Unseen Artists Of The Screen
 A True Story

 really that is but a meager and in prepare the average set of a feature photoplay. How Scenes are Made. The procedure of making our
 scenes is not without interest. First. of course, a copy of the photoplay is sent to my office. I study it care fully, plot out the various things needed and send to the research de-
 partment. There they search the libraries for facts as to the furniture
 and architectural ideas of the period. Then it comes back to our drafting
 room and very complete plans are
 made.
 Our architects are confronted with the problem of 'camera angle,'' dis tinctly an affair of the cinema. We
 must arrange our sets with view to the action. And this is regulated by the distance from the camera At fifteen feet from the camera an actor six feet high would have his head cut | off. We must remember dhis-and see that our backgrounds will not be out of focus, that they will help the scenes atmosphere without being ua duly obtrusive.
 In order to give our actors the ] greatest prominence possible this camera distance must be closely fig y when a story comes along requiring
 an exceptionally large cast. It is in deed a scientific matter to crowd
 more than fifty people in a set-and give due opportunities to the dramatic turns of the plot. And yet we have done it time and again. I have only to call attention to Joan. the Wom-
 an," ''The Fighting Chance,'' 'fWhy Change Your Wife?' and a score of ~ether productions in order to prove this. Decidedly such scenes under
 the head of>"studied art''!
 CoIors Carefully Scanned. Then it goes to~the carpenter shops
 where hundreds of men are employ ed. Once constructed the set is
 carried on the stage, fastened in place. and left to the painters. Once | they finish along come the decorators
 with their little ''blue glasses to tell how drapes of different hue will ap- | of course. it is a real problem to work only in the blacks, whites and grays of the screen. One has to be | careful to avoid blending. Contrast
 must be secured in 6, way that will aid the action without either inter l fering with the appearance of the | players, or attracting attention from | them.
 l ."The Unseen Artists of the Screen" 1" I'd like to have you remember them
 the next time you visit a picture theatre They have worked behind | the scenes with the same artistic zeal you applaud in the actor seen Cn the silver sH eet. They have ~done their 1 bit' to bring the movie Ito it's pres l ent high position.

the collar of Irish 1ace-w1th white embroidered dots over a background of black, these were the features that made one frock that went South so effective.
 And a frock that ,stays-to rejoice the spring maid of the north is of grey with an exaggerated width of skirt 1avishly dotted in blue silk, and cunning sleeves that fulfil their fair owners desire for individuality by be- ing snug and letting in a. bit of puff ing at the elbow.
 Then, of course, there is the -taffeta frock cut on tailored lines. Here the sleeve is apt to be straight and fiaring when it reaches the wrist and the collar of the Peter Pan type of a color to match the hue of the cuffs. Slash pockets do their best to carry out the street effect.
 In the checked taffeta-for wear when weather grows warmer-the e ful1ness- of slSirt is achieved by tunics and panels.

which we have just listened to, al- though it can admit of but one ex- p1anation, has still some distinguish ing features.
 "You have hopes of solving it?" Well, Knowing as much as we do, | discover the rest. You must yourself have formed some theory which will explain the facts to which we have i listened"
 "In vague way, yes" | What was your idea, then?' 'It seemed to me to be ovious that this Greek girl had been carried off l the young Englishman named Harold Latimer.''
 l Carried off from where?" l Athens, perhaps
 Sherlock Holmes shook his head ''This young man could not talk a | word of Creek The 1adN could talk English fairly we'll Inference-that | she had been in England some little l time, but he had not been in Greece
 well, then, we will presume that she had come on a visit to England and that this Harold had persuaded l her to fly with him.
 That is more probable 1 t'Then the brother-for that, fancy, must be the relationship comes over from Greece to interfere He imprudently puts himself into the power of the young man and his older associate They seize him anC use violence towards him in order tc make him sign some papers to make over the girls fortune-of which he may be trustee-to them. This he re- l fuses to do. In order to negotiate
 with him they have to get an inter. preter, and they pitch upon this MT
 Melas, having used some other one | before. The girl is not told of the
 arrival of her brother, and finds ii
 out by the merest accident
 Excellent, Watsonl'' cried Holmes 'T really fancy that you are not fal from the truth. You see that we h,o1t all the cards, and We have only t, fear some sudden act of violence o1 their part If. they give us time W,

 'Bun how can we find where tti house lies?'
 Well, if our conjecture Is correc and the girls name is or was Soph. Kratides, we should have no difficult, in tracing her. That must be our mali

We know that a man is being done to death, and every hour may be vital".
 Better pick up MT. Me1as on our way I suggested. we may need interpreter
 Excellent" said Sherlock Holmes. feSend the boy for. a four-wheeler, and we shall be off at once" He opened the table-drawer as he spoke, volver into his pocket. Yes" said he, in answer to my glance; should say, from what we have heard, that we are dealing with a particularly dangerous gang.'
 It was almost dark before we found ourselves in Pail Mall, at the rooms of MT. Melas. A gentleman had just called for him, and he was gone.
 'fCan you tell me where?'' asked
 "I don't know, sir,'' answ cred the woman who had opened the door; 1T only know that he drove away with the gentleman in a carriage"
 "He wasn't a tall. handsome dark young man?"
 "Oh, no sir He was 9, little gentle man, with glasses, thin in the face, but very pleasant in his ways, for he was laughing all the time that he was talking
 "Come along!" cried Sherlock Holmes, abruptly; This grows seri- ous," he observed. as we drove to Scotland Yard. ''These men have got hold of Melas again. He is man of no physical courage, as they are well aware from their experience the other night. This villain was ablest terrorize him the instant that he got into his presence. No doubt they want his professional services, but, having used him, they may be inchn-i ed to punish him for what they will regard as his treachery.

The Goat Getter.

He stands before one, he stands be- fore all, He hasn't a brain in his second story hall He puts on his hat, he puts on his coat. He knows it's the best way to get our goat. He ought to be taken He ought to be shaken. And out of the show He has to go.

A HEALTH TALK,

There~is an impression that a Turk ish bath is rendezvous for those who have suffered from intoxication That's a. mistaken impression. People begin to realize the immense benefit to health that comes from scientific bathing. Not the bath of the home, but one supervised by masseur, with knowledge of the anatomy. The Rus sian, the Turkish and the Roman baths are distinct. They act differ entity upon the system. There's a reason. Ask Alex Maisel, the expert in charge of the Atlas baths. His ad- vice is free.

You knOwi

You Knowi When to a movie show I go, I like to see it all, And nothing gets my goat so much As when some guy so tall Stands up in front and fusses with his rubbers, coat and hat. I'd like to see some other guy get up and knock him flat, He's seen enough, he doesn't care what other people miss. You know the place I'd like to send a horrid pest like this!

A Little Raging Now And Then
 Is Relished By The Best Of Men!

He didn't make a move to sit down
 or try to get loose But to stand like a marooned "cafa- ,boose,'' And say, 'I paid admission and what do I care' So he put on his rubberS and his coat and started to comb his hair. That was his last show and it pro
 duced his death. Over his grave read: This man died
 when a mob jumped for him; be- fore they could get him out he
 died from lack of breath"
 LOUIS DE CARLO.
 19 Hamilton street. There was a tall stout man, Always amusing us movie fans. He takes an hour to take off his
 clothes, What he deserves is a punch in the
 nose. He's a nuisance for fair And he says, Believe me I don't
 care. I paid my way in Get your family to put me out if
 you kin" He stretches his arms out to yawn Just as if he was getting up from
 bed at early dawn. And when he sits on the chair He gives you a frightful scare Always picking his teeth In order to get out the meat. CHARLES PETRINO, 254 Lexington Ave.

He shut off the view he wavered, In getting his hat and his coat, And mutters of wrath upward Wfth a louder, more menacing note. When he'd settled his coat and his hat, He decided to sit as before, But forgot to turn down the seat where he'd sat, And, my gosh! How he did hit that floor.
