"I also believe," said the young ntithor-produccr-dircctor, "that the present -day relinquishment of mnny outworn traditions, conventions, nnd political theories presages an era of photoplays which will more than merely scratch the surface of things: photo plays which will paint icality and realism rather than the Puritanism nnd puerile sentimentniism which most of the screen pln.vs of the past have expressed. "I look forward, in this yenr's nnd next ear's photoplays, to n predom inance of thought lather than action, the nbsract rather than the concrete with a corresponding advance in subtlety of acting and direction, and a recourse to unusual photographic de vices. "Sociologn al themes are bound to find expression in our coming cinemas, as all indications point to an era of serious social iccoiistruction, and the conflict w liich looms between capital nnd labor will cieate vivid, vital scenario material.

When Miss Dana came back to the studio lot nt Hollywood from a month's vacation in New York the little star was the envy of nil the others be cause of her fine collection of latest fnshlons. Then in her picture nppcar mice she used many of these costumes. Itathcr than appear twice in the same gown the little star Is putting in extra hours designing some new creations from the wealth of material she brought back with her. Apics Ayrcs has been through n scries of changes these last few weeks. First she wns ordered to report at the studio fn California to play the leading womnn's role nppoaito Wallace Held in "The Hell Diggers." After reading the part and milking all arrangements to get her clothes, she wns told to get ready to go to New York Immediately to piny opposite Thomas Mclghan in "Cnppy Hicks," the Peter Kync story in which Tom Wise and William Courtcnny were starred on the stage a few seasons ago.

With the co-operation of the tire de partment of the little southern Cali fornia town, the water power was har nessed for producing rain nnd a big portable electric plant with its group of powerful lights concentrated on one of the unfrequented streets. The tre mendous illumination attracted hun dreds of automobile parties who watched the artificial rainstorm as the sccues were shot under the brilliant lights. Will Film "Lorna Dooiie" The question why sonic producer has not seen tit to film U. D. Hlaekmore's story of "Lorna Donne" has been an swered by Maurice Tourneur. He will undertake to visualize in pii tures this popular romunce as soon as the pre liminary work has been accomplished. Mr. Tourneur has decided to take his compuiiy abroad to Devonshire county, In Hnglnnd, with its pieturesqiiti lanes ami rugged valleys. "The Heath Valley of the Doones" will be laid wliciu the nutlior pictured It, in Lng laud. The cast has not yet been selected, but most of the players will be Amer icans, as many of the scenes will b taken in this country before the com pan goes abroad.
