therefore, is 10 reach the new standard
which does not exist, and, if ! do reach
that, then to strike out again for a
still higher point. This is, in the best
sense, giving the public what it wants.
Because the public reads lot of trashy
fiction il does not follow that this trash
holds a higher place in the public
esteem than the works OF Victor Hugo
and Dickens. 1t is in greater evidence,
that is all. But whenever modern
writer even approximates the deep hu-
manity Of these two novelists he wins
instantaneous recognition. There is
not enocgh good literature to satisfy
the public demand for reading matter.
80 there is not enough good photo
drama 10 fiji the demand, and so the
nublic takes the next best, because 1t
insists upon seeing pictures, just as 1t
insists upon reading. But the success
OF the companies which have MADE
definite effort to bring their produc-
tions IN 10 an artistic point shows that
the public has no set ideas of what 1t
wants. or at least that those ideas can
not be measured by the perpetual sue
cess of unworthy productions.
For example, it may be said with
certain show of reason that the public
does not want tragedy. The truth is
that the public does not want stories
or pictures which merely end unhap-
PLY, without any deep, human reason
for such an ending. War Brides is
tragedy, but there is good reason for
that tragedy reason based upon
actual occurrences in European coun-
tries at the present time. The public
has shown that 1t wanted War Brides
as a vaudeville play, and"--
Hold on, Mr.. Brenon-your purpose
is now perfectly clear. You want to
sin in a little something about WAR
Brides" being wonderful film, and

PICTURE MACHINE FILTER.

An inventor in Columbus, Ohio, has
~ecently placed on the market a device
for eliminating eye strain caused by
motion pictures. This result is sought
by placing a filter screen directly IL
front of the ordinary lenses in tho
nicture machine. Popular Mechanics
describes the filter, which is made OF
especially treated glass and has
slightly amber hue. II is held securely
in a metal frame and can be attached
to to any projecting outfit. All light from
the electric arc passes through 1t on its
way to the screen, thereby altering out
thc ultraviolet rays which some be-
ieye to be responsible for the strain on
the eyes that arises from viewing mo-
ton pictures.

Herbert Brenon has been talking
again. In a careless moment somebody
asked him whether he believed in CIV
ing the public what it wanted, and Mr..
Brenon replied, in part, as follows:
at is impossible to give the public
something it doesn't want, much less
selling il that something. But this does
not mean that it is necessary to travel
in the old, deeply worn ruts. In photo
dramas, as in all other arts, there are
certain fundamental things that appeal
10 the public universally. The primal
passions and emotions that are the
basis Of poetry and painting cannot fan
to attrac. the public. because they are
deep-rooted in the human conscious
ness. The photo-drama Is simply the
modern form Of expression. Therefore,
50 long as the artist deals With truth
he is bound to give the public what 1t
wants. always has wanted and always
will want.
Usually, however, when you speak
of giving the public what 1t wants you
refer to the superficial and cheap form
IF motion picture, because that is what
the public has seemed to want. AS a
matter Of fact, that is not true. The
majority Of motion pictures have been
bad when judged by any standard Of
he other arts, just as the majority OF
the locomotives built fifty years ago
are bad when Judged by the standards
IF modern mechanics. Each new art
must evolve its own standards, and
every one knows that most Of the worst
motion pictures of to-day are better
han most of the best ones of five years
ago
what I am always trying to do.

The following description Of every
day life in the Keystone studios was
written by Ralph II. Spence. editor of
"The FL Psso Tex Times:
"Mr Sennett sits at mis- broad desk
in Los Angeles and personally inspects
every package of squirrel food turned
out by the Keystone factory. Nary
foot Of celluloid goes into the market
until he has reviewed it personally IN
the Keystone projecting room. If Ros-
coe Arbuckle pulls a scene with gig
gle in II that might have been made
into something stronger, Mr.. Sennett
is quick to recognize the opportunity,
and sends that part of the film back TO
TIE director with note something like
this: Scene 43 gets by as giggle-
coaxer. but il seems to me that Fatty
ought 10 get a guffaw out Of this.
Have him try hanging from the ceiling
by his left car. The action should fol-
low like this: As ceiling fan reyolves
rapidly, Fatty swats Fred Mace IN the
solar plexus with his right kick; Fred
turns a back flip out through the door
his pants catching on the trigger of
Krupp gun. The Krupp gun, having
been treated thus roughly, goes OIL.
Populace hearing report of Krupp gun
thinks il is sunset gun and goes to sleep.
| While populace rests in arms of Nor
( pheus, hero and heroine make es-
cape
upon receipt Of this the director
feeds Fatty Arbuckle saucer of as
sorted nuts, after which the 'retake'
begins. Of course, there might be a
slight delay in the absence of a Krupp
gun. In that case Mr.. Sennett ar
ranges an armistice between the Euro
pean heavyweights while he borrows
Big Bertha from the Kaiser"

Florence Walton is said to break the
long distance gown-wearing record IN
'"The Quest of Life" Not long dis
lance gowns, exactly, but you under
stand what is meant. The point is
that she wears twenty-five different
gowns in the course Of the film, and
she challenges the movie actresses of
the world to tie the record. One Of
the gowns, worn for only two scenes,
cost $500, and another cost nearly
800. And Miss Walton has consumed
two weeks just changing dresses.

The National Board of Review, in
discussing "The Unnecessary Use OF
Liquor" advises the film manufactur-
ers as follows: "a great deal Of pro-
miscuous drinking is now shown in mo-
ton pictures when entirely unnecessary
for any dramatic purpose. For ex-
annie. if two men meet on the street
they dash into a cafe for drink; in
clubroom scene the principal occupa-
ton Of club members appears TO be
constant drinking. Advices reaching the
National Boards Office indicate seri-
Gus objection TO the constar> drinking
shown in motion pictures. We urge
YOU TO eliminate all unnecessary drink
ING incidents"

Drink From Fred j.
Krieger, Today.
ARRESTED BY SHERIFF

Corpus Writ is Issued
in Case.

When Phil Nickel pushed ten
cent bottle Of Leisy beer across the
bar Of the old saloon at No. 2 South
Water street and Fred j. Krieger laid
down dime and picked up the bottle,
the fight to test the validity of the
repeal Of the mulct law in Keokuk
was begun. Surrounded by crowd OF
thirsty friends, Krieger opened the
bottle and drank the contents. There
was sigh as the last drop disappear
ed. and the crowd inside the saloon
building filed out. Sheriff John G.
Scott Witnessed the sale. and immed.
lately made his way to the office of
County Attorney e. w. McManus. to
ask for the Information. and to make
the arrest OF Nickel. Just before II
0'clcck Nickel was placed in custody.
There was big crowd In front OF
the saloon at Number 2 South Water
street some time before 10 o'clock
came. They wanted to see all that
there was to see, and some Of them
admitted that they hoped there might
be drink on the house. In this they
were doomed to disappointment as
only one drink was to be sold, and
that by Nickel, who is making the
test, to Krieger.
sheriff Scott was on the Job Just
before 10 o'clock AS the clock was
striking the hour, Nickel and Krieger
were seen coming down Main street,
and the crowd was busy looking at
them and jolly!ng both of them Some
one suggested that minors were not
allowed In saloons, and the sheriff
cautioned Nickel about allowing any
minors In the building. AS soon as the
door was opened. there was mad
vrush. It bad been ten long days since
They had been inside saloon, and
they wanted to sniff the atmosphere,
hnd OF course the crowd was curious
ito see the sale.
10 Given Bottle.
krfeger walked up to the bar and
pushed dime across the counter He
called for bottle OF beer. and 1t was
produced by Nickel. who handed 1t to
Krieger. The bottle disappeared in
Kriegers pocket. Krieger consumed
the contents. surrounded by crowd
|of thirsty non-combataRfs.
Sheriff Scott walked out OF the
building, and Nickel and Krieger fol
lowed. The crowd was dispersed, and
the sheriff got into his car and drove
to the Office of County Attorney e. w.
sMcManus, asking for an information
against Nickel. Armed. with this he
