shrewd precaution so to fix the con-

they are not only recouped for the
price of the prize but obtain lot OF

the unfortunately fortunate author.
He finds that he has reduced

ways. none of them dishonest, in
which the author can be led to pay
for his prize.
Then. having bound himself hand
and foot, he comes around to the
Authors League to be liberated or
avenged. For that reason the officers
of the league had come to look upon
prize contests arranged by and for
publishers as pest. That is why
most Of our leading authors regard
them merely as means of culling
the market and obtaining wide pub
licity at small expense.

all right. Then, of course, there are
the annual Pulitzer prizes, awarded
by Columbia University for various
kinds of writing. They have been
invariably acceptable and are al
ready becoming traditional.
Now with respect to prize contests
arranged by publishers it must be
stated frankly that many OF our ex-
perienced authors have come to re
gard them with the cynical attitude
of an old black duck which has been
shot at before. He knows decoys

PHOTOGRAPHY
 RECORDS D AN CE IN
 VIOLA DANA PICTURE

Slow molten photography has been applied to certain scenes of Viola Dana's new Metro picture, Glass Houses" now showing at Eagle thea tre today ana Monday.
 The action SO photographed is that of a Russian dance the star does. According to the director the produc- ton. Harry Beaumont. this was the cnly satifactory mechanical recourse, for Miss Dana's movements during the number are so rapid that the resula- ton camera fails to record them suit ably.
 So far as Is known this is the first time in the history of the screen that this device has been utilized in the straight narrative of a story in motion pictures In Douglas Fairbanks pic ture the slow motion lens was brought into play to give the desperate strain ing sensation of a man in q nightmare, but this was vision scene. The re- suits in "Glass Houses" have been pointed out as one of the chief req sons for the pictures success. Miss Dana, whose dancing has been com pared to that of Pavlowa, is given Tn this picture to display this phase of her talent.

With announcement that Fine Feathers" Metro production, will be snown at the Eagle theatre Tuesday and Wednesday and Central theatre Thursday, local picturegoers may con Cratulate themselves on the opportun- ity afforded them of beholding pic ture translation of the great play of the same name by Eugene Walter.

ArlIE RAIT.n

Maurice Tourneur's latest Para mount production, "The Bait, will be the featufe attraction at the Eagle theatre Friday and Saturday, and Central theatre next Sunday. Hope Hampton, the well known Texas screen beauty, plays the leading role.
 "The Bait" is described as a pleas ing combination of romance, thrills, and mystery, with the usual colorful Tourneur production methods in evl' dence. The story centers around a pretty shop girl, who, singled out by a master-croolI as his pawn in a game to capture and later blackmail a young millionaire, is framed by the crook and then rescued by him while on her way to jail. Out of gratitude, she becomes an innocent prey to his schemes and learns the ltruth only when it seems to be too late. But, after a thrilling experience, matters turn out happily.
 Besides Miss Hampton, the cast ot "The Bait" includes Harry Wood ward, Jack Mcdonald, Joe Singleton, and James Gordon, John Gilbert wrote the scenario.

FAMOUS NOVEL MADE
 BASIS FOR EXCITING
 PHOTOPLAY FEATURE

One of the most interesting scenes in Gods Crucible," the picturiza- tion of Ralph Connor's novel, The Foreigner" which is released, be- meath the Hodkinson banner, takes place in a cave where the hero-ad- mirably played by Gaston Glass-dis- covers coal and thereby attains to the financial independence which makes it possible for him to sue for the hand of the beautiful Gladys Coburn. This scene is exactly as the author described it when he wrote the story and is an absolutely true version of the exact way in which
 coal was discovered in the famous anthracite mines in Canada.
 When the scene was being filmed in fact when all the mine scenes were being filmed,-the officials of the company who were desirous of helping to the limit of their powers, showed their anxiety to cooperate by declaring a half holiday in the mine so that Director MacRae and his com pany of players could work unhinder- ed. They went even further by offer ing the services of the miuers em- ployed who entered into the spirit of the thing so admirably that the scenes in Gods Crucible" which show the coal mine in full blast are marvels of technical perfection.
