from getting what they want by the
influence OF their grand viziers. sa-

the film producers. not Do you like
this scenario well enough to produce
itF but, Here Is scenario. Have
the goodness to produce It, I. don't
want to know whether you like it or
notn"
Cosmo Hamilton observes that: TN
view of the fact that photography
and lighting have been brought to a
high state of efficiency, and that the
business OF the motion-picture indus
try has been placed. during the past
two years, on firm and substantial
financial basis, IT Is obvious that the
third and remaining factor making
for the success of pictures lies in the
hands of the writing fraternity, on
whose shoulders rests the whole re-
sponsibility. under favorable condi-
tions of providing the great public
OF this and other countries with ma
terial that will raise the standards of
taste ana roster the artistic develop
ment. The moment is ripe, there
fore, for the close and enthusiastic
collaboration of producers and
writer's, so that the motion picture
of the future Will develop into some-
thing worthy to take a high place
among the movements dedicated to
the social development of the peoples
Of the world"
George Ade believes that: "The
author who is depending upon char
scterization and episode rather than
upon a. strong and well sustained
dramatic interest is sunk unless he
does his own continuity and Is pres
ent at the cutting"
Rupert Hughes, who certainly
ought to know, declares that: The
camera is the new fountain pen Of
civilization. 1t can produce stupidi-
ties as well as things of real value.
one way to supply the missing link
between authors and motion picture
makers and to improve the quality of
stories for the screen is to establish
university courses. Just as great
possibilities as the English language
oners for expression are also offered
by motion pictures. We have the
whole world to draw upon and we
don't know how far they can be de-
veloped."
And SO they go on. Obviously.
the problem Is to find the missing
link. Barnum found him once. But
Barnum is dead. Besides, this is a
mental miss. 1t is between the
writer's and the producers. You may
enlist If you wish.

that mound ,of sand were little holes,
and going in and out of those holes
and scurring about in all direction
were big ants. That is, they were big
as ants go. Mother Bear licked her
lips greedily. The three little Bears
licked their lips. They had already
learned to like ants.
This" said Mother Bear, lis an
ant castle. Down under ground are
ever and ever and ever so many ants
Watch me, and Ill show you how to

The three little Bears sat down to
watch. They were very much puz-
zled. They wondered if Mother Bear
would try to dig that ant castle open.
They wondered how she would be
getting a lot of sand with them.
They tried 1t themselves as they saw
ants running back and forth over the
mound, but each time they got more
sand than was at all to their liking
Mother Bear sat down beside the
mound and then dug down into the
middle of 1t with one big paw, and
worked 1t back and forth. and round
and round. Then she withdrew 1t.
and stretched out fiat on the ground
with both forepaws out in front of
her on the edge of that mound.
At once out poured an army of
very angry ants. They were angry
because their home had been dis
turbed. Right away they found
Mother Bears big paws and began
to swarm up along them. They
seemed to know that here was the
enemy who had disturbed their castle.

thorities who very much discount the
personal influence of Empress Eu-

tainly she did not originate any of

Ivy Poisoning.

Every one who reads knows how
to cure a cold in one day, which
seems to be exceedingly fast work
for 1t takes me that long to make
even a tentative diagnosis of what
really ails the poor chap who thinks
he has a cold. The diagnosis of what
purports to be a cold prevents many
possibilities of adventure. but once
one gets line on the case, the treat
ment is very dull, indeed.
With ivy poisoning it is Just the
reverse. The diagnosis-well.t the pa
tfent simply announces he has Ivy
poisoning, and-what's good for 1t?
That is he announces he has II, then,

it meant to be downright busy. That
was when l encountered Rhus toxi-
codendron up the lake. So l don't
blame the victim of this plaint-it Is
a plant, all right-for emitting pune
tuation.
There are three methods of treating
ivy poisoning-namely, prevention
cure and relief.
The prevention OF ivy poisoning
comprises two lines of procedure
First, immunizatfon of the Individual

by internal administration of very

Disobedience.

"Why doesn't my child obey? i
cannot make him mind"
1 don't know, of course, why this
1 know several reasons why a great
many children do not mind"
First and greatest among them is
! that the parents did not start to
teach obedience when the child be-
gan his career. Hes so little,
He cries. I've got to give in to him"
Hes such a nervous childr' He
won't love me if 1 make him do
things" The list continues INTERIM
nably.
To teach a child to respect what
you say and act accordingly, you
have to know clearly what you want
him to do and why you want him to
do it. If you do not, then the child
who sees clearly his own advantage
argues the matter with you and your
reason needs must hearken. You
admit his case and so weaken your
own. Be sure first that the order is
worth while giving and then stick to
When the little one first begins to
get about he has to be ordered al
most continually. That is your duty.
He has no experiences to guide him
and you must save him from injury
or too costly experiment. But even
then think before you command. 1t
is when he Is very young that he
learns to respect your judgment and
feel your loving care in your gov
ernment or the opposite.
A little girl discovered the cellar
stairs one day and decided that she
would creep down them. That was
impossible Her mother told her,
mo, no! Grace would be hurt. Mother
will show you" Then she carried
her down the stairs and back and
shut the door.
Grace could pull herself up by the
doorknob and open 1t. She did this
again and again. Her mother watch
ed her and closed the door and took
her away again and again. Grace
cried and went back as soon as she
thought she had the chance Her
mother gave up the program she had
for the day and made teaching Grace
that she was not going to creep
down those stairs her foremost task.
She lifted her and set her on the
rug and said, NO: said 1t gravely.
Soon Grace was creeping back. When
she had reached the knob her mother
took, her. and put her in her chair
and fasteed the strap across IT. Grace
howled. When she was quiet again
and said she would be good her

Freddie Racket's Joke.

"Hooray!" yelled the spectators.
'Rat-a-tat!" went the snare drum.
Freddie Racket, sitting way up
high on the circus float, in his bright
red coat and hat with gold braid
glistening, made a fine figure to lead
the parade that advertised the neigh
borhood circus in Billy and Betty
Cut-out's back yard. AS he beamed
upon his audience Freddie chuckled
at the thought of the big surprise he
was going to pull the next tine he
rode by.
If you wonder what Freddie has
done with his legs you must remem-
Der that he is sitting in the circus
float which was shown yesterday and
that his feet are safely inside.

way Il Is described, and cut him out. The
