The story | of Cain and Abel, the dramatic pro- | fect of the Ark and its gigantic | building, the outstanding figure of | heroic Noah, the. cataclysmic flood {of the waters, the thousands of art. | Isans erecting that frenzied monu- | ment, the Tower of Babel, the awe- { inspiring cleansing and destruction fof the wicked cities of Solom and | Gomorrah with a terrible visitation | 18" branch of the Kingston Yacht Montreal Power . of brimstone and fire, the gripping atory of Joseph and his Brethren; all these are pictured with a dra. | matic intensity and generosity of color and action that fills the eye and hold the attention spell-bound. "After Six Days" sweeps on and on from startling climax to stupendous thrill until it reaches the pinnacle of dramatic intensity in the tremen- dous_ battle scenes between the Egy- ptians and the followers of Moses. The sufferings of the Great Prophet and his people, the miracles wrought by the hand of the leader, the pa- thetic death which put a period to pe sce ly tingle with life and pathos on the silver sheet. The magnificence, gorgeous beauty of the Court Solomon, the blare of trumpets, the fads and foibles of kings and rulers, the pageantry and romance of the | days of Pharoah; all these are part of "After Six Days," which com- mence a three days' engagement at the Grand Opera House on Thursday, with a matinee daily. of NORMA TALMADGE HAS GREAT ROLE -- Fascinates as Arabian Dancer in "The Song of Love." One of the most fascinating and entertaining stories which we have ever seen is "The Song of Love," starring the magnetic Norma Tal- madge, and it would be difficult to visualize a role more fitting for the wy It is one of the finest and most artistic performances to her credit. In this First National picture, which was produced by Joseph M. Schenck, Miss Talmadgé plays the part of an Arabian dancing girl who becomes the centre of devious iatri- gues and conspiracies. She is the | main attraction in the tavern of her uncle, and news of her charm of face and figure and her Ppuise-quickening | dancing drew muny from far and | near. Falling in love with a stranger, she discovers too late that he is a spy, | but she finds that love is stronger { than hate and racial pride. A new Norma! Those who watched the making of the love | scenes between Norma Talmadge and Joseph Schildkraut witnessed a cinematic sensation. Norma, as a half-barbaric Ara- bilan girl of prim%'ve emotions, fairly swept the tlery Schildkraut of his feet with the intensity of her dramatic work. Norma revealed a hitherto uneuspected range of e¢mo- tions. The casting of Norma Tal- madge and Schildkraut together was 4 master stroke on the part of Pro- ducer, for without a doubt they com- plement each other with a perfection 6éen in -few-other screen combina- tions.
