UNFOnTl'NATlXY. mnny "best ellers" nre not naturally motion-picture stories. Hrlllinnt dialogue, scintillating repartee nnd beautifully painted description nil hnve their value at so much a word in fiction, but unfortunately, they cannot be photographed. The average story written as straight fiction nnd with no thought of motion picture application, will hnrdly provide more than half of the mnterinl required for B fcnture-length 1 five-reel 1 picture. It deo!ves. therefore, upon the scenario writer to supply sufficient action to build up the story for screen requirements. A mot excellent fiition story may be entirely 'licking in one or more of the elements of heart Interest, love interest, dramatic strength, comedy relief or human touches. Yet. the same story, produced on the screen minus these quali ties would be severely criticized. Briefly, the duties of the scenario writer btc here summed up: To take the tory materiaVprovldcd nnd build into it any of the essential elements which mny he lacking for n satisfactory screen version: elimination of nctlon which may hnTe no screen vn'ue, or tend to hinder the unfolding of the plot : to prepare 11 scenario in numbered scenes of action : to supply the dialogue for the spoken title, where it Is Impossible to convey the meaning in pantomime, nnd to assume full responsibility for every one's mistakes In case the finished picture should result unsatisfactorily. 7lltE('TOHS. cutters, srrren editors and general managers hare i much to do with n picture long after it has passed through the scenario irrtter's hands. 5in fon'f judge too hastily in case they omit some part which, in your opinion, was particularly attractive, but, from ihe standpoint of conventional screen values, was impossible.

In fact, every one on the set is nice, to say nothing of the studio und the whole wide world. The reason for this sudden burst of good will? Ah, enn't you guess? I'll never tell. Well, anyway, Casson Ferguson was making pretty speeches to May and I do believe he practices by the hour, not only thinking them up, but elocuting them so forcefully that the recipient is that enthralled she forgets to wonder what it all means. Lovely Kathlyu Williams listened, too, and being of an Inquiring mind, stopped Casson in the midst of a volley by asking him to explain just what he meant when ho said May wag like a "sweet-scented highlight." It appeared that ho didn't know himself just thought It sounded nice. I'm afraid Kathlyn Williams regards n lady with n rather fishy eye, If they've not been Introduced. 1 suppose she thought I looked crooked, like Ben Turpln.

Even the idea thnt I might hnve a publicity man pr my own wns rather n shock to me. 1 u never been n personage, you see, nnu the thought that now I wns going to be made one was brand new. A good mnny people who hnd como on from New York for the convention went back on tho train that I took, nnd bo, when I wns walking through tho sta tion with the mnn from Sir. hnndy -Chicago office, talking nbout publicity and what could be done for me, I wasn t really mirpriscd to see Merwiu Reeil there. Ho was walking toward the hng gage room, with two stunning Airedales pnttcvjng along beside him. ami I hes itated ft moment nnd glanced back over my shoulder at him, ns Interested n any girl who'd never been Insido a mo-lion-picture studio. "Want to meet Reed?" naked tha mnn with me. "I used to work for tho company ho was with, nnd knew him fairly well. He's a nice chap you'd llko him." I did want to meet him. of course; he was one of my favorites on the screen, nnd I was eager to know whnt he really was like. I have been so glad thnt I met him then, before his success spoiled him. His story is nn interesting olio, and I'm solnjr to pause in tho midst of telling mine to repent it to you ; whether you recognize him or not, it will give j on n Glimpse of the wny things happen bihind tho screen. His career wns started by a girl, the girl he fell in love with when ho wns trying to earn a Hvlns down In Ken tucky, sell I tig bookn. lie wns nmnz Ingly unsuccessful ; In fact, he told me Hint he wns absolutely the worst snles man thnt company had ever hnd. Rut lie was so much in love with the daugh ter of the woman who wno postmistress in his home town thnt he kept on trying to roll books, determined that somehow he'd earn enough money to mnrry her. Rut her mother was not nt nil en couraging. Sbo wnnted her daughter to marry the aon of the local feed and ite merchant really, this rends ex actly like the story of one of Clinrlle Rny's pictures! She wouldn't ccn let Merwin call at the house, so he and the girl used to meet on the lumber piles down by the river, which belonged to the man her mother wanted her to mnrry, nnd sit there holding each other's hands and planning how they'd get married if Merwin could ever get n job that would nssure him of $20 n week. Ho couldn't seem to do it. though. He tried just about everything, but h never whb any good nt anything at nil. He couldn't get the k'nnck of business. He wns nineteen then, nnd he felt thnt he ought to begin to nmount to some thing, if he wub ever going to. only he couldn't EOcm to decide on whnt he'd amount to. And then one dny the girl's mother met him on .the street, nnd Rtopped to tnlk to him : she wnnted him to leave town for good, so thnt her daughter would forget him. And when they'd Veen talking for n few minutes she said: "Why don't you go into the movies? I should think you'd be awfully good in them." So they said good-by nnd he flipped on the lnte freight nnd 'bummed his wny to New York. And she snt there by the river for a little while longer. ! nnd cried n bit, because she thought .Merwin would never come back, nnd then went home to be nice to the feed nnd ice merchant. Merwin couldn't seem to get any where In the movies for a year or so. He wasn't as good-looking then ns he is now, and nt that time there wasn't such n chance In pictures for the boy with n clean, honest face and eyelashes no longer thun the ordinary man's. Rut he hung on, trying his best to learn, sure that he'd found the right line nt last, nnd thnt his chnncc would come. It did, quite unexpectedly.
