The photoplay is q feld OF literary
endeavor which has had, up 10 the
present time. little help from educs-
tors. Those photoplaywrights who
have succeeded have done SO
through their own natural ability
and have stumbled. as il were. upon
the technique OF this new channel
of expression.
1t is now no longer necessary that
each writer should have to carve
his own pattern in cinemstic en-
deavor. The technique OF the seen
srio. flexible and progressive though
il is. is nevertheless definite enough
In its present usages to be set down
in more or less permanent form.
The writer OF photoplays must have
natural ability, prolific ideas, versa
tility and ingenuity. But in addi-
tion 70 all these he must have COM
plete mastery Of his craft.
Writers of fiction, Of drama and
of photoplsys who have never been

DUN,s WEEKLY REVIEW.

New York. June S.-Dun's to-
morrow will say;
another month has passed
without general recovery in bust
ness, but conditions are steadily
working toward a stronger and
sounder basis. Changes that arr
essential to revival have long been
in progress and there is hope that
a more decisive turn for the better
will be witnessed after the ending
of summer. With special causes
for hesitation, the present situation
is marked by waiting in many
quarters, the disposition being to
defer important action until nee
essary establishments have been eX-
tended. While exceptions to TINS
policy appear in certain instances
where liquidation has seemingly
been completed, the attitude OF
most buyers is reflected in thelr
disinclination to operate
beyond immediate requirements,
future price considerations being a
factor. That the yielding in some
has been checked is
evidenced by the smaller number
Of declines in Duns list of whole

Whenever New Mexico is once sold to the
New Mexicans they win "sell 1t gradually TO two

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
WOMAN CAN DO 1T.
(From the Cincinnati EnqulrerO


Among recent valuable and soundly sensible
public utterances must be reckoned certain obserVa-
lions of Frank Commerford special prosecutor in
the trial of Chicagos dillettante socialist, W. Bross
Lloyd.
It is Mr.. Commercials conviction that the
women Of America can counteract and destroy all
Red propaganda which seeks to break down the
will to work among the laboreing men of the
United States.
They can do it. 1t is reasonable to believe they
will do it as soon they become thoroughly fam
liar with all the facts incidental to the sinister
purposes of the enemies of constituted govern
ment.
When the women of the nation are advised in
the premises-and they rapidly are becoming
grounded in ESSENTIAL knowledge and facts-there
will be no danger of seizure OF this govern
ment by violence The intelligent women of this
country never will encourage that general strike"
which is the hope of every parlor, political and
anarchist socialist in the world 1t is out of such
chaos that the reYoutonists expect to build their
varied and various Utopias.
Woman does not minimize the value of her
own intuition, 1t is not reason alone that informs
her that her high estate only can be assured
through the perpetuation of that liberty which
willingly recognizes the safeguarding restrictions
of the law.
Every intelligent woman knows also, these
things: that the home is the absolutely essential
base unit of liberty-guided and law-governed civ
zation, and that out of the midst of the social
chaos sought by the propagandists, small group
of individuals only would profit that all socialistic
devices. schemes proposals and dreams inevitably
tend to lessen that reverence for and
womanhood, for home and children that now Is
offered to. them BY the strong men Of the strong,
clean nations.
