Have Women's Feet
Grown Larger? No,
Shoe Styles Changed

IL believe my feet have commenced
to grow again" said local society
matron to a friend the other day,
'The last time bought hew shoes
they were u half size larger than the
ones before and the pair before that
was half size larger than I us,d

Local shoe dealers, when question
ed about this, said II was true and
explained the reason was u result OF
the style for narrow. long vamped
shoes that has been In vogue for
some years. I'm order To get the
shoes wide enough women must buy
larger and longer sizes" one dealer
said. He also showed that the sho"s
bought by local shoe men today av-
erage at least one size larger than
when the lasts were made short ana
broad.
Another dealer pointed out that
women are getting more sensible
views about shoes and are now buy

CANNOT DASH IT
Scenario Writing Is Hard Work.
Not Pleasure.
Writers Must Submit More Than
Mere Idea.
PLOT THE MAIN THING
THING
Analysis and Study Must Pre-.
cede All Work.
Writing Script Merely Last
Part of the Work.

Have you ever written a scenario
and received for your pains nothing
but a rejection slip?
Frank L. Woods, supervising direc-
tor at the West Coast studio of Famous
Players-Lasky. thinks he knows the
reason-or one reason, at least. 1T is
absolutely necessary that a scenario
be worked out with the same care as
is used in the preparation of novel
or stage play" says this authority.
yet all too many ambitious writers
Of scenarios apparently have thought
that all that was expected of them
was a mere idea. They evidently
thought their duty was done and that
the idea could be worked out by some
body else.
"A young woman Z n our scenario
staff handed to me an original story
that showed a lack of care and devel-
opment. I had noticed that she had
a very clever style of phrasing: that
the language she used was of the type
that should make her successful as a
magazine writer.
az asked her if she ever had tried
to write a magazine story. When she
replied in the negative, 1 urged her
to take the tale she had given me and
make it over into magazine form.
''In a few weeks she brought me a
20. 0O0-word story, well written and
entirely different in development from
Her characters were sufficiently
drawn: where before many of the sit
uation were mechanical, the story now
was logical and convincing. In short
it rang true. And it did this for just
one reason-she had forced herself to
think ou- the development of the plot
fully and painstakingly.
II asked Elmer Harris. who is one
of our scenario writer's, how he
worked out his originals, by what
process the plot was deve1opmed most
clearly. In dialogue he answered
I work out the plot thru dialogue OF
1.-THE various chara cters.'
l I'm other words. he worked along
the lines of stage construction, and
iyou will recall that Mr. Harris was
famous as a writer of stage plays be-
| fore he became a scenario writer.
| My conclusion from these two an6
other experiences is that any writer
for the screen, in his preliminary work
should develop his plot in the medium
with which he is most familiar. II
that way he thinks more readily and
clearly.
Back of it all lies this big truth
That writing an original story for the
tscreen is not merely dashing off ar
idea without analysing it and working
lit out carefully and logically

Appeal to People of Kansas

lumbus, the Young Mems and the
Young Women's Christian Assoeia-
tons, have all united in an appeal to
America for funds to save nothing
less than a whole generation Of chill
dren who unless we came to their
rescue must inevitably perish of cold
and hunger.
1t is true that turnout our country
there has come a sudden. sharp shock
to our business interests. Here in
Kansas farmers and merchants alike
are feeling the results of an unexpected
decline in values.
But compared with every other
country in the world, how rich we arei
How little the great war touched Us
and how little of its aftermath of sick
ness and poverty and death we have
suffered Some of us face the loss of
profits we had expected to make, but
few of us will see our capital depleted
and not one of us but has to spare for
clothing and food.
Let us give out of our abundance,
generously and quickly. Thirty-three
million dollars is the sum total re-
quired. Kansas share of that is
about 100000. There will be no
drive to raise this sum-there is no
time for that It will just be a great
sessing himself-not the least with
which he thinks he can get by" but
the most he finds it possible to give.
Every ten dollars contributed to this
fund means the saving of one child S
life thru the coming winter. Don't
wait to be personally solicited, for
there is to be no personal solicitation;
but hand your contribution to your
local bank or your local newspaper. or

INCOME TAX AFFECTS STOCKS.
Payment Required Sale of Holdings by
Railroads.

The final payment on the federal
income tax on December 5 is respon-
sible for the drop in stocks. which in
cluded Santa Fe stock. on the New
York exchange, E. L. Copeland, secre-
tary and treasurer of the road, be-
Heves.
The payment of the tax required
that the owners of the stock get hold
of many millions of dollars in cash
money. and in order to do so it was
necessary for them to sell their hold
ings, because with the financial con-
dition such as it is at present, they
were unable to borrow the money.
The dumping of stocks on the market
resulted in a lowering of the price, in
the nature of things.
1t will be at least a month before
the market RECEIVERS from the strain,
Copeland believes This is bad time
to withdraw large sums of money from
circulation. since money is SO unusu-
ally tight and It will result in a de-
preston and a tightening up which
will not be recovered from in the
course of few days.
The first of January, however,
should see the strain relieved in some
degree Copeland believes, and the
stock quotations again based on valua-
tions, and not on the emergency of
securing cash with which to pay taxes.

French Scientist
Finds Weight of
Different Kisses

How much would you think a kiss
weighed? Well. say the last one. A
distinguished French scientist, Prof.
Edouard Malespine, has, with TWEEN
tieth century efficiency, found how to
weigh a kiss. according to Marguerite
Dean in the New York Evening World.
To excite identical sensations, Pro
fessor Malespine asserts, it is necessary
to place a kiss equal to the weight of
two milligrams .on the forehead, tenn
pies. nose and cheeks; of three milli-
grams on the palm of the hand; of
five milligrams on the lips.
AS illustration a picture of Fay
Banter is used, Miss Banter as she

the five milligram variety.
