''BONDS oP LOVE" TOPICS OF INTEREST TO MOVIE PATRONS Experts Tell How to Write Scen arios Perseverance Is Se cret Film Flashes Chances of success for aspiring screen writers and the proper procedure for those who xvish to master the art of silver sheet authorship, have been dis cussed by John Emerson and Anita Loos, piobably the best known photo play writers in America. .Xnita Loos, whose name for the last two months has been Mis. John Emerson, nnd her husband are the authors of "A Temper amental Wife," sfnrring Constuce Tnl niadge, at the Stanley iiext xveck. "We have no secrets,, said Mr. Hm ersVin. "Tlie only part of photoplay writing which seems to be the buga boo for. amateurs is thnt difficult prac tice of perseverance. Screen xsriting doesn't come naturally for nny one. It' harder to write for tne screen than it is to become nu expert pianist. It's Imrilpr thmi li.nrnimr n foreign lan guage. And jet, the beginner will nine teen times out of twenty be offended und feel discouraged if bis early efforts arc not bought by the producing companies to which lie submits them." Seven -j car-old Franlde Lee, who plays the most important male role with Pauline Frederick iu "Honds of Love," nt the Palace next xveek, had a joyous time with one of the dumb actors in tlie photoplay. The silent actor is a huge, tawny mastiff, who Is introduced dragging his little master at the end of a leading-j string through the parlor of Ins own home. The boy and dog are inseparable companions; and when the xvise old animal is tired of letting the child pull his ears, bite his nose, or stick Ids fingers into his patient eyes, lie lie down and goes to sleep, xvhile the child pillows his little head ou the dog's broad breast. .fed Prouty is now convinced that it i unlucky to xvalk under u ladder. In "Sadie Love," tlie new Paramount -Artcraft picture, in which Hillie Hurke is the stur and xvhich will be seen next xveck at the Arcadia, Prouty plays the role of n former sweetheart of the hero ine, who returns just utter she hns been married to u handsome Italian count. Refusing to give, up hope, he rewoos tlie hrirle and secures her consent to nn elopement. The couple plan a getaway via the traditional ludder. During the lilirflng of (his scene Prouty xvas xvalking uround the "set" while property men were preparing the scene when Miss Hurke suddenly cried : "Oh, Mr. Prouty. you've walked under the ladder. Now something is sure to happen." And it did. Jed is a pretty stocky mun und pego tinting the steep ascent up the ladder wns no Joke. Hut he bravely made his wnv tnwnrd the balcony upon xvhich pretty Miss Hurkee xvnited. With one foot on the railing nnd one on the top rung of the ladder crash ! Down xveut the ladder und cranking camera men nud other attendants gasped, fnr they expected to see stout Jed come tumbling after. Hut they forgoj that Prouty is somewhat of n "stunt" actor und looked nloft in umnzement to see him hang for an instnnt by one foot on the balcony rail nnd then cleverlv druw himself up to safety nnd Miifs Hurke. Ilouillni, xvho xvill inuke his debut n n photoplay stur in a complete play, "The .Orini dame," nt the Victoria next x'eek, has been provided with a mysterv thriller by Arthur II. Heeves.
