the ancient paraphernalia which they
have employed in the game for CEN

who play standing up around small
high tables. each with its dealer, is
quaint revelation Of the yellow race

Lovemaking in motion pictures is a
new and difficult art. according to
Mahlon Hamilton, leading man for

which will be seen at the Alta the
ater on today.
In making this statement Mr.. Ham

speaking stage and screen. On the
speaking stage he was the original
Paul. the hero of Elinor Glyn'S
Three Weeks"
There is the finest kind of art in
lovenaking for motion pictures.
SAYS Mr.. Hamilton. ''On the speak
ing stage the hero meets the heroine
and saws. i'm "A voice filled with emo
tion: L love you-Ah, love YOU
Will you be mine?' And then the
heroine either presents him with the
'mitten' or accepts him. But in eth
er case she. is able to sob or smile and
tell why.
Now. in motion pictures it is =
different matter When the hero
meets the heroine he must let the
audience know, by his actions, that
he loves her and is asking her to be
his bride. II is the pantomime of love,
pure and simple. And the audience.
in watching a love scene. is more
critical than of anything else. for

Young folks lies a love-chord which
can be made to vibrate truly only by

I riders hat whirled from his head and
he pitched sideways out of the saddle
as If struck by lightning.
A moment later the report of the shot
reached Marie. She glanced over her
shoulder and saw Hardy outstretched
on the ground, ilaccid and inert.
With a suddenness that almost threw
her pony off his nimble feet. she
wrenched him around. The mare had
stopped within two strides. and twist
ed her head about to look at her fallen
master. The manner in which he had
fallen showed that the shot had come
from up the coulee. Flinging herself
from her pony. she plucked Hardy's
rifle out of its sheath and leveled 1t
across the saddle. But she could see
no sign of the assassin, and no sec
ond bullet came whirring across the
cOulee. Without a second look up the
coulee, she bent over to rip the hem
from her underskirt. This gave her Il
bandage. Her own and Hardy's hand
kerchiefs served for a compress. Swift
ly she bound them on the long wound
above his temple and stopped the
bleeding.
When at last he opened his eyes. his
| head was in her lap. He gazed up into
her down-bent face, his mind still in
a daze. A frown of pain creased his
| forehead. dr murnured. in the queru-

| Instlnctivaly her soft hand began to
smooth away the frown with gentle,

restful cOntentment. The girl con-
tinued to stroke his forehead. Sud-
denly his eyelids lifted, and he looked
up with the clear, bright gaze of full
consciousness. He saw the womanly
compassion in her beautiful face. Her
eyes were tender and lustrous with
sympathy for his suffering.

up away from him.

Hardy Strengthened on his knees and
rose unsteadily to his feet. His voice
was as firm as his pose was lottery

Hardy turned his mare down the cou-
lee. Marie, despite his protests, rode
between him and the ridge behind
which she had seen the blanketed
man.
