M. MAETERL|NCK <.
 GOES INTO MOVIES

The bluebird of happiness has gone on
 a new journey, to the future joy of all
 those Americans who daily and nightly
 crowd the motion picture theatres. The
 famous bird is headed directly for the
 Goldwyn studios at Culver City, Cal, and
 the alert and twinkling eyes of Maurice
 Maeterlinck are watching the flight from a special car which is bearing the famous
 author and his beautiful young wife to
 an environment altogether new to him. Maurice Maeterlinck has yielded to the magic of the new art-one of the most celebrated of the authors to do so, He has agreed to create one picture a year for the Goldwyn company and prepara- tory to his writing his initial production is to visit the studios out west and study the possibilities and limitations or the motion picture so that very soon he will be learning these things in little inni- vidual world populated by Pauline Fred erck. Tom Moore, Madge Kennedy, Ma bel Normand, Will Rogers, Jack PicK- ford and others.
 While several of the Belgian master s works have been picturized, he has never before contributed themes directly to the screen, as he now plans to do.
 .Tt seems to me that America does not give the motion picture the artistic importance it merits, he says in de- l scribing his reasons for his new venture l People seem to consider it an inferior | type of art form. Tn my opinion, how ever, it's potentialities are unfathomable | for it can teach in terms of beauty and 1 of ideals in a manner not to be found i'll i any other medium of expression.

the footlights
 His return in "The Copperhead marks the coming back of great screen artist in striking drama. The years that Mir. Barrymore has been ab- sent from the films have not been enough to make him forget his train ing of years, and he is the same fin- ished artist in ''The Copperhead'' that he was in the years past. He brings to the portrayal of difficult role the handling of a master.
 His long familiarity with Che spoken drama was great asset in the filming of the story, and it shows in the smooth unfolding of the plot and the able handling of difficult role by the star. He is trained in the handling of the more difficult type of charac- terization and the central role in "The Copperhead" is one that calls to the fullest on his talents.
 "The Ccpperhead" is an intense drama. It is the story of man who endures torments for the sake of q principle in which he believed to the fullest. Called upon to portray in life role that would tax a mans soul to the utmost, "The Copperhead" did not fail in the trust that was shown in him.
 | And the reward for his endeavors was the reward only of the Knowledge I of duty well done, and this knowl- 1 edge he could not share with anyone l else.

"The Copperhead, !" Striking
 Drama, Al Colonial Monday

In the annals of the stage, the most striking success in the dramatic field in some years was The Copperhead,' in which that eminent actor, Lionel Barrymore. was starred. Now this ab- sorbing story of critical period in
 the history of America has been pro-
 duced for the screen and it will be shown as the new Paramount-Artcrafe
 feature at the Colonial the first three days of this week, starting tomorrow.
 Of all theatrical families, there is
 none more famous than the Barry
 mores. For generations they have
 been appearing before the footlights,
 and no generation was more eminent than the present. Lionel Barrymore and John Barrymore have just com pleted two seasons that amounted to triumph in "The Jest" and MT. Bar rymore rested long enough from his stage success to make "The Copper head" picturized from another of his stage triumphs.
 However, MT. Barrymore doesn come to the screen with only stage ex- perience behind him. Movie fans of Several years standing will recall his many appearances in striking roles in 1 the early days of the new art. He was

far-reaching reforms. So this vivid page of yesterday in Alaska, from the facile and fearless pen of Rex Beach, shows the trails of graft and greed and points out their glaring cruelties and illegalities so trenchantly that it started something something that arrested the spoliation of Alaska.
 This thrilling romance of the gold fields
 of our great northwest, if steeped in
 sentiment, is strong in fierce primitive passions inspired by insidious evils that coil about the control of the great gold industry of Alaska. These strong eie- ments in the melting pot of this romance fuse to make the great work intense, picturesque and potential beyond com pare.
 William Farnum as Glenister is superb. Glenister is 8 young American who has come to Alaska to make his fortune and 1 finds that big interests with evil in- | fluences are about to ruin his labors for years Blocked in the courts by United States troops, and by evil interpretation
 of the laws himself. he fights on and on and finally sees his efforts win the suc- cess for which he has dreamed. Spectacu- lar scenes abound and the entire produo- ton cannot fail to make a lasting im- pression on any one who witnesses the picture.
 | An all-star cast supports Mir Farnum including such favorites as Kathlyn Vii. lems, Frank Clark, Bessie Eyton and Iothers

 As the title implies, there is something greater than fame. The moral driven home in this story is that it is a happs heart, and that success can be obtained through eontentment of mind, which can be obtained by patience and understand ing.
 In the role portrayed by Miss Hammer sten--a young country girl, who goes to New York to win success on the operatic stage, and triumphs over obstacles and temptations-she has a. wide scope for her talents. How she meets with all types and classes and how she decides to work cut her own salvation and yet win suc- cess make this photodrama one of up- usual interest.
 The stage settings and atmosphere are in keeping with the excellence of the cast and story, and the gowns worn in the production will attract special atten- tion.
