-r:
This sensational play, one of the most
successful of the century, and for many
years the starr�l g vehicle of Robert
Hilliard, has ba4n converted into a sup-
remely vivid eind startling photo -play
by the William Fox forces. Edward
Jose, former leading man with Sarah
Bernhardt, portrays in a masterly man-
mer the "Fool," who forsakes family
and friends for a soulless, sensual crea-
ture in the guise of a beautiful woman.
Theda Bars, leading woman at the
Theatre Antoine, Paris, has been east
as the "Vampire," one of the most
fascinating, though revolting female
characters ever created. Miss Bara'e
interpretation is remarkable for intense
dramatic realism, while her wonder-
fully seductive beauty serves to enhance
the illusion created by her art. Her
ed by thn ele dingo costumers oion were fsiher
ed by
native Paris. Mabel Frenyear, Victor
Benoit, May Allison, Clifford Bruce,
and little Runs Hodges, the clever child
actress, together with manyother play-
ers of reputation and ability, form a
supporting company such as has seldom
been gathered for a single production.

Why Are We Proud To Advertise This?
On the very day that war was declared the
price of the Canadian Ford car was reduced $60.
But don't mistake the reason for this reduc-
tion. It was made in spite of the war—not
because of it.
To understand this reason properly requires
a knowledge of how prices of Ford cars are
decided upon.
These prices are based on the estimated pro-
duction for the coming year—never on the
profits earned the preceding year.
For instance, some time before August 1,1914
the Ford Canadian executives decided that the
demand for Ford cars for the fiscal year starting
Aug. 1st., would be about 30,000 cars. With
this production it would be possible to reduce
the price $60.
So anannouncement was made to the public
at large that the prices of Nord cars would be
$60 less for the corning year.
It must be admitted. that this was a remark-
ably sincere and substantial expression of faith
in the prosperity of Canada and the Empire that
prompted this Canadian firm to stake their
entire business, on the continued prosperity
of their country.
Yet the Ford Canadian executives did not
allow the war to interfere with their plans in
the slightest degree. They considered the pros-
perity of Canada and the victory of the allied
cause as assured.
This was emphasized a second time last
August when the prices of Ford cars were again
reduced by $60.
Profitably to manufacture the Ford Canadian
ear at this lowered price requires a production
of 40,000 cars during the year ending Aug. 1, 1916.
To quote from General Manager McGregor's
own statement:
"If this company is able to manufacture and
sell 40,000 cars between August 1, 1915 and
August 1, 1916, we know that our buying
capacity, the production efficiency of our manu-
facturing plant, and the distribution of over-
head expense over a volume of this size will
enable us to reduce our prices $60 per car and
still make a reasonable profit, for the company
on this volume."
"If we are only able #6 manufacture and sell
on of $60 per car would
d this company would be
s. It is the profit on the'
cars which makes the price
possible."
build 40,000 cars means doub--
ar's business, the Ford executives
eve that prosperity in Canada will be
proportions this year as to create a
nd for fully this much increased business.
d the sales to date and the prospects for the
next few months prove that they are correct in
their belief.
Moreover, this action becomes increasingly
significant when the advance in price of raw
materials is taken into consideration. At least
one automobile manufacturer has been obliged
to increase the price of his car on this account.
And the Ford Company again have an added
burden in the increased duty on the few raw
materials that they are obliged to buy in the
United States. But all of these increases have
been absorbed into manufacturing costs by the
Ford Company as part of its obligations and its
duty in times such as these.
It is another significant fact that while prices
on other products have so generally been
increased, the prices of Ford cars have been
decreased.
So the Ford Company of Canada, is proud to
advertise this reduction in Ford cars because it
is a substantial, material proof of its faith in
Canada.
The Ford Motor Company of Canada, Ltd.;
is a Canadian Company owned in great part
by Canadians, and as such believes in Canada.
It believes in her prosperity. It believes in her
final triumph and the triumph of the Empire in
this tremendoso much from her manhood and from the faitstrule that is now h
and support of her people.
And this Company is willing to back its belief
to the last cent.
