To feave money spend IL That Is
ldly becoming the movies' motto.
At any rate William A. Brady has
fcdoste-d It nlong a. bit with his new rfll-atnr
productions for the World program. For
Husband and Wife." Mr. Brady itav
Director Barry O'Neill tho services of Ethel
Clayton, HolbrooK Bllnn, Emmltt Corrlffan,
Oerda Holmes, Montague Lovn and Dion
Tltheradce. Instead of meaning an added
cbst In production because of the larger
ealary list, this step feaved the World money.
FSr tho film was completed In two weeks
os. actual worK, almost nan tne usual lime.
"There was no useless rehearsing and
ho mistakes," says Mr. Brady, "The
players Were given parts. Just as though
they Were to study tho lines for a- stage
production. Mr. O'Neill then outlined the
business of tho story, conveyed to the
players his Ideas on tho construction and
continuity of tho play and they went
through It In masterful style and the
finished picture shows tho result,"
And now Mr. Brady Is going to produce
number of similarly cast, plays.
Within tho next week Edwin August,
Muriel Ostrlcho and Mllllo King will begin
work on a visualization of the famous
old sentimental song, "Sally In Our Alley,"
and Gall Kano and House Peters will com
plete work on 'Tho Velvet I'aw," which
is the first all-star picture made by Mau
rice Tourneur, and which employs, besides
Miss Kdno and Mr, Peters, a complete cast
of well-known 'World Film players.
Holbrook Bllnn will begin work within
the next few days on Alfred Henry Lewis'
story, 'The Man Higher Up," In which
June Elvldge, Oerda Holmes and other
more than popular players will occupy
the principal roles, while Edna Wallaco
Hopper, Frank Sheridan. Macey Harlan
hd Alex B. Frances will be seen this
month In 'The Perils of Divorce."
'There wlfl be no resorting to tho sen
sational In these productions," said Mr.
Brady, "Wo completed 'Husband and Wife'
In two weeks and did not have to send an
automobile off a cliff, capsize n boat, stage
a train wreck or rescue any fair maiden
from a hell-bent villain and It was because
tho six stars In the picture more than
acted their roles, they anticipated tho di
rector's wishes and went through their
scenes with remarkablo faithfulness and
celerity, and despite the fact that the cast
cost more than $6000 a week, the picture
cost less than some which have had a con
siderably minor cast In point of salaries."
It Is Mr. Brady's Intention from now on
to punctuate the program with highly Im
portant and well-known dramatic hits In
which every principal part, no matter how
Unimportant In comparison with other
parts, will bo filled by recognized stars.
An Idea of what efficient theatre man
agement means may bo gained by , the
reading of tho following noto on tho
Stanley's program: "On the messanlne
floor, reading and writing room, with cur
rent magazines and writing material,
ladles' retiring room (also on first floor)
with matron In attendance. Homo remedies
without charge. Men's smoking room, tele
phone and messenger call. Upon request
tho "uher will call a physician, furnish a
messenger for service within a radius of
Ave blocks without charge and call taxi
cabs (notify a few minutes In advance
of need). Automobile and carriage man
In attendance."

From Honolulu comes word of the activi
ties of Helen Holmes, J. P. McGowan and
the Signal Film Company, which went to
the islands to film exteriors for the com
ing feature, 'The Diamond Itunners." The
players worked on sceneB on their way over,
while they were In Honolulu, and during a
hard trip into the Interior of the Island. It
is said new and striking scenery will be
shown to the public for the first time as a
result of the expedition. The company Is
due back at the Los Angeles studio' sbon.

THERE are bad germs and benign germs.
They have both by the millions up In
the fresh red brick buildings that make up
tho big .Philadelphia Hospital for Con
Uglous Diseases on tho broad plot at 2d
and Luzerne strectB. ,
Every last one of tho germs, both good
and bad, comes under tho super Islon of a
modest little woman, Miss Iloborta M. West,
supervising nurse of the hospital,
Not that she orders them up for dress
parade or Inspection every morning, for
these death-Mealing bugs don't usually as
sume their terrors unless they arc seen
under tho microscope.
DUt In her Position nn ntlnervlslni? numa
she directs the nctlvftles of 00 excellent
nurses, who, In torn, combat tho germs.
It Isn't very hard, physicians will tell
you. to catch tho germs of scarlet fever,
diphtheria or smallpox from a person suf
fering with tho disease. Especially so If
your system happens to be the slightest out
of tune.
That's why some superlmagtnatlvo per
sons shudder when they think of a woman
who has nbout n million chances to be
Inoculated with a ravaging microbe. "Take
Miss West's place7" they ask themselves
In a Si. Vitus' dance of the brnln. "No.
no, NO!"
Enter Miss West. Sho appreciates as
well as anybody elso the dangers that
rnleht might, mind lou be lurklmr In
one of the corridors or wards of the spa
clous hospital, Sho knows whnt It means
to have any of tho diseases they treat at
the Institution, for sho sees day after day
the destroying effects of lively gctms.
Her science and skill, however, make her
laugh, figuratively speaking, at possible
terrors.
"A lot of peoplo are sick," she said, "he
cause they take things they shouldn't take.
Danger here? Not more so than In other
hospitals."
"reople don't realize," continued Miss
West, "thnt freih air and sunshine are
the grcntett aids to digestion that aro
probably known."
Wherein her advice mlgh't profit numer
ous ntght-owls and gluttons who feel mis
erable and know not tho cause therefor.
The hospital Is now tunning ut capacity.

Police Court Chronicles
It was a goat that made -Pat Bryer's
life one of gloom. He loved his wife Mary
Ann, He also liked the goat. She didn't.
One night Mary Ann put the goat out
U f.ce the world alone. Tat went with It
When he returned three days later, the
goat ttavlng deserted "him In the meantime,
Mary Ann" had disappeared, That was 31!
years tgo. Is It any wonder that Pat
declared war on sroata forever?
Rvery time he sees one now It brings J
up visions or, nis snattered romance and
the lurking suspicion that Mary Ann Is
still alive and happy.
A chill passed through Pat when he met
a goat of the livery Btable species face to
fece on J8th street. Something In the eye
of Pat told the goat that he was not a
friend. Billy's suspicions were verified
when Pat stooped ow and prepared to
spring. Then, with eager fingers, he sought
to get a grip on Billy's throat.
But the goat dupkert and their heads
met Pat landed upon his back, but was
up In a flash and prepared for the second
round. In his right hand he lovingly
clutched a brick.
The combatants were about to close in
when a policeman arrived and, without
ending any nots, declared the hostilities
all Qff. The goat uttered a defiant baa,
und ran Into a nearby stable. As fat was
sttl In fighting mood, the faluecoat took
lilm before Magistrate Stevenson.
The prisoner related briefly the story of
M contempt for goats In general.

SHOES MADE
MEASURE
.IT (W hHt
gntYsr,
TO
-L comedy In a melodramatic photoplay. If
comedy was used at all people would laugh
at the melodrama. All this has changed
now, lioweter. The reason why formerly
we did not use comedy .was that In the
shorter subjects 'we had no time to bring
comedy fn. Then there has come about a
change In tho public's taste. They have
been educated by tho pictures. The
"movies" were taken ns more or less of a
Joko at first, and If there wnB a chance to
laugh at them It was about all the public
wanted. With the advent of the feature
picture, however, there, Is tlmo to develop
not only tha story and' tho drama, but to
round It VJt and make It fuller and stronger
with ctnedy relief.
If you writs a single-reel drama even
now yiiu v 1 find little space In which to
tell your story and develop comedy at the
same time without giving the appearance
of dragging It In. Comedy requires the
same care In development as diama. You
must first lay your ground uork and es
tablish your premises.
If you have a single-reel drama or even
a two-reel drama, you have not the space
necessary for comedy. If you have the
apace, nlno times out' of ten you have a
drama that Is thin and Innocuoiis, with
none of the qualities which make a strong
story.
The trend now Is to use comedy freely
In feature subjects. It Is as necessary as
the drama. It gives your story a balance
that is otherwise lacking. In a recent pic
ture a young child Is seen playing In a
locked rpnm with the house on fire. We
get tho suspense and it heightens. Just nt
thu tlmo when the audlenco feels that there
must be some action, some rescue attempted,
wo are shown what she Is playing with.
It Is a curious and assorted collection of
puppies and kittens.
Tho scenario called for comedy business
here One of tho dogs gets his head
caught in a "small pitcher. First the fire
raging Is flashed and then the child and
then tha dog's attempts to get" free. One
of tho puppies catches the Imprisoned doc's
tail In his mouth and starts to drag him
away.
The audience was held breathless In sus
pense one moment and the next Becond
was laughing. But each time the fire was
flashed It was larger, and the sudden shock
of this discovery was Intensified by the
comedy that preceded It. The luspense
was increased by the comedy.
As the drama falls tho comedy Bhould
rise. You do not lose your suspense If
this rule Is followed. Imagine two lines
starting at a given point, one drama, tho
other comedy. Let the drama rise ; If It Is
a dramatic story It should rise first. Then
as your comedy Is Introduced It will rise.
When your drama comes to a halt pre
paratory to taking some new angle or In
traducing some new situations, the comedy
line should rise mid cross it. As your
drama falls your comedy rises. The Illus
tration on this page will make this clear
As you will notice In the Illustration the
oamedy la greatest In the middle of your
story, apd has died out at the finish. This
Is natural. You are writing a drama. It
has Its episodes and It la at the close of
the episodes that the comedy rises.
When you near the climax the suspense (s
Increasing, You have laid your premises
and now the story Is coming to Its close.
The punch Is at hand. There is little room
for comedy here, although touches of com
edy may be used.
Do not confuse a comedy touch with the
elrt of comedy under discussion. Comedy
touches are used for Intensifying the sus
pense, the comedy element Is something
else. It Is a part of your story nnd re
quires Its own development It must bo
introduced, glvon character nnd life, de-
eloped and closed. The closing may be
Indeterminate. It may nrrlo at no vital
or definite conclusion, for this may not bo
really necessary, whereas the conclusion of
the drama must be absolutely definite, as
It Is this which is your story.

pmcrcs nrcsTiticT buying
While the convention will bo the largest
Amorlcan railroad men have held In a
decade, because of tho unprecedented pros
perity pervading tho country, members of
the American Ballway Supply Manufac
turers' Association, hero In largo numbers
to play hosts to the mechanical chiefs nnd
take such orders as chance to cor.io their
way, aro far from satisfied with tha situa
tion. The reason lies In the fact that mnrket
prices for all kinds of raw matcrals enter
ing Into railroad equipment are up fiom
50 to 100 per cent nnd railroad purchasing
authorities, with net revenues steadily
mounting, nre mnrklng time in ordering
supplies. Many of the big roads hac with
drawn Inquiries for locomotives, cars and
other equipment until the market manifests
a tendency to get back to normal. Most of
tho orders placed lately, it was stated at
the Million Dollar Pier convention ha'l to
day, were for equipment absolutely neces
sary to enablo the contracting lines to meet
overwhelming demands.
Considerable Importance was ntt.lched by
Hasteni railway men today to the fct that
New York Central operating Income for
April was 3G per cent, greater than In 191B,
while Pennsylvania operating Income In
creased nearly 40 per cent., with over
$1,000,000 net available for dividends, an In
crease of Jl, 169. 000 over April of last year.
Shortage of orders has not prevented the
railway supply manufacturers from setting
up an exhibit exceeding that of nil prior
years, In splto of the fact that some of the
big supply firms are so busy turning out
wnr munitions that they are doing little
bidding for railway orders. Machine tools,
for Instance, nre Almost wholly lacking 111
the display this year, for. the reason that
the manufacturers have none they can
spare' to send here.
The exhibit covers more than 80,000
square feet, exclusive of the outdoor dis
play of the latest products In rolling, stock.

other things nre shown In floral 'settings.
They fill two largo buildings and a pari
of a third on the Million Dollar Pier, where
tho sessions-of the railway bodies are to be
held. One feature of tho exhibit comes
from the Edison ,plnht. It Is an electric
searchlight of Immense power, designed for
use In illuminating scenes 6f wrecks. Es
pecial Interest attaches to nil of the many

today expressed the belief that the time Is
not far distant when engines will maintain
their present high tractive power with low
grade fuel, thus effecting nn enormous sav
ing. Western men. who know nil nbout
mountain-climbing moguls, declare thnt lo
comotives with n pulling power of 80.000
tons have not begun to attain tho height
of tractive posslblltles
ELECTItlFIED LINES
Electrification by the Pennsylvania In
tha Philadelphia suburban district ; by the
St. Paul and by tho Norfolk nnd Western
In high-grade country has demonstrated,
tho most conservative backers of steam
propulsion now concede, thnt electric eh
Klnes will do evervthlne that has been
claimed for them. This applies to tractive
power as well as speed, with abatement of
tho smoko nulsnnco and economy In fuel
In favor of electrification. It Is probable
the convention will have something to say
on the subject of legislation now before
Congress proposing to prohibit tho opera
tion of trains moro thnn half a mile In
length.
D. F. Crawford, of tho Pennsylvania
lines west, one of tho best-known among
rnllway men here, believes that In case of
war trnnsportntlon chiefs will be nmong
tho first to bo requisitioned by the Govern
ment, not only for looking after the mov
ing of troops nnd supplies, but for the
manufacture of munitions Ho believes
American rnllway officers should study the

Bourse Interested in Project for Direct
Service From Philadelphia to

Direct water service between Philadel
phia and the Pacific coast will be estab

ness Interests of this city and vicinity will
support it. This announcement was made
yesterday by tho Philadelphia Bourse. A
firm ownlnpr a fleet of auxiliary schooners
of '300 tons capacity Is now considering
making Philadelphia the terminus of the
new line. The Philadelphia Bourse is en
deavoring to obtain this service for Phila
delphia and also soliciting support of busi
ness mentor the proposed line.
Four vessels of wood and steel and
equipped with oll-burnlng auxiliary en
gines, the Bourse announced, are under
construction by the Paclc firm It plans
to carry lumber and canned fruits and fish
from the Pacific seaboard to the Atlantic
and as return cargoes will carry almost
any kind of freight, such ns steel manu
factures, oils, paints, chemicals and dry
goods
Tho officials of the Bourse for some time
have beon In touch with representatives of
the Portland firm. They said yesterday
that this city In all probability will be made
the eastern terminus, provided the operators
