NEWS OF THE PHOTOPLAYS

| pursuits. At the end of the year the
university again welcomes them, and
the young men are led into room IN
which Hindu Swami of great reputa-
ton as a psycho-hypnotist has pre-
pared to delve into their sub-consci-
| Gus minds to determine their moral
! fitness.
| 1t is an eerie chamber into which
they are left to themselves for short
period of probation, and soon the
young men find themselves enveloped
in a mental sweat. The Hindu and
the dean are observing them, and the
Hindu slowly gains control OF their
! sub-conscious beings. Then, one at
| ter the other, the young men are led
into an alcove in which hangs frame
with a blank screen. There is sug-
gested to the mind of each candidate
the image of nude child, and this
slowly resolves itself on the screen
into what is seen by the inner, or sub
conscious mind Of the individual.
Some see the image of fully devel-
oped young woman; to others beautl-
ful statuary is suggested by the nude
form Of the little child; finally one
whose mind is pure and wholesome
sees that same child, even younger,
in the arms and at the breast OF its
mother--a madonna.
The latter candidate is hailed as
the only one OF pure mind in the sex
tet. Then the Hindu draws curtain
and there stand revealed the six
young women to whom the six young
men had plighted their troths. Five
Of these are shamed by the young
men who failed in moral tests; the
sixth joins her betrothed.
Then comes to the pure youth
final, more crucial test. He is hypno-
tized and his inner self sent on pill
grinage into the garden of knoWl-
edge to withstand, if he can, the
temptation of woman. He meets q
Muse who leads him into a fairyland
whose deep recesses are magnificent
woodlands with sandy bowers and
linpid pools wherein disport them
selves Innocence and her naiIenly
companions, young women of ravlsh-
ing form, unclotned, but unshamed
and unafraid. To the pure all things
are pure, and evil knows no place in
their haunts. The young man is beset
by houris, but though the Swami, who
has his mind under control, seeks to
have them tempt him, he sees naught
but beauty and innocence, and
energies from this final test super
man. His betrothed, who herself had
asked to be hypnotized that she might
follow and see him, is overjoyed.
Upon returning them to their out
er-selves, the dean, the Swami and
the professor of eugenfcs congratu-
late themselves upon having com
pleted their first EXPERIMENT in mat
ing euges1ies couples.
In spite of the seriousness of the
play and its daring scenes, there is
not a single situation which has the
slightest trace of obscenity or sug
gestion Of lewdness. The production
has been handled with almost unbe-
liovalde de1icacy.

Catching Consumption.

Just about rs years ago an eminent
physician discovered that consump-
tion is not inherited, but that it is
communicated from an infected per-
son or from spit and other disease
contagion You don't inherit con-
sumption, you "catch it."
The reason why it seems to run in
families is that families generally
live close together, in the same house
or even in the same room. Thus the
house becomes infected. Because of
these germs it is common for one con-
sumptive death in family to be fol-
lowed by another. Yet it would have
been easy to destroy the germs and
prevent or cure the infection of other
members of the family. Louisiana
means to rid itself Of all consump-
tives. You can help. Send your do
nation to the Anti-Tuberculosis Cam
paign Headquarters, AT Camp street,

"The Victoria Cross"


In ''The Victoria Cross" which will
be the Monday offering at the
Grand, the Lasky company has found
material for an excellent photodrama
The story is of India, the time is
1857, and the incident the revolt of
the natives against the authority of
England. The action is fast and the
interest cumulative. Lou-Tellegen is
at his best in the part of Major Seton,
British officer, who wins the Vic
toria Cross and later, through drink
and falling a victim to the alluring
eyes of a highly placed conspiring
young woman, is reduced in rank.
The role Of Seton is of the dashing,
romantic sort, one that finely fits the
figure and bearing of Lou-Tellegen.
The supporting cast is composed of
motion picture veterans. In minor
role which he makes to stand out is
Frank Lanning. Opposite Lou-Telle-
gen is Cleo Ridgley, as Joan, the
sweetheart of Seton. Miss Ridgley
has strongly emotional part, as the
.iancee of any true-to-type soldier on
foreign service is liable to have cause
for occasional worry. Sessue Hay
akawa, the talented Japanese, is the
head of band of conspirators his is
a convincing portrayal. Mabel Van
Buren, Ernest Joy and Harold Skin
ner complete the cast. There are
large numbers of soldiers and native
Eroops. The staging is elaborate.

He maintains that the beneficial eff
fects of oysters before meals is due
to elements found in the juice. Ger
tainly, many oyster hishes are inn
sproved by the addition of the finely
favored liquor, and it ks well to know
that IL can be used notaonly with safe
ty but with beneficial 1esults.
And, finally, the louisiana oyster
stands high in the pure food class, as
none is fished for rnarEet within fifty
miles Of possible sewerage contamina-
ton. Neither are pIeservatives OF
any kind employed. he oyster is
handled under strictl ly modern meth.
ods-tonged one day, opened the
next, and, after being thoroughly
iced, shipped into the country land
the slightest necessity for using chem
ical preservatives is eliminated. The
fact that 99.9 per cent Of the Louisi-
ana oysters now marketed are taken
from salt water insures their free
dom from disease germs of all kinds.
"There is nothing more delicious
than the oyster eaten raw either on
the half-shell or in the subtle blend
Of sauces called cocktail but Meth
er can it be surpassed as cooked
food, and the recipes that follow, cul
ed from various authentic sources,
are only a few Of the numerous de-
lectable ways of preparing the oys-
ter for table consumption
A number of the best and most
famous recipes for the preparation
of the oyster as an article of food
are then presented, and the bulletin
concludes with the following clever
ode:
''Who is it when all foods are high,
Just winks her luscious, pearly eye.
And says: Il am the goods to buy,
Safe in my shell-like cloister-

In soup or salad, stew or pie
