DOROTHY HARPUR Old Wine in New Bottles By JOHN S. GREY APOLOGIES TO BYRON "The Isles of Greece! the Isles of Greece! The land where burning Sappho sung" — We see them for a dime apiece, The Moving Picture films among! A CASH TRANSACTION How doth the little Picture Show, With several hundred seats, Improve the minds of those who goLikewise the gross receipts! THEY'RE EVERYWHERE From Greenland's icy mountains To India's coral strands. The Moving Picture showmen. Have taken up their stands. LONG WAY AFTER LONGFELLOW The shades of night were falling fast, As thru a village street there passed A multitude who paid to go And see a Moving Picture show! WHEN TAKEN AT A DISTANCE Full many a gem of purest ray serene The dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear, Full many a film is thrown upon the screen Which costs a lot of cash to put it there. WE DONT BLAME HER Maud Muller, on a summer day, Was in the meadows, making hay, But she would rather — so they sayHave seen a Moving Picture play! 106
