r HE EYES OF THE WORLD."
Gorgeous Production of Harold Bell
Wrtgbt's Great Stacy.
•
An announcement of uncommon in-
terest to theatregoers and book -readers
alike is that one of the greatest of the
year's output of extraordinary attractions
involving lavish film production, Clune's
multiple -reel pictorial translation of
HaroM Bell Wright's famous story of
love and adventure, "The Eyes of the,
World,"1tas been booked for presewleion
here at the Model Theetrs on Monday
and Tuesday next.
The production is described briefly as a
visualization in pbotodrama on a lavish
scale- with w h1Ch is coordinated a musi-
cal score much the same as in opera -of
Wright's rid -blooded and romantic novel
of California which has enjoyed a sale of
more than one million copies.
This Clune production, like "Ramona."
is said to be a gorgeous one in every re-
spect. It is the fruitage of six months'
exclusive and unremitting work at the
big studios at Los Angeles and on the
actual scenes described in the book.
Those who have seen the virile charac-
ters of the delightful and stirring novel
moving before the eyes as they clash in
the struggle of two opposing ideals declare
that it is the finest depiction of a current
story ever put upon the screen.
'"The Eyes of the World" consumes an
entire afternoon or evening in its show-
ing. The scenario was prepared by the
noted author himself and In pea forming
this work he considerably amplified his
tale, which now in visual form carries
the characters through two generations.
The photodrantla is said to be of bril-
liant character, forming a, magnificent
background for the fascinating tale. The
outdoor scenes are said to form a wonder-
ful panoram>t of California's charms of
mountain and vale.
Besides amplifying the story, Harold
Bell Wright actively assisted in putting
his scenes and characters before the
camera. It is said that hovel innovations,
both in the dramatic unfolding of the
strwy and in the technical form of pre-
sentment. will stamp "The Eyes of the
World" as a mile -poet in the develop-
ment of cinema entertainment.

The speaker aroused enthusiasm when
he spoke of the war efforts of the United
States. His country, he said, had been
slow in getting into the war, they had, in-
deed, hoped they would not be drawn into
it. but having heeded the Biblical injunc-
tion, having allowed themaN6es to be
'mitten on one cheek and then on the
other, they had drawn back and were pre-
paring to strike a blow that would resound
throughout the world. Their efforts would
not pease until an end had been put to
militarism and junkensrrt.
Getting down to the subject of town
development, the sp.aker said that
nothing could be done with a Board of
Trade wbo.e fee is une dollar a year. He
proposed an orgamxation of 400 members
each paying $25 a year and signed up for
three years, guaranteeing an annual
revenue of 510.000. "That is the only
way you can dofaaything. Otherwise you

plause.)
The tendering of a vote of thanks to
the speaker brought interesting addresses
from Mr. Alex. Saunders and Pr.ncipal
Hume. Mr. Saunders sketched the in-
dustrial history of Goderich and the ef-
forts that had been made for greater
growth. He cited the Patriotic Fund as
an example of what could be done in
Goderich in the way of raising funds.
Principal Hume put in a word (or the
Educational interests, with the hope that
the plans for a greater Goderich would in-
clude a new collegiate buildingg.
The chairman called upon (anon Hill,
who paid a tribute to the climate of Gode-
rich by saying that since he had come
here after being ordered by his physician
to quit his work at Reginahe felt himself
so well that he would like to get to work
again. He realized, however, that Gode-
rich needed to be waked up, and. al-
though he had so recently become a re-
sident of the town, he would contribute
his share to any fund to he raised, The
Canon told some amusing stories to il-
lustrate his remarks, which were received
with hearty appreciation.
Rev. Dr. Meldrum, of Cleveland, was
called upon and was warmlyreeted by
the gathering. He spoke of the good
work done by the Cleveland Chamber of
Commerce, of which he was a member.
Goderich was dear to him; there was a
certain delightful charm about the town,
a personality of its own, that everyone
felt who visited it as he did. The value
of a town did not depend upon its size,
but rather upon the manhood and thein-
tegrity r>< its citizens and the interest the
citizens took in things worth while.
The meeting was brought to a dose by
the singing of the National Anthem.
On Tuesday moaning a committee
chosen by the gathering on Monday
night met Mr. Boykin and after discus-
sion and explanation entered into a con-
tract with his company for a campaign in
Goderich such as the company has con-
ducted success(u ly in many United States
cities. The whole matter will be laid be-

BRITISH FOOD CONTROLLER SAYS
FOOD SUPPLY IS UP TO CANADA.
There Never Was a Time When Food Was More Needed
and the Allies Depend to a Vital Extent Upon
the Dominion.
The following message addressed to the Organisation of Resources Com-
mittee has just been received:
London. April 5th. 1918.
"In these stern days it is inspiring to learn That Ontario is tackling the
food problem with redoubled energy. The terrific prep ure on our military
front makes it all the more Imperative that those behind the lines shall strai
evert nerve to defeat the enemy's avowed object of destroying the British
Empire. Germany hoped fust to starve the ofd country by the submarine
campaign and then to womb her land forces. She has failed to starve us and
she will fail to smash us. but we cannot achieve victory without food. There
never was a time when it was more needed. The Canadian farmer and
Canadian farmhand new have the opprrtunity to snake an effective reply to
the enemy's (recent onslaught by bending their undivided energies to the in-
creased pewhu ction of these fond supplies for which we depend to such vital
extent upon your great Dominion " (Sgd.) RHONDDA.
