Majestio THeatre
Douglas Fairbanks will be seen
in the marvelous Arabian Nights
tale, "The Thief of Bagdad," at
the Majestic tomorrow. It was, ac
cording to all accounts the great
good fortune of the screen, that
Douglas Fairbanks came upon this
romantlo love story and that he
undertook to make It Into a photo
play. Moving ' picture critics, in
such cities as "The Thief of Bag
dad" baa been shown, hn,ve been
unanimous In asserting that it Is
the greatest film ever made. When
It la considered that his story de
parts from the afrairs of everyday
life and soars off lato dreamland;
that there has been visualized
and made real the soaring away of
the magic carpet over the house
tops and Into the sky; the winged
horse, wltb the Thief galloping off
to and through the clouds; the
magic rone which the Thief throws
Into the air and climbs Into the
sky, np into all sorts of place it
will bo seen that "The Thle of
Bagdad" la no mere spectacle; no
mere bringing together of crowds
.to appal .the multitude. When a
crowd or' even an army Is desired.
the Thief simply takes a seed from
box, throws it on the ' ground.
and lo! a huge army with banners
springs from the earth. This sort
of thing is the warp and woof of
"The Thief of Bagdad."

GIRL PRODUCER
LONDON, Dec. !2. Elchteen-yenr-old
Marian Wilson made S85,
000 on her production of "The Beg
gar' Opera anil lost" It all, and
more too, on "The British Ballett."
The Income tax got tile gfrl pro
ducer. While money was rolling in
from "The Beggsr's Opera," she
forgot all about the'neome tax and
did not lay any of her money aside.
Instead she put It into a new pro
duction which was not a success
and when the tax collector came
round she faced disaster.
So the ambitious producer went
back to work as an actress. She
danced tor a time In a cabaret at
Nice, then joined up with Hen
Greet's Shakespearin players and
bas been playing all over provin
cial England.
It is her ambition to become a
comedienne. She never wanted to
be a producer, but her father ob
jected to her acting and gave ber
$5,000 to use in producing.
