COMING TO THE ARCADE FRI
DAY AND SATURDAY, JULY
27 AND 28.
No» since the munitions explosion
on Black Tom Island in New York
Bay had the countryside along the
north shore of Staten Island rever
berated with such terrific concus
sions as when Greater Vitagraph
staged its military scenes of "Wo
manhood, the Glory of a Nation,'
featuring Alice Joyce and Harry
Morey which is at the Arcade theatr«
July 27 and 28. The islanders turned
out en masse to watch the sway and
surge of battle. They are the first
Americans, treated as a community,
who have any semblance of modern
war tactics as conducted before
Verdun and on the Somme. Here
was a great departure from the old
-fashioned type of battle scene done
for show purposes.
Staten Island, a stone's throw
from Manhattan, rocked under the
roar of great guns to make Vita
graph's great spectacle for Ameri
can military preparedness convinc
ing. Staten Island saw the sky ablaze
at night with illuminating bombs. It
beheld trench mortars hurling their
explosives into the opposing burrows
a few yard away. It gasped at troops
sheltered by curtain fire hacking
their way through the barbed wire
entanglements to rush the snug,
sandbagged trench forts. It mar
veled at .huge howitzers and 42-cen
timeter cannoi\. it shuddered and
. retreated in a panic at the gas at
tracks with their sinister, safforn
clouds stealing before the breeze
upon the doomed defenders of other
wise impregnable positions.
Commodore J. Staurt Blackton,
who personally produced this picture
had the co-operation of the v 3th
Coast Defense Command, N. G. N.
Y., and accompany of regulars from /
the United States Army. The 550
men of this command went into
camp and lived there for two weeks
under strict camp conditions.
The ordinarily mild aspect of the
rolling terrain was changed with
pick and spade until it seamed like
the wrinkled face of Mars with
trenches and bomb shelters. Then
commanding positions and ambushes
alike were altered with the long
blue-black muzzles of heavy guns as
monuments of destruction. Queer
engines, lurked in the trenches. Pipe
coils and gas masks and steel head
gear and hand grenades and para»
chutes were behind the lines. Obser
vation balloons, aeroplanes and ar
mored cars were closfr at hand. All
these things had been assembled for
the big scenes.
And although days and days were
spent in filming these scenes and
hundreds of thousands of dollars in
securing them, they only compose
vivid fftshes in the finished produc
tion, lending atmosphere and color
$o the sodf-Min-ing production as ai
whole.

"Thou too sail on, O Ship of State,
Sail on, O Union, strong and great'
Proud before her sister ships she sails the seas of time;
Out, far out upon the deep, all stately and sublime—
What of fearsome whisperings and what of doubting eyes?
She has stoutly held her course beneath the blackest skies,
She has fought the billows off and she has dared the gales
When her sister ships have drifted back with tattered sails.
The old ship, the bold ship, the ship that we are sailing on!
Straight she goes and great she goes—her sister ships a-trailing
Riding out the bitter storms all steady; stanch and straight —
The old ship, the bold ship, the good ship of state /
Other ships go wallowing uncertain to and fro,
Staggering and wavering against the winds they go;
Other ships go craftily in fear of warring fleets—
Proud before her sister ships she sails with straining sheets ;
Out the course and on the course with compass pointing true,
She has tossed aside the bleakest winds that ever blew.
The old ship, the bold shipI Full seasoned is each rib of her;
Honest thread and trusty seam from spinnaker to jib of her;
Ready for the storm or calm, all comely and sedate —
The old ship, the bold ship, the good ship of statel
Sail before your sister ships the course that you must make!
Let them waste their whisperings of wonder in your wake !
JVe who sail aboard of you, full well we know your strength,
Know how sure you breast the waves that lurch along' your length,
Know the times that you have met the shiver and the shock,
Racing in your royal rush by hidden reef and rock !
The old ship, the bold ship, the ship that we are sailing on;
Great she goes and straight she goes, her sister ships a-trailing on,
Following and wallowing within her wake they wait —
The oft ship, the bold ship, the good ship of statel

Where Old *Glory Goes
Wilbur D Nesblt
%^7utAor of
Tour Hog and My Hag*
Up and down in all the lands and all the seas between;
Brave and bold against the sky, and clear and fair and clean;
Winding through the wilderness, or on the beaten track;
Half the way around the world—and more than that, and back.
Whither will Old Glory go? But whither has it gone?
Mark the way of honor that it has not smiled upon.
Snapping from the halyard block» of argosy and fleet;
Fluttering to fife and drum that time the marching feet;
Beating back the driven spray, and blazing o'er the nanda—
It has led a starry way —a way through all the lands.
Whither will Old Glory go? But whither has it gone?
Where the spot it has net held the glory of the dawn?
Men have gone beneath it o'er the hills and o'er ihe waves;
Men feel Its caresses while they slumber in their graves.'
Red and white and blue it glows against the bending sky,
Bringing everywhere it goes new lustre to the eye.
Whither will Old Glory go? But whither has it gerne?
Teil the miles it has not traced—the way it has not won!
