Paramount-Art special pic
ture, starring Henry B. Walthall
which is being shown at the Alca

who have witnessed the preliminary
showing of this popular story by
Louis Joseph Vance, to be one of
the most virile screen spe:tacles
produced in many years.
"The Lone Wolf" a novel writ
ten by Mr.. Vance, was widely read
and its central character, Michael
Lanyard, a French crook with the
genius of Sherlock Holmes aud dar-
ing of D'Artagnan, became highly
popular. Lanyard is the central fig
ure of "The False Faces" and in
this story he is seen as a reformed
man, bent on revenge against
Hun spy who has brought Lanyard's
wife and child to death in Belgium.
Lanyard is attached to the cause
of the Allies as a secret agent, and
he is introduced as he creeps across
No Mans Land into the French
lines with information of value re-
garding the Hun operations. He
boards steamship for New York
and on board this vessel he meets
with several remarkable adventures,
in which a German U-boat figures

and wins the love of a brave wo-

EAGLE ALWAYS AN EMBLEM
From Neurological Times the Monarch
OF the Air Has Been Chosen as
Representative of Power.

In mythology the eagle usually rep
resents the sun. The great mythical
eagle of India, the Garuda, is the
bearer Of the god Vishnu, victorious
by his brightness over all demons. In
Scandinavian mythology the eagle Is a
gloomy figure, assumed by demons Of
darkness or by Odin himself, con-
cealed in the gloomy night or in wind
swept clouds. The storm giant Hras-
weigr sits In the form of an eagle at
the extremity of heaven and blows
blasts over all people and on the great
tree Yggdrasil sits an eagle observing
everything that happens. When Zeus
was preparing for his struggle with
the Tttans the eagle brought him a
thunderbOlt, whereupOn the god took
the bird for his emblem. It naturally
became the emblem Of nations after
its long use in mythology. Ptolemy
Softer made it the emblem of the Egyp-
tian kingdom. In the Roman story
the eagle was the herald to Tarquinus
of his royal power, and it was one Of
the most important insignia Of the re-
public, and was also assumed by the
emperors, and adopted into medieval
heraldry after the time of Charlie
magne.

NJ NaVy Blue,

The blue color So prominent In the
uniforms of almost all marines is Of
hoary origin. Vegetins, in his fifth
book on the military affairs Of the
Romans, traces the origin of this color
to the Veneti, an ancient people
dwelling near the coast of BiScay, and
well versed in seamanship. 1t was
customary among them to paint their
outgoing ships as well as the maSts
and sails with a blue color; also their
sailors wore blue uniforms. Accord
ing to our author, the Latin word
"Venetus," which was both the name
of the color and that of the people,
points to its origin. From the Neneti
the custom was adopted by the Ro-
mans, Thus the son of Pompeius. aft
er defeating Caesars fleet in a naval
battle, wore the navy blue, although
entitled to the purple. The Vened
were subdued by Caesar after severe
maritime war in 56 B. G.

ARTIST MADE RED HIS COLOR
His Canvases With a Note of
That Hue.

On his trips to Pittsburgh for Jury
duty Chase used to pass certain
fence painted red an Offense to the
landscape, but in itself strong, beau
tiful color. AS he noted in passing
it twice a year that the color did not
fade though in the outdoors and in
sunlight, it was evident that the pig
ment had great permanenCy so the
next time he went to Pittsburgh he
hunted up the source of the paint
Having finally trailed it to the manu-
facturer, he bought all the red paint
that the man had on hand and had an
artists color firm put it up in tubes,
and with characteristic generosity
scattered it among his artist friends.
With this red many of his red notes
were touched in-those characteristic
accents which caused Kenyon Cox to
say that in his use of red note Chase
had signed his canvas.
When Chase was in England E.
Abbey sent him an earnest request
to come and see his Harrisburg deco
rations. At first Chase thought it i'm
possible but at the last minute he took
a flying trip TO kbbey's country house
by motor. When he saw the decOra-
tiOns his admonitiOn sounded proven
bial, but 1t was, as Abbey realized af-
terward, quite right. "What your cam
vas needs is spot of red" Abbey
took his advice.-Katharine M. Roof.
