THOMAS TELLS Of
HIS TRAvEL0GUE
Noted Traveller and Lecturer
Describes How He Furnishes
Real Entertainment.
by LOWELL THOMAS.

There are immense possibilities in
the travelogue, but there Is much 10
be taken into consideration.
There are certain items that con-
tribute to success, and unless these
are practically perfect the show VIII
fail. A million people have now seen
The Last of the Crusaders" so one
may pardonabiy assume that the
travelogue Is good. but 1t would be
safe to say that not the tiniest per-
centage of those people have anal
yzed the various elements of the per-
Torrance, and there is no need that
they should.
They pay to be interested and
amused.
In the first place there are the pic
lures.
Pictures Must He Best.
Whatever the subject, these must be
the finest obtainablc. 1 do not pose as
a camera man. but the years / spent
In the Yukon and Alaska with sew
enty-five-pound camera on my back
taught me a great deal 1t gave me
an eye for a picture, and that Is an
excellent asset. 1t is no use planting
the operator anywhere and telling
him to crank the handle. Results are
the great thing. and these can only
be obtained with experience and much
care.
The camera man himself must be
an expert. 1t would not be an exag-
geration to apply the adjective super
to the man who assisted me in the
Enst.
Having obtained the pictures, the
question of putting them on the
screen is the next consideration. 1T
may surprise people to know that
three machines are used to project
the pictures of my travelogue, and
that the operator performs as many
as twenty-one movements in one min
ute. II that man failed me in any
way the whole performance would be
ruined. He is an essential part, and
his training must be perfection. The
pictures and the talk must be per-
fectly synchronised. This is not no.
ticeable when things are running
smoothly, but If hitch occurred the
audience would soon realize that
something was wrong.
Personality Necessary.
Then there is the man. OF this il is
difficult to speak. because of the per-
sonal side. One thing, however, is
necessary He must be
able to impress, interest. and amuse
his audience. believe in floating my
philosophy and fact upon sea of
humor. Do not allow the audience to
think for one moment that they are
being lectured. Outside schools and
colleges, it would prove fatal. The
hall where the talk is to take place
must be considered. Every hall has
It's own distinctive personality. Voice
Is another important item, but one
could go on almost ad minimum emu
merating the various points that con
tribute to the complete success of a
travelogue.

To insure victory and prevent any
Republican inroads. the Democrats

A night vote was polled in the
