Explanatory Note cr cr cr This annual has two features which may require a little explanation. First, as far as an annual can be, it is an imitation of the celebrated One Thousand and One Nights, or the Arabian Nights' Entertainments, which consist of a series of stories told nightly by the beautiful Scheherazade to the Sultan Shah-ri-ar. In this annual the stories are told or pictures presented by the beautiful Manualada, who represents the Spirit of Manual, to Manualitus, her guest, who represents the stu- dent body, her visitors for a period of time. The Empire of Manu-al-Training is the whole school which is made up of different kingdoms, caliphates, and cities representing the different classes, clubs and organizations, and ruled over by the head boy or Emperor, commonly called Haroun-al-Nusbaum, after the celebrated Haroun-al-Raschidg and the head girl, his consort., the Empress Zobeide. The stories told to Manualitus represent the year's work of the classes, clubs and organizations. The genii, who in the old. stories were supernatural beings of great power, and who frequently appear in the form of smoke rising from a jar or other object, represent the faculty in general, but especially its masculine members, while the word perl is applied to the women teachers. Marids and J inn are particularly powerful genii. Suleiman or Solomon was the ruler of the genii. The word is used to designate Mr. Bradley. SHEYTANS-BVU genii. SULTAN on SULTANA AND CALIPH-rulers or presidents. GRAND Vlzmn-chief minister or vice-president. Scalar:-secretary. KEEP!-:B or THE TanasURn-treasurer. VIZIEB ' EM13 t, -other otllcers. CALENDAR-a holy man who wore a costume peculiar to his sect. SAGE-a wi e and learned man. CRIER-a man who, in old times, published the news by word of mouth. The second feature referred to in the first paragraph is the use of the scenario form in the stories. This was employed to make the stories brief and vivid. If anyone should object that this style is inappropriate in connection with the Arabian Nights, we have only to refer him to the magic tube-the first living picture machine-and to tell him that nothing is impossible in the One Thousand and One Nights' Entertainments. The following scenario terms have been used: Fonnwonn-the preface to the photoplay. BLEND 'ro-is used when two or more scenes bear directly on each other, making one scene melt into another. INsmzr-any inanimate article or item having special business in the story. SUB-'rrrnn-any explanatory matter not spoken by one of the fllm's characters. SPOKEN TITLE-represents words spoken by a. character. FADEoU'1-is employed to show the termination of an episode. CLosE-UP-near View of any character or important bit of action. E31
