tail, j. Gordon Edwards, who directed
Nero" the big William Fox special

rectors out one day, in Rome, to dis
cover the men of some of the famous
banquets served by the notorious ty-
rant who is supposed to have 'fiddled
while Rome burned"
The assistant made a tour of all the
museums in Rome and returned with
the following menu list, which was ac-
tually served at one of Nero's state
dinners. 1t included:
Dormies stuffed with honey and pep
per, sausages, plums with kernels of
pomegranates, peafowl eggs with wheat
ears in the center, peas, beef kidneys,
custard, lobster, fowl crammed with
nuts, paps of a sow powdered with SUI
gar, rabbit larded with fish fins, wild
boar, dates. almonds. little pigs stuffed
with sweetmeats, ~blackbirds' tongues.

honey, bacon %drippings with goose liv-
er gravy. gatherings, cells stuffed
with branded peaches, drinkable per-
fumes, salad of chestnuts and hearts
of roses, wine-flavored whipped cream
floating on chilled turtle soup.
There were more than one hundred
varieties of wine.
Mr.. Edwards glanced at the list.

GUY BATES POST To
APPEAR IN SCREEN
ROLE Of TENTMAKER
Tour of Orient Made to Gather
Rare Persian Fabrics
and Costumes.

Richard Walton Tully has completed
the selection of the staff who will aid
him in the production of his second
motion picture, based upon his own
play, Omar, the Tentmaker," and in
which Guy Bates Post will enact the
role of the famous Persian poet as he
did for so long on the legitimate stage.
His latest acquisition is Francois Ma
zare Aga, who will serve as Persian
expert and technical director. With
his intimate experience and knowledge
OF Persian life, Aga is especially well
equipped for the important position to
which he has been appointed.

STA at an early age by his father, who
was in the diplomatic service. Child
hood impressions and recollections of
Teheran and other Persian cities re-
manned with Aga through his art stud
les at the University Of Sorbonne,
where he specialized in decorative arts.
After the world war, in which Aga
served as an officer in the flying corps,
winning the Legion of Honor and other
decorations, he returned to his art
work, achieving considerable promi-
nence with his sketches of Partisan
life. Later he went to London, Italy,
Greece, Turkey and Egypt, and then
sojourned for a year in Persia, spend
ing several months in Nishapur, the
birthplace of Omar Khayyam.
Another recent appointment by Tul-
ly is that of James Ewens, who has
been engaged as assistant director.
Ewens Is a recognized leader in his
line, and most recently was associated
with Douglas Fairbanks, selecting the
ensemble for Fairbanks latest
picture, 1.-The Spirit of Chivalry."
The remainder Of the staff win be

nous consignment of costumes and

Talk Better Quality

At a recent meeting of the Los
Angeles Advertising club at which the
Better Pictures association was rep
resented, sentiment against narrow
local censorship and support for the
idea of improving the quality of screen
plays was expressed.
J. A. Quinn, president of the as
ISOLATION, declared that the public de-
sired clean photoplays at all times,
although the sensational film might at
tract for the moment. He stated that
the successful exhibitor was the one
who maintained a standard Of moral
excellence in his offerings.
Rev. G. A. Briegleb, head Of the
ministerial censorship committee. de-
clared against such offensive features:

more for the right kind of stories. YOU
will get an avalanche of fine material"

that they want indecent pictures"

He never lost a leg until two years

Without exception the largest purely
dramatic organization sen on tour in
many years, carrying 80 people on its
payroll, is required to interpret that
great success, John Drinkwater's "Ab-
raham Lincoln" which William Harris,
Jr. will present at the Grand theater
two nights. June S and 8.
There has never been more than n
organization appearing in this play,
and the metropolitan company to come
to this city will be headed by Frank
McGlynn, who created the role of Lin
coin.
Entertaining is the best word to apply
to Abraham Lincoln While it might
not suggest the usual traffic of the
theater in the matter of diversion, all
who have seen it testify that in its
every ONE it does accomplish this
effect. That Mr.. Drinkwater in writ

ing it. have pictured realistically and
with full power one of the great men
of the worlds history makes this rec
ord all the more unusual.
Abraham Lincoln" has been given
a mounting consistent with its impor-
lance. And it may be set down here
that many years in the theater has
brought no more important attraction
to the local stage. There are no small
parts in the play and each character,
no matter how few the lines. must be
interpreted by a player Of established
Importance.
There are six scenes in abraham
Lincoln and each of them is set with
realism and attention to such detail
as makes for historical accuracy. The
costumes are all u accord with the
period and this important play is SO
well produced by Mr.. Harris that it
consistently maintains illusion of time
and place.

final episode Of ''The Secret Four" and
a chapter of Aesop's Fables.
Romance. adventure and plenty of
thrills are all rife in Miracle of Man
hatran," with Elaine Hammerstein,
who portrays a young society woman.
In the short space of an hour she is
placed in the position of a ~friendless
waif who is forced to work in a cheap
cabaret to save herself from starva-
ton. She attracts the attention of the
leader of n of the most dangerous
gangs in the city and he constitutes
himself as her protector. This rouses
the jealousy of another woman and
the girl becomes the center of a mael-
strom of unbridled passions. The out
come of it all is presented in a manner
that is, to say the least, surprising.
