THRILLING ROMANCE.
"LOVES OF CARMEN" AT THE
* QUEEN'S..
Magnificent settings representing the picturesque streets and the vast bull ring of old Seville will be seen in "Loves of Carmon," which will be screened at the Queen's Theatre from to-day till Saturday, This picture, directed by Raoul Walsh, who also directed "What Price Glory," Is out of the ordinary in more ways than one, for it brings before the camera again two popular players who also leaped to fame In the eple of the war. They are Victor McLaglen and Dolores Del Rio who played Captain Flogg and Charmantno respectively. Vio tor MeLaglen appears as a mighty | matador and Dolores Del Rio as the fiery tempered cigarette girl. The Ipicture departs from the popular fconception of Carmen of the Opera. The tinselled personality of the stage gives place to a more reali- stle Carmen-Carmen' as she really was, a
passionato gypsy maid. However, the story itself follows closely that of the opera even to the great climax when the adven- turess is shot by a jealous lover, though it has a welcome sprinkling of comedy in Victor McLaglen's typical manner. Many well known names appear in the supporting cast, including Ben Bard, Don Al- varado and Nancy Nash.

No one who does much mental work, and so has occasion to note the effect of loss of sleep upon the quality of the work done, will be in the least surprised to find that this should be the enan, for it is just the inventive and creative powers that suffer most through lack of sleep.
It would be interesting to know, however, whether Edison's plan of dividing up his hours of sleep, and taking some during the day, has materially helped film in his Inventive work.
