POLI'S

As long as the human heart has the power to feel, to love, to suffer, to triumph, '1The Song of Berna- dette" will be remembered as Q great motion picture, wondrously conceived and enthrallingly unfold ed. It is beyond all question the fulfillment of all you had hoped it would be beyond all compa. rison in its emotional sweep and power beyond all conception in the miraculous spell 1t cast over al! who saw 1t last night at the Loews' Poli theater, where 1t had its pre- miere. Accolades will be bestowed -and with a lavish hand-uPon goth Century Fox for the remark able manner in which 1t has br1dged the transition from the novel to the screen. Great and universally be- loved as was Franz Werfers story of "Bernadette" between book cov- CTS, 1t is infinitely greater and more compelling as 8 motion picture. onl ythe highest praise will suffice for the director, Henry King, and the producer, William Perlberg. into whose hands the destiny of bring ing the novel to the screen was en- trusted. Each, in his respective ca" pacity, records the outstanding achievement of his career. All cre- dit is due, too, to George Seaton for his screen play, which faithfully follows the pattern of Werfers story. Tn the title role of the Maid of Lourdes, Jennifer Jones makes the most suspicious debut in Holly wood history. Here is 8 star--and one who has flared into being with a brilliance that shines with the mark of greatness. A bow to Da- yid O. Selmick for her discovery! Matching Jennifer Jones' perform ance are the featured members Of the cast: William Eythe, Charles Bickford, Vincent Price, Lee J. Cobb and Gladys Cooper. Others In i'm" portant roles are well-nigh flaw less. From the moment when Der nadette Soubirous," young daughter of an impoverished family, sees the vision of "The Beautiful Lady," ''The Song of Bernadette" Is 8 rare experience. Bernadette's faith is from her heart. LourdeS Seettes with excitement over repost of the yision-the authorities grow in- creasingly concerned, fearing the effect on the people-but Berna- dette holds steadfast. Dramatic moments in the film are many: Bernadette is hailed into court and asked to deny she saw a vision. She disarmingly replies, How can l deny 1t, when I did see it?";; The grotto is ordered closed, as Q final | measure. ..
 Bernadette. impelled by 6 call from "The Lady," goes to the fence built to keep the townspeople away and falls to her knees; The young son of the Emperor Napoleon III, lies dying-a drink of water from the spring which has miraculously burst forth at the grotto revives him, and the grotto is ordered re- opened. Bernadette is told by Peyramale that she must accept her destiny that ''The Lady" had chos- en her, and that she must choose 'sThe Lady," '"The Song of Berna- dette" is motion picture so deep in its understanding, 50 powerful in it's emotional sweep, that for one ina- mortal moment you touch the
 the final fulfillment of every thing you are or ever hope to be.
 nn this ssme hig program there will be selected short subjects and latest News of the day.

outstanding women among the plan llers who numbered priests, poets, dreamers, acknowledged crackpots, butchers, bakers, school teachers and dressmakers.
 Among the women planners, the names of Baroness Bertha von Stuttner and Mime. Rosika Schwim- mer stand out. Although Mime Schwimmer devoted her life. since girlhood, to world peace, the baron. ess became a planner almost by ac- cident. Her novel Ground Arms" written about the time of the Boer War, inspired Alfred Nobel to es- tablish the peace prize.
 Mrs. Rohde'S Plan
 Ruth Bryan Owen Rohe worked out a plan for stretching and ex- banding the United States consti- tuition to cover the world. She felt that If our federal structure were just let out at the seams it could be made big enough to it the world
 Miss Wynner and Miss Lloyd found, in their research, that one of the incest things about some world plans-from l1ssu and women was that they never had a chance to be tried. The authors are glad the world just skipped the plan of a Frenchman named Gordon who wanted Latin made the official, uni- versal language. Pierre Dubosi who planned like mad in 1906, wanted the Pope for world president. A German planner thought the worlds troubles would be over if nobody were allowed to make paper money.
