WHAT NOT TO WRITE ABOUT
By Dorothy Farnunl

subterranean orgy was planned to show
q reaction on the husband. He. who
before his marriage. had been the life
of the party felt only disgust for the
things which had tempted him before
the great love came into his life. This
was the best possible example of the
influence of good woman upon heI
husband,
Third Stories which would encour
age boshevism or anarchy. Mary Rob
erts Rinehart's Dangerous Days
portrayed riot and sedition wildly, but
stamped them out with a stern hand o'
disapproval
Fourth. Stories written around a dis
tasteful situation, such as murder un
der unusual circumstances, or rail
road wreck portrayed simply for its
horrors. Such a story will never, under
any circumstance. be produced.
Fifth. Stories which cast aspersion'
on any religion. The tale of q nun who
| breaks her vow and leaves the convent
for lover may be dramatic, but such
would be outrageously offensive, The
spectacle of the Holy Rollers rolling
down the hill 10 expiate their sins may
be comical. but sincerity OF purpose ia
any form whatever merits better treat
ment than disrespect.
THIS is simply dramatic courtesy
photoplay poIiteness The same il
true Of libels on persons, places or in e
duStries
Sixth Stories showing the technica
| nature Of committing a crime Prep
arations for murder or robbery. The
distilling of a poison for a victim
Cruel practical jokes, unkindness tt
animals or pranks which, if practiced
might be injurious to youngsters.
Seventh. Unpatriotic themes.
Eighth. Stories meant to justif
malice or revenge. This does not mean
however, that your hero or heroine ma
not assume the role of destiny an
wreak Gods own vengeance on som
one who merits punishment.
Regulations may be even more striC
than this in the future, when all tn
new censor bills are put into effect,
But there is one thing which tn
chaperoning censor should not be al
lowed to forget while he is markin

that is that Phoenix may rise froi

IRA LOWRY. the director general Of
l. the fleetwood company. says he
doesn't care If the contest stops right
now.
II think you already have three girls
who would be perfectly satisfactory.
he told us yesterday, as he looked over
the pictures that have come in.
The best part of this contest is that
the fleetwood plant is so near to Phila-
delphia that the winners can live right
at home while they are getting their
training and making their films.
But there's one thing that we want to
emphasize right at the start.
That is, that it is practically useless
to send in little ping pong pictures
and amateur snapshots. You must re-
member that most of the contestants are
submitting photographs taken by skilled
studio men and these men. naturally,
have all the lighting and posing facili-
ties needed to make the subject appear
at her best.
You are in contest to become a sub
ject in motion picture studio and in
such a studio these facilities are or the
very highest quality and the manipula
ton of the cameras is done by men who
are famous for their success.

n we have found a number of amateur
snapshots, which indicate that the SUP
ject is probably a mighty attractive glri'
but the pictures utterly fail to present
