Xhen you got maybe hundred and
fifty or two hundred thousand dol
lars hung up in a picture. y
But doesn't that frequently spoil
the story?'
"Oh, what's a story?" Mr.. Lane
argued reasonably. People don't go
to see a story when they take III an
Alma Daley picture. They go be-
cause they know they get their
moneys worth when they see a Ben
Culp production that's taken from
some big Broadway success and
costs a hundred and fifty or maybe
two hundred thousand dollars. But
princip ly, Of course, they go to see
Alma Daley, because she's the most
poplar actress on the screen, and
makes more money than Mary Pick
Gord."
There was a sudden deluging OF
the set with waves of articifical light
of a wierd violet tint, falling from
great metal troughs overhead and
beating in horizontally from the
metal stands OF screen, which were
now seen to be banks CT incandescent
tubes burning, with binding glare.
Nor was tins all: shafts and floods
of light of normal hue were likewise
trained upon the scene from a dozen
different points, until the blended
rays lent almost lifelikc coloring to
the faces of the actors, whose make
up had therefore seemed CHASTITY
and unnatural to uninitiated eyes

The command came from King
Laughlin. Lucinda could just hear a
muffled clicking.
Coached by Mr.. Laughlin, who
danced nervously urcn TIE side

The camera was brought forward
and trained at short range on the

The actress lay in a groken heap
with her face buried on her arms,
the camera once more began to click
and Mr.. King Laughlin squatting by
its side, prepared to pull the young
woman through the scene by sheer
force Of his inspired art.
But now the passion which before
had kept him hopping and scream

"Oh, Tommy Shannan" said Mr.,
Lane equably-"Tommy all right,
he knows what he's doing, All you
got to do is let Tommy Shannon
alone and he'll ring the gong every
shot"
but if that's the case, why did
Mr.. Laughlin take so much trouble
to show him-?"

Lane explained Kings all right,
and Tommys Ill r/ht, but if Tom

shows him, and King starts to bawl
him out, Why. Tomm'll just walk
off the lot. And then where are you?
You can't finish your picture with
out your leading man, can you? And
there's maybe a hundred thousand
dollars invested in this proposition
already. One of the first things a
directors got to learn in this game
is how to handle actors"
Il see" said Lucinda thoughtfully.
The way to handle an actor is to
let him have his own way"

suppose the leading man insists on
doing something that doesn't suit
the part he's supposed to play?
That's easy, What's your con-
tinuity writer for?"
Il don't know, Mr.. Lane. You see,

writer is"
Why's he's the bird dopes out the

thing who, only few seconds since,
had been groveling and weeping on
the floor.
As one who finds the resources of
her mother tongue inadequate, Miss
Daley in silence fixed with a porten-
tious stare the back of King Laugh
lin, who, all ignorant of the doom
lowering over his devoted head, kept
on swaying airily to and fro, smiling
his ecstatic smile and measuring the
music with fluent hands.
One of the Daley feet began to tap
out the DEVILS tattoo, she set her
arms akimbo, her eyes were quick
with baleful lightnings, her pretty
lips and ominous line; and ensemble
that only too clearly fOretold: At
any minute, now!
With a smothered grunt, Mr.. Culp
heaved out of his chair and lum,
bered over to his wife, interposing
his bulk between her and the I'M
conscious object of her Indignation.
Whatever Culp said, it proved effec-
tual; for nothing worse came of Miss
Daley's wrath, at least publicly,
than shrewish retort of her head,
and sudden, stormy flight from the
scene.
That's the stOrt of thing you're up
against all time in the fillum bust
ness, d'y'see," sighed Mr.. Culp with
a rueful grin. "a lot of kids, that's

Throughout, or tie floor before
the camera, under that cruel glare
of lights Alma Daley strained her
fact toward the lens and cried as if
her heart must surely break, real
tears streaming down her face-but
cried with fine Judgment, never for
getting that woman must be lovely
even in woe.
While Lucinda watched, a strange
voice saluted her.
In Lanes place sat a stout man Of
middle-age with a sanguine counte-
nance of Semitic type, shrewd and
hard but good-humored.
How d'you do?" he said genially.
"This is Mrs. bruce, amt it? Culp's

OF a sudden Miss Daley missed
her mentors voice, and in the mid
die Of a sob ceased to cry precise
ly as she might have shut off a tap.
In a moment OF uncertainty, still
confronting the clicking camera,
still bathed in the whitening blaze,
she cast about blankly for her runa-
gate director. I hen discovering that
he had, just like a man! deserted her
in her time of trouble to follow a
band, outraged womanhood asserted
itself.
The fiery creature who sprang to
