The "Movie Star" Business Has Been
Overdone; Its Day Has Passed.
By J. STUART BLACKTON, Pioneer Producer.
While the services of famous actors and actresses, of both the so-
called legitimate i?to,r and the silent drama, will always he in demand,
the time has passed when photoplays will he generally written, produced
find directed simply to exploit the ser:ial charms and accomplishments
tf some particular person. That sort of thing has been much overdone
Ly producers in the past, and as a consequence the productions have Buf
fered. The great motion picture-going public lias conw to resent this
policy on the part of tho producers, and it is the taate of this public that
jiroducers must please.
The films of the future will be made from scenarios, either socially
Written for the pictures or adapted from stories and novels of the world's
greatest writers. The productions will not necessarily bs extravagant, but
must he faithful to real life, and the direction of the pictures will not per-
unit the star to carry off all the honors.
J do not feel that it is yet time to write, or even begin to write, any
thing like a history of th:; motion picture business. I believe that the
j)hotodrama of the present and of the future will play an all-unportaiit
fpart in shaping the destinies of the world.
Will the Biff Lone Star State Ever Split
Itself Into Five States?
By W. W. BELEN, of El Taso, Texas.
I Texas has thousands upon thousands of fertile acras of land that are
jet untouched by the plow, and the state could easily support a popula
tion of 50,000,000 people, und yet the census figures just announced show
that it has only 4,(!G 1 ,07 people. One-third of tha population of, Texas
lives in 17 counties, yet the state has 253 counties. The population runs
all the way from 37 in the county of Crane, away out in west Texas, to
!l10,000 in Dallas county. Ten Texas counties showed a 'gain of mora
than 100 per cent in the last decade.
It must he remembered that Texas, when it came into the Union, had
in it annexation treaty a clause providing Hint any time it so desired it
might divide itself into five sfntes and send ten United States senators
to Washington without any action on the part of congress being necessary
It will be many years before Texas divides, but eventually such action
will be taken, though I do not helieva it will divide into more than tv(
Mates. Kven now the int-iv,; of west Texas and east Texas are entirely
dii-.-'imilar.

America Practical and Materialistic,
But Idealistic in an Emergency.
By V. HI.ASCO I BANE 7,, in American Mapaiine.
It is probably true tlmt Americans try to earn moiiev harder Hiid with
lneie vr-istemv than people elsewhere. Americans enjoy moiiev-iiuikiiis;

But Americans have learnisl, also, how to spend numev with grtt
jgenern-itv and for public ami community good. (!n-at universities, mu-
eunt, public libraries and other institutions, established by the legacies
,of wealthy men nod maintained by contributions from men actually living,
,Hre characteristic of "America. The wealthy p-ople of Kurope do not. as

Bl.KSil) tV'
BECAUSE we put the utmost quality into this
one brand. Camels are as good as it's pos
sible for skill, money and lifelong knowledge of
fine tobaccos to make a cigarette.
Nothing is too good for Camels. And bear this
in mind! Everything is done to make Camels the
best cigarette it's possible to buy. Nothing is done
simply for show.
Take the Camel package for instance. It's the
most perfect packing science can devise to pro
tect cigarettes and keep them fresh. Heavy paper
secure foil wrapping revenue stamp to seal
the fold and make the package air-tight. But
there's nothing flashy about it. You'll find no
extra wrappers. No frills or furbelows.
Such things do not improve the snicV e any more
than premiums or coupons. Ar.J :-.v.r.c-..:ber you,
must pay their extra cost or ret lowered quality.
If you want the smoothest, mellowest, mildest
cigarette you can imagin
from cigaretty aftertaste,
It's Camels for you.
