BIG SCENES BUILT FOR
FEW FEET OF MOVIE

The lengths to which it Is neces-
safy to go in order to produce a de-
sired effect in great motion picture
spectacles is best eXemplified in THE
Birth of a Race" which is being
shown at the Belasco Theater. Huge
settings resplendent in gorgeous Mt
tings and equipment were erected,
weeks being required in the process,
only to be Struck in directorial
parlance, after only a comparatively
few feet had been photographed. In
the Egyptian scenes of the Mosaic
period, great palaces are shown, just
as the temple at Jerusalem at the
time of the CrucifixiOn are repro
duced.
1t was necessary in many cases TO
go far in order to find the proper
location. The Garden of Eden scenes,
for instance. were filmed in little
delIs along the Florida coast, while
New Jersey and New York States fur
nished the locale for the modern
scenes. With these. points in view
IL is easy to credit the statement that
the film required more than two years
in it's making.

Marion WOuldn't
Give Up These
War Relics

Marion Davies, who appears in the
screened version of Robert Chambers

appeared seriaIIy in the Cosmopolitan
Magazine and in The Washington
Times, and which is announced for

ceipts OF two war mementos with
which she would not part for any
price, she says.
These were brought to Miss Davies
when the TWenty-seYenth made. its
triumphant temperance in New York
harbor. and were presented to her on
the day Of the parade In New York Of
that division. One of the mementos
is a portrait of Miss Davies herself
brought to her by her cousin, Lieut.
Edward Clarke. However, IT Is not
in it's original shape and could not be
called by anyone a thing of perfect
beauty. 1t is worn and torn; IL was
carried by Lieutenant Clarke all
through the period of his active
service.
The second souvenir is a shaft of
copper, about eleven inches high and
two inches wide. Above a beautifully
wrought cross is the Kaiser's crown.
The whole is backed with four bullets.
Lieutenant Clarke recovered them
from the body OF a German, shortly
after he Mad escaped from a dugout.

The Birth Of a Race the remark
able motion picture spectacle which
has been taxing the capacity of the
BelRsco Theater for the past seven
days, has been held oyer for a second
full weeks run.
The picture is divided into one
parts. the first being a historical al
legory; the other, an absorbing story
Of America in wartime which bears
out the theme established in the
earlier part. Scenes include the
Garden OF Eden, the building of
Noah's. ark, the time of Moses, and
the exodus of the Israelites from
Egypt, the Sermon on the, Mount, and
the Crucifxion, the allegory termi-
mating with the discovery of America
by Columbus.
The story itself deals mainly with
two families in America, one Ger
man and the other Irish. The head Of
the German family is the owner of
a great foundry and his secret alli-
ance with his fatherIand and the con-
sequent discharge OF all employees
who do not sympathize with the Hun
cause precipitates a great strike ana
a powerful climax.

POLLS

As q character study Mickey" the
famous aim comedy, which will be
shown at PoIPs Theater all this week,
beginning today, is real work of art.
You will never forget this adorable

touches in Mickey" as well as humor
laid in with delicacy and q sure
