G-RRR, DOG DAYS ARE HERE
Greeks Attributed Evil to Influence IF
.- the BOw-WOw Star

G-rrr! Dog days are with us. At
least Monday was looked upon as the
official opening of "dog days." All
dogs have their days now and will
continue to have 'em for some weeks
to come.
Dog days are popularity believed to
be the twenty days preceding and fol-
lowing the rising of t he dog star.
The rising of that star, however, is
not set event, but changes irregu-
larly. Therefore no definite time
can be set as to the opening of "dog
days." but July 3rd is generally looked
upon as the ime when they make
their bow-wow.
The ancient Greeks are given credit
for first observing the season. They
attributed mad dogs, boils, the sour
ing of wine, hysteria and hay fever
to the evil influence of the dog star
Canicula, which is due to rise about
this time of the year.
In order to appease Canicula the
Greeks every year sacrificed a fat
brown dog. The practice has long
since died out, but "dog days" con.
tinue. Hay fever, boils and angry
CANNES are also still with US.

Opera House Offerings

One of the principal scenes of "The
Great Day." the British-made Para
mount picture which will be shown
at the Opear House, Thursday, was
filmed in the famous Parkhead steel
works of William Beardmore & Co.,
Ltd, near Glasgow, Scotland. Every
facility was given Director Hugh
Ford for shooting" under the best
possible conditions. The Kleigs and
spotlights taken up north for the pur-
pose were fed by "juice" supplied by
the works. For several hours the
firms premises, material and work
men were placed at the disposal of
Mr.. Ford and those with him. The
glowing stream of molten metal was
poured white hot from the "ladles"
of 80 ton capacity The cameramen
were suitably disposed for taking sue
cessful shots The result is that the
film of "The Great Day" represents
realistically the impressive environ
ment in which some of the most eX-
citing scenes of the drama are en-
acted.
One scene of Behind Masks" Dor
othy Dalton's latest Paramount pic
ture, demanded the skillful driving of
high-powered foreign car carrying
Miss Dalton along country road on
! the outskirts of New York. When it
was time to "shoot" the scene, Direc-
tor Frank Reicher was astounded to
see the car come tearing down the
road and go through the required ac-
ton perfectly without rehearsal.
