Canadian Fhdflc (Callnae4 Tt The camera men. the dawdling light crew, and the propa and fr!a ere rhaprona, but they were becoming na iimmixirtiint aa the acenery. Mom, tlmxa she thoiiKht thry were aware of a aomethlnK In the ntmoapher. I'erhapa aha caiiKht a alanca a hot from one to another or an rya turned away a little to Indifferently. Ilut that only enhanced the excite. iiient. and one one occasion when rinymora tried to !arh her blanesa of wrath and compelled her to acream and atrike at him, there waa au h an uinlertonn of affection In the pretense of hale that aha felt fairly wrenched apart. She met Tom Holhy on the lot nna day. He had been asked to rome over and talk of a possible contract with the Iiernioml company. lie greeted Metn with effusive enlhusl asm and she warmed at the pride of hla recognition. Then aha felt a little twingn of conscience an Intu ition that she had no right to lie an glad to see Mr. Holhy. since now aha belonged to Mr. Claymore. Thla waa nn amazing and alnvlsh reversion to primeval anbinlaslvenesa for an emancipated woman. but there wna a tang of wild comfort In the feeling that she wna owned. And then ahe wondered If ahe did not owe tho priority to Mr. llolby. Thla wna a complication! It la the custom to regard such confused romances In the dramatic and other artistic realms with scorn aa the flippant amour of trlf1eis;but they are of exactly the same aort, aa earn est, as pathetic and aa reluctantly entered Into as the countless entnn irlementi that doctora and churchmen encounter In their equally emotional relntlona with souls In turmoil of one sort or another. Literature used to be packed with the disastrous affairs of churchmen and their communicants, but the al ienee had been profound of late, ex cept when a sensational explosion bursts Into tho newspapers. And there haa been little discussion ut any time of the secret chambers to which the physician's passe partout admlta him. The alage and the painter a worli. have had too much attention nnd too little sympathy, ami shortly the mov ing picture waa to be assailed by a tornado of national disgust and wrath, nn eruption of hot ashes and lava from a deep resentment atored tip un known against the magic development of the new art Into Titanic power. Hut no one foresaw the accident that was to turn a commonplace ca rousal Into a cataclysm. . For thn present Mem had no great er anxiety than the peculiarly masked flirtation with her director and the b-ittles with little artistic problems as thev arose. Her life had regularity again, flho got up of mornings with u task be fore her. She had hours of waiting for every minute of acting, hut ahe waa one of the company nnd she could study the work of others. Her textbooks wore the faces of the actors and actresses, the directions of the directors. The mere learning of the language whs an occupation In Itaelf, She felt puffed up when visitors wore brought upon the stage and permitted to see pictures taken. It wna surprising how fascinating the thing was to the outsiders. Kings and nuena. princesses and princes, foreign and native generals, ambassa dors, opera singers, plutocrats, paint- era gathered humbly In the back grounds of the scenes and marveled nt tho business of drama nnd phofog. raphy, the morbid blue lights nnd the surprising calm nnd graclnusness tit the process. They hnd evidently ex pected noise and wrangling and tem pestuous temperament. One day when a little scene waa being filmed In which she was the only nctress, the rest of the company being excused for a change of cos tume, a visitor from overseas was brought upon the set, a great French general. ' The publicity man, whose lust for space never slept, suggested that the general might like to be photographed on the sceno. He laughed and came forward with a boyish eagerness. He dlsplnved flt once a terror he had not revealed under fombardment. On one side of him stood the director, on the other Mem, thrilled and thrilling. The still camera man took several pictures and the Incident waa ended, It seemed. The general kissed Mem's hand and left her almost aswoon with pride. The publicity man gave her one of the pictures and ahe set It up on her mantel aa a trophy of her glorv. Whether the general really said It of really meant It. only the publicity man knew, but when the picture ap peared In newspaper supplements about the world It waa stated In ench of the captions that the great war rior had said, "Kememlier Steddon la the prettiest girl In America." More amazing yet, Mem first learned of this nstoundlng tribute from her astounded father. Soon after she began to feel a pride In her art nnd to take home to het mother llttlo oomplhnenta ahe had heard, and to feel that she waa launched at last upon the Illimitable sea of the createst, as the pemest. of arts, and the most auperb of all live lihoods, the storm broke upon the moving picture world.

Thn Itcverend Hot-tor Hleddon was something more than a father lo hla daughter, something more than a hus band to bis wife; he waa also the high priest of their religion. The daughter had fled from hla face after her sin, and had found a new paradise, a new priestcraft, a now religion I cyonil tho desert, Nh had como to Nllev In an arllst flod, lov ing beauty and emotion and Inspiring his true ocllevers to proclaim his glorlea through the dev lopmont and celebration of lh glf'a and gracea he had beat iyed. She felt that he re quired of her hymn of passionate worship li stead of the nuonehlng of her spirit, the distortion Of her graces, the burial of her genius The Mosaic Ten Commandments contained no "Thou ali. if not commit ill am'f ury." Fho felt a ions"i ration, a cull lo act, to Interpret humanity to humanity. What Ivr father hnd donned tmcptn tlnna and dogrndaf Inua she now con sidered Inspirations and trlumpha. And vet she eooiil n.if foe unite aure of herself. High as she might rale her larcer, she had como al It by stealth and had been led to It by a dark r"'h of lies and concealed shame. Thn overseeing heaven and tho pit of hell yawning for unwary feet still terrified her. Her mother hnd a different excuse; she hnd como hllher to proleef her daughter i.nd redeem her from calam ity, Her deception hml been a form of protection. What If she hnd de ceived hoc husband? It was nil for his comfort, nnd she had never sought her own. If one may die for another's sake, why may one not He In on tillcn behalf? Heldos, Mis.

J Mrs. Hteddon wna nil Tor retorting to his letter with another of defiant rebuke. Hut Mem advised delay. She was not quite sure of hirself or her art. Torments of douhf, conflicting re morses, profound bewilderments are no more familiar to religious zealots than to nrtlHts In every field. And Mom could not orient herself in her new world. But ahe would not give up her career. That much wna certain.
