All who see Theda liani In "Cleo-1
palia," William Kux's spectacular j
film production which comes to tho
Star theatre next Sunday nnd .Mon
day for two shows daily H 2 : ;! 0
and Kllfj p. m., will realize the
tremendous difficulties of sncli an
undertakliiK. The imiifclnnllon of
the audience Is carried back nine
teen hundred years, in Hie seltlni-'s
of Hie many hundred scenes of
historical accuracy. Temples and
palaces in all pirKcoiiHiiosn repre
sent both Kiiyptlan and Roman '
affluence. This Is the occasional
screen production that startles hyi
lis magnificence and by the huge-j
ness of Its representation. '
Theila Burn is already an Idol of
the screen but by her portrayal of i
the passionate nnd slrenlc Clntw j
palra, she has advanced as an ac-1
tress In a way Hint is almost Incom
parable. She Is said to realize as
Cleopatra every phase of amatory;
enticement that comiuered all who
came under her Influence, winning
both .lullus dinner 'and Mare An-,
tony rnmi I lie call of leadership I
only to bo followed by their down-'
rail. It Is a graphic slory that has
been exposed with rare fidelity to
Almost a Voiiiib .Man Attain.
When n man awakes la the niorn
iiiK with back so stiff he can hardly
stoop over, with sliootliiK twlnnes in
sides and nioins, dark anil puffed
pouches under eyes when his move
ments seem slowed up and he lacks
vim mid eneiKV Instead of Biiylnn.

There are wonderful battle
scenes such as the battle of l'hilllpi;
Oetavlns' army coming over the
desert Kinds on the run to enter
Alexandria, and tin? naval battle
of Aciiuni with tl.e defeat 'of An
tony and ( leopatra s ships, which
Ir. the lirst naval battle ever re
corded; It is shown on Hie screen
for the first time. Thousands of
people are seen in the prediction
and hundreds of horses, many of
them drawing speeding chailoti
over the sands.
Cleopalra's entry into Tarsus in
her royal barge, propelled by lier
black slaves at the oars, is one of
splendor in settinj?. It is her first
meeting with Antony, who suc
coiiis Immediately to he:- charms
and they leave togellier on the
barge lor Alexandria, where he
becomes a slave to her ' bidding.
The fen st of Isis as is, given at
the palace is another gorgeous dis
play of color and effect. The
scene in the ltonian senate nail the
death of Caesar, followed by An
tony's oca I ion over his body- at the
market place, surrounded by hordes
of followers, is also greata nil, .WK.'V;.

This picture is declared to be
the greatest of all film productions,

scene of n slight blaze at ll::ifl this
morning. The roof caught from the

; The FIJI Islands arc doing their "hit"
toward helping their mother country.
: Knghind, and the allies win the war.
j nnd already several contingents of
, I'lJI's men have gone to the front, as
well as two (leluchuieuls of natives,
each 1(10 strong, who are now engaged
; In transportation work in Trance. Ad
! vices reaching here recently show that
the officers of the allies are quick to
select members of the Kljlati eontin
: gents for commissions,
j I'or some time earlier In the wer
there wiih some 'doubt ns to whether
men would go ofucinlly to the front
' fi'or Fiji. Jinny men. In fact, brooked
the delay and decided to go direct,
either by way of the Commonwealth of
Australia, or the Dominion of Camilla.'
; Those llrst men were the pick of the
j coUmy's best In physique and height,
unit those who have gone since were
! the result of a careful choice made, so
j lhat FIJI would lie represented by the
best of her ituinHond,
'These .men have heeii ntfc.ustomed to
I the open air aiui. lii a nieusure, were
! in Fiji only hecnus.e Hie spirll of entcr-
prise was well developed in them.
There Is nothing' surprising about the
j honor the men from Fiji have gained
and the reputation they have made l'nr
themselves. It Is generally believed
Hint the percentage of men In the
! Fijian colli Indents and re-enforcements
, who have gained commissions will coai
i pare favorably with any oilier unit
' formed or dispatched under similar cir-cumsinnccs.
