Changes at Thanhouscr
Some real changes aro being mado at
the Thnnhoubcr plant. Things nro bolng
reorganized with a vengeance. It soem3
that Mr. Thanhousor Is working more
or less upon the linMg tit delivering good
films without paying big prices for alius
and artists who nro to be featured. Syd
ney Urncy and Frank Farrlngton have
resigned from the company, nnd it Is
understood that thoro may be moro
changes.
It looks no If Mr. Thnnhouser Is going
to take a stand on the policy followed
for so many years by Biogiaph, that t
making Mima and advertising only the
namo of tho brand nnd not advertising
tho artists. Nnturally, this has been ono
of the big questions In tho trade for years.
This reversing back to the former policy
by such a prominent manufacturer as
Mr. Thnnhouser will bo watched with in
terest. Pius X in Motion Pictures
Motion pictures of Popo Tins X, tnken
nt the Vatican nfter 18 mouths of en
deavor on tho pnrt of a young Ameri
can, Jnmes Slevln, will soon bo seen In
this city under nusplccs of tho Knights
of Columbus and with arrangement with
tho Sacred and Historic Film Company,
at 'Sew York. The pictures give intl
ninto views of tho divinrtcrt prelate, not
only at ceremonials, but nlso In his study
In tho Vatican, whero tho Papal mes
sages to Catholics all over tho world aro
written. In another picture, among tho
group of attendants upon tho Popo may
bo seen tho successor of Pius, IJcno
dlct XV.
Slovln's success in obtnlnlng permission
to photograph tho Popo was duo to per
sistence nnd diplomacy. Ono seeker for
tho privilege of mnklng motion nlctures
of tho Holy Father wns so zealous ns
to bo turned awny abruptly, although ho
was a stanch Catholic. Another deter
mined man spent JIW.OOO in vain. In pre
liminaries In a phntogrnphlc campaign
that camo to naught. Tho pictures that
Slovln obtained glvo tho most dlvcrto
views of ceremonials nnd of Informal
nppearnnces of tho Popo, and aro ro
sarded a3 of tho greatest historical as
well ns contemporary Interest. Unusual
opportunities wero afforded Slcvln to go
on with his photographic plans, and tho
result Is tho roniarknblo pictures that
will bo shown hero for tho first tlmo
about April 10. Americans havo been
enabled to bee with their own eyes many
oventa that only the rarest opportunity
would afford In the Eternal City Itself.

Moving" Pictures Taken By Daring1 Photographers on the Deadly Battlefields of
Europe : Real Action Photographs Showing the Marvelous Results of
The Camera
This Is the Final Week for These Wonderful Pictures!
Be Sure YOU See Them.
You See It All The Great Toll of War Daring Aerial Maneuvers Great
Offensive Movements and Heroic Stands
German army entering Brussels; field guns in action near Antwerp; the armored
train at Arvin firing broadsides as it passes (the daring photographer was standing
on the cab of the engine, unprotected, while taking this picture) ; the bombardment
of Ghent; the 42-centimeter guns in action and latest photos of the Kaiser with his
troops.
3000 feet of these films have just arrived; they are now being shown for the first
time in this country along with the other action photos. Be sure YOU see these
pictures; there have been some war photos shown before, but these are real action
pictures taken right at the front.
