BY JAMES w. DEAN,

New York, Jan. al was talk
ing with Rex Beach about the NOV
les the other day. Or rather he was
talking to me because 1 was very
interested listener-interest be-
cause his views on the motion pic
ture vary so much from my own.
This is what Beach said about
the movies:
The biggest development immedi-
ately ahead in the movies is the
chapter feature. Stories will be
told in lengths of 20 to 80 reels in
installments of five or six reels.
The most important feature of
popular magazines is the serial
story. They create continuous in
terest. The installment feature
film will stand for the same thing
in the movies.
There isn't much in this talk
about the movies developing a dis
tinctive form of art.
Most pictures now are too short.
They are simply separate episodes
with little sequence of action.
voice, cannot definitely establish
his or her character in two minutes
as is done on the stage.
The motion picture varies, only
from the printed story in that it
tells its story with captions to sup
ply what incidents or atmosphere
is lacking in the picture whereas
the printed story uses pictures to
supplement what is lacking in
print.
1 believe the development of the
chapter serial, the first of which
will be The Mistress of the World"
will be an important development
in the movies, but not the most
important Popular periodicals
would lose heavily in circulation IL
they carried only continued stories.
1 believe many plays today are
too long. Some of the best 1 have
seen have been in two reels-"The
Northern TRAIL for instance.
1 believe the motion picture will
create a distinctive form of art
That was promised in THE Cabinet
of DR.. Caligari."
A character on the screen can
establish itself in two minutes. Pola

Wilson established herself as Miss
Lulu Bett'' at a single glimpse.
A photoplay is more than a ser
les of pictures with explanatory
subtitles. 1.-The Journeys End" con-
tanned no subtitles Lubitsch, the
German directorial genius, told me
that he thought the day was not
far distant when a form of motion
picture would be evolved that
would require no subtitle.
Beachs views are interesting
principally because, he was one of
the first of the better known
authors to turn his attention to the
screen. 1t seems to me that his
views are still more those of
writer than of a photoplay creator
even though he spends much of his
time in the studio.

What Anita Got for Christmas.

All John Emerson gave his wife
for Christmas was a receipt for the
payment of her income tax. This
may not sound like a very import
ant gift until one reflects Mrs.
Emerson is Anita Loos and what
she earns each year is enough to
add a tidy sum to the government
treasury. Anita said she liked that
gift better than a string of pearls
because now she can feel all she
earned is her own without having
to cut in and give Uncle Sam a
large slice.

But it isn't like an ordinary trunk
in either style, make or purpose.

Toms boots, and it was sent to the
famous Fox star by an English
noblewoman who is great admirer
of Toms pictures. 1t was pro-
duced by Peal & Co. of London, and
is said to be the only one of its
kind in this country.
Splendfdly made of the finest
grade leather, tan in COLOR this
trunk has proved fascinating OBJ
ject of interest to the members of
Toms company. The top tray is
equipped with every device for
keeping boots clean and fresh. and
below is roomy space for several
pairs of boots
Now that she is Mrs. William S.
Hart, Winifred Westover is not
anxious to remain in pictures. Ac-
cording to her most recent an
nouncement, she will adhere to
private life. Nevertheless, she may
make an exception once in a while
and play in one of her husbands
pictures.
