Strand Theatre

It's here. The Great American
picture has arrived. It's been long
time coming but it opens today at
the Strand theatre for a limited
engagement of three days.
The picture is Cardigan" the
story Of the famous novel by Robert
w. Chambers, the great American
author. This pictude has created
wide spread talk among those who
are in sympathy with the Better
Films Movement and who also are
in favor of clean subjects to be
shown ON the motion picture screens
OF the country.
Cardigan" is truly a wonderful
historical play, but tells a heart
throbbing romance love story which
threads its way through the outbreak
of the Revolutionary War. 1t is
the first big American historical pic
ture, 100 per cent American, to be
made on American soil and is said
to more than equal any other big
picture ever shown in this country.
The picture covers the high spots
In the Revolution, especially during
the early period, when world history
was being written with the blood OF
our forefathers. The film Is not
being presented with any patriotic
strings attached. 1t attempts to ac-
curate1y depict a phase of American
history in an attempt to lift the
motion picture out of the ordinary,
sortiid field into which most pictures
have dropped. 1t shows the Arneri-
can Patriots such as John Hancock,
Patrick Henry and depicts with act
ua1 reality the midnight ride OF Pa u
Revere, attendant with every detail
of that word famous incident. The
picture was filmed on the historic
spots we all know so well and every
historical fact has been brought out

THEATRES
At the Ditn1as

what Is the hereafter?
Do our loved ones watch over us
and aid in guiding us along the path
of life?
When we feel the urge to perform
some deed against our wishes, Is it
the prompting of some loved one
that goads us on?
That, and many other questions
arise after witnessing the screening
production, my Friend the Devil"
which opens a three days engage
The photoplay brings to light the
fact Georges Ohnet, famous French
author, many years ago, when he
wrote the celebrated moved doctor
Ranbeau,' from which the motion
picture was adapted, possessed some
of the beliefs of A. Conan Doyle,
who has spent number OF years
delving into the mysteries Of the
spirit world.
On next Thursday the Ditnas the
atre is bring to local audiences one
of the best pictures of the current
season. 1t is the latest William Fox
production. According to advance
reports the picture deals with life III
the greater city and carries a Won
,derful lesson.
= Wherever the production has been
shown it has been acclaimed by crit
les as one of the great pictures of
the day. The story is divided into
two parts. The first deals with the
life of a boy born in the East Side
of New York, and the other with a
man from the better section Of the
metropolis. The experiences ofI
both sides of life are wildly portray

Light Without Heat.

One Of the things which inventors
would like much to accomplish Is the
production of light without heat. Ma
ture proves by the example Of the
FREELY and the glowworm that the
thing can be done. Experiments made
abroad have shown what had long
been believed without direct measure
ment OF the temperature that the light
radiated from a Geissler tube when
an electric current passes through 1t,
is accompanied by very little heat.
This accords with the View that we
must look to electricity for solu-
