Romance In a Film Factory
T.XKIXG this picture b\" and large, if you know wiial wc mean, you will obser\e what takes place when a company is shooting a scene in a film studio. But allow your gaze to focus within the w hite line — and you will see only what will later appear on the screen.

Bending over her chair, whispering honeyed words into her ear. is Wilfred Lytell — yes. Bert's brother — her new leading man. To the right of the picture, with a megaphone under
his arm. idully coiucmplating the amorous dalliance, is Charles (jiblyn. the director, who will explode into a \erbal \olcano if Mr. Lytell doesn't get it o\er just right. F.\erything looks calm and peaceful at this minute, but it won't !a>t. It never does — in a studio!
Does this take awa\ all the mystery which surrounds the making of [)ictures for you? Or were you always pal[)itating to discover just how the wheels go round? In case you are easily disillusioned, we ad\ ise you to co\ er up all of the picture except that soothing scene within the white line.
