POSTPONEMENTS of Philadelphia's
Labor Day openings is by way of an
armistice. At least therp will not be
another test until September 22, when
the next openings with dntes attached
nre underlined. The-are "Miss, Nelly
nf N'Orle'ns,' featuring Mrs. Fiske
in a high comedy role for the Hrond's
Inaugural, and "Three Faces East," a
I'nhan production, ivhich was to follow
"La, La, Lucille" at the Garrick.
Maybe It will.
MVHERE Is only one thing missing
- from the spectacular motion-picture
drama, "The World and Its Woman,"
featuring Geraldtne Farrar as an opera
singer on the quickly improvised scren
at the Opera House. Every audience
thU week why ate they called audi
ences, when nothing is audible? Why
not 'spectrance for nn aggravated as
sembly of cinema fans? to resume,
every audience yearned inexpressibly to
hear tht golden notes of the diva In the
mirror song from "Thais," which role
Mia Farrar is represented on the screen
as singing triumphantly at the Petrograd
Opera Bouse.
Asld e from the omission of a solo from
Alias Farrar, this production is excep
tionally supplied with good music. Sid
ney Lowenstein, who has had no table
experience as a concert soloist and as
an. ensemble player with symphony or
chestras, has a band of thirty musi
cians under nls baton. Yesterday, be
fore the Farrar film began to flash its
romance of heroic womanhood versus
bolshevism on the screen, he talked
nbout some of the difficulties that con
front the musical director of an elab
orate high-class cinema production. For

compelled to write special scores him

nothing in the big operas or symphonies
seem applicable.
"It is necessary for the director to
he thoroughly conversant with musical
masterpieces," said Mr. Lowenstein,
"for otherwise lie would be often at n'

carefully planned and .
I executed as was the dramatic
making the film. The public nowadays
has grown to expect and demand the
best there is in music when it goes to see
the high -class motion pictures in high
cl.iss theatres. Many of the patrons
are as interested in hearing the music
as they nre in seeing the picture, and
hundreds, of those who attend the show
ings of the same film n second time do
so ns much because of the beautiful nnd
harmonious selections as because of the
screen success.
"In the music incidental to the show
ing of 'The World and Its Woman' we
have endeavored to make every selection
harraonUe perfectly with the action."
"Whirling Dervishes" In Movies
The first moving pictures of the
"whirling dervishes" of Turkey arc to
be seen in ono of the new single-reel
subjects of the Rureau of Pictures of
the American lied Cross, according to
a statement of the Educational Films
Corporation of Americn. The organiza
tion has finished cutting and titling four
of the new pictures, one of which will
bo devoted to the city of Constanti
nople. The dervishes of Turkey are an an
cient religious order, rather to be classi
fied as a profession thnn a priesthood.
They correspond with the religious
fakirs of Indln. The Turkish dervishes
hold their performances in dim cellars
nnd collect goodly sums from the nu
dlcnce of lnymen nnd spectators that
is present. They are allowed to marry,
nnd they labor in the .fields like other
men when the dervish business fails to
earn sufficient income to meet the high
cost of living.
Stanley Company's New House
Finishing touches are being made to
Philadelphia's newest thrcntre the
Capitol at 724 Market street which,
under the direction of the Stnnley Com
pany of America, will be shortly opened
for presentation of motion pictures of
high character. The new theatre will
contain all the modern improvements
known to theatrical architecture. The
seats nre roomy and comfortable. Itest
rooms for ladles and smoking rooms for
men are up-to-date. The stage setting
is elaborate in design nnd equipped
with the latest crystal screen a patent
which does away with all eyestrain.
The projection machines nre also con
sidered the last word in the scientific
making of such machines, nnd will In
sure n clear picture without fluttering.
The Capitol is being equipped with a

Klngsley Benedict, Keith Star,
Quits Screen
The movies ns nu advertising factor
are a definite means of exploitation.
The screen favorite in an exceedingly
short time becomes known throughout
the world, consequently film btars are
generally better known than the players
of other branches of te theatre.
Kingsley Ilcncdict was nn excellent
actor long before he loaned his talents
to the screen. lie created nnd plajed
many Important parts in support of
prominent legitimate stars and in suc
cessful plays. -However, it remained
for the films to make his name a house
hold word.
Nothing, however, will lure many
players away from the spoken drama
permanently. Mr. Kenedlct is nguiu
seeking his return by appearing in
vaudeville. For this purpose he has ob
tained a one-uct play, "Wild Oats,"
which lie will present at Keith's next
week. It is a little study of criminol
ogy, n mixture of fun and philosophy.
New Rex Beach Comedy
A novel introduction to the Rex Reach
picture, "The Girl From the Outside,"
has been planned by S. L. Bethanfel.
who will stage the production when it
opens for a first showing at the Chest
nut Street Opera House. "The Girl
From t'a Outside" is a comedy. "Deaf
Mike," fiiuyvd by Walter MacNamara,
is a character that creates a number of
amusing situations. He hears just what
he wnnts to and acts accordingly, those
nbout him being unaware of his decep
tion. Goldwyn Utilizes Aerial Propeller

ACHIEVEMENT
That, Literally, Characterizes Street
In Farrar Film
One of the most solid nnd true'to
detail hettings probably ever constructed
for a motion picture is the huge street
scene used in Gernldine Fnrrar's fea
ture, "The World and Its Woman," nt
the Chestnut Street Opera House. This
was built on solid concrete foundations,
with heavy timber throughout. The
street proper was graded, oiled nnd
covered with light gravel. The side
walks nic laid with cement. The walls
of the buildings, severnl of which arc
more thnn fifty feet tall, are covered
with genuine plaster, button-lath being
used. This style of lath is used only
for permanent buildings, and construc
tion men wondered at its being used by
the Gohlwyn Company. Hut the results
on the screen nre notable for solidity
nnd illusivencss.
The big street and building entrances
nre populated by more than 2d00 ex
tras. There arc mob nnd soldier scenes
and genernl activity, which make the
place look like the real thing.
Poster .Exhibit at Opera House
James A. Murphy, of the firm of
artists who have made all the posters
displayed in the lobby and in front of
the Chestnut Street Opera House in
recent years, will give a three days' ex
hibit of thentrical sketches which his
firm has made, nt the Chestnut Street
'Opera House. He will have a staff of
i twenty artists. Murphy planned and
had executed under his direction all the
sketches for the latest Winter Garden
shows, for "Monte Cristo, Jr.," "Siu-
ibnd," Al ..Tolson's show, "Greenwich
I Village Follies" and the Mack Scnnctt

While filming one scene represent
ing a jungle in India, but which wag
mndc in Florda, Miss Ferguson was
watching flics which annoyed a tame
looking alligatar lying half submerged
in a lagoon. Her gold mesh purse, con
taining a considerable sum, fell' from
her hand and without warning wns
snapped up by the nlllgator. An attend
ant suggested that the animal be killed
nt once nnd the property recovered, but
Miss Ferguson would not permit this.
Miss Ferguson Is a lover of animnls.
"The Witness for the Defense" is a
thrilling picture, the scenes of which
nre Inid in Kngland and India. The
support includes Vernon Steel, Warner
Oland and Wyndhnm Standing.
Two notable engagements for "The
Valley of the Giants;" in which Wal
