Hill's Department Store AT THE MOVIES AT SHERRY'S. Mays Role of Indian Prince in Photo play, "The Ruling I'assion." . William E. Shay, who plnys Ran jit Singhi, an Indian prince, 'in tihe William Fox production, "The Ruling Passion," made a study of the secrets of the Hindu mystic before beginning work in the photoplay. Ranjit Singhi is supposed to exert a hypnotic in fluence over women. This picture is at Sherry's. "The part of Ranjit Singhi," says Mr. Shay, "is decidedly at variance with anything else I had ever done. When I was cast for the part I im mediately discerned that I was to have mj hands full if I gave it a proper interpretation. Ranjit Singhi is enveloped in an atmosphere of mystery, but flowing robes alone will not give an actor the slightest semb lance of an llndian mystic. "I decided that I could do justice to the role only by acquiring at least some knowledge of the innermost thoughts of tie real mystic. , I felt it necessary to absorb in some degree his mental attitude toward the un initiated. To this end I sought out a Hindu fakir in New York and studied with him. I did not ask him how to do this or how to do that. That would have availed nothing. The knowledge that I wanted was some thing to be absorbed not learned by word of mouth. "I spent two months with the old Hindu. . At the end of that time I had accomplished my purpose. I had dabbled in India's religions, her so cial life, her customs. Above all, I had learned no little about her seers and far-famed practitioners of legerdemain."
