(Sixty-seven What Happens in the Audience (Continued from page 56) arguing for a new trial. The attorney contended that after the evidence was ail in the jury was allowed to go to a local theater, where they witnessed a story depicting a thrilling train robbery in which one or two of the passengers were shot by the bandits. The attorney insisted that this picture influenced the jury to such extent that they could not return a fair verdict. That a Motion Picture may often prove a tracer of lost persons is shown by the case of the young engineer whose wife left him after a youthfully tragic quarrel. For months he had searched for her in vain. He was living at a hotel, and he kept her picture on his dresser. Naturally, the maid became familiar with the features of the missing wife, and one day, when she happened into a Motion Picture theater, she thought she recognized one of the nurses on board a steamer leaving for the front with other American nurses and doctors. Returning home, she spoke of it to the engineer. He went to the theater and identified the nurse as his wife. Now he is on his way to France, determined that if she will not return to him she shall have the task of nursing a wounded soldier whom she once called husband. In Corpus Christi, Texas, a traveling man happened into a theater between trains. This man had a secret sorrow in his life. Three years before, his motherless, stage-struck daughter had run away from home, and he had never been able to trace her. What was his delight to see her name flashed on the screen in the cast of one of the pictures and, when the scenes were shown, to recognize his young daughter playing a part in a California setting. He traced the film company that produced the picture and left at once for California to rejoin his child. Among the German war novelties introduced at the front, the Moving Pictures play a prominent part. The men are shown pictures of the villages and towns they are supposed to capture on the morrow, and the hills, forests, ridges in the ground, the difficulties of the march, the existing trenches, and the best places to throw improvised bridges over streams. Incidentally, one cannot help but wonder what some of those soldiers are thinking, as they watch these pictures. Many of them know that they are gazing upon their probable burial place. We will draw a veil over the countless loss of hearts when sweet sixteen sits in the audience and watches the dashing hero, or the picturesque villain, and make up their minds to write him about it when they reach home. It is all a part of living one’s illusions, and surely this is a tribute justly earned by those conscientious actors and actresses who work so tirelessly for us. When they thus open, by their art, the gates to the Land of Eternal Youth, let us also enter, with a child’s heart, and shut out, for a time, this sinful, war-racked world. ■■■ ill mi lllliiii in My Beauty Face and Bodily E xercises Will make you young, and keep you young, in face, in figure, in spirit.
