Mankind owes a greatt deal to the
rower of motion pictures fcr taking
one back through the vista of years
bygone and showing how things woie
when "you were a tadpole and I was
-> fish.."'
Now comes Douglas Fairbanks and
lakes folks back eight hundred years
and reveals to them how things looked and how people acted when chivalry was at its zenith. He accomplished
this notobly in his latest United Artr
ists Production, "Douglas Fairbanks
in Robin Hoed," which critics pronounce the greatest motion picture
made, and which is coming Saturday
and Sunday to the Liberty theatre
The joys and sorrows of the stirring
Twelfth Century in England havt*
been lived over again in this
midern day before the camera and
the portrayal is deemed absolutely
accurate, this whole production being based on every fact available in
?11 the records extant.
The castle of the Norman period,
■suoroanded by the inevitable deer)
moat, come*? to the screen as the result of the consummate skill of American engineers, arichitects, ar.tists
r>nd artisans a*>d it is unqucsti; nahly

•■nd it serves to support many riiount-
d and unmoiu"t,3*l soldiers sml
knivhts in numerous dashing charges
'■i ami rut of the building.
Realism abounds everywhere inside
and outside this castle. For instance,
tbe moat, is filled with beautiful water
allies and live bullfrogs. Among the
interior is a hanquet hall covering
more space than the concourse in the
Pennsylvania Railroad Terminal in
New York City. Tlie floor in this banquet hall is composed of large concrete, vari-colored Ulocks said to be
exact duplicates of the material and
style in vogue those eight hundred
years agou All the goldware used
for banquets in "Douglas Fairbanks
in Robin Hood" picture was patterned
faithfuJIly after the specimens now
in various museums.
The knights or warriors of those
diys in storming a castle, didnot die
in the moats, but they considered
it viery high honor if they could give
up their lives beside their flagstaff or
co^or-standard. The flagstaff, used .by
Mr. Fairbanks was fashioned after'one*
used hy King Richard. Its total
weisrht "was three hundred pounds.
During the many months in which
fhe Pickfcrd-Fairhanks studios at
Hollywooodl were given over to the
fi1iming of this epochal photoplay, the
whole place was constantly a maze
o.f =ipears. About) two thousand spears
"rd an -equal number of swords were
n*=pfl and there were five thousand
daggers besides. All of these weapons
were hand-made and were the exact
"onies of the very instruments of warfare which made the fighter of the
"Twelfth O-ntury so formidable.
