KeDermann, Film is Shown At
last
"A Daughter of the Gods Proves
a Delight to the Eye.

"a Daughter of the Gods Proves
a Delight to the Eye.
The much discussed cinema, A
Daughter Of the Gods" was witnessed
by a large audience at the Lyric theater.
There was out one opinion Of this latest
picture play. 1t was accounted alto
gether beautiful. In its effort to do no
more than offer a succession of exquisite
pictures it is vastly superior to any Of
the other pictures of magnitude, put
before the public. Not a small share
of its success was due to the absence of
any lesson. "A Daughter of the Gods"
makes no effort to teach. Mr.. Fox and
his associates were quite satisfied to do
more than show beautiful pictures to de-
light the eye of the spectator. In this res
pect "A Daughter of the Gods" is quite
Incompatible.
OF course the picture possess the great
advantage Of being in a large measure a
reproduction of marine scenes. Annette
Kellermann as a typical heroine of the
cinema was almost constantly in the
water-and it was not always hot water.
She dove from the top Of a tower into
the sea, she beat her way though the
waves pursued by blackamoors only less
expert than herself, and when the croco-
dies in the tank were converted into
swans she had to swim her way, with her
hands tied behind her back, into the
rapids and then into the toughest ocean.
Of course she ame wonderfully through
these perils. Moreover, she was alawys
a delight to contemplate, while her
skill as a swimmer has in no way
diminished
While the ocean scenes with the mer-
maids lying on the rocks and the water
swirIing over the coral were altogether
the most beautiful that any cinema has
shown, there was also the occasional
glimpse of crowds in the streets of the
built up city to amaze the spectators
that such an illusion Of actual life could
bereproduced by means altogether artif-
cial.
But the marine views will make the
success of "a Daughter Of the Gods," "
(which is a cinema that will have to be
seen by all. The showing of the new
! picture was a triumph for Miss Keller
mann, Mr.. Fox and all concerned.

How Would You Tie a Camel?

Because of its peculiar swaying mo-
ton in walking the camel has been
called the "ship of the desert" This
title may also have some reference to
the extreme stupidity and passivity of
the animal, which submits to great
loads, which it will often carry for
days at a time without stopping for
food or drink, with no more urging
than a ship would require from the
hands Of its pilot, says the Popular
Science Monthly. The manner in which
the drivers hobble the camels when
they stop for a rest is interesting.
They do not depend upon stakes driven
ip the deep, yielding sand, but simply
double back and tie one of the fore
legs of the animal, so that it can lie
down or rise up, but cannot move from

Few people realize that in the United
States there is a village composed en-
tirely of japanese, who live their lives
just as they did before leaving the
Flowery kingdom. This quaint spot of
interest is north Of the long pier, a
mile from Santa Monica, Cal. Here is
the home of a number of Japanese

and the daily routine Of their lives

lage were on the far shore Of Nippon.

Chief Executives and the Press.
Whom John Adams became presideI

When John Adams became president,
in 1877, he was ven more severely at
tackled in the press than Washington
had been. But his administration
fought the attacks. Armed by the
sediti0n law, which was passed the
following year, it sought to annihilate
the papers which it could not force to
surrender. In the fight, which lasted
four years, the people rallied to the
support of the papers and defeated
Adams in the election of 1900 by put
ting Thomas jefferson in the %presiden-
tial chair.

advanced as an actress in a way that is almost incomparable. She is said to realize as Cleopatra every phase of amatory enticement that conquered all who come under her influence. win ming both Julius Caesar and Mare An tony from the call of leadership only to be followed by their downfall It is graphic story that has been exposed with rare fidelity to historical records
 There are wonderful battle scenes such as the battle of Philippi: Octovius' army coming over the desert sands on the run to enter Alexandria. and the naval battle at Actium with the defeat of Antony and Cleopatra's ships, which IS the first naval battle ever recorded: 1t is shown on the screen for the first time. Thousands of people are seen in the production and hundreds of horses. many of them drawing speeding char iots over the sands
 Cleopatras entry into Tarsus in her royal barge, propelled by her black slaves at the oars, is one of splendor in setting. It is her first meeting with Antony, who succumbs immediately to her charms and they leave together on the barge for Alexandria, where he becomes slave to her bidding. The feast of Isis as it is given at the palace IS another gorgeous display of color and effect. The scene in the Roman senate and the death of Caesar. fol- lowed by Antony's oration over his body at the market place. surrounded by hordes o followers, is also great and spectacular

" omen Work1nq To Get N MOney
 To Buy Bonds

Declaring that she intended to laundry her husbands silk shirts and shampoo his hair, Mrs. Pliny A. TharaIdson yesterday stated that she intended to apply the money he would have used for this purpose to Liberty bond. She advised all other women to save in some fashion in order that she might earn bond.
 Mrs: TharaIdson is one of the most enthusiastic boosters of the new organization known as "l Am Earning My Liberty Bond-Are You?" which sprang into existence yesterday. She has already earned one of the badges on which this wording appears and is willing to help all other women get in line for the self same cause.
 The originator of the idea is Mrs. Otis Young who believes she must do her bit just as are her three sons who are in the service. She has thought of number of ways and means in which women can earn or save bond and when seen at Liberty loan headquarters made several valuable suggestions.
 Mrs. Young does not believe that any of the methods she suggests will cut in the labor market but rather than that will relieve the congestion that marks a number of branches of trade. She is confident that the woman of today has too much spirit not to want to feel that she is investing in a govern ment bond without having to ask aid of her husband. She spoke of the plan of one well Known local woman who will collect cast off clothing which she will sell on a commission basis-the commits sions to pay for the bond which she hopes to purchase in few weeks.
 Another woman will make war bread which will be offered for sale. Chickens and eggs will flood the market and bond buyers from the sale of garden flowers will also be among the list.
 With the shortage of trained nurses-women who have been nurses might make known their aim to again enter the profession on special cases. l am sure the physicians would be glad to detail them on case now and then" said Mrs. Young. Then, too, a number of women who were form erIy stenoeraphers might do few hours work occasionally for the fund used to prosecute the war for democracy wonder if the shops would not employ additional clerks on Saturdays or during a rush sale? There seems countless ways and am delighted to see how many of our girls and women are adopting them"

Marv Pickford at Lamara

Americas sweetheart Mary Ilck- ford-one of the most beloved of all the motion picture stars, holds the screen at the Lamara for three days, begin ming today appearing in her latest Aircraft success, Stella Maris.' Aside from the tremendous appeal of the story which is from the celebrated novel of William J. Locke of the same name. this bill serves to introduce this famous star for the first time in her career in a dual role. The roles are widely at Variance-Afor in Stella Marls, she is seen as the delicate invalid, sur rounded by every comfort and luxury, while at Unity Blake, we find her as a veritable ugly duckling -uncouth, ragged. ignorant and abused.
 The role of Unity Blake carries with it many big moments and many in tense scenes. in which it is said that even Mary Pickford appears to better advantage than in any role in which she has ever been presented.
 Marshall Neilan. who has been re- sponsible for many of the Pickford successes. has the handling of this pro duction, which enlists the services of many of the Aircraft favorites.

"CIeonatrav Great Spectacle

All who see Theda Bara in Cleo patra," William FoX's spectacular film production that opens at the Columbia theater Thursday afternoon for three days. with matinees daily, will realize the tremendous difficulties of such an undertaking. The ina agjnation of the audience is carried back nineteen hun dred years, in the settings of the many hundred scenes of historical accuracy. Temples and palaces in all gorgeous ness represent both Egyptian and Roman affluence. This is the occasional screen production that startles by it's magnificence and by the hugeness of it's representation.
 Theda Bara is already an idol of the screen but by her portrayal of the pas sionate .and sirenic Cleopatra, she has
