"The costume play will come back. but It will come back as a transcript of reality, a vision of life as It was lived; not as Ufb elocutionists and the delaarte teaohers believed thaj It was lived. They are responsible for Ita disappearance not the period Itself. Theoretically and property, the oos- tnroe play ought to give the photo play Its greatest opportunity. H Clvca us a chance to put novelty on the screen, and beauty. Certainly a man In our conventional attire and a woman In a skirt too scant for mod esty and too tight to walk in are not such pictorial subjects as a gentleman and a lady of the early Qeo'gca.

He cays that on the stage there Is a union of thoatrn and production which has always worked (or good, and that the motion picture can never fully express, the thoughts and desires of the people an long as there Is an entirely Impersonal go between. At present, to eate the case exactly, there Is no more connection between the public and the production end than there Is between the Cuban sugar planter and the man who puts three Cuban lumps In his coffee lq Fort Dodge.
