Tho most progressive MIN manu-
facturers are looking for radical
changes In marketing methods during
1921 and also for log strides OF ad-
vancement In the mechanical end OF
pictuYe-making during the coming
year.
-JudxfnS by present Indications"
says John W. Mckay, general manager
of the Mayfiower Photoplay corpora
tion, ~we may look for some very
revolutionary methods OF photography
next year. In fact. II ! may venture
prediction, the greatest progress in
the picture field will probably be
made along this line.
Inventors and scientists have been
actively prospecting the f1eld of color
photography this year and very like
iy some startling achievements will
be announced in 1921 as a result OF
these experiments"
In the opinion OF DIR. MCKAY there
can be no question that the next great
step forward for the motion picture
will be the perfection of color photog-
raphy. With this end In mind, lab
oratory experts at both the East ern
and Western Mayfower studios have
been working diligently in the hope
or solving the problem of producing
natural-coior photoplays that will
have commercial value.
although a number Of color photog-
raphy systems have been developed
this year" explained Mr.. Mckay,
none has been wholly satisfactory.
The method has been either imperfect
or so expensive as to render 1t i'm
practical for commercial purposes.
And until perfect cosor pictures are
produced cheaply enough to make
feasible their marketing on "a large
scale. we can never have picture plays
in anything but black-and-white
photography"
The Mayflower Corporation. accord
ing to Mr.. Mckay, expects to set aside
a fund to finance laboratory expert
mental work during the coming year,
the idea being to perfect a color film
now in the experimental stage that
can be sold to exhibitors at cost
equivalent to what they now pay for
black and w ite and that can also be
shown without changing present
equipment of picture theaters.

ToweIing Coats and Capes

When sitting on the sand with the

essential to comfort. The toweling
coats and capes are ideal for this pur-
pose. Their great advantage lies In
the fact that they are absorbent and
may be put on over a wet bathing
suit without spelling the wrap. Max
ers Of bathing clothes have concen-
trated this year on making toweling
wraps very pretty. Many Of them
are actual coats with loose sleeves.

upon them. But the agitation for II,

women to a whOle-hearted belief in
the Justice and the deSirability of wom-

Of women have the privilege of voting
they are asking themselves just how
they are going to go about exercising
IL intelligently. Likewise Sundry pol

women will make this new power felt
as something to be carefully reck-
oned with.
About the first thing that concerns
them is familiarity with questions that

zens-and as women. They have had
much experience in wOmen's clubs and
through them have brought about
many noteworthy reforms. lt Is
through these already established or
CARNATIONS that they can carry on
campaigns of education for them
selves and for others. Regardless OF
this or that party, women must make
up their minds as TO what sort OF
legislation they want and then under
take to get it by means OF political
parties. In local and in national az
fairs they must first inform themselves
as to worthwhile issues and help TO
inform others. 1t is a game of public

keeping an eye on the performance OF
men in office and public officials of all
sorts and keeping informed, through

the crop that resulted from the

Boyd. The potatoes are very large,
smooth and as pretty as can be,
and when they are cooked are
white and mealy, just the kind
that please the one who cooks
them. They were raised on the
Perry place just one and one-half
miles up Chicago creek.
No. this is not for advertising

for their own use, but we wan1
