imagine, would be what the

What a wealth of memories it

Came From Paris

Getting the painting to the u.
S A. presented quite a problem
1 am told that the $4,000 square
feet of canvas was wrapped on a
monster spool with the painted sur
face protected by special velour
and cotton padding. 1t was too
big to get into the hold of the
liner Paris and so it came to
America on the deck of the
steamer. The caravan which
brought it to Washington on
motor trucks was given a special
right of way from New York.
Fifteen years ago I saw a por-
ton of the Maryland country
side turned from sprawling land
scape into bustling cantonment
for squads right and reveille. Last
night I saw on canvas the men
and women who inspired this ma
tional activity. whose names and
deeds emerged to survive for the
ages. Pantheon de la Guerre is
well worth your time as a re-
minder of great days that are
gone.

Before directing films, Selwyn
was a playwright, stage star,
and a producer in New York. He
speaks, therefore, from the per
spective of one who knows drama
and it's requirements. Says Sci
Wyn:
"Pick up your daily news
paper and scan the first page.
1t teens with drama-n0t one
drama, but several dramas.
Each one of them would make
gripping film play.
Through reading newspapers,
the public has great drama
brought right into its own
home. 1t becomes Injured to
the things which once would
have held it SpeIlbOund in a
screen play.
SURPASS PRESS
"TIurder, robbery, intrigueS of
all kinds have become common
place through continual repeti-
ton in the press. Ten years
ago the things would have
caused civic upheavalS, today
they are read with cOmplacence.
Today most of the gripping and
tragic thingS-thc life dreams
are reIegated to the inside
pages.
"The result is that film
studios have a greater problem
in pr Ividing new thrills and
entertainment for the public.
We have to top the newspa-
pers, which have the advantage
of freedom from censorship re-
strictiOns. That is a terrific
task.
ALL-STAR CAST
THAT is why we produce
pictures like 'SkyScraper Souls
Instead of taking a single
drama of an individual, we
have taken he drama Of thou
sands of persons and united
them through the background,
which in this case is a New
York skyscraper. We show bits
of the incidents in the lives of
these 'skyScraper souls then
unite them in one grand cata-
clySm. 1t is, in a way, like
taking all the thrilling stories
from a newspaper and merging
them"

Smaller Group

To me the most marvellous
feature of Pantheon de la Guerre
is the illusion of a third dimen-
sion or appearance of depth which
the artisans have contrived to
create. You view this best in the
grouped pictures of Marshal Jof-
fire. Petain, Foch and other French
immortals standing underneath
the winged victory. The sad
lesson of the war is most force
fully impressed with the lone
figure of a mother at the blvouac
of the dead.
Don't overlook or scorn the col
lection of oil paintings in the
outer lobby. They represent the
most complete and priceless gal
lery of individual war canvaSses
in the world. In fact, it would
cost you more to acquire them
for your private ownership than
would the tremendous panorama
circling the main walls. There
are 1858 of these oils from the
greatest of contemporary artists.

Owned a Saloon

Owned a Saloon
The old man was the owner
of one OF the most popular
saloons ir the neighborhood.
Which was just as we'll, because
it would have taken the COM
bined products of several dis
tilleries to satisfy the elder
Smiths craving for the fluid
that paralyZeS. He was that
kind of stew.
Thus, as Bill grew older, he
became product of an environ
ment that even a pig wouldn't
envy. His father felt just
little stronger with each drink
and, when he was generously
plastered, his passion was to
slug little Bill, the youngest of
the family, and work right on
up to the mother.
Mama, too. had learned to
like the cup that jeers. 1t
wasn't her fault in the begin
ming, 1 suppose, but she wasn't
strong enough to lead her hus-
band out of the rough. So she
took the next best step, and
went in with him.
The end was inevitable. Like
love, whisky is something you
can fight for only so long. On
pops last adventure among the
pink elephants and the red
goats, they brought him home
dead. And just two weeks later,
his widow followed in whatever
direction he had taken.
Quart Is Limit
Well forget the rest of the
children in this story and con-
centrate on Bill Smith. What
happens to such kid as that?
He was not a fool by any man.
ner of means, and he had been
presented with q horrible ex-
ample of the havoc that comes
of excessive drinking. He had
seen everything. and he under.
stood. So he did what, to his
mind, was the only logical
thing.
What's that? You think he
took pledge and never touched
a drop of liquor as long as he
lived? Don't be silly. He set
out Immediately to see if he
couldn't break some of his late
fathers records.
I'll have to admit at this
point that Bill didn't do a bad
Job in the attempt. If pop had
been a champion in knocking
his liver for a loop, his boy
was a fine runnerup. With
the coming of our beloved pro
hibition law. Bill kept the old
saloon running full blast. The
money rolled in, but like his
father, Bill couldn't hold very
much of 1t. He was his own
best customer.
Along came Pauline and, for
the first time in years, Bill
began to limit himself to a
quart a day. She was a cute
kid with big eyes, and she
made the young mans heart
pound whenever he was with
her. This was all new to hlm
because he had always believed
that brandy was the only tnlng
that could do that to his heart.
Marries Pauline
In due time Bill observed an
old custom that has been fading
rapidly of recent years. He
asked Pauline to marry him.
The girl gave him the old, shy
YES. They fell into each
others arms, and all was right
with the world. For the time
being, of course.
The time lasted fairly long
for such a bird as Bill. Within
a year there was baby. With
in two years there was another.
And then. as the kids began to
grow, Bill turned into an exact
duplicate of his fascinating
daddy. He would take a few
pokes at the children, hand his
wife a delightful slap on the
chin and then go to bed a very
happy man indeed.
But Bills wife, luckily enough
