Mrs. Wood is the former Frances Goode a member of the Cabanne family here and a cousin of Christy Cabanne. the motion picture director. Continuity writing is that psfc-t of scenario construction upoa which the director depends for every detail of his guidance. It is, in other words, the script.

It is a most important and technical sort of work and Mrs. Wood is said to have acquired skill at it in a surprisingly short space of tiro. Within the last year she was married to Freeman Wood, a screen actor, now leading man with Mae Murray. They live in Hollywood. A distinguished woman in the productions end of the business, Mrs.

They had made up their minds that it would never fly again. Every night and sometimes during the day Danny and Nanny visited that man-bird and climbed into it. The temptation to make nest in the tiny cupboard in that man-bird grew on Nanny.

The door of that tiny cupboard had been left open i just a crack, a crack big enough for Danny and Nanny to run in and out of easily. Inside that cupboard was just the right size for a home. There was some soft cotton waste in it and Nanny had already arranged that to make a most comfortable bed. Then one night Danny discovered Nanny taking some dry. soft grass in there.

How Novak Sisters "Broke 111." The careers of Jane and Eva Novak have been less spectacular, more consistent with the natural order of events. Ten years ago the 21st of May, Jane, then 17 and recently grad-" uated from the Grant School, went 1 to California to join an aunt, Anna Marie Schafer, known locally as a player of "heavy roles in stock companies and now doing such roles in the pictures. Two years later, Eva, then 18, followed the aunt, of course, paving the way for engagements for her pretty nieces, having always encouraged them in the idea of going on the dtage, an idea in which most girls do not need much encouragement. Of distinctly different types, Jane, serious, thoughtful, spirit-uelle, and Eva.

vivacious, daring, light-hearted and merry, the sisters naturally drifted into distinct-. ly different types of plays and companies. Jane to the (Vltagraph, Kalera, Famous ftayers and Ince studios, playing gentle heroines opposite Charles Ray, William S. Hart, House Peters, Lewis Stone and others, while Eva went into Fox comedies and later into plays of wild adventure wherein Tom Mix usually was the star. Their careers have been a steady climb upward until now Jane has attained stardom and at last the two sisters are to be seen together in a new production, 'The Rockv of Ages." haa many drawbacks," she continues.

"Besides the strenuous hours which necessitate my retiring as a rule at 9:30 or 10, excepting Monday nights, when 'our club meets, and Fridays, when we take interpretive dancing, one of the flies in the ointment is the regular way we seem to have of always taking summer s'cenes in the wiater, and vice versa. "During trfe filming of The Girl I with Charles Ray, all the winter scenes, in which I was bundled up to my ears, were taken on the hottest days of July and August, while during The Hunchback of Notre Dame, all the outdoor night shots were taken during January and February, and if you have seen' the film you will observe my costume is scanty to say the least. "Either mother or daddy always goes with me 'on location' and we always look forward to a trip of that sort with the greatest pleasure." And then she concludes: "My one and only regret is that I didn't get to graduate with my class at Mary which, if I do say it myself, was one of the best. You can't have everything, though, and I do feel that I have chosen wisely how wisely only time can tell." Mr. Miller has gone into business in California and a small sou, Winston, following his sister about the sets, has become lnnoculated with the movie germ, and It.

Jane Novak is the mother of a little girl of 7 years, whose father she recently divorced.

The two sisters are just as different in character as night from day. Mrs. Ballak tells me. Jane is self-sufficient, economical, a good business woman with serious plans for her little daughter. Eva Is irresponsible, happy-go-lucky.
