tons was construed as indicat-
ing that yesterdays reports of a

mature. Another bullish factor
was better demand for domestic

Twelve years ago Bronco Billy
Anderson used to start out in the
morning with a camera, a carload
OF actors and a bright idea. He
wrote the scenario on the back Of
an envelope as he motored to-
wards some likely location" and
then, in the course Of the day,
filmed the entire story. 5
Nowadays 1t takes about two
months to write the scenario
called the continuity in studios
exclusive OF the time taken to
write the original story. But you
can still steal Bronco Billy's idea
OF making a movie told almost ell
tirely in exterior outdoor scenes
Ia feat to which cowboy pictures
lend themselves.
Study your. original story for
several days. and analyze 1t for
dramatic faults. AS you write, the
story will naturally divide itself
into sequences Of action occurring
in various periods Of time IN the
same locality. These sequences
correspond to the acts OF a play
and in a five reeler there are from
10 to 40 of them.
Each sequence opens and closes
with a fade effect, fading in or
fading out. Each progresses to
Its own dramatic climax, SeQuen.
ces are connected with lapse-Of-
time or change-of-locale subtitles
(the written. words on the screen)
such as Zone Hour Later,"or "1n
Jim's Apartments"

ton form. Try to write IT all in

INFANT BAPTIZED E WITH WATER FROM
 THE RIVER JORDAN

Defying the threatening elements and unfaverable weather conditions another large crowd was on hand at the Lyric theatre Sunday night for the services under the auspices of the Independent Presbyterian church; and to enjoy the special musical program by the chorus of 50 trained voices. Among the special numbers rem dered by the chorus under direction of o. Gordon Erickson were the an- them q Beheld. and Lo, a Great Multitude" by Elvey, also the an- them, As Torrents in Summer" by Elgar, while tho offertory solo was Rathbuns. T Heard the Voice of
 Jesus Say" sung by Mrs. May Shackelford.
 The sermon subject of-Dr. Henry M. Edmonds, pastor of the Indepen- dent Presbyterian church was, What of the Church." and during the course of his sermon it was pointed ont that Paul was a firm and uncom- promising believer in the church of Christ and belonged to it.
 "A mans measure Is finally taken by the one great group or institution to which he belongs and to which he gives his hearts loyalty" said Dr. Eomonds. Paul was member of tuo JcWiEH Idttf Dul Ht tduh that III the church. He was q Roman cit to the church. Other relations were secondary. He called the church a building in which believers were stones and Christ the chief corner stone. He called the church the body of Christ and held it up as the great est and most important of all insti- tutions with which men should af- filiate."
 Preceding tbe morning service at the new church. Highland avenue and Thirty-first street. the ceremony of baptizing infants was observed, and the 6-months-old son of MT. and Mrs. Peterson Marzoni. Francis Anthony, was baptized with water from the River Jordan. This water had been obtained by the grand parents of the little infant, MT. and Mrs. Frank F. Glass. on their tour of Palestine last summer, and brought home by them for this purpose.
 In the course of his morning ser- mon, based on the life and teachings of the prophet zachariah, pr. Ed monds pointed~out the need in this day of supporting the men whom the citizens put in public office, instead of, as has happened here in recent years. first electing them by great majorities, and no sooner are they in office than 8 flood of mud and crit icism Is hurled in their direction. T should hate to have any one urge me to run for public office in this day and time" said Dr. Edmonds. after pointing out the fate of city commissioners of Birmingham as well as in g larger sense that of Wilson and now President Harding.
