: For Relief Funds

The Burleigh county Red Cross in
its drive for funds to aid in relief
work for the victims of the Japanese
earthquake has gone over the top.
A total of $500 has been raised by
the city and county. A number of
persons sent in their offerings to the
Red Cross headquarters as a result
of the appeals which appeared in The
Tribune. No soliciting was done in
this connection.
Red Cross officials in charge Of the
drive report that they are proud OF
the way in which the people respond
ed in this worthy cause. They said It
was a pleasure to work with the peo-
pie of the city and county, for they
could always be depended upon to
respond.
The employees of the Grand Pacific
hotel alone contributed $3.50 to The
relief fund today when the hat was

is something far out of the beaten
path in motion pictures. The stars
role is that Of fascinating siren
woman, desired of all men who see
her. It is not historical character
as have been most of her screen i'm
presentations of the past, but a mod
crn woman brimful of feminine APP
peal and the charms and graces that
prove irresistible to mere man.
= The story il an original one writ
ten especially to exploit Pola Negrl's
genius in picturing the dollhouse type
of alluring womanhood-a modern
Cleopatra, for there is something in
Pola Negri herself, something of the
dark beauty and the senstous appeal
Of that ancient mistress of the Nile
who was Mark Anthony's undoing.
Then the character of Sappho, which
the actress portrays in MAD Love-
carries the analogy several degrees
further, for Sappho is of that sister
hood to which Cleopatra belonged by
instinct if not by name.
