The Wingham Advance, 1923-05-17, Page 812 THE in 14 1.1 ,is YCN 11 While it is no new thing for an author to endorse the pictur- ize d version of hisstory, it is rather exceptional tinna 1 when anauthor who is at the same time a Minister of the Gospel, declares that the screen is an infinitely better medium for reaching the public than is the pulpit. Yet that, according to Henry Alexander MeRae, the well- known Director, is exactly what Ralph Connor has said. Ralph Connor, which is the pert naive of the Reverend Dr. C, W. 'Gordon, —wrote a very large number of novels, prominent among there, "The Sky Pilot," "Black Rock," "'Tie Prospector," "Cameron of the Royal Mounted" and "The Foreigner:" "The Foreigner" was made into a picture by Director MacRae and under its new title— "God's Crucible" --will be shown a.1 the LYCEUM THEAT °'.E onll 'Thursday, Friday, Sarum, iVlay 24, 25, 26 it is a Hodkinson release and the cast includes, Wilton Lack - aye, Gaston Glass, Gladys Coburn, Bradley Barker, Kate Price and marry other prominent players. Mr. McRae says: "Dr. Gordon spent considerable time with the in Winnipeg during the production of "God's Crucible." I'foun'd him, a very charming gentleman and one with very decided views concerning the motion picture industry. At the start of ray first talk with him I -found him much opposed to both the stage and the screen—iii fact anything pertaining to things theatrical, Dr. Gordon. and I thrashed the subject out and I am glad to say that I finally suceeded in showing him just how wonderful a medium the screen could be made, And before I was through with him he told me that he was infinitely pleased to be . shown the error of his ways and that he was really convinced that one could do more from the screen than from the pulpit—a truly extraordinary admission from a Minister of the Gospel to make."
