ACTING BEFORE CAMERA IS NOT LIKE ACTING BEFORE AUDIENCE Mr. E K Lincoln, Leading Actor in "The Littlest Rebel," Picture Play Now Being Made in Augusta, Oivea Out In teresting Interview on Difference of Technique Between Speaking Stage and Motion Picture Studio. That there In a great difference be- Iwwn the technique .if the speaking efa*e and Uu- motion picture studio, which never Iwmmn an apparent aa whin a "legltlmata" star enter* the realm of the photo-play, la lha opin ion of Mr. K.

From the Stage. "While 1 do not wieh to decry the work of legitimate at nra In any way," *ald Mr. Lincoln, "their appearance In motion pictures hau Impressed on rne the fact that of tent Imp* a very ainart person may not timh-ratand an other's business. The art of the photo play tllffara from that of the stage Even ‘making up' ta done differently, for Instance, Than, the working lines must he understood. Claying before the camera la far different from play ing before an audience. To get the best results one must have experience ami studied. “That la my opinion and it Is the policy of the Chotoplay Productions Company. Mr Frank A. Tlrhenor, the general manager, and myself hnvo made an exhaustive study of this phase of the producing end of the motion picture Industry. We wish out pictures to reach the public aa the highest form of visualisation of the plays from which they will be adapted Take our first production. "The TJt tlest Rebel" It lias been played In every hamlet from coast to coast and as a play ranks among the most pop ular. Now. we will present II In mo tion pictures and naturally we want to do It In. the best possible war After studying the work on the aereen of players who have made a success aa motion picture plovers and of the players whose reputations have been gained by work on Ihe speaking stage, we decided If. mnkc up our east of persons experienced in the silent drama Understand the Technique. "Cur decision to compose the com pany of screen players has been reach ed because we know beforehand Just exactly what to expect from llielr Work. They understand the technique of the business. It is rihdlsh, I be lieve, to expect to transplant a speak ing actor or actress Into an entirely new atmosphere and method of pro cedure at one swoop and expect him or her to get the best results. "This Idea Is amply borne out hy the appalling number of failures that have been mail, i.wiilly by legitimate stars In expensive motion picture pro Why Not a Matinee or Two Night Performances For the Minstrels ?

C. | duct lons I believe that It would nut I be placing the average too high to miv that not one In feu of these great people of the spoken dramas hava been satisfactory In their work In picture* In several Inalanees they have fallen down utterly. Sometime* It la the ex aggerated artistic temperament which prevents the star from getting Into the spirit of the work, hut as a gen eral rule It la an absolute lack of knowledge of pictures that cuuaes tha t routes. With reasonable (raining and some real hard study of the basic re quirements of this brand-new art the real actors of the legitimate gtage mould most readily round Into fine picture actor*. but uaually they are drafted at a big salary to work In one picture and they have 'fallen down' and gone out of the game before they have grasped even the elementary de tails of plctur acting. One Orest Difference. "One great difference between mo tion picture playera and those of the speaking stage Is that the first must he primarily actors or actresses, while the latter are often readers of lines. The speaking votes covers a multitude of alns on the speaking stage. It cannot do so tn motion pic tures. The player on tha screen has but two methods of conveying thoughts: expression and pantomime He learns these. He becomes a master of the art and enlarges upon his ve hicles until they are sufficient. The player on the speaking stage relies all too often on a quaver of the voice to convey pathos or mirth and other tricks of the trade which are of no use in pictures. The use of the speak ing voice differentiate between the two very largely. "Blanche Hales, the emotional ac tress, for one, knows this I was In terested In a recent speech of hers to the graduating class of a school of acting. 'Hrcserva your speaking volca, acting. 'Preserve your speaking voice,’ she aald. ‘lt Is all that stands be tween us and the motion picture players If It Is not worth the extra two dollar* what ia to become of ua?’ Miss Hates was right. In that the speaking voice doea stand between the two. And wtu-n a player from the speaking stage comes to pictures where hla silver throat does him no good he is as handicapped as a whist playar would he if hla bund was stripped of all its trump cards. What Picture Actora Know. "On the other hand, the folks who have been playing In pictures know Just what Is required of them. The camera catches exactly wh'nt they want It to catch They know what photographs well and what does not, and they enlarge on the one and en deavor to eliminate the other. “That Is why. with a choice of the best in the legitimate for there are few Imbed who are not anxious to enter pictures now at our disposal, we chose the cast of 'The Littlest Rebel' from actors and actresses who had already demonstrated their ability In pictures and this, in my carefully formed opinion, la what all of the pro ducers of big features will have to do In the near future, because the picture public is getting wise and is already beginning to put the boycott already beginning to put the boyeot on badly acted filing.” for seats It has hern suggested that a matinee he given /Whether those In charge wool consider this Idea seriously or not Is unknown, but It would aeein logical to either do this or give two night performances, say Tuesday and Wednesday nights. this week Includes- Mag and Snvder.

New York.—|W Alexis Carrel, head of the Rockefeller Institute and winner of n Nobel prise In science, discussed his latest experiments In surgery of the heart here today. These experiments were performed on dogs with the Idea of developing methods anil technique which can now he easily applied to human beings. His Method. “In several recent Instances.” Dr. Ctr vnl said, ”1 have tuccebeded In clamping cn masse the neek or pedicle of the heart, thus putting off the circulation of the blood for a period of two or three minutes and giving opportunity for a rapid operation on the aotlo and pulmo nary valves After the operation wus completed and the clamps removed the heart resumed Its pulsaton and after a vary short time the pulsations became regular. An Interruption of circulation for a much longer period Is umlouhted- Iv possible, so that operation* of a more compllostcd nature could be per formed. New Surgery. "In no case Were there any accident* or was there any need of massaging the heart when the Interruption of the cir culation did not exceed two and one thtrd minute* The valves were gen erally exposed by an Incision about an Rich and a half long, made half on the pulmonary artery and half on the ven tricle of tho heart " Dr. Carrel indicated this new surgery would mske possible the curing of many valvular heart troubles.
