YH t does IL mean when
A the artists and the college
wv and university professors be-
gin tumbling all over each
other to get into the movies or to get the
movies into their schools and studios7
The facetious might promptly reply
that Il means three sighs and one alaek
for the movies but the more serious
minded win see deeper meaning TO the
fact that the famous Professor Muenster-
berg, Of Harvard, the distin guished Dean
DR.. Freeburs. also OF Columbia, and C.
Allan Gilbert, famous illustrator of the
American girl, have all taken the moving
picture to their bosoms and clasping it
feryently there have murmured varied
words Of love into its ear according to
their respective designs upon it.
Gilbert is making shadowgrsphs for
the movies by an entirely new process.
Frseburg is teaching at Columbia how to
write for them. Dean Keppel sees the
time when the colleges and universities
will use them in teaching Professor
champion in the realm Of art.
1t is the movies as an art. even spelled
with a capital A, that Is attracting all
these people. The only person who nov
looks with disdain upon the movies is not
the real artist, the real professor or the
person who is awake to everything in life.
1t Is the person who thinks that nothing
can be artistic or otherwise worth while
unless 1t Is a thousand or more years old.

working meanwhile against a handicap
which would have caused the average
music lover TO despair.
Two years ago Watson was a student
at the New England Conservatory Of
Music, Boston. There he acquired q
technical knowledge of the piano and its

composer, and at present in the museum
of the University of Michigan, was dis
covered by young Watson. He was given
opportunity for inspection, and found
that his own was correct in all excepting
a few minor details.
The clavichord in appearance Is an
oblong box, resembling the upper part Of
a square piano. Arrangement of strings

standard of the flood of photoplays that

desks. Columbia. in its movie depart
ment. will stand as an intermediary be-
tween students who want to write photo
plays and managers who want to buy
them.
''The managing editor who made this
appeal to us is typical of Others" says
DR.. Freeburg, the young playwright and
dramatic coach from Yale. who is at the
head of the course. "He began by say
ing that while his firm receives on an
average a thousand plays week only
that Is, less than half OF 1 per
cent The discouraging feature about
these plays continued the editor, is not
their poor teehnic. The writer's know
how to phrase their stage directions so
that the director can Immediately grasp
their dramatic import. They know how
to place and number such photoplay de-
vices as they insert, the fash back. the
bust, visions, and cut ins. But the trouble
lies in the caliber of these playwrights.
"'They are not creative people. Their
plays are thin and hackneyed. They con-
tain no real Interpretation of life. no grip
ping drama. Their characters are just
like so many manikins whose dress and
department follow a prescribed rule.
They make no compelling revelation Of
human nature.
These writer's seem to have ex-
hausted all the old sources of plots. They
have stolen everything from Aristotle to
o. Henry. They have plagiarized Barrie,
Ibsen, Balzac. No one seemingly whose
stories and dramas were capable of even
a garbled representation has escaped. All
this when they really should have been
competing through this picture medium
with those masters who express them
selves in the medium of the printed page.
The public Is not going to stand
much longer for these outworn plots. You
can't fool the movie public forever. even
Though 1t is big, good-natured audience.
They've got to have things with a new
slant People are getting fed up on the
suspended love affairs of the southern
gentleman and the northern girl who are
separated by the Civil war and finally re-
united after many battles.
Besides, these plots are not typical
Of life. We are not all being separated
from our sweethearts by civil wars. AS
a matter of fact, more Of us are being
separated from them by ten-dollar pay
checks and the price of coal
You've no idea how many thousands
of these scenarios that we go through
have the same plots. The one that l get
most often is that Of brother and sister
being separated in childhood. meeting
years later. falling in love and then dis
covering their true relationship. We
simply must find authors Of more orig
inality and power. / fully believe we
shall find them IL the colleges establish
practical courses in photoplay writing.
Why can't you give course in writing

BERLIN GOES HUNGRY,
SOCIALISTS DECLARE
"GOulash Cannon" Fail to Meet
Demands of Cologne Citizens.

The Hague, July T. Socialist mem
bers Of the Berlin City Council last
Thursday sharply contradicted the
statement of Municipal Physician
Weber that there was no underfeeding
yet in the city. The protest occurred
during a debate on the food situation,
in which Councillor Mommsen declared
that no resident of Berlin was yet
starving. The Socialists took strong
exception to this, complaining of the
shortage of food under the mass feed
ing scheme.
The population of Cologne is excited
over the announcement that mass feed
ing has been postponed indefinitely,
some say for six weeks. owing to lack
of potatoes. The so-called goulash-
cannon travelling kitchens are entirely
insufficient and are besieged from early
morning by crowds of angry persons,
while housewives go dinnerless, the
"Vorwaerts' says.

the message John D. Rockefeller gave
to his secretary to-day on the seventy
seventh anniversary of his birth.
The oil king did not celebrate the
day formally, but followed Lis usual
routine. In the morning he played golf
with DR.. VI. f. Biggar, jr., Captain Levi

at the Forest Hill estate links. lie
was gratifed at winning. His "birth-
day dinner" served at noon. was a
simple meal, consisting mostly of fresh
vegetables. In the afternoon he mo-
tored into the country.
John D. in discussing his remarkable
good health gave out a few rules for
keeping healthy. Here are some:
Be moderate in all habits; take
plenty of exercise and sleep; eat plain,
nutritious food rather than appetizing;
drink plenty of water; don't acquire
fat; above all, don't worry. as worry
destroys blood corpuscles as fast as
the heart can turn them out.
