How do they make those funny animated" cartoons yoo see in the movies? The question is often ask ed, but very little in the way of ex- plantation has found it's way into print. When you watch the gro tesque, yet astonishinS4y life-like, ac- an in the best of them 1t seems in credible that such results can be ac- ries Of pictures, photegraphing. them separately in sequence and proJect1ng them on the picture screen
 What an enormous number of draw ings must be made, so many of them apparently identical, yet necessarily different in some detail in order to produce tho effect of life and move meat in the figures.
 What extraordinary patience on the part of the "anin1ated'' cartoonist-
 Yes, that's the answer. When you were a child, and your Sunday school teacher put the question: 'Who was the most patient nan?" Sure of your ground, you answered "Job.'
 question to an sanimated'' cartoon ist, the chances are that he would answer promptly, T a1n.
 Patience of Joh,
 "You can't get any move out of anl- mated cartoons than you put into them," declares Bert Green, a recog- nized master of the art, who "ani- mates maps and charts and other wise dry statistical tables and d1a- grams in Pathe News. The job de- mands the patience of Job.'
 But the job is important enough for Pathe News to maintain complete mechanical plant for turning out this special produot-inc1uding the pho tographing apparatus with the motion picture camera standing on its head and shooting straight down at the separate drawings-one click of the shutter-when the operator touches the electrical button controlling the mechanism.
 This is another "Job'' part of the iofb Remove the photographed ed drawing-substitute the next one press the button; and do this several thousand times to make a picture that will run on the screen for eight or ten minutes.
 And these "Job jobs'' are steadily increasing in the motion picture in dustry In the eight or ten years since Windsor McCay completed a series of some 10000 separate draw fngs and moved them in procession before the lens of a motion picture camera to illuminate upon the screen an amazing day in the life of 'Gertie,' D the dinosaur, the creations of most of the celebrated comic artists have been subjected to the same treatment.

the daily and Sunday papers, and they are the product of the same type of pictorial genius.
 Process is Accurate.
 There is a sufficient reason for this growing popularity, too. The prin- ciple involved is fundamentally sound. Whatever the artist is able to create with his pen appears on the screen in all it's original perfection, with the tremendous added effect of apparent life and motion. Transfer ence to film being almost entirely me chanical, that part of the process is
 mathematically accurate. The Bristol board actors are not "tenparament- aF'; they always are at their best
 The making of an animated car toon has remained practically a ''one- man job'" All that enters into the creative part of the picture-its scenes and characters and ncfdents-must
 be. done by the same hand De tails of action, however-such as movements of a mans legs in running are supplied by the cartoonists as sistants, called ttanimators." Former ly the entire figure, and also the scene represented, was copied along apparent necessity, for how else would
 complete negative result?
 Not long ago, however. this inn
 mense labor was obviated by the in vention of the "eel1u1oid sheet" "
 which is sufficiently transparent to | enable photographiug through it | changing details of a figure. Thus, 1 if through a sequence of a, score or | more of drawings there is movement i only of the characters head, or arm
 or leg, the "animators" have only to ~redraw the part that moves, the main part of the figure and the whole "set'
 remaining under the camera lens on l the transparent sheet.
 Must Be Mechanically Perfect. This device, of course. demands | that all the detail drawings register" 1 perfectly with the outlines of the fix ed main scene and figures on the eel 1 Iuloid sheet-but that is a simple | matter of mechanical efficiency at the "animator's' drawing. board Out of the art of making animated cartoons have developed many de- vices and so-called "camera tricks that are exceedingly effective, especf- ally in a decorative way. You see a pen with no hand guiding it writing words across the screen, or drawing a picture; you see a monkey frisking across the screen and leaving in the trail of his long tail the autograph signature of the author-aS in the main title of Paul Terry's "Aesopo's
 Film Fables; you see lots of other
 seemingly miraculous occurrences
 most of which accompanied the de velopment of this screen speciality
 whose chief ingredient is ffthe pa tience of Job.''

Ever since a little girl I had been eager to try my luck at motion-pic> lures. In order to satisfy this desire. l obtained a job in vaudeville after Srao ouatlns from finishing school in New York,
 The fact that neither of my parents had been on the stage was a great handicap as I was absolutely fgnor- ant concerning the simplest essen tials.
 After gaining some valuable and interesting experience in one year. on me vaudeville stage, I came out to the West Coast and was given a chance in Christie Comedies My first opportunity to play with Uni, Versal came soon afterwards and I was cast in a Lyons=Moran comedy. Eventually I was given feature roles and finally starred.
 Fire Cat" was the most interesting Ve ever been in, embracing as it ooes,South American atmosphere and an entirely new angle on the eter- nal nal trlangle. i5. We had a wonderful days and weeks in the mountains of that little known land, Lower Cali fornia-
 I hope to become a great star eventually. I don't say this conceit- edly; but my stepfather, who was more than father to me, gave his ilfe to motion-pictures- was killed Tn the African jungles while filming an an exploration expedition for the smithsonian IBstitute-and feel that | owe 1t to him to make good to the best of my ability.
 1le movies are a source of never ending delight to me-there is a eer- ,| tsLlh variety in each days routine that Keeps the career from becoming mon otonouS- 1 earnestly believe the on poht unltleS and rewards are greater thdh those In any other career.

GLASSES OF FOOD.

 Someone said that food has re- gently become fashionable. A few years ago one spoke of what sbe ate-it wasn't considered a polite topic. But nowadays we have come into tte habit of discussing proteins and carbohydrates and especially l vitamines, vitanlins they are sometimes called. These last are particularly fashionable. They are iv. | the new dictionaries; therefore, they are an official part of our language | The old-fashioned and the fippant are apt to scof and say, "Oh well, | next year we will call a vegetable a. vegetab ble and not S5% water and the rest protein and mineral. A cabbage l by any other name will be as nourlsh- l ing" But I hope for the sake of those | who wish to reduce or to gain weight or to improve their health, that the i craze for taking food scintifca11y will last a little longer. | Consider what your body is made of:
 1. Protein, 1870 l 2. Fat, 169o | g. Carbohydrate, 1To
 f. Mineral matter, 59o | 5. Water, 60%o 1 and,
 l G. Vitamins
 These vitamins are vital suf stances necessary for growth. We know that they exist and that without them we Starve to death even though ~e were to fill ourselves with food. Without knowing exactly what they are, we even know where they are found in greatest quantities-that is, in spin ! ach, and the coating of grains, in rich milk, etc. Is food any less enjoyable | because know it's chemical ele- rnents? Why not know which foods are healthiest for us?

GREAT ENDING IN THE DRAMA AT COLISEUM

Ethel Clayton hands a great sur prise to screen lovers at the end oi her new Paramoun.tl Aircraft Pic ture, "More Deadly Than the Male" |" which opened at the Coliseum Thea tre last evening. Right up to the final fade-out, the pretty star has all the appearances of an adventuI ess who, although possessing hus- band, is using' all her feminine charms to keep a wealthy clubman from going to an exciting trip to South Africa in order that she may win him for herself. To prove to her victim that thrilling adventures are not confined to exotic lands, she turns her mountain camp into a Zulu land jungle, stages duel between the man of her heart and her sup posed husband and sets the police on the formers trail with a trumped up charge. But it's mighty enter taining fun while it lasts, though a trifle grim till you learn that the "husband' is really the heroine's brother and that the deception was all that was needed to show the innocent victim that he loved his gay deceiver
