"A Daughter of the Gods"

Six beautiful sequences of episodes,
all coherently interviewer, characterize
the William Fox production, "A Daugh-
ter of the Gods: The mermaid and
water episodes. involving reincarna-
ton; the Moorish city episodes, with
the colorful life and activities of the
people of the orient; life and amuse-
ments at the sultan's court: the fairy
and witch episodes, placing the ele-
ments of good and evil in juxtaposition
in the story, and the gnome city, de-
picting the life of 1900 fanciful little
people.
A scene of spectacular ingenuity is
pictured in the following story: An am
bilious, scheming girl, who has been
sold by her father into the sultan's
harem. plots to become his favorite
wife and at his death gain control over
his dominions; but is thwarted by a
maiden whom the gods protect. The ia
vorite then seeks the aid of the witches
in their uncanny cave during their
dances and lamentations under the guild
ance of Dragona, the prfestess OF the
evil spirits. She Is welcomed and per
mitted to witness their devotions be-
fore their grotesque idol and is prom
Used aid in destroying the influence Of
the dream maiden, provided she Will
pledge her soul to the witches, which
she does.
The sultan with his wives and large
and picturesque retinue are witness
ing the dances in the harem, when sud
denly the grotesque idol becomes AMI
mated, opens it's mouth, exposing huge
fangs, and begins TO emit showers OF
sparks and flames which envelope the
city until the good fairy of the story,
the dream maiden, comes to the rescue
and ouenches the fire with a torrential
downpour of rain.
The full story and description OF the
play have not yet been made public.
The foregoing are merely glimpses OF
some of the features.
