The bulk of their prohts are oin into capital while the government subsidies secure their dividends as before. Cotton f-pinninc, the chief of Japan's internal industries, is in similar condition.

OIK Ml'SlfS IMPORTANT PLACK IX HAM ON A." While "Ilainona." W. H. Clune's cinema operatic spectacle, coming to the Oliver theater next Sunday for one week, is primarily a motion picture, and comes heralded as one of the linest things ever achieved in this lint it would he unfair to limit it to that terri because it has musical embellishment which the i sponsors accord in its presentiment a place of importance equal to the screen visualization. An orchestra in the pit. makes "Kamona," it is claimed, one of the most impressive examples extant in co-ordination of melody and cinematography. Lloyd I'.rown. Mr. Olune's "man at the helm" during "KamonaV making, originated synchronization in picture play. His first achievement in this art. the production of "The IMrth of A Nation's" musical score, came as a revelation. In a great measure it was responsible for the amazing success of that superb photodrama. Mr. Chine, who as one of the producers of "The Hirth of A Nation" had come to fully realize the importance of music in that first experience. Immediately commissioned Mr. Brown to write a full score when "Ilamona" was undertaken. AT THU AKDITOHIKM. With each succeeding year the task of handling a mob for purposes of the picture play, seems to approach a greater degree of efficiency.. System has begun to play a part in the conduct of the big producing plants, and little time is now wasted on account of inability to care for- a small army. The operation of a system in this respect was strikingly demonstrated recently at Inceville during the production there of "The Captive God," the Triangle-Ince Astec story, in which William S. Hart is appearing at the Auditorium today. This drama called for more "extras" than any other play Mr. Inec has yet produced. It's scenes include those ot vast marching armies, stretching into the distance as far as the eye can see, and in making them for the sceen it was necessary to engage between 2.500 and 3.000 men for a period of two weeks. In order to cope with the situation, arrange- ' ments were begun several days ocfore the men were scheduled to work. On a wide and level space near the entrance of the plant. 30 partitions were erected, and each was numbered. Then as the men tiled in. the first hundred were instructed to dress in partition No. 1, the next hundred In No. '1 and so on. In this way the confusion of hndjn a place and attendant crowding anil delay were eliminated. The problem of feeding the men at one sitting was solved by serving thei luncheon buffet style. As each mini - i passed a given point, he was presented with a complete lunch, neatly wrapped, and instructed to repair to an adjacent grove to eat it. At the end of a half hour a trumpet signaled the men back to work. Pay Tincher in a two reel comedy called "Laundry Liz", completes the hill for today.

to tlie Oliter theater for Shutters." is the picture feature at the Iasalle today, cleo Hidgley and Wallace lieid are the principal players. Jt is a fairy tale with mythical dreams woven through, but the settings are modern and the romance one that appeals. A moral is taught concerning the uselessness of vain longings and that is happiness is found in contentment. Scenes of the Civil war. characters of the south, both of today and GO years ago. are cleverly interwoven in "According to the 'ode," at the li.Salle tomorrow. Marguerite Clayton, YZ. II. Calvert and Ixiwis Stone have the principal roles. It is an Kssanay feature of charm and interest, the scenes and costumes of the early days being accurate and pleasing. AT Till; COLONIAL. A picture patron, who studies programs and bookings carefully, recently commended the management of the Colonial very highly on the excellence of the pictures now being presented at this cozy home of the photodrama. Situated on the site of the first picture play theater in South Bend it has been open continuously and kept pace with the growth of the city. Under the management of Frank Chapman the house is having a most prosperous season and the uniform worth of the bills shown has won u strong and faithful clientele. Today's picture at the Colonial presents Lillian Walker, one of the delightful players for the screen drama. In a new role, as a girl of the Mountains she will win many i friends. "Hester of the Mountains" Kives her unusual opportunities and in the thrilling strike of the miners, the call of the troops and the consequent scenes of conllict, she is seen at her best. , REAL HOME COMFORTS Hattcry 15 Ilo.vs Await MiiMcr Into Federal Service.

Mr. Hart takes the part of a stalwart Spaniard, who, shipwrecked, is adopted by the people of Tehuan, in ancient Mexico, and made their leader because of his superior wisdom. Its scenes are rich with the picturesqueness that abounded in the Aztec country, and its action is tense with dramatic situations. Ilie production is under the direction of Thomas H.
