'When We Were 81" introducing
to the motion picture public William
Elliott.
AS the wayward boy whom the Trim.
ity, the three friends Of his dead
father, have so much trouble in saving
from the consequences of his folly,
William Elliott is admirably cast, and
his denotement of the reactionary emo
tions of youth is always convincing and
often touching. In all the action OF
the screen version of this noted play
realism is dominant but there is always
underlying it pure sentiment. whole
some and inspiriting and an impressive
moral lesson that never intrudes upon
the progress of the drama but rather
that issues naturally from the develop
ment of the plot.

In Mem0riam

In the death of Mrs. ID. H. Thorn the
community has lost one of its strong
characters. Mrs. Thorn was woman
of rare mental endowments. and with
all, possessed such qualities of heart
tba enabled her to help those who
needed her assistance. Her husband,
son and daughter have full measure
of sympathy in their great bereave-
ment. If they can but look beyond they
will see their loss is her gain. In the
suddenly passing on of this worthy
woman she has joined the dear ones on
the other shore, where the sorrows and
trials of life are over and tears and
fears are unknown.

The Spanish Jade.

~y ~A'~ "A~-~J
"The Spanish jade"
Few films have stronger and more
gripping plot than The Spanish Jade.
If the production had no other merit
than the strength of its plot it would
deserve to rank high, but the strength
of the plot is not its only point of
merit. The types and the atmosphere
in the film story measure up to the
highest expectations. One cannot run
through 10 pages of Spanish literature
without encountering the very types
and the very atmosphere which made
this film so different from the general
run of film plays. There are many of
the exterior scenes which are obviously
faxed" but the imitation is always
clever, and though we all abhor artifi-
cial exteriors in film, we must admit
that the designer worked with a good
original before his eyes. Nor are all
the exteriors artificial. Some are won
derfull1y fine; so much so that one re-
grets that there was any necessity for
artlcfial props anywhere in the film.
The elements, mystery, adventure and
pathos have been most skillfully woven
into a story which is bound to hold the
interest of the spectator every part of
the way from start to finish. The Wis
ualization of the characters is perfect
in every detail. This means first that
the spectator is able to understand the
character almost the very instant il
appears on the screen. The Spanish
grandees feeding on dry bread and all
onion and spicing the frugal meal with
recollections Of past glory, the cring-
ingly faithful servant, the unbridled
youth scorning discipline and flattering
impulses of passion, the blond Spanish
beauty (there are such beauties) grace
full with womanly dignity all her
own, the Englishman disappointed in
love and travelling in Spain to forget
his disappointment-all these are fig
ures that might have stepped from the
pages of any old Spanish book of fic-
tion. 1t must be noted, too, that all
the minor characters-and there are
many of them, are as finely drawn and
as true to life as the leading parts. In
this perfection of detail lies one of the
great charms of the picture; the other
is the powerful. we'll developed plot,
which never lags nor halts nor digress-
es for a moment.

Dramatically, spectacularly and pho
Geographically, George Kleine's produc-
tion of the Cines version of Anthony
and Cleopatra is the premier photo
drama of the world. Nothing equal to
it has ever been produced. 1t suffices
to say that it begins where Quo vadis
left off. and Quo Vadis was supposed
to be the last word in photo dramatic
art. This is the concensus of opinion
of everybody who has seen Anthony
and Cleopatra.

FIRE AT MIDNIGHT DISCOVERED
IN TIME.

The Colored Masonic Orphans Home
in Americus, narrowly escaped des-
truction by fire night or two since,
through the watchfulness of an at
tcndant, who was making the rounds
of the building at midnight. 1t seems
that in the ironing room hot iron left
there in the late evening came in con-
tact with some light material, causing
a blaze which had reached the ceiling
when discovered. The bucket brigade
over there put out the fire ere any
great damage resulted. The large
brick structure is owned by the Col
ored Masonic Grand Lodge of Georgia,
and is a very valuable property.
