The cop advised pOstponement. At that
opportune moment an excited Italian ar
rived. He threw his arms around the man
with the Mexican makeup and they pulled
some East Lynne" stuff on the corner.
After eliminating Indignation, dialect and
exclamatons this much was learned: joe
Regnata, he of the Mexican hat, was an
italian. He bought the millinery in a down
town store because it had a wide brim. He
had the mustache and trousers in advance.
He noticed that several persons gave him
the bad eye and when he spoke 1t made
matters worse.
Conditions were getting serious when he
was his brother Frank, who could speak
English. The whole matter was straight
ened out before Magistrate Stevenson. who
told Frank to tell Joe that the headpiece
would have to go If Joe desired to keep
away from the hospital or possibly the
Morgue.
Joe parted with the hat tearfully.

FOR GOOD SCENARIOS
President of Famous Players
Takes Steps to Get Stories as
Strong as Stars
Rr the Phntonlay Editor


The crying need Of the movies is ideas.
In their onward sweep they have deVoured
so many novels, short stories ana pays
that the stock of available plots Is about
depleted and the more aggressive pro
ducers are casting about for stories Tor
their pictures Recently William A. Brady
began scenario contest for the World
Film Corporation. Of which he is now man
aging director, and now comes the Famous
Players Film Company with an oller ol
$1,000 each for 100 scenarios suitable Tor
the type of films made by its studios.
This company's campaign for fresh ma
terial is significant because the policy
pursued during it's three or four years OF
life has been to translate successtul plays
and novels into films. The fact that 1t is
now i'm the market for original scenarios IN
dicates that 1t can no longer depend on
the drama and fiction shelves of the Libraries
for it's celluloid fodder
The campaign differs from the usual
contest, in that no prizes Will be given and
that only ideas that meet certain definite
requirements will be accepted. Those that
measure up to this standard Will be pur-
chased at the set price Of $1,000. The oner
will hold good until 100 scripts have been
accepted.
The story may touch upon almost any
subject, though lurid melodramas or stories
of n rolitlcal or religious nature will not
stand much chance. If they are particu-
Iarly adapted to the company's stars
Mary picltford, Marguerite Clark Pauline
Frederick and Hazel Dawn-thcy are apt
to meet with favor
At last a company offers n price for
scenario that is on n par with Its I'M
