OGDEN PAPERS LOUD IN PRAISE
FOR CLEOPATRA FILM AND

The people who few years ago
scoffed at the motion picture idea as
passing fad are now lined UP with
the throng that buys the best seats
and enjoys every minute of the show.
Cleopatra" is one of the most
superb dramatic expressions ever
achieved by the motion picture art.
The work of the artist throughout
the production is everywhere evid-
ent. An entire mile of film is used
to project the picture, cons stiTg Of
five parts. The picture is the result
of an outlay of more than s45, 1000.
Three months were necessary for its
rehearsal. The scenery and its set
tings are rare. Even to the costumes
an artistic taste seldom achieved in
motion pictures is accomplished.
Miss Helen Gardner as Cleopatra at
times wears gorgeous gowns, drape-
ries and rare jewels. Many of the
weayes of her costumes are he r.
looms purchased in the seventeenth
century in Egypt, thus appropriate.
ly giving touching finis in accord
ance with the supposed surroundings
If the dramas scene.
1t cannot be said that the pre-
duction of Cleopatra" is realistic.
The producers probably, did not in
tend that it should be considered
as such. But it does convey great
expression, admiration, beauty; It
is a romantic idealization of Cleopa-
ira. 1t attracts and interests
through its beauty, thought, pictori-
al arrangement, and dramatic ma
ture. The picture in itself is an in
spiration for those inspiring quail
tiles in womanhood seldom under
stood by man. Pictured is the re-
markable romance of wonderful
woman.
The picture begins with the tine
that Cleopatra had been on her Eg-
S.Sthan throne ten years after she
had been placed there by Casear.
AS history teaches, this queen had
been tormented throughout her ear
ly life. She had, however gained
firm foundation and her great moral
strength brought her through many
trials. But she made her fatal mistake
that of ordering her ships to turn
away at Actium-even though the
tide of battle was against her lover,
Marc Anthony. 1t was her fear-a
beautiful woman fear-that she
might lose the man she loved and
become a lesser thing to the man
than power, his great idolatry.
Miss Gardiner sportrays Cleopatra
In a wonderfully real manner. 1t
would ,probably tax the artistic pow
ers of Sarah Bernhardt to take the
part. Miss Gardeners wonderful pow
ers of execution are shown to best
advantage in the final film, when
as a prisoner of Octavius, and An
thonyc dead by his own hand, she
bows to the god of love, thrusts a
serpent in her bosom, which stings
her to death,

Amazing Discoveries About the PUSHING POWER OF SUNLIGHT

the vortex OF the sun by old SOILS force of gray
it-by the counterpush of the sans light
If you really wish to appreciate how vigorously
any ignted or luminous body pushes, you may
easily carry out a little experiment yourself.
Turn on an ordinary electric bulb and hang near
1t thin sheet of aluminium suspended from a
string. There will appear after little while
slight rise upward of the metals free edge much
as trapeze performer swings from the angle of
the trapeze
DR.. G. G. West, young physicist, has elab
Grated upon this experiment to show in a highly
ingenious and accurate manner the pushing
effect of even so small light as comes from an
Edison lamp His investigation was made NOT
IN the air, but in almost a vacuum bottle In
which very little hydrogen was placed A
trace OF mercury was also present, and he used
gold leaf. better known gold beater's skin"
instead OF metal.
Hydrogen gas was used because most celestial
bodies, such as meteors, stars, suns comets and
the like are often surrounded in their outer
layers with hydrogen gas. 1t is therefore Ger
tain that hydrogen interferes but slightly, If at
all, with this wonderful power of light to push
and repel heavy metallic or other objects.
Dr.. Jerome Meyers the electrical engineer,
estimates that If man were to stand facing the
edge of a cliff with the sun at his back, and all
reflected light we're to be neutraized or other.
wise checkmated from acting, he would be forced
over the edge beyond the shadow OF doubt.
