LETTER TO EDITOR
Idcrman Dcuw Proposes Draft OF
MiIk Ordinance In Place OF One
Submitted BY Rotary Club.
Annapolis, Md.

March 81, 1922.
20 INC Editor OF The EUenin6 Capital
Annapolis, Nd.
Dear Sir:
am enclosing a draft of a milk
ordinance which | propose to offer in
place of the one submitted by the
Rotary Club. My reasons for so do
ing are: 1913
First: / think the Ordinance sub
nitted by the Rotary Club too cum
bersome and complicated for present
conditions in this city,
Second: If the Rotary Clubs Or
finance is adopted it cannot be en-
forced o meet its own provisions
without a good deal of expense.
Third: If license fee is charged,
based on the foresoen expenses of the
proposed ordinance and the present
number Of dairies furnishing milk to
annapolis, a reduction in the dairies
gill result in material decrease in
revenue without material decrease in
expense.
Fourth: From all l have been able
o learn there is no real demand for
ny milk ordinance by the citizens
Annapolis. but acting on the prin-
iple that it is the duty OF the City
ouncil 10 protect the health of the
itizens whether they demand it. or
OF and owing to. the fact that the
uest.on of an ordinance has lecn
gitated. it might lie harmful if the
airy interests were given to under
tand that they are to have no super
-ision | framed the enclosed with
he intent that Annapolis receive
ONE protection without appreciable
ost. giving the question of the dan
.er of increasing the price, or pre-
enting the reduction of price in the
uture, the greatest consideration.
While it is true that the City Coun-
ii should make honest effort to pro-
ect the health of our citizens, it is
lso true that it is their duty to make
honest effort to protect their pocket
ooks. Imay. of course, be mistaken
ut feel that the. passage of the or
finance proposed will either result
an advance in the price of the
so-callod lower grades of milk, or
prevent n reduction in price of all
trades to accompany the fall in stock
God and labor. The fact that the
)airymen's Committee requested
ears delay in the taking effect of
he ordinance so that they could
prepare to comply with its provis
ons. strengthens my belief in this
regard.
/ submit my proposed ordinance for
What the Council may think it worth.
am not welded to this or any other
ordinance but l do wish TO see that
he city does not pass any ordinance
which will either not be enforced or
which will add expense to our citi-
ems. either ty increased costs of
milk or otherwise. will thank you
% publish it and, possibly. some
IDEAS may come from the various pro-
rosals which will accrue 10 the ben
eft of the city, which is what we
are all after.

THE PENALTY OF GREATNESS

The time-honored royal lament
that the head that wears a crown
lies uneasy finds no application
in President Harding's regret
that his White House job makes
it hard for him to be a human
being.
Crown-adorned heads, particu
larly in ancient days, were ex-
posed to shifting winds of adver
sity which might at any time gath
or enough force to blow off crown
head and all. There was no tel
ling when an upstart OF an usurp.
or might arise either within tho
gates of the Kingdom or from the
outside to demand the crown.
And if the .bejeweled headgear
wasn't readily surrendered, it was
almost inevitable that either the
king or the usurper should pay
with his head for the delay. In
fact great share of the worlds
history is little more than ser
ial story of lost heads.
But President Harding's plight
comes from good motives on the
part of those who make it hard
for him to be both a president
and an ordinary human being.
For untold ages the sons of men
have exalted those of their fell
lowmcn who attained high rank
in the councils of the tribe.
Whether such high place was
won and held by accident of
birth, by force of arms or by pop
ular choice has never mattered
much. Chicftain or king or presi-
dent, mankind has ever set its
leaders apart. 1t does not like
to think these men only human
after all.
In his home town as private
citizen Warren is one of the boys
just as much j boy as he wants
to be. The thump on the back
with which his friends greet him,
the good-natured laughter if the
Joke should be ON him, these are
evidences that as citizen he has
not been set apart. He may APP
pear i'll his shirt sleeves if he
likes, or sun himself in his slip
pers on the front porch if he feels
so inclined. Neither his actions
nor saying occasion comment
other than that made about other
citizens.
With Warren c. Harding.
however. as president of the
United States, the case is quite
different. Here the top hat and
the distinguished air must be in
evidence. Not that Americans
think citizen could change his
habits of life merely because he
got majority of the votes when
he ran for the presidency. No
one thinks about it at all. But
there is associated with the
presidential office a certain
amount of formality, and anyone
to whom this honor comes must
bear the burden OF formality.
For even democracy does still set
its leaders apart. They must be
prepared to pay the penalty
which popularity has always ex-
acted-not that they are better
than anybody else, but just some
what different.

POLA NEGRI SEEN
IN FIFTH PICTURE
AT STRAND TO-DAY

Pola Neg.i who opens a weeks
engagement at the Strand today IN
the film version of The Red Pea
cock" is not only one OF the most
talented actresses OF the screen,
but she 10 beautiful and magnetic
to an extraordinary degree. She is
of Polish birth and by tempera-
ment and education, one OF the
greatest and most artistic expo
nents Of the dramatic art in the
world. F~
Her first great success as q screen
artist, was her appearance in the
role Of Madame DuBarry, the ia
vorite of/Louis XIV, IN the picture
production of Passion" which
swept the country last season and
which Is still attracting attention
wherever the screen Is known.
Then followed Gypsy Blood" a
new and tremendously powerful
version Of Carmen" In which Miss
Negri displayed dramatic talents Of
the highest order-an expression OF
art vastly different from that she
displayed as the favorite of the
dissolute French king. In due
course, came THE Last Payment"
q Paramount picture. in which he-
dramatic powers are displayed at
their best. In each of these the
actress scored q personal triumph.
In her latest Paramount picture,
The Red Peacock" Miss Negri has

Griffith Excels Himself
In Picking "Orphans" Cast
Brings the Gish Sisters Together For First
Time on Screen Since Producer
Made Civil War Picture.

I'd. W. Grinith has an uncanny
sense of values in casting his pic
lures" said a spectator at a show
ing. of orphans of the Storm" the
spectacle drama which has its
Washington premier at Moore's
Rialto Theater today. In this pic-
ture he has put finer edge on
his selections than he has ever done
before.
Even though D. w. Griffith has
scenically outdone himself in this
screen epic. as reviewers proclaim,
the living factors in the wonder
composition must be drawn both
exquisitely and forcefully to inter-
pref pulsing drama. However, as
one critic expresses 1t, Griffith has
chosen a cast, and q great one.
In the first place, the heroines-.
the blind Louise and her sister,
the guardian, Henriette-are played
by the Gishes. Lillian. of Broken
Blossoms" and way Down East
triumphs, is Henriette. And Dor
othy is Louise, remarkable as
siGnment in versatility, since Dor
othy won her fame in comedy roles,
and the blind orphan is the focus
OF unutterable pathos. This is the
first time the two Gish sisters have
been together in one film since
The Birth of a Nation"
Perhaps the next most brilliant
choice of players is that of Joseph
Schildkraut as Chevalier de Vau-
dry, the true admirer of Henriette,
and a noble hearted aristocrat.

ARitd Stewart IN SHer Mad Bargain"
Seldom has entertainment been
lavished with so prodigal a hand in

The foremost attraction will be

The climax to which this extraord-

MR.. GEORGE BEBAN
BRINGS A SCREEN
NOVELTY TO TOWN

The effort to bring novelty to
photoplay exhibition is an effort
that goes forward day and night on
the part of those charged with the
business of making and presenting
pictures for the 100, 100000 million.
of movie-mad Americans.
1t has remained for George Be-
ban. the stage and screen star, how
ever. to come forward with q pro-
lection novelty that will parallel.
in many respects. the original at
traction the movies exercised
through their mere movement. Be-
ban. in fact. is the originator of a
new dramatic form, which utilities,
in the presentation of a dramatic
story. not only the screen but the
stage as well. without a percepti-
BILE break in the continuity Of the
story that he thus reveals.
THE Sign Of the Rose" is the title
of the story that Mr.. Beban is thus
revealing to America in this novel
form and while the presentation of
certain portion of this story as a
stage play necessarily precludes the
Simultaneous appearance of the
story in many places at the same
time, II affords, nevertheless, the
appreciable innovation OF seeing a
company of actors transformed In
twinkling from the screen to the
stage and then back again, twenty
Ave minutes later.
This Is the unusual element in
The Sign of the Rose" which will
present Mr.. Beban and his company
both in person and in the picture
at Loew's Columbia Theater for one
week, beginning this afternoon at
8 o'clock. The story begins as a
screen production and continues in
that form up to the point where the
action begins to approach a tense
climatic episode. At this point, the
lights quietly die down, the screen
Is whisked away in a twinkling aud
as the lights suddenly go on, the
entire scene, with the Identical ac-
tors in the flesh. is seen apparently
transplanted entirely to the stage.
For twenty-five minutes Mr.. Be'
ban and his company carry the
second stage of the story forward,
in orthodox and accepted stage
form. with dialogue, movement and
all other elements thereunto apper-
tanning. As the stage players car
ry the story through to its tense
and brilliant climax. the lights
suddenly dim of again and almost
imperceptibly, the stage scene fades
away, the screen suddenly appears
from nowhere and before one can
properly understand what has hap
pened. the pictures are carrying
The Sign of the Rose" through to
its appealing and felicitous conclu-
sion.
The Washington herald., 1922-03-26

well as the means OF bringing to
the supplemented fellow a little
fortune that means the end of his
days Of toll and hardship. ..
The picture carries forward the
story of The Sign of the Rose" to
a point where it approaches the
most tense and thrilling episode OF
the action. At this point, by the
wizardry of theater lighting, the
screen is suddenly whisked from
sight and the lights. going up. re-
veal the same scene on the stage
with the same characters in real
life, carrying on the story. For
twenty-five minutes the story con-
tinues in its stage form and then,
by the same electric wizardrV, the
lights fade OF from the stage scene
and the STORY merges once again
into a photoplay, continuing thus
to the finish.
The Sign of the Rose" will be
seen at the Columbia but one week;
beginning today. Mr.. Beban and
his fellow-players will, appear in
the stage version of the story at
three de luxe performances daily, at
g. and 9:15 p. m.
