would seem grotesque to see a man
posted by q busy corner in the heart

consistency. Lloyd would meet this
by having the man carrying out

banks supreme achievement, The
Three Musketeers."
The screen version of the famous
Alexandra Dumas classic of roman
tic adventure stands as the fore
most photodramatic production ever
made N this country ana in its
preparation enlisted the undivided
effort of a long list of distinguished
authors, directors, art directors,
actors and experts in research. The
result is that The Three Muske-
teers'' ranks as the peerless exam
pie of American artistry on the sill
yer sheet.
The adventures of D'Artagnan af-
ford Fairbanks a perfect medium
for the display of those picturesque
qualities that have made him the
most popular male star in pictures.
Added to the agility, the untiring
physical effort and the unabated
vigor of the Fairbanks impersona-
ton is a quality of genuine dramatic
power that transcends anything this
star has ever revealed in his earlier
vehicles. Not only does the ngure
OF D'Artagnan possess exceptional
appeal, but in the action of this
stirring drama this intrepid swash-
buckler Is surrounded by characters
of such Importance that a support
ing cast of unusual size and ability
Is an essential. Among those Of
prominence in Fairbanks ensemble
are Mary -MacLaren, Eugene Pal
lette and scores more Of stellar dis
tinction, including Nigel de Brulier,
Marguerite De la Motto and George
Siegmann.

CASTOR Glass Shops
Real Aptitude for
Rural Diplomacy

One Of the most rarely beautiful
scenes in Gods Crucible," which
opens a weeks engagement at the
Strand Theater today. shows the
harvesting of acre upon acre of
grain by a gang Of foreigners, who
have rallied to the support of Ivan
Kalmar, their friend and country
man. A very interesting little
story is connected with this Incl
dent in the picture.
1t seems that the scenes were
taken on the ranch of zone of the
most prominent men Of Winnipeg,
Canada, who, due to certain labor
conditions, was unable to procure
any help in harvesting his crop of
grain.
CASTOR Glass went to Director
MacRae and told him that he
thought he might be able to help
him out of his quandary.
How" asked Mr.. MacRae.
Well" said Mr.. Glass, II have
learned that these farm hands are
Poles. and, fortunately. 1 know a
great deal about their country and
speak their language fiuently. Sup
pose go to them and tell them
that I am a native-born Pole and
that the finishing OF this picture
means a very great deal TO me.
Don't. You think that they would
rally to the support OF one Of their
countrymen7" .....
And that 10 exactly what Mr..
Glass did and the results achieved
were remarkable. d..

De Mile Fed Actors
-Four Separate Times
During One Dinner

In william de Miles new Para
mount picture, Miss Lulu Bett,"
which opens a weeks engagement
at Moore's Rialto Theater today,
there is a dinner scene which re-
Quires that the various members
OF the cast actually eat the food.
1t was lunch time and everyone
was hungry. The scene was taken
and the various players ate with
avidity. But Mr.. de Mile decreed
that the scene be refined because
something wasn't right. More food
was brought on and the actors ate
with notiCeably less appetite. still
they did fairly well.
Again something went amiss and
they had to do il over.
BY this time those who had eaten
most heartily at the FIRST take"
began to show signs of distress,
but they had to eat and appear to
enjoy 1t.
BY the time this scene had been
retaken about four times the
actors were hardly able to swallow
a mouthful and some refused to
move from their chairs for several
minutes.

The usual rate OF exposing and OF
projecting motion picture hlm Is
sixteen frames q second. The slow
motion pictures now familiar on the
screen are made by speeding up the
camera so that It will take pictures
at a faster rate. Charles p. WatsOn's
Monograph camera, one OF the best
known high-speed machines, makes
exposures at the rate OF 100 q sec
ond, IL is said. which means that
when a print OF the film thus eN-
posed Is projected at the usual rate
Of sixteen frames a second, action
that actually consumed one second.
and was photographed in 16o sepG-
rate pictures, IL shown on the screen
in ten seconds, or at one-tenth its
actual speed. By this means It is
analysed the slow-motion pictures
reveal many details OF the action
which q person watching II in real
life would miss.
OF course, the greater the speed
with which pictures are taken, the
more detailed the analysis, so those
using high-speed cameras are al
ways trying to- increase their rates
OF exposure. For example, Mr. Wat
son reported some time ago that he
had made his camera take as many
as 800 pictures a second. which, con-
sidering the difdculties involved
seemed almost the maximum speed
attainable.
These DIFFICULTIES put a limit upon
tho rate OF exposure with the usual
