Il can make better pictures myself"
insisted Adolph luxor, and the film
magnates of that period used to laugh
at MIN.
Then one day, ten years ago this
March, Adolph Zukor threw a bomb
shell. into the motion picture business
by announcing that he had persuaded
Sarah Bernhardt, greatest of all living
players, to make a screen version OF
her stage success Queen Elizabeth"
Sarah Bernhard First.
This was the first time an established
stage player of great reputation had
deigned to take part in the 1oWly
movies, at which actors of that period
used to sheer. They were afraid they
would lose their reputation and lower
their dignity if they entered the films.
But Sarah Bernhard could afford to
make the venture. She had attained
heights in dramatic acting which no one
else had scaled. She realized that the
camera would be the only way Of pre-
serving for future generations a living
record of her art s.
The appearance of Nine Bernhardt
in Queen Elizabeth" had the effect de-
sired by Mr.. luxor and it was not long
before the American stage stars were
being initiated into the mysteries of a
motion picture studio by the Famous
Players Film Company, which he had
organized. The success of Queen Eli
zabeth' prompted Mr.. Zukor to film
prominent players in their greatest stage
successes. He foresaw that the thou
sands of people all over the country
who were unable 10 go to the big cities
to witness the performances of these
successes would be just as satisfied to
see them enacted on the Screen.
With the combination of the Famous
Players Film Company and the Jesse L
Lasky Feature Film Company in 1916
Mr.. luxor, who remained the head OF
the big concern, took another great ster
forward. With large resources back OF
them, this company released success
after success until today it is generally
recognized that seven out of every ter

Corporation released its productions. In
fact, four of the most popular pictures
made in the last year are, THE SheilS,
The Affairs of Anatol," "The Little

Fourth Largest Industry.
Although it is favorite phrase that
motion pictures are still in their in
fancy the discriminating observer is
inclined to believe that this lusty infant
has outgrown its swaddling clothes now
ethat it has become the fourth largest in
dustry in the United States, exceeded
only by food packing, garment making
and steel manufacturing.
And now that motion, pictures have
become established as the basic enter
tainn1ent of the world, and the old
opera house is a picture show, the mo-
ton picture world is celebrating its
tenth anniversary of feature films.
Leading. stars, directors and authors,
representing the entire film profession
in Hollywood, sent this cablegram to
Sarah Bernhardt in Paris, inviting her
to come to America as their guest of
honor in nationwide celebration Of
the tenth anniversary of the first big
motion picture featuring stage star.
1--WE as representatives Of American
motion picture art invite you to visit
America to be the honor guest IN nation
wide celebration of tenth anniversary of
feature motion picture. This invitation
is in recognition of the fact that you were
frs. as you have been the greatest artist
to lend your genius to establish
motion pictures as art. Your example
ter years ago in creating Queen Eliza
BETH first feature picture, gave this
new art impetus which has carried it to
its position as the most important enter
tainment of the world. Your appear
ance on the speaking stage always has

projected through the Vitascope which
Thomas A. Edison had perfected.
Then followed years of moving pic
lures which did not accomplish much
except motion. You remember the
chase through crowded streets, where
everybody in sight used to be bowled
over. Chase pictures, they used to call
them, and one of the reasons for the
name was that theater managers finally
began using them to chase the audience
ont of their houses between their vau-
deville programs.
The stories they told were ordinary
and often tawdry. For years and years
motion pictures ran along at one level
until they were dying of their medi-
ocrity.
One of the exhibitors who used to
protest about the quality of available
pictures was Adolph luxor, who had
several small picture houses in New
York But the producers of Aims took
no interest in improving motion pic
lures.

BROWNS STAGE A
LATE RALLY AND
DEFEAT DETROIT.
For Second Time in Two
Days, St. Louis Comes
From Behind; SiSIer, In
iured. Out of Lineup.

st. Louis, Sept. 12.-For the Sec
ond time in two days, st. Louis
came from behind in the tail end
Of the game to defeat Detroit. The
locals took today's game to
after trailing the Tigers up to the
seventh inning and by virtue or
their victory and New YORK lule-
ness, advanced to within one game
OF first place. Sisler was out OF
the lineup because OF spralned
muscle in his right shoulder. SUI
fered in Yesterdays game by reach-
ing for wide throw from Gerber
after being hit by pitched ball in
practice. The star player OF the
major leagues will be out of the
game for at least a week and PROB
ably for the remainder OF the sea-
son, It was said. He is unable to
raise his arm above his shoulder.
The locals used three pitchers
Kolp, Van Glider and Pruett. The
latter relieved Van Glider in the
ninth and struck out Cobb after
Van Glider had given him three
balls. He also struck out Veach.
President Ban Johnson saw the
game from a box. He said his
presence here had no significance
beyond a desire TO see in action
one of the teams which may repre-
sent the league in the worlds
series. Work on temporary boxes
was started in the park today and
they will be completed in time for
the three game series with the
Yankees which begins Saturday.

MAN IS MEAN
WHO REFUSES To
TREAT A GUEST
This Is Statement of Prose.
Cutor in Conducting a
Liquor Case in the Fed
eraI Court.

"Only a mean man drinks in a
guests presence without offering
him a drink" said Assistant United
States Attorney Thomas N. Wilker-
son of Albuquerque, during the
process of a liquor prosecution in
Santa Fe Monday.
Judge w. G. Heacock, of Albu-
duerque, representing the defend
ant, said: 1--WE do not all of us
know as much about whisky and
beer as Mr.. Wilkerson seems to,
and the use of ice in connection
with it"
The case was that of the govern
mont against Jesus Crescente, who
was accused of violating the pro-
hibitory laws. Jose Soils, who had
been arrested at the same time,
pleaded guilty shortly afterwards
before a United States commission
er. Crescente claimed he was a
roomer in Soils house and had
nothing to do with the liquor.
In reply, Mr.. Wilkerson said
that in $500 cases orsyiolation of
the national prohibition act, he
could not recall one against a man
for taking a drink out of another
mans bottle. "But this plan is
growing popular where two boot
leggers are concerned" he contin-
ued, "for one of them to plead gull
ty and the other to deny guilt"

u. S. GOVERNMENT WILL
BUILD ROADS THROUGH
INDIAN RESERVATIONS

The New Mexico state highway
department has received word from
the commissioner of Indian affairs
at Washington that a decision has
been handed down to the effect that
hereafter the government will bear
the entire expense of all state high
ways and parts of state highways
crossing pueblo Indian reservations,
according to a report reaching here
from Santa Fe.
The state highway projects about
to be constructed, which come I'M
der this decision, call for the ex-
penditure of one million seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
The states share of this amount
on the present basis, would be
$673,750. This entire amount will
be saved to the state to increase its
expenditures elsewhere, as the work
on the roads across the pueblo
grants would have to be built any
how and will be continued, but in
some cases the class Of work to be
constructed may be changed to a
more permanent form. Among the
roads affected by the decision, ac-
cording to Albuquerqueans, are:
From Bernalillo to a point about
three miles north of Domingo, ex-
cept about four miles; about ten
or twelve miles between Bernalillo
and the Jemez country; between
Laguna and Gallup and between
Isleta and Los Lunas.

Through the Fire.

through Inc t1fe.
And out in perfect condition.
That nay be said of Vincent
Richards, the wonderful young
tennis player who replaced Wat
son Washburn on the Davis team.
For this youngest member of
Americas teams in the history of
the matches played the brilliant
game that was expected of him
when pitted against the Austral-
ian idols in doubles in the
matches just ended.
Richards. already No 8 in the
national ranking list, deserves
that place. The two Bills, big
Bill" Tilden and Little Bill"
Johnston are the only men who
must be placed above him. And
this is no reflection on the great
work of r. Norris Williams, the
fourth member of the team.
This greatest of tennis honors
came to Richards at the age of
10, four short years after he at
tracted notice by winning the ma
tionals doubles title when paired
with Tilden, his tutor. 1t was
Tilden who coached the boy in
the technique of the game. Til
denis dashing style of play pre-
dominates in the boys game. To-
day they play a doubles game
like Siamese twins. with the per-
feet team play of three years of
constant association.
Within three years of his debut
in national play Richards had
won five national titles in the
junior and senior ranks. He won
the national indoor title by de-
feating Hlden.
And now, at 10, he finds him
self at the top of the world. If
fate is kind he will be still in
his prime when old man Time
beckons Tilden, Johnston and the
other older stars from the game.
The future surely looks rosy for
this young lad.

LILY Leitzel Coming With Ring
ling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey.

Petite Lily Leitzel, worldfa-
nous aerial gymnast, will make
no airplane flights this season.
Her contract with the Ringing
Brothers specifically states that
she is to go no higher off the
ground than the dome Of the cir
Gus main tent.
To most girls the experience OF
flying about at the end of a rope
fixed in the very top Of a circus
tent, where the slightest miscal-
culation might result in serious
| injury, would furnish thrills
enough to last them for an ordi-
nary life time. Not so with the
daring Lillian. She regards her
occupation as a rather tame one.
Last summer she varied the
flights in half as many different
style planes. on more than one
occasion she all but drove the
circus managers TO despair with
her madcap undertakings. SO
when this seasons contract was
drawn, a special mo flight"
clause was inserted.
Lily Leitzel has the reputation
of being the most widely known
and best remembered of all cir
Gus stars and the Ringlings do
not propose having her risk her
neck in the clouds.
II suppose that If I did all my
flying over a net 1t would be
quite all right" pouts the dainty
aerialist but just wait until the
circus tour ends; then I'll show
them"
This seasons mammoth double
circus offers more stars than ever
before, and these have been "va-
ried" by the introduction of Eu-
ropes most sensational wild ami
NAL acts displayed in a trio OF
