"A Daughter of the Gods"

One of the most effective scenes in "A Daughter of the Gods" William Foxs $1,000,000 picture beautiful, the coming attraction at the Jefferson all this week, commencing today, mat inee daily, is Gnomeland the mythical Kingdom of a race of dwarfs. This particular scene. which cost fortune to produce, even a rivers course being diverted to create mountain torrent, Is one that appeals strongly to the children, for amid the bewildering thickets may be seen the little folk carrying on their daily task under the leadership of a dwarf who seems hardly high enough to keep his chin off the ground. Annette Kellermann among them. Is titian of perfect physical beauty.
 To produce this scene was one of the most difficult things that MT. Fox had to contend with, for 1t was no easy matter to procure children bright and attentive enough to follow the les sons given them as to what to do ana how to do it. Again, the parents of the children were fearful lest some harm come to their offspring, and to satisfy them. it was found necessary to Qelrdy all expenses LOT the pdfcAts during all the time that this fairy land like scene was being enacted
 A special building was erected with trained nurses and physicians in con- stant attendance to care for the little ones and their parents.
