J5t Z' UkJE CONSTITUTION ATLANTA OCTOBER 4 A DELIGHTFUL FANTASY' AT The Patchwork Girl of a Brilliant Play Production. Probably the. most successful writer of fairy tales and nonsense prose In this country Is L. Frank' Baum. the' author of The Wizard of Oz" and the many other Oz books.

Mr. Baum has written twenty-six volumes of children's stories and several plays based on them. The Wizard of Oz with Montgomery and' Stone and The Ginger Bread Man" were among the biggest stage successes of their time. More recently The Tok Man of Oz" has taken the raclltc coast and Chicago by storm and is expected. in Sew York ome time during the present season.

The Patchwork Girt of Oz" is a delightful fanta jv brilliantly produced. It Is characterized by beautiful exterior scenes. tine interiors. splendid photography and. last but.

by no means least. just about. the prettiest lot of girls that has ever be gathered together In one- film play. The. story has all the.

delicate humor of. the authors other. works. Children will love It. and.

when they see It. ups wilt become children again. The Oz Film. Manufacturing company has made a debut which places it In a decidedly strategic. position on the motion picture Exquisite Italian landscapes sumptuous interiors and costly gowns lend an air of rlchneSlt to" the entire film.

Particularly striking Is the park scene in which the-stunned and hearted' Lolette returns. from. the mansion. of her royal rival As she walks beneath the trees a shower of leaves deluge her and one feels that they. are symbolical of her own love story which' has outlived its smiling summer.

Several notable effects contribute to the unusual Interest of the story. one of them the scene at the reception when Lolette through the glass doors. watches her treacherous husband. kiss her rival another when she approaches the triangular mirror and attempts to kill herself. But the film does not rely Upon minor tricks or striking settings lor its in teret.

It Is- a forceful drama. thrill- Ing at times. dull never. and with al ways the artistic' atmosphere of the studio. Whether rich or poor.

to. lend Its beauty to the general effect. Justice. From' Judge TMe ticket scalper sought admission at the heavenly gates. Were old out.

where on this H. C. Judson th crltlc of themov- lug picture world reviews the- New York production. of. The Gentleman From' Mississippi as follows It lies the" good characters especially Senator Langdon.

who Is played Wise himself and who is a. typical style gallant southern gentleman. owner of a cotton plantation 40 miles from a railroad station. And the flavor of these. characters is about the- same as In the original.

production. This Is a big point It means' that the picture has a- dozen. interesting studies of types. Then It lsobasd the story. told by the play or enough of It to be very Interesting.

The story. is particularly entertaining and the- picture has been able' to develop those portions of it that the stage could only. suggest the scenes lit the home town the senator cotton fields the Mississippi steamboat etc. The acting Is worthy. There Is' nothing lacking.

In Le work of those who portray the nine chief roles. although there. Is. an especial flavor In' Tom Wises dear old' senator. Nearly all the lesser roles are also.

well taken. The backgrounds are southern scenes. actual and convincing scenes In' Wash. ington. that.

of course. are actual and Interiors. All amply explain' and In terpret' the story-and all are excellently A' real old Southern mansion. was chosen. to be the Langdon home.

A real. cotton field Is the background chosen to to he looks after his negro help. Some southern village serves as background. for the political parade when Langdon Is nominated as senator in Mississippi that means When the parade reaches the" house. of the senator there is a touch of' way-back southern humor' In.

the' persuasion of Langdon to take the nomination the community points. Its revolver fifty of at him and he accepts with-hands up. There had been some talk' In the home town of a new navy yardthe government was going to buy. Langdon wouldn't speculate In swamp lands to sell to Uncle Sam at a big advance. a thing' the congressman from that dis- trlct was anxious for htm to do.

This congressman Is the story's villain. He has persuaded Langdons son and eldest daughter to put all they can get into these but Langdon doesn't know. It. Just before going to Washington. Langdon sends his.

son north to get money' to move his- big cotton crop. The congressman meets the boy In- Washington and gets him drunk. then gets' hlmto Invest. the. money in.

the and. since he has his fathers power- of- to. mortgage his' fathers property for' the same purpose. The object Is to force the. senator to vote for the new navy yard and so help the scheme and.

theschemers In Washington the senator cornea Into ct with two factions On one side is an honest newspaper man who. becomes his secretary the other is led by two grafting senators and the congressman. and. with them Is a clever- society woman. Ills eldest daughter.

and his. son aide with these while his younger daughter sides with him and the secretary. The senator falls' oefore the charms of the so clety woman and just escapes being trapped by. her. The action In the last two acts Is very' pleaslngi and cleverly contrived.

The climax Islthe senators plan' to'- turn the tables on the schem era when It has" been' truly. fox the son. had bought the swamps in the fathers name that the old man Is the chief owner of the property. It is a- good scheme and' It' astonishes his enemies when he throws It at them like a- bombshell on the floor of the senate. chamber.
