REX A IACH
By JAMES “2 DEAN
NEW YORK. May 17.——Tne emi-
nent Rex Beach writes a letter to
the eminent Theodore Dreiser. invit-
ing the latter to attend a two-day
international congress on motion pic-
ture arts to be held in New York
city June 7 and 8. The invitation is
in behalf .of the Author’s League.
The congress is sponsored by Adolph
Zukor.‘ president of Famous Players-
Lani-(y.
The eminent Theodore Dreiser an-
swers the letter in his eminent satir-
ical vein. He says in part. “My inn--
lure opinion is that the Authors‘
League of America. might be much
more appropriately concerning itself
at this time with calling conference!
of such forces as it can muster to
make safe the cultural and artistic
privileges and necessities of serious
letters, than which there is nothing
more important at this time."
Dreiser then reviews the present
agitation for censorship of books and
politely invites the Authors‘ League
to take some part in the battle
against proposed book censorship
bills. Dreiser says that the motion
picture congress strikes him as triv-
ial and unimportant at this time.

That this warfare, conducted on
the battlefield of note paper. may
prove very warm (but with no casual-
ties) is very likely. However. that it
of no importance so far as the fu-
ture of motion pictures is concerned.
That Zukor is earnest in his at.
tempt to bring about a betterment of
motion pictures through this meeting
of authors cannot be doubted.
However. it appears to one who is
neither engaged in the production of
motion pictures and who is not an
author. that the logic of neither Zu-
kor. the Authors' League nor Dreiser
is entirely sound.
No. great progress will be made in
the further development of the cine-
ma as an art until those making pic-
tures realize that they are dealing in
a. distinct medium. that the author
does not make the picture except in

a very small degree.
The motion picture must develop
its own creative artists. Numerous
authors have tried to take a'dlrect
hand in the making of pictures, but
the only one this writer can recall at
the moment as having- made any
appreciable progress is Rupert.
Hughes. who recognizes that the
motion picture is not a literary by-'
product. .
Rex Beach told me once that he
considered the motion picture simply
the moans of telling a. story with
many pictures and a few cutlines. .It
is difficult. to see how anyone in that
attitude (and it is the attitude‘ taken
by most authors) can do much to de-
velop the motion picture beyond the
comic supplement .stage.
James Young. the director, told me
several years ago that some day
colleges would have courses in. mo-
tion picture production which would
turn out directors with full under-
standing of every detail. of picture
production. It seems to me that this
must come about if the art of the
cinema is to advance.
3 O 0
The future makers of pictures must:
be artisans and artists trained for
their specific work. not authors. paint-
ers. sculptors. etc.. who come into
the motion picture fold because of
greater financial opportunities and
then believe that. because they hav-
achieved success in their former
lines of endeavor. they know all
there is to know about an art. that is
probably more intricate. more diffi-
cult of learning than any other exist.-
ing art.
Most of our poor pictures. and
they arrin a. vest. remain. an poor
because producers. directors and
players are only apprentices at their
jobs.
Here's to the day when a motion
picture director can boast a. degree
conferred on him for his proficiency
in his vocation. They might be ad-
mitted to practice. like attorneys and
physicians. . ‘

I don't think you will be surprised,
Sally dear. when I tell you that be-
cause of your letter and Leslie's let-
ter I refused a proposal of marriage
to the men who took me motoring
yesterday.
I told him I was not yet sure that
we loved each other enough. 0!
course he protested that he loved me
enough and that he would make me
love him. Men are so sure of their
ability in this direction.
As I could not explain to him that.
two of my friends had just come to
me with very perplexing and dis-
quieting experiences in married life.
which made me "stop, look and
listen." he finally let the matter rest
by saying that in a few‘ months he
would ask me again. ; .. ,.

Household Suggestions
COLD PACK
Lemons. cranberries and rhubarb
may be kept a long time if covered
with cold water and sealed. Cut the;
barb in inch pieces. pack in jars. let
the cold water from the faucet run on
it till it has no bubbles. then seal and
keep in the dark. The same method
may be used for cranberries. Lemons
need the water renewed.
MELTl-ll) ICE CREAM.
The next time there is melted ice
cream left set it with gelatin for blanc
mange of thicken it with cornstarch
or tapioea pudding. Two eggs to a
pint of liquid stirred in and cooked
makes it a good custard. Left-over
cocoa or chocolate may be utilized in
the same way. or you may use the
chocolate for the liquid in place of
milk or water.
TEE PENNY BANK.
If you want to know what your
thrift amount to in dollars and cente
try putting into a penny bank what-
ever is represented by the food you do
not. waste.
SALAD 0114.
Many persons find peanut and cot-
ton seed oil as pleasant as olive oil
for salads. and the cost is a third less.
- HOME-MADE VINEGAR.
Make your own vinegar. Keep
your cider until it turns to vinegar. or
add to the cider vinegar the old cider
and the fruit juices that you do not
put into puddings and other things.
Summer Hats

There’s a hat born every minute!

simply made by hanging one corner of a straight piece of material and letting
the rest fly at will.
Take. for instance. the double drapery on the frock at the right. It in
nothing more or less than two straight pieces of material stitched a bit slant.-
ingly on the skirt—the rest it does itself.
The other dress. showing the hanging drapery in front of the skirt, is ex-
ceedingly smart. It goes without saying that this kind of drapery should
extend below the skirt. In an evening gown the drapery often reaches the
floor and trails into a. full-grown train.

W’ith a knowledge of the funda-

can make "new" dishes herself.
Of course there are new prepara<

new utensils for saving labor. But
every woman should try the spirits
and see if for her they be good or
evil. .
Fundamentally all good recipes are
alike. I have been studying old cook
books. books written in the seven-
teenth and eighteenth centuries. and
the recipes are about the same as
those in a modern book. Market
conditions have made up for many
preliminary directions, such as how
to dress an animal. or for "beating"
the spices. all of which we have done
