Colorful Scenes
IN o7anda"

One OF the most striking scenes
In "Yolanda." in which Marion
Davies is scheduled to appear soon
at the Strand. represents the rival
armies Of France and Burgundy
drawn up in battle array on the op.
posite banks OF the Meuse
Produced at an enormous cost Of
time and money, 1t is one Of the most
spectacular scenes ever shown in the
films. 1t depicts thousands OF
knights with the sun shining on their
bright arnor and the plumes Of their
helmets nodding in the breeze, The
elaborate heralds and the host OF
men-at.arms forming the background
with their glittering spears and bril-.
liant banners OF France and Bur.
gundy. makes particularly effective
picture.
Nearly 5000 actors and horses were
used in this scene. Every costume
Is an exact reproduction Of the livery
worn by the soldiers Of France and
Burgundy at that period. The an.
Gent armor came from some of the
most f5nUtfs collections Of Europe.
Nearly 100000 was spent for cos
tunes alone, and experts worked for
months in order to reproduce the
correct atmosphere Of rhese great
days Of history when France and
Burgundy we're combating for the
political domination Of tho continent.

ratified and shook with their force
The wind, which had gone down S,
suddenly, sprang up again, buffetinl
the house as it rushed by with the
storm.
AS the night wore on the storm, in
stead of spending itself quickly as
Grant had expected, continued I'M
abated, but his nervous tension grad
ually relaxed and when at length
Wilson was awakened by an excep-
tionally loud clap of thunder he took
the boy in his arms and soothed his
little fears as mother might have
done. They sat for a long while n a
big chair in the living room, and ex-
changed such condolences as a man
may with a child of five. After the
lad had dropped back into sleep Grant
still sat with him in his arms, think
ing.
And what he thought was this: He
was long while framing the exact
thought; he tried to beat 1t back in
a dozen ways, but It circled around
him, gradually closed in upon him and
forced its acceptance. "Linder called
me fool, and he was right. He might
have called ME a coward, and again
he would have been right. Under was
right"
Some way 1t seemed easy to reach
that conclusion while this little sleep
ing form lay in his arms. Now was
the time to do something that would
cost; to lay his hand upon the prize
and then relinquish it--for the sake
of Wilson Transley
and by God I'll do itl' he ex.
claimed springlng to his feet. He car
ried the child back to his bed, and
then turned again to watch the storm
through the windows 1t seemed to
be subsldlng; the lightning. although
still almost continuous, was not so
near.

livesl" he thought. That boy; in
some strange way he has been the
means Of bringing me to see things as
they are-which not even Under could
do. The mind has to be fertilized for
the thought. or 1t can't think it. He !
brought the necessary influence to |
bear. II was like the night at MUIR |

Unconventional

He took his ticket leisurely at the
booking office of a suburban railway
station, but, on hearing the train APP
preaching, made more haste than
speed to the platform. He was going
well until, nearly at the top of the
steps leading to the platform, some
thing or other caused his foot to slip.
His silk hat had wabbled onto his
brow, his bag and umbrella betook
themselves one to the right and one to
the left, but he manfully regained
these possessions in grasp-all sort Of
fashion while on his knees.
Then he looked up at the official at
the gate and inquired: as this the way
to go to the train?"
