DUKE OF YORK Is
\ REPEATING EFFORT
TO BRIDGE CULTS

London.-The Duke of York, sec
ond son of the king, will repeat this
year the experiment he made last
year for what has been called "the
encouragement of anobocracy and
the encouragement Of democracy"
So thorough an understanding
was then established between boys
from Westminster school and boys
from a Welsh steel works, following
"a football match, that a summer
camp was set up by the duke to
encourage good feeling between
boys Of different social status. Two
hundred public school boys with an
equal number from congested and
industrial areas were invited to
share the camp.
The selection Of the boys and the
arrangements for the camp this
year are in the hands Of the Indus
trial Welfare society, of which the
Duke Of York is president, but be-
yond that the society will have moth
ing to do with the project. IT,
In order that the boys meet on
terms of perfect equality cricket,
football and kindred games will not
be played because it is felt that
public school boys, having more
opportunities for practice, would
would hold an advantage over the
other boys at such games.
They will be divided into sections
Of 20, 10 being public school boys
i'll ID

food and engage in the same sports

SIX BELGIUM DOGS
DARING IN BATTLE
PROUDLY EXHIBITED

Client. Belgium.-Only six Of Bel
gums war heroes" remain. They
are not human heroes, but bril-
liantly intelligent and daring dogs
who distinguished themselves for
valor and fidelity on the field of
battle. Originally there were Is,
but 10 proved that even dogs can
be martyrs. Three were killed in
action at the front, three died OF
wounds, two were poisoned by the
Germans, one died Of grief over the
loss of his soldier-master. and one
was mercifu!ly put out of his mis-
cry when the enemy came to seize
him.
The SIX survivors were proudly
exhibited by their owners at the
palais des fetes recently. Some
have gallant acts of peace to their
credit as we'll as honors of war.
They have saved children from
drowning, stopped runaway horses,
caught burglars, protected sheep
and stood silent guard over their
masters lives and homes. Three
Of them have the cross of war for
heroism and devotion in the field.

sincere in the filming of this pic
ture. There was NO consideration
Of what would or would not prove
popular to the masses. The box
Office angle was never in mind"
However, Bryant need have No
fear about the box-office. Great
numbers still believe "Salome'
means a "hOotchy-kootchy" dance
and flock to circus side shows to be
disappointed,
Those persons will be disappoint-
ed In the film, too, for the story has
been handled with rare delicacy.
Nazimova almost makes Wilde SUI
ferable.
Thinking persons will find the
film a rare treat, even though the
story itself prove disgusting. Stu
dents Of Freud may find in this ex-
otto film some points in the the.
ory OF suppressed desires, while
those who believe that the philoso-
plies Of Wilde are mental aberra-
tons may find support for that the
DRY.
At least "Salome" grips the at
tention and forces thought and that
stimulation is lacking in most OF
the recent photoplays.

that all milk should be obliged to

better stated il it mad read "The

for psychiarists and psychopathists

If there be merit in telling a

recorded as one of the outstanding
photOplays of the decade.

BY JAMES w. DEAN.

New York, July S.-The mystery
Of love is greater than the mystery
Of death" This legend serves as
the opening and closing subtitles
of Nazimoya's screen version IF
"Salome."
1t is like stating an hypothesis
and proceeding with the proof I'M
til %. E. d. is arrived at.
Her portrayal of the role of Sa-
lone is based on Oscar Wilde's
story and Audrey Beardsley pic
ture.
Thus the film presents the famii-
lar story of Salome demanding the
head of the prophet on a silver
charger as reward for a dance she
had executed for Herod. The
prophet, having refused her a kiss
full upon the lips in life, is un-
graciously forced to yield. in death.
Salome pays for that kiss with her
life.
If you accept this as a love story,
the proposition is satisfactorily
proven, but there will be some who
