Why Scenarios
Are Not More
Often Accepted
- What is the reason why so very few
original photo plays are accepted by the
picture makers?
Tne ansuer is want , of Intelligent
though, proper and necessary study of
the ..tea of the motion' picture, rank
stupidity and carelessness ; nay, abso
lute ignorance, according to Frank E.
Woods, supervising-- director Famous
Players-Lasky company.
wiiun ti.ii uuiuuv a rues a novel or a
lory,' he gives his work a world 1 of
thought and knows that unless his work
Is good, his plot, dialogue and action are
thoroughly interesting, he . has little
chance of getting an editor to accept it
and will add and alter his manuscript
Until he feels it is almost flawless and

- The maker of motion pictures are not
irvHteU iu the same way. It is no use
ttiiiicing matters; it is a proven fact
that the same , care, study and respect
are not shown. to them, and Xhe retult
is mat authors and writers complain
j. ut the picture people do not want
their material and treat it with scant
consideration.
NATALIE, Constance and Norma Talmadge gathered at
New York preparatory to the departure of the latter two
for a. tour of Europe. The older sisters sailed aboard the
Mauretarua, leaving the younger, girl, to whom; at the photo
graph shows, they bear striking resemblance, to enjoy "herself
at home. ,

indication of becoming famous as a

"As on every previous occasion within
the past decade there was that strangely
mingled gathering of muslo lovers and
the general who ever do honor in throngs
to the gifts and the amazing popularity
of the Celtic tenor. None perhaps, can
so attract the multitude of people as
doss McCormack."
