tation in motion pictures of the Bib
lical history of Daniel is attracting
wide attention in the world of photo
players. The scenario was written by
the Rev Madison C.. Peters a noted

old Testament histories are to be
found some of the most gorgeous and
spectacular scenes ever enacted upon
this earth,
This picture is shortly to be shown
in this city, with Courtenay Foote,

Two Sergeants'
Wins High Praise
Eminent Critic Praises Big PhotopIay
Coming to Atlanta This
Week.

The eminent dramatic critic, Louis
Reeves Harrison. has written a pow
erful review of the six-reel Pasquali
Interpretation OF the great French
military romance, The Two Ser
geants,' which is billed for an exclu-
sive first run this week in Atlanta.
MY feeling in watching this won
derful photodrama," he says, was
very much akin to that experienced in
reading Les Trois Mousquetaires, -
by Alexandra Dumas. 1t idealizes the
comradeship of men thrown into close
contact by the adventurous life of a
military career.
Lofty sense of honor, fraternal de-
Votion, intlexible adherence to duty
and revenge are all portrayed in mas
terly fashion. Tension is worked up
to Il high point, and the characterize
ton is without flaw.
Il am a lover OF fine acting, and it
counts for great deal in my esti-
mate of a play. In this case il is the
play that makes the fine acting pos
sblc.
There is also much to praise in the
matter of beautiful eXteriors and con-
sistent interiors: clear photography is
given additional value by accurate
tiniina, bat exceptional acting dom! -
mates all in this marvellous produc-
ton"
Such praise as the above from the
pen of a noted dramatic critic is a
striking testimonial TO the eminent
degree In which the motion picture
art has progressed during the past
few years.
