Mechanical Movie
Camera Now Used

Hollywood, CAL, May 6.-Mechan-
ical genius, as we'll as the creative
powers Of dramatic art which flour
ish in this moving picture colony,
has given a third hand, mechan-
ical one, to the moving picture pho
tographer.
Heralding the days when the pop
ular conception Of the photographer,
intently turning a camera crank with
his cap twisted about on his head,
will be gone, motor driven cameras
have recently been placed in opera
tion.
The device is a small motor attach
ed to the camera and connected in
such way as to insure regularity
OF speed. A press Of button on
the tripod lends the desired speed,
while the cameraman turns his at
tention elsewhere until the scene is
Shot" The pressing Of another
button stops the camera.
While the "third hand" directors
say, insures regularity Of speed more
effectively than the most expert
cameraman, the attention of the
photographer, once taken from the
camera, may be directed to lighting
effects, which are considered his
most important assignment.

\ definite drift from the farms to the urban Ger

state census, published in The Capital Friday.
The estimated figures. based upon the census re-

have left the farms for the cities in the last five

This loss to farm population is indeed serious
problem. 1t shows that there is a real genuine dis

state. Undoubtedly that dissatisfaction is not as

five years-the period covered by these figures bu,

from Jersey City or Brookl.n and
running out to sea. They shoot
streams of grain, flour, oil, lumber,
motor cars, everything and anything

Then there are the constantly NOV

commuters demanding fast service,

boats, private motor launches, bargcs,

Not even dense fogs can stop the

Ono person, at least. in this great
city has not forgotten that there
are horses that must haul and sweat
in these hot summer days.
And SO there are cool places for
the remaining Dobbins. though not
as many as gasoline stations for the
motor trucks. Scattered about the
city at pivotal points are II water
! ing stations where 10000 horses per
day stop to drink and cool off.

these would long since have gone out
