Starlight For. Sall
By Amy Miller
'fI crust hurry. It's this path,
isn't it?"
"Yes, that's your way. Sure
you're all right?"
"I'm all right now"
.She ran on, and sere looked back
over her shouldier and waved her
hand to the figure standing there.
He was sailing on Thursday, and
this was Tuesday. Mid what could
it matter to. her, who had said good-
bye Ito him long ago?
But she was awake to much she
had missed, before Garth Chevenix
had taught her something of love's
eestasy and anguish,
Long ago she had made up her
mind about Frank. Only to -day,
standing under the trees --
She went onw back to the place
where the aralamps hung and the
screens were placed for the 'taking
of the scene.
Some changes had been .neces-
sary for the climax of the story.
In the novel Bess dr'ow'sed herself,
and floated Ophelia-like, amongst
the weeds of the .stream; but a
ha.Ihpy ending had been decided
upon lior the fihn. The lover
of Bess came running to her
rescue, and the close-up of their
kiss followed swiftly. Anita and
Ian had made this, final picture in
the studio already.
The glade was to be taken from a
slightly different angle, and it took
some time to prepare the back -
group for the close of the drama.
Sally had nothing to de but sit
.the bank besdle 'the "cantina
lady" and watt till she was cane
She was glad of someone to talk to.
She hoped the iStapreme Film
people would take her back .to
Holfyawood; but she was doubtful.
She knew %she was only one of the
hundreds Of giria with film faces
and paseihilities as an actress.
"The kid's got temperament and
sex appeal," she hal overheard
Sleaenger :say to Stein, and; Stei
,sad, answered, "She's a good doubt
bat it wouldn't be worth while doin
anything else with her. Anit
wouldn't have her in the studio Yo
crowd, work,'"
Sallyrealised that her ream
blance to the star, which had open
ed the doors of the film 'world tor
her, was just as, likely to close them
again. But she belt It would be a
relief to start a new life in Cali-
fornia.
No more filming was done that
day; the sky became overcast, and
it was not until next morning that
they began to shoot the final scenes
of the drama.
Again and again Sally ran across
the grass towards the water. She
could, not get what Sleaenger want-
ed, and at last she burst 11:1ta tears.
She felt for her work i
that
She ran back, and 'the clappers
om sounded, as once more, sobbing, she

Ing because she was ]so over-
wrought.
From the producer's point of
view that did not matter. Sleaenger
said: ''You gat it that time, baby!"
She sat on the graiss, ,dried her
eyes, and tried to compose herself,
It did not make her any happier
to see that there had, been an audd-
ence.
nA group of people were standing
e, near. They had left their car to
g i watch the filar being :taken. One of
a thein was a very tall man. His back
r was towards. her, but the way he
held himself, a characteristic gee -
tura as he turned to another anan,
were unmistakable.

TO THE FURTHERANCE
oFacRicuuuRE
Founded and developed on the basis of helpfulness
to the farmer, the implement industry is entirely
dependent on the prosperity of agriculture for its own
success.
Through the years the implement maker has, with
quality of product and genuinely helpful service, won
the high regard and goodwill of the users of his product.
There are few farmers who do not value sincerely the
service of the implement company.
Lack of understanding of some of the problems of
the industry may give rise on occasion to criticisms that
seek to detract from or disparage the part that the
implement maker plays.
In the Tight of the facts, however, misunderstandings
vanish and a better appreciation results.
Farmers' Equipment Investment
Greatly Reduced
Most of the discussions on prices of implements, compar-
ing them with those of years ago, for instance, fail to
take cognizance of the improvement in methods that
have taken place, resulting in the use of different
machines from those of a quarter -of -a -century ago.
The One -Way Disc Seedbr has displaced, to a serious
extent, so far as the manufacturer is concerned, several
other machines, and it does so because it cuts the cost of
tillage and seeding by from 40% to 50%.
The small combine has spread the use of this method
of harvesting until the sale of them now almost equals
that of binders. And this because it costs only 26c per
acre for out-of-pocket expense to harvest with the
small combine as against $1.90 per acre by the Binder -
Thresher method -_a saving of $1.64 per acre.
The wheat farmer can equip today with the latest
tractor and tillage and harvesting equipment at 28%
less than he could for comparable machines ten years
ago—equipment, too, that enables him to cut the costs
of his operations by over 50%.
This is the contribution of the implement industry to the
furtherance of agriculture and Massey -Harris takes pride
in having played an important part in it.
