sorts of things are suspected, they
would draw better than the most pop
ular dramatic attraction.
Imagine, for example, how people
would delight in learning that Mrs.
Brown stints her children's food in
order to buy herself clothes, that the
Jones cook is always threatening to
quit unless she gets six months back
wages, and that Robinson has to
give his wages to his wife the minute
he gets home on payday.
People are interested in things like
that. If they knew they could see
them at the movies, the houses in the
suburban and rural towns and villages
where folks are really neighborly
would be packed all the time. fhe
only trouble is in perfecting a movie
camera which can take pictures right
through stone and brick walls, and
combining it with a recording APP
paratus which can reproduce conver-
sations. But these are mere meshani-
cal details which can be worked out
with little trouble. The idea was
mine, and when the first home movie
is installed I am going to claim my
million-perhaps two million dollars.

behavior. The reels would be still
more popular if they were local, so
they would give neighbors a view OF
neighbors, destroying the privacy OF
life which is so aggravating.
For example, instead OF starting a
news film with the title: "PRESI-
DENT COOLIDGE GREETS CHIEF
OF ARAPAHOES ON WHITE HOUSE
STEPS I would begin the line:
JOHN SMITH BEATEN BY HIS
WIFE"
The picture would begin with the
view OF the pretty vine-clad Smith
cottage, Mr.. Smith seen advancing to
the front door with a determined look
He is observed in the front hall,
throwing his hat and coat on a
chair. Subtitle:
WHY THE DEVIL ISN'T DINNER
READY?"
Next he enters the living room,
finding Mrs. Smith engaged in q
bridge game with three girl friends.
The line above is repeated
The girl friends rise and register
embarrassment.
Mrs. Smith approaches her hus-
band and shifts his breath.
Sub title:
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT
'STUFF?"
Mr.. Smith advances threateningly
and points to the bare dining room
open door. Subtitle:
"I'VE HAD A HARD DAY AND
I WANT TO EAT"
After this line the three girl friends
hastily make their exit. Mrs. Smith
regards her husband stonily. Sub
title:
80; OFF THE WAGON AGAIN"
Mr.. Smith makes a menacing ges-
ture Mrs Smith seizes poker and
belabors him with it, Subtitle:
l"AND SO LET US LEAVE THE
LOVE NEST"
Now, a, scene. of that kind would be
genuine, as far as the case of quite
number of, John Smiths are con-
cerned, and it would satisfy the
curiosity of everybody who knew the
Smiths as to what goes on inside the
house after they have observed Mr..
Smith coming home with a Slight tilt.
Furthermore, it would be authentic,
whereas the reports of the three girl
friends might be set down to malicious
gossip.
BY reporting the ordinary daily oc-
currences behind the doors OF private
homes, the new style news reels would
have g. compelling attraction. And
in case of public notoriety, where all
