A ) educators the motion pictures

the realm of literature The classic
masterpieces Of prose and poetry fur
nish ideal subjects for the motion
picture camera, and the films carry
these works in the most interesting
possible form 10 an audience which
could never be reached through the

1t will soon be possible to obtain

The present day is represented in the
films. All the greatest poems. novels
and short stories have been filmed,
not once, but several times by the
different producing companies. Thus
the discriminating student has a wide
variety Of treatment from which TO
choose
There is no longer any doubt that
the general ilablic~ appreciates the
best in literature when clothed in
new life and interest by the motion
pictures. This is proved by the en-
thusiasm with which the numerous
films OF classic subjects are received.
Standing room only" is the rule at
theatres where motion pictures of
works like Homer's Odyssey" Vic
tor Hugos "Ruy Bias" Sinkiewicz's
Quo Vadis," Dickens's Oliver
Twist" and Zola's "Germinal" are
being shown.
The man or woman who is already
familiar with these stories finds the
1eenest enjoyment in seeing their
characters reincarnated on the mo-
ton picture screen. And the person
who has never read them becomes
anxious 10 when ne mas seen them on

Records kept by the various public
libraries show that the motion pic
lures do encourage taste for good
reading. After film based on The
Ring and the Book" had been shown
in a Western city the libraries re
ceiyed within month more calls for
Browning's poems than they had had
in ten years before. Similar results
have been noted in other cities after
some OF the great masterpieces of
literature had been shown at the
motion picture theatres.
Writers OF the present day find
the demand for their books greatly
Increased through having them pro
duced in the films. Perhaps this may
partly account Tor the recent an
nouncement that no less a parsonage
than George Bernard Shac. the bril-
liant English satirist. has consented
to write for the motion pictures.

"a Hint for the Future"

Had the Republicans and progressives
of I'd Maine District united on Wheeler
for Congress and cast the same vote that
was cast on Monday, Wheeler represent
ing the Roosevelt policies, would have de-
feated McGilicuddy for Congress, And
in 1912. the Progressives fused with the
Republicans for such as Haines who later
turned against the Roosevelt Policies
Lewiston Journal.
1t is a good hint" Indeed We have
been trying to convince the tail that it
is not so far superior to the dog, and
that If it would quit deiuding itself
with the idea that it has wings and
can fly when it's dogs day comes, and
would join the parental, honest, home
dog, together they could accomplish
much. Even in the Second district, if
the 90 per cent. tail had joined the II
per cent dog Mr.. Sewall could have
been elected and the Roosevelt poll
eies" represented as completely and
honorably as if the II per cent. had
joined the % per cent. for Wheeler
To the minds of unprecedented intelli
gence, no one has turned against the
Roosevelt policies except in the
perverted imagination of the Lewiston
Journal editor. And the future Will
demonstrate this verdict.

Let's Boost.

The Germans may be hitting the
high places in an effort to get out OF
France ahead of the allies, but their
Marathon record isn't in 1t with the
flight of the knockers before the at
tack of the boosters of the Develop
Maine Movement. 1t is really getting
to be quite fashionable to say a good
word for the old Pine Tree State.
Folks are screwing their courage up
to point where they are not afraid
to rebuke a man who hints that Maine
isn't just as good as any other State
in the Union. AS this spirit spreads
the people of Maine may expect the
e'knocker" to become as rare bird as
the passenger pigeon. They say the
last of that breed of pigeon died Of
loneliness somewhere near New York
the other day!
Maine can offer the prospective in
weston timber lands. water powers.
farms, manufacturing sites. clay.
granite, lime rock. harbor sites, elm
ate. buildings. intelligent labor, splen-
did social conditions and everything
else that can be found in the West
and in addition It can offer the en-
eouragement of the general public.
That spirit is slowly breaking down in
the West. There Is a tendency IN
some sections out there to point to
few horrible examples of towns that
promised big things but haven't made
good. The promises of all those
towns were big and 1t was impossible
that all come through" Maine is
going to promise few things from
now on, but it's promises win be with
in reasonable limits and Maine people
can produce the goods.
The time has come to boost Maine.
Let's all boost little.
