PhOtoplay

The fong-awaited Rex Ingram produc-
ton OF s-The -Four Horsernen Of the Apo
calpse'' is coming TO the Davis theatre
starting Sunday. January 29th and con-
tinues for four days. This is the picturs
that cost Metro 100000 TO make, and
from all accounts the $1.0oosoo0 was well
spent, as critics agree that an other ef-
forts at production on a grand scale have
been surpassed and record runs have been
fnads in New York, Chicago, Boston
Pittsburgh. Detroit, Los Angeles and 9th
er cities where the Picture has been prev
lousy shown.
/ Fifty principals and $500 extras wers

an e4stire chateau were erected TO he de-
stroyed under the artillery bombardnnt
of the German invaders, and more than
$4,000 tons OF masonry, steel lumber
and furniture were used in creating hack
grounds that are said to reproduce with
absolute hoeiity the shifting panorama
of the story.
The appeal Of the story itself has ei-
ready been proved through the success
Of the novel by Vicente Blasco Hanez.
upon which the photodrama is founded
It's millions, but millions more wiz Froa-

DECKER OUT OF NAVY
OVER REDUCTION IN RANK

Tauuorary-<Rear Admiral Benton c.
Decker, o s. N, for eight months in
command of the New London naval re-
serve district during. the war, and well
known socially, has resigned from the
navy because he claims an injustice was
shown him recently when the navy de-
partn1ent reduced him to his former rank
of captain. Eight other temporary rear
admirals most of them distinguished for
their. services and all OF them wearing
medals and orders both from this coun-
try and foreign governments, were re-
dueed with Decker and they all are peey-
ed, not only over the departments action
but becausss Immediately after they re-
tired. an announcement was made Of the
of the promotion of four
navy captains, De Steiguer, Phelps, Cole
and Chase. to- be- permanent rear adj,
mifals.
4 One OF the painful effects Of their re-
ltirementi is that captains are always on
three uarersl pay, while the four who
were advanced in their places go ahead
with the enneluments of a rear admiral
for 12e or IA years, and then can retire
with the allowance OF higher rank The
nine rear. admiraIs Of yesterday. so to
speak. will be retired on s4s125a year,
while the men who were their juniors.
now became their superiors. will have
$1,000 during their active service and
then will. retire on $4,000 a year.
|. The episode OF the fortunate YOU'D
and the disappointed nine is attracting
sons attention in congress as well as
in the navy, and there is some prospect
l.of an investigation.
