Moon Of Israel" Haggard's s Nouel
 Al liberty Tonight

Moon of Israel", taken from the famous novel by Sir H. Rider Hag- gard, opens at the Liberty theatre tonight. At it's world premiere at the Roxy Theatre in New York crit IicS were amazed at the immensity Of some of the sets, and questioned their authenticity. Men who have made these things their life study were consulted, together with en- inent members of the Jewish church. The result was that the accuracy of the picture was com mended both in regards to archi- tectral and religious matters.
 This is easily understood when 1t is considered that Sir H. Rider Haggard is the author of the story, and that the picture was made un- der his personal supervision. Those who have read the books by Hag- gard in number, know that there is never any material in his books oAAe~o Ao 11oG ollC 1CoulU O1 pCl experiences or infinite research, and in the Moon of Israeli no trouble was spared to bring the same spirit of reality to the screen.
 Rider Haggard is probably one of the best known authors in the world. His character of Allen Quar- termain is one of the best known.
 Other stories by the same author are King Solomon's Mines, She, 'Ayesha", "The Brethern" "Chil- dren of the Mist, ''The Worlds Desire and Aliens Wife,. Those who have read and gloried in these books will glory in this film, for it is seldom that the same spirit of uplife and realism stays with both story and screen version. Rider Haggard is quoted as saying, T did not know how glorious the romance of Seti and Merapi could be till I saw her burning in the. actual flames. Tn this case the picture has even been able to show me new
