When Douglas Fairbanks filmed
1.-THE Three Musketeers,' he fulfilled
the ambition of his life. Undoubtedly
no vehicle Is so typioally Fairbanksian
or offers so fine an opportunity to play
upon the entire gamut of things his
trionic as does this, his sixth United
Artists production.
The film version OF 1.-THE Three
Musketeers" is based not only upon
the famous novel of Alexander Dumas,
but also upon the memoirs of OAR
tagnan himself. In fact, much of the
material upon which the Business"
OF the photoplay Is built, much that
gives IL the human touch, was found
in DArtagnan's memoirs and not in
the novel, although it was from the
Dumas story that the foundation
stones for the picture plot were OBJ
tanned.
The management of the Isis theatre
where this attraction is scheduled to
open next Monday for a three-day
run, announces that "The Three Mus
keteers' will be given the most elabo-
rate presentation ever accorded a
photofeature by that house. Manager
Jones has arranged a special prolog
in keeping with the picture and will
use the music specially prepared for
this production by Louis Gattschalk
noted composer, which in itself is said
to be an evenings entertainment.
There are many reasons which give
authority to the bid for everlasting
fame on behalf of this photoplay. First
OF all, the Dumas novel and the me-
moirs of D'Artagnan embody the
greatest wealth of hlmable material
ever uncovered. Only the imagination

picked out. The picture machine and
operator is transported to this dairy,
but accompanying him is a professor
from a leading university who is con-
sidered to have knowledge that is the
very last word on the subject of cows,
milk, butterfats and dairying in gen.
eral. Also practical dairyman who
stands at the very top of his profess
sion is in the party. Then there is
the general film manager. These three
decide upon the manner in which the
picture is to be made to bring forth
the best results from the students
viewpoint. Every detail of dairying is
shown, with close-ups on all features
that require close study when in text
books. Time for exposure is consid-
cred, for in each showing of the films
a professor and a practical dairyman
instruct the pupils in the finer details.
Health and hygiene are included in all
pictures.
The same system OF taking the pic
lures is applied to every film. In the
machine shop pictures, for example, an
expert machinist and professor in
mechanical engineering both oversee
the picture filmed, and watch not only
for detail that the student needs but
for the details that the student should
be cautioned to avoid.
