Symbo]ized Words Will
Make Good Scenarios.
Clara Beranger Says

SYM olizing Words That, says

more recent efforts in William De
Miles production of Miss Lulu Bett"
Producer and scenarist have again
cola bcrated in Bought and Paid For"
a Paramount picture, which Hugo
Ricsenfeld will show at the Rivoli
Theater this week.
"The secret OF good pictures is to
be found in the perfect substitution
of symbols for words" Mrs. Beranger
explained. "The spoken word is the
property of the stage play; even the
written word has very little place in
the photoplay. But in the place of
these words We must have pictorial
symbols.
Substituting symbols for words is
tremendously difficult task--one that
requires imagination coupled with
logged persistence that refuses to ad-
nit failure. Sub-titles should be spar
ingly used; in their places we should
have symbolic pictures.
"The photoplay is primarily pictorial
and dramatic. In the past too many
pictures have been made without re-
gard to these essentials. Many screen
stories We're, and still are, told in mar
rativc form. And by the generous use
of the written word the task of placing
this narrative on the screen has been
simplitied 3 thousandfold.
"Tha really dramatic photoplay TO-
cuses down to almost as few episodes
81 stage play contains acts. In this
ideal photoplay each sequence of the
story is an act. But to achieve this
perfect form requires a thorough
knowledge of drama and the generous
use of symbols.
1--WE followed that line in adapting
George Broadhurst's play Bought and
Paid For in which Agnes Ayres, Jack
Holt and Leah Wyant are playing the
principal roles. The playwright told
the story of corking good malodrama
in dialogue. We picturized that story,
following the original dramatic con-
struction almost in detail, but substi-
tuting symbols for words"

The warden handed him a ticket

Sanders walked slowly out of the
office and through the door in the
wall that led back to life. He was
free. Tomorrow was his. All the
tomorrows of all the years of his

From one job to another Dave
drifted. His stubborn pride, due in
part to a native honesty that would
not let him live under false pre-
lenses, in part to a bitterness that
had become logged defiance, kept
him out OF good places and forced
him to do heavy, unskilled labor
that brought the poorest pay.
Yet he saved money, bought him
self good, cheap clothes, and found
energy to attend night school where
he studied stationary and mechani-
cal engineering.
One day he smiled grimly and be-
gan to pack. When he left, the ex-
pressman took his trunk to the sta
ton. The ticket which Sanders
bought showed Malapi as his desti-
nation.

to rest his cramped limbs. He was
in a day coach, and his sleep
through the night had been broken.
At the junction he took the stage
for Malapi. Already he could see
that he was going into a new world,
one altogether different from that
he had last seen here. These men
were rot cattlemen. They talked
the vocabulary of oil. They had the
shrewd, keen look of the driller
and the w~ildcatter.

CHAPTER XII
Dave whistled. The pony pricked
up its ears, looked round, and came
straight to him. The young man
laid his face against the soft, silky
nose, fondled it. whispered endear-
ments to his pet. He put the bronco
through it's tricks for the benefit of
the corral attendant.

in a voice easy and casual. Saw
Miller a while ago. They're talkin'
about sellin' the paint hawss, him
and his partner. Doble. I'm TO

Dave cinched, swung to the sad
die, and rode to the gate of the r.
raj. Two men were coming in, and
by the sound of their voices were
uuarreling. They stepped aside to
let him pass, one on each side of
the gate, so that it vas necessary to
ride between them.
They recognized the pinto at the
same moment Dave did them. On
the heels of that recognition came

MURDER"
Doble ripped out an oath and a
shout of warming, ITS Sanders"
to a gallop. The silent fight grew
noisy with shots, voices, the clatter
of hoofs. Twice Dave fired answers
to the challenges which leaped out
of the darkness at him. He raced
across the bridge spanning the
Platte and for a moment drew up
on the other side to listen for
sounds which might tell him
whether he would be pursued. One
last solitary revolver shot disturbed
the stiffness.
His flight had no definite objective
except to put as much distance be-
tween himself and Denver as pos
sible.
h Day broke over valleys of swirling
mist far below the rider. The sun
rose and dried the moisture. Dave
booked down on a town scattered up
and down a gulch.
He left Chiquito at a livery barn,
after having personally fed and wa
tered the pinto, and went himself to
a hotel.
Three or four men were standing
or the steps of the hotel talking
with the proprietor.
THAT'S him. the hotel-keeper
said in an excited whisper.
A brown-faced man without a
roat turned quickly and looked at
Sanders. He wore a belt with cart
ridges and a revolver.

Murder"
Dave gasped. His heart beat fast
with a prescience of impending
disaster. Murder" he repeated
duly.
"You're charged with the murder
OF George Doble last night in Dem
ser."
The boy stared at him with hor-
ror-stricken eyes. "Doble? My God,

porch post to steady himself. Tho
hills were sliding queerly up into
the sky.
CHAPTER XIII
All the way back to Denver. while
the train ran down through the
narrow, crooked canon, Dawes mind
dwelt in a penumbra of horror. IT
was impossible he could have killed
Doble, he kept telling himself. He
had fired back into the night with
out aim. He had not ever tried to
hit the men who were shooting at
him. 1t must be some CHASTITY joke.
1t remained with him, in the
Background OF his mind. up to and
through his trial. What shook his
nerve was the fact that he had taken
a life. no the certainty of the pun

1t did not take the lawyer whom
West engaged long to decide on the
line the defense must take. wen
show hat Miller and Doble were
crooks and that they had wronged
Sanders. That will count a lot with
a jury" he told West. We'll admit
the killing and claim self-defense."
The day before the trial Dave was
sitting in his cell cheerlessly reading
a Newspaper when visitors were an

Crawford and Bob Hart he choked
II his throat. Tears brimmed in his
eyes. Nobody had been kinder 20
him than West had been, but these
were home folks.
He gripped their hands. but found
himself unable to say anything in
answer to their greetings. He was
afraid to trust his voice, n he was
ashamed of his emotion.
