"AFTER SIX DAYS" A WONDERFUL WORK Beautiful Picturization of the Oid Testament Coming to the Grand. | { The management of the Grand thea- tre has always shown a disposition to give its patrons the best that is obtain- able in the motion picture market, and that is has succeeded there is not the slightest doubt. As a further evidence of getting only the best for the pic- | ture-going public of this city we cite the fact that beginning Thursday, May 22nd for three days they will show the most unusual and at the same time the greatest production that has yet reached the silver sheet, namely "After Six Days," featuring Moses and the Ten Commandments, in 10 reels. In speaking of this subject it brings to mind a news item we read recently, that there were more copies of the Bible sold each year in this country than all the ten "best sellers" put to- gether, which proves conclusively that the inhabitants © of this country | are not as bad as a lot of foreign lec- { turers would picture us. We have al- ways felt that picture-goers are more partial to stories that have historical value, we felt too that they were more | interested in the clean, honest, whole- | some kind of pictures; being of thig | belief we felt that the big producers of | motion pictures would soon realize this { and would bring to the screen some | portion of the Bible at some near date { We never imagined, however, that one | producer would burden himself with | the task of transplanting the Old Tes. tament into one evening's screen enter- | tainment; nevertheless this has been accomplished in such a manner that it has met with wonderful commenda- ol re it has been shown. It is said that it took over five years to make this picture and we believe it; it said too that it required a cast of over ten thousand people, and further it is said that the production cost over $3,000,000.00. In this connection, not knowing real picture values in well known produc- {ANE GREY'S HERITAGE % DE AN IRVIN WILLAT PRODUCTION with BEBE DANIELS - ERNEST TORRENCE NOAH BEERY + + LLOYD HUGHES ERT personal supervision.

The Dominion Government is call- ing for tenders for extensive dredging work to be done in Kingston harbor during the summer months. The work to be done is close to the wharf at the plant of the Canadian Locomotive works and the channel at Wolfe Is- land. For years considerable difficulty has been experienced by the captains of steamers landing at the locomotive works wharf as there is only twelve feet of water, and steamers drawing more have. found it impossible to land. It is the intention to increase the depth to fiftcen or sixteen feet. It will be a very difficult task as there is a sill of rock which will have to be blown away. The rock will have to be drilled and then blasted out. The steamer Wolfe Island has had considerable trouble for some years on account of the shallowness of wa- ter from the Wolfe Island wharf out to the main channel. Thé govern- ment intends to dredge a channel eight feet deep at low water and two hundred and fifty feet wide from the ers have, when mentioning their pic- tures. we will merely take their word for it. But with a cast as suggestad above and the time it required to make we can say without any fear of :0a- tradiction that it cost as much as any picture ever made. We wish to ron- gratulate the managerement of the island out to the main channel. Tt will take at least a month to do the work. ---------- Sons of Scotland.
