They Want To Shine As Movie Stars!
By ZELDA BEDELL.

Oh, DO wish I could act like Nor ma Talmadge, and dance like Dorai- dfnal' sighed pretty little Bridge port girl.
 She is petite, with grey-blue eyes sleek brown hair, with gold glints in it, and when she turns her head to one side or the other, as she often does, she reminds you for all the world of a little sassy fat robinl
 And the little girl of the sigh is in deadly earnest about it, too!
 '1 would work, and work ana WORK" Here she rose to real emo- tiona1 heights. Even now l go to the movies and watch the different cause if I ever AM in the moSies I'll want to know how. the men act, too, won't I?' she appealed.
 And I can dance rather well, too, and I'm trying to learn all can, be cause all the big stars are well edu- cated, aren't they?" she asked.
 I'm only seventeen, so there's lots of time, know that, but do you think ever COULD?"
 'Its my one ambition. Ever since I could think, I've wanted to get into the movies. Not for the money part, either but because I feel that it is the one work that I could be successful in'
 For a little girl (and she won't like my calling her that) she has a rare fund of philosophy, hasn't she? And she likes comedy parts-that is. if she were a screen actress she would like to be cast in those parts.
 ''No vamps for me-" she says, dis guSted1y. "I don't like to see them in pictures. I like people like Mary Miles Minter and Norma Talmadge- there's personality for you, and that's what makes a star-to my mindi"
 If oneness and sincerity of purpose will help to make a movie star, Miss Kathleen AttickS of S4 Roosevelt street, will be one some day. She's a sober little thing, til you say something to make her smile and then-she smiles all overi
 See her curls in the picture. You would know that she admired Mary Miles Minter, wouldn't you?

 Those are to be the passwords for all future literature of the fiction va riety, in the opinion of Edward Mott Woouey, special writer, who visited the LaSky studio in Hollywood re- gently.
 q took advantage of the first op- portunity to go through a motion pie ture studio," said MT. Woolley, who is spending his winter in Hollywood, having recently arrived in the film capital after a journey from his home in Passaic, New Jersey. Despite the reluctance of many writers, magazine editors and others in the literary field to admit the fact" he continued, 'it can hardly be denied that motion pie lures are having tremendous influ- ence upon literature as well as upon the style of drama. Motion pictures Lave made it plain that action, and lots of it, is prime requisite and a most tasty morsel in fiction litera- ture, and the successful fiction of the future must have action.
 Public Is Doing It.
 ''This influence has been brought to bear by the tremendous patronage which the public are paying to mo- tion pictures. They are being edu- cated to like action, to delight in it and to desire it in their fiction, whe- ther it be the fiction of the silver sheet or CT the printed page- Suppose one goes to a motion picture theatre and sees a good snappy picture where all of the characters are continually on the move and where something is happening during every moment of the five reels. Then he goes home, sits in his easy chair which begins to drag along and con tinues to drag along without any | real active. Do you think he will enjoy that book or story? The an-

Are animals intelligent? Do they understand what is said to them? At times it seems as though they are human, especially horses. The horse is like the man who has imbibed too freely of alcoholic stimulantS, no matter how bad off he may be he can it is with the horse Just give him the reins and he will find his way home every time.
 It was this idea that led Holman Day, popular novelist and author of 'tSingle-Handed Sam,' the two-reel feature picture made for Pathe, to write this story and make this partic- uiar conception one of the big themes of the production.
