titled thrilling Women" and the
name of the director is associated
! with 1t in several capacities in addi-
ton to that of producer. This photo
play is based on an original story
by Mr.. Ingram and it was he who
provided the screen adaptation. It
comes to the Strand Theatre today.
Those who saw drifting Women"
during its engagement at the Aston
Theatre in New York were impress
ed with the success of the versatile
director when working in an unusual
genre. His new p~hotoplay is unlike
anything he has done; yet it COM
bines the elements of excellence that
nave stamped him as one of the
hopefuls of the screen. 1t has the
dramatic thrill of THE Four Horse
men," the romantic beauty of THE
Prisoner of Zenda," and the suspense

too, what each of these p~hotoplays
had: remarkable attention to details
supreme good taste and intelligence,
and an uncanny gift for pungent
characterization.

Mad Love- a Pola Negri picture
released by Goldwyn Pictures Cor
poration, is the attraction at the
Ditmas today. tomorrow and Satur-
day. Every picturegoer who has
seen Negri in Passion" Gypsy
Blood" zone Arabian Night" or any
other of her pictures, will want to
see Mad Love-" 1t is the type OF
picture to which this great Polish
actress has accustomed her admirers
and they will not be disappointed In
her new role. 1t is the opinion OF
the star and OF the Goldwyn organ
ization that Mad Love" ranks with
Passion in her film achievements.
The star plays the part of a beau
tiful and notorious woman who has
discarded a lover when he ceases
to attract her. She overhears his
brother cursing all womankind for
her own treatment of his brother.
She falls genuinely in love with the
brother and the climax of the picture
sweeps all three into a turmoil OF
love, hatred and passion. Mile,
Negri commands all of this fury OF
unleashed passions as the captain oil
a steamship commands his vessel in
a great gale at sea. Indeed, Mao
Love-" is a sort of emotional lorna

permission to review the bulletin. Many of the larger colleges and uni versailles are also allowing work of this kind as material for the degree of Master of Arts.
 It is the plan of Mrs Engstfeld to keep this bulletin well up to date. At the recent meeting of the Alabama writers in Montevallo the publication was endorsed by them and those present offered to keep Mrs. Engst- field informed in regard to future publications of their own, so that new editions of the bulletin might be issued from time to time.
 Quite number of the writers of the state have sent autographed copies of cAeir works for the coilec- ton of Alabama authors in the public library, and the section devoted to this work is rapidly growing. The w. B. Leedy family has contributed the history and dictionary of Ala bama in four handsomely bound volumes, and several other volumes by Alabamians, many of which are out of print. Autographed copies or her stories were also recently re- ceived from Miss Maude Lindsay and Miss Martha Young. 1t Is hoped by Mrs. Engstfeld that every author in the state will send autographed copies of her work for this section in the Birmingham public library.
 This bulletin was compiled from researches through American litera- ture. southern literature, Alabama histories, Who's Who, and Women's Why's Who, with the cooperation of

 It is very gratifying to Alabamiahs to know that in this bibliography there are names that are nationally famous, as that of Dr. Smith of the University of Alabama of highest rank as geologist, Samuel Mintern Peck, Col.

In this way my list grew and 1t came to an idea, the idea of bibliography of Alabama authors, a new edition to be published each year to keep 1t up to date"
 Thus in her own words Mrs. Engst- field, native Alabamian, resident of Birmingham, trained librarian and member of Howard college faculty tells the beginning of her recent publication The Bibliography of Alabama Authors"
 ITO every student of literature, to every club or society, making a study of literature this publication of the University of Alabama, and the fact that all the copies of the first edition, which was published in March, 1923, were sold readily Is proof that many are finding it so.
 This bibliography Is published as 8 Howard college bulletin, under the editorial supervision of pr. John c. Dawson, president of the college. It is significant fact that Howard is the only college In Alabama that issues bulletins as contributions to literature, and that Norh Carolina and Texas have the only other colleges in the south that do so.
