BUILDING LAUGHS
A LA KEYSTONE
l EXPLAINED

Although thousands of persons writing
nhotoplays throughout the country Know In
a sort OF q vague way that comedy IL much
harder to write than drama, they know this
IS 90 chiefly because they have read 1t some
where.
These writer's believe comedy Is some
thing funny to read instead OF the bald
congtruction work necessary, as was recent.
" explained by Hampton Del Ruth, man.
aging editor and assistant manager OF pro-
ductlon Of the Triangle-Keystone FUN Com
pany, who, with his years of eNpenence as
q writer, both for the speaking stage ana
the screen, spoke upon the theme which
might be called laughs that last"
THE study of the laugh" Mr., Del Ruth
began. u.s. fear. too broad n subject for
me to comment upon In the short space al
lotted TO anv interview"
The man who has been responsible to
Mack Sennett for the stories of the great
comedy company for so many years, was
told something of the countless requests
made by those trying to write comedy, and
was asked for Il general and at the same
time simple rule to follow.
You must build to your laugh" Mr.. Del
Ruth said then. ut is the construction OF
ne story which makes II funny, Let us
take one OF the simplest examples.
"An old man is waiting in his house
for relative whom he is expecting.
A crowd Of boys ring his door bell. then
run. The old man goes to the door ex-
pecting the relative. Perhaps he sees the
boys In the distance and returns to walt
for the relative.
Now we are beginning TO build for
the laugh, / mean a laugh which will
last The old man gets seated again,
ana NE boys ring the bell for the second
ume' The same action Is repeated. The
o'a man is angry as he returns to the
room TO wait for the relative
Inc third time the relative himself rings
ne BELL The old man is sure 1t is the
Doys and goes to the door, opens II and
hith me visitor on the head with club.
This is legitimate. and will be remem.
pefed because we have in our construction
nuilded to the laugh
On The other hand, let us suppose that
ue OLD man enters from the house and the
unexpected happens and he falls down the
a.eps. He gets a laugh; but suppose he
slAIts TO tall. catches himself for a second,
.hen ialls. There are no laughs here, be-
cause those who laugh are only laughing
~ me mans misfortune. 1t is the treat
nenE OF the incident that makes laughs,
M II Is the manner In which the In.
..asns ,.n,n Is treated which makes a laugh

Allowing one-quarter of an inch t. a

Writing at a fair speed, it would take

Typewriter and typesetting ma
chine operators write "to-day," "to-

age of four times each or about a
quarter of a million typewriters and
about three times daily for each word

ounce pressure is required to oper-
ate typewriter and linotype key, an
aggregate of about 352,97l foot
pounds Of energy wasted on a prac-
tically useless character, The same
amount of energy would draw a train
across Europe.
Of further interest is the useless
waste of ink and paper in writing hy-
