The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1919-02-28

Mr.. De Mile is certainly on the
right track to bring out this kind of
story, enlightening people who are
content to regard the whole subject
rather specifically, as he IL in tipping
the story with interesting people,
rather than producing dull vehicles
TO explain some exacting star OF
limited histrionic ability. His visual.
i~zations have an added charm in their
beautiful appeal to the senses-they
reach thought and judgment through
sentiment. He has taken a group Of
selfish and s~elf-indulgent people in
easy circumstance and clearly set
forth their lack of fine sentiment and
higher morality by methods so subtle
that the motive is felt rather than
seen.
The work of author and producer
is apparently f~rictionless in every
scene of development except the con
Guiding ones, which seem irrelevant
and such a serious drift from the
main subject into a phase of the war
as TO constitute almost an anti-climax.
This descent from the more import
ant main issue to one not entirely
pertinent, particularly at the conclu-
sion, is a serious fault, though one
appealing in a very large proportion
of plays produced on the screen. Not
at all irrelevant, wholly logical and
well-placed, is a little sideshow pic
turing a burning motion picture
studio. Not only is it highly realistic
and entirely appropriate, but II affords
a flash of Keystone Comedy, in which
FULLY Marshall as director and Ray
mond Hatton as an actor in costume
distinguish themselves. The whole
effect during five reels is animated,
sensuous and so attractive that its
sum of values is very high-Advt.

the celebrated scenes reproduced with
commendable realism, the Harriet
Elizabeth Beecher Stowe book, which
contains such a powerful sermon
against slavery, is bound to prove en-
t%ertaining to the public even at this
late day.
There is no necessity for retelling
the familiar story. The histories of
Little Eva, Topsy, Uncle Tom, Eliza,
Simon Legree, and the rest of the
characters are known the world over.
Marguerite Clark's double of the little
white embodiment of goodness and
the small black shadow of mischief
is among the most interesting of her
screen representations. The range
demanded is a wide one. The death
of Little Eva might have been more
impressive, but the admirers of this
clever artist will be quick to recogn
ize the sincerity and skill that are to
be found in her work.
"A Daughter of France
William Fox presents Virginia
Pearson in a story of love and war
behind the German lines that differs
from the usual run of wal plays.
Louise de Ciron refuses to leave
her chateau when the Germans come
and presently the enemy have &C.
cupied the town Rudolph Won Korr, in
command of the troops, makes love
to Louise, but she repulses his ad-
vances. Fritz, a Frenchman, seeks to
take advantage of Louise while she
is unconscious and is discovered and
killed by Rudolph. Believing that
Fritz was killed in the defense of her
honor, Louise wounds Rudolph, but
nurses him back to health in remorse
for her action. Louise's brother, Paul
sends for her and this leads to a most
unexpected climax.
1--WE Can't Have Everything"
In this interesting story of marri-
age revolt Mr.. De Mile has pictured
with keen realization that any good
comprehensive survey of the aspects
of modern marriage and divorce can
not fail to interest a very large pro-
portion of the average audience. Con-
sidering the supreme importance of
marriage to society as now consti-
tuted it is a matter of wonder that
more plays of this kind have not
been made.

"Uncle Toms Cabin"

The most popular play of the Am

ties when they are entering the church

"All right thinking people must

to stand before the altar on their we'd
ding day literally dripping with con-
fetti. The practice is also unkind.
The wedding day is a great event in a
girls life. Much time and money
have been expended on costumes. The
bride and bridesmaids take a pride in
looking at their best, and it is abomi-
nable that vulgar, brainless people
should he allowed to smother them
with confetti.
Strong measures" the vicar adds,
Should be taken to put this down and
we wish to give notice that people COW
cred with confetti will not be allowed

have to come to church in a decent
and fitting condition before the cere-

H. C. FRICK, FAMOUS
STEEL MAGNATE, DIES

New York, Dec. 2.-Henry Clay
Frick died here today.
Mr.. Frick suffered an attack of pto-
maine poisoning early in November.
He had nearly recovered from this
when complications developed. He
was So years old.
The career of Henry Clay Frick has
formed one of the most fascinating
chapters in the romance of industry
in the United states. At 10, boy on
a farm in family of only ordinary
means, he was, at 90, a man of so
many millions that his fortune, like
those of Andrew Carnegie and Rookie
feller, was largely matter of guess
work even to himself. 1t has been said
he was north more than 100000, 900,
perhaps as much as $500, 900, 900.
Mr.. Frick built up the greatest coke
business in the world, and acquired
such vast interests in steel that he was
also one of the principal magnates in
that industry, and in rounding out his
career he became known as one of the
worlds greatest collectors OF master
paintings,
