American Movies Lead the

At that time the exhibition was

projection of true motion pictures
on a screen was at the Cotton States
exposition at Atlanta in 1895.

record.
|, Muybridge, and, some other Eu-
ropean scientists, did develop a lin
lited manner of motion pictures be-
fore Edison.
These were a series of separate in
stantaneous photographs. When
projected on a screen in rapid Sc
quence the limbs of the figure
seemed to move in a life-like man
ner, but the figure itself could not
move from fixed point.
This merely was the application
OF photography to a we'll known
principle long before demonstrated
in toys, such as the zoetrope and
phenakistoscope. These action pho
tographs were shown at theaters as
early as 1884.
But the movie as it is known today
is possible only through the device
invented by Edison,

tied included two known as The

ply was perfected recently by Eliot
c. Howe, a motion picture director,

photoplays. The principal of the
invention is the use of three or four
complete lenses and lens aperatures
instead of one. The result is said
to be clearer, brighter images, with
great depth of focus, produced by
much shorter exposure.
Mr.. Howe has experimental so
far only with the notion picture
camera, but the possibilities of i'm
provement in photography of all
kinds are immense. By adjustment
beautiful soft-focus effects are pro-
duced. Its great depth and defn-
ing power will make the multiple
lens of almost universal focus, and
pictures produced by it will appear
to stand out from the paper round
ed, and in natural perspective. Color
photography will be vastly simpli-
fed by this method, using thrce
lenses with color filters for green,

ors of light. This will accomplish

A MERICA 10 the birthplace of
~ the movie, and this country
- still leads the world in cinema
art. Germany, among the great ma
tons, is one of the most backward.
Some creditable pictures have been
made there during the war. But
these are few and for the few. The
movies shown in the cheaper movie
theaters of central Europe, particu-
larly in the smaller cities, are still
on the level of pictures which were
being exhibited longer than 10 years
ago in Omaha.
A sort of barker stands beside the
screen and improvises a dialogue to
go with the pictures. That is &C
ceptable only when the picture is so
inferior that it will not hold the in
terest of the audience by itself.
In America this hasn't been done
since the early days of movies. If
one attempted it now, with pictures
at their present stage of develop
ment, he would be regarded as an in
sufferable nuisance and the audience
wouldn't be slow to protest.
Alexander Black sometimes is
credited enormously with exhibiting
the first motion picture, one called
Jerry"
But his story was told by series
of still photographs shown on a
screen to an accompaniment OF re-
cited description and dialogue. 1t
was picture story, but in no sense
was it moving picture.
Thomas Edison invented the cam
era which hrst made true motion
pictures. The idea for it came to
him in 1887.
The first real motion pictures were
made by him in his laboratories and
were shown to visitors between 1890
and 1892. The first public showing
was at the Worlds fair at Chicago

Vaccination Advised;
SMALLPOX In Canada

New York, Dec. 2O.-As a pre-
cautionary measure, taken because
smallpox is reported to be ravag-
ing the southern Canadian pro-
vinces, DR.. Royal S. Copeland,
health commissioner, issued a state
ment advising vaccination for all
residents of this city who have not
been vaccinated in the last four
years.
Although the health department
has reported no cases of smallpox
in the city for several days, and the
state board of health is requiring
all persons crossing the Canadian
border to present evidence of re-
cent vaccination, DIR. Copeland
deems it wise to take the simple
preventive means.
