves, linaments, etc. He told his
customers he would notify them by
post what day to meet him In town
the following November for the goods
Strange to say that. although our
little town can boast OF only three
hundred inhabitants and the surround
ing country is settled up by 'one-horse
farmers, that patent medicine man
stood at the station that November
day and had collected $1,000 at a
moderate estimate. He stopped in
little towns on the railroad for col.
lections, and must have collected in
our country alone 100000. These are
only two instances. but there are
many others.

WOMEN AS FIGHTERS

In the city of Trieste, Austrian in
government, but chiefly Italian in
population, mobs clamoring for war
against the Austrian emperor, made
violent street demonstrations and
nearly all of the rioters were women
of Italian blood. The crowds of
women were so warlike that the gar
rison opened fire on them, killing
over forty. So goes on the chaos of
intensified cruelty and bloodshed,
with even the sex line broken down
here and there in military operations
II the killing in Europe is to be
indiscriminate it is clear that women,
seeing their children mangled with
bombs from overhead, or other new
agents of destruction, will fight for
their offspring. Every funeral OF a
child killed by hostile explosive VIII
inflame the resentment of women and
men alike. and the feminine part Of
a community would soon be under
arms. In Europe generally women
are replacing men in various indus
tries. They are motormen and con-
ductors on the car lines in several
large cities of the continent, and are
planting and reaping the crops. Some
Of the best shots with rifles have
been women. Their courage In de-
tense of their children, not to say
generally. is beyond question.
But what Of the course of civiliza-
tion IL mankind is to be plunged into
this lower depth of bloody depravity :?
The forty women shot in the streets
of Trieste are a part of the hideous
drama Of monstrous cruelty pretend

but loyal admiration. II the COM
