The entry of the author into the pro-

sion on the novels relation to the

cries recently raised is that the action
OF most modern novels is inadequate
to fit their adaptation to the many
reel modern picture. On this point
Rupert Hughes of the new Goodwin
Beach company, Eminent Authors Pic
lures, comes forth with this state
ment:
IF any one says that novels are moi
large enough in scope to provide ma.
terial for full length pictures that per.
son is positively in error. While o.
course there are many novels in which
there Is very little action and a grea
deal of interpretive psychology, the

THE objectionable sin against nov

In almost every case they were so
eager to condense the plot that they
squeezed the soul out of IL. The direc-
tor disguised with the scenario broke
loose and went galloping madly in all
directions, with the result that nothing
remained of the original book but the
names of the characters. Almost all
of our novelists are surprised that the
movies buy pictures from them, con-
sidering how little of their material
they use.
Indeed. condensation will be neces-
sary in The Cup of Fury which is

Finally he came 10 New York, and
not being able to ger a job acting got
one as press agent for a play known
as "A Life's Mistake"-which, Mr..
Dempsey AYERS, fittingly described its
production. All the time he was
"ahead" OF the show, rett,ng $40 a
week and paying his own board bills,
the desire to act was insistent within
him. He kept writing back to the
company asking when they would let
him act. Finally he did, but found the
part--that of bailiff with some six
speeches-little to his liking. Besides,
"A LIES Mistake" was a modern play.
