For his fourth picture on his Metro-Goldwyn contract Jackie Coogan has a contrasting story as different from “Little Roblnson Crusoe” as “A Boy of Flanders” was from Jackie's “Long Live the King.” Instead of the glitter of the South Beas and the palm and jungle-cloth- ed islands of the equatorial zone, the East Side of New York is the locale of “The Ragman,” which is coming to0 the~Capltol theater April 12, 13, 24 and 15 and the episodes are those characteristically metropolitan.

He had not caten since Satur. |day. Moreover, he had not seen the cireus, having spent all of his money in carfare, and he could not seem to get a job, he said. Arrangements were made to have him returned to his parents. “The White Sister”—Lyceum. 1t isn't often that a movle director gets a volcano to work, but the di- rector of “The White Sister,” star- ring Lillian Gish now showing at the | Lyceum, was able to phologrnph‘ a violent eruption of Mount Vesuvius just in time for the final scenes of F. Marlon Crawford's story, which | calls for exactly the kind of an ex. plosion that occurred. “The wh?le Sister,” one of the finest motion pic- tures ever filmed, is here for a re- turn engagement by special request and is attracting great interest. | Starting on Thursday one of the two features will be “The Tenth | Woman,” while the other will be “The Beloved Brute” and on the| same bill will be the usual comedies | and news reels as well as the latest | episode of “Galloping Hoofs,” the ser | ial starring Johuny Walked.

Saratoga Takes to Water ot Camden, N. J. Camden, N. J, April T.—Built to contain the mightiest propelling en- gines that ever went into a ship, the | U. 8. 8. Saratoga takes to the water here today as the first of Uncle Sam's fleet of fdst, hard hitting air. plane carrlers. The launching marke a tremendous stride forward in the art of naval construction, although., the service abllify of the Saratoga as a floating hangar and landing fleld for airplanes still 1s to be proven. The huge, queer looking craft will carry 180,000 horepower to give her the 33 to 84 knot speed she needs. Her’ dynamos would furnish all the electricity needed by a city of nearly 1,000,000 population for light, heat, cooking, street ears and nearly overy other purpose; her mighty steam turbins are stronger than the combined. steam power of all the ships in the navy just a few decades ago; her vast flying deck is long onough and broad enough to hold two old-time battelships sct end to end. " And yet the ship is just a monster experiment with the newest form of auxiliary naval power, air power, tion points, so far as naval experts at home or abroad are concerned: it depends upon actual, practical ex- I perience with the launching fnto air | - and landing again of the 72 airships that make up her real offensive armament. The ship herself is just a fast, lightly armed but almost un- armored transport to get her deadly brood of wasps out where they can rain bombs on enemy hattle fleets or batteries. The original plans for the Sara- toga would have set her in the wae ter some years ago as one of a fleet of six of the biggest, fastest and most heavily armed battle cruisers ever designed. She would have look- ed every inch a fighting ship, the whole 888 feet of her length, Redesigned as an aircraft {rans- | port, however, the Saratoga will be one of the strangest in appearance that has ever gone to sca. top-hamper has gone by the board te leave only the vast flying deck, running her whole length and spreading amidsidps to an extreme breadth of 105 feet, Crowded over to one side of that deck will be the re- duced compass of her stacks, Jhe HOOVER as it Sweeps It BEATS...

She will look, when completed, like & monster seagoing barge with a misplaced deckload and | all the symmetry and beauty of line | that would have marfed aa a cruiser | will be lacking. | But in the 32 heavy bombers and 40 combat and other types of alr- craft designed to clear the alr from the decks of the big craft, the Sara. toga will carry a potential destruc- | tive force far greater than would (have been the power of her guns. | 8he will have enough explosives in reserve to ro-equip the airships after | they have dropped charges that would wreck a city, 8he will carry machine shops and expert mechanics by the score to keep her air brood ! [in fighting trim. She will carry | enough gasoline and ofl to keep all the motor cars of a big town in operation for a week, and ehe will have every appliance-that naval in- | genuity haa yet devised to assist the | planes when they set out on their | grim missions of deatrugtion. The speed of the ship Is her great- | ost asset, 8he will be able to slash . { through any but the heaviest seas at | the rate almost equivalent to a rail- | road speed of 40 miles an hour. ! | Given that specd and the engine power and fuel capacity to maintain | it hour after hour, the carrier codld | range far ahead of the battle fleet and then projact her air flotilla an- other 200 or more miles farther to strike the first blow at an approach- ing enemy.. Sh® will be from seven | [to ten knots faster than the fastest battleship, and only themost modern crulsers or destroyers could ‘keep | pace with her. | | The navy has had no chance yet| [ to practice with any such weapon The slow, cumbersome and | improvised second line carriers so | far in service have been able barely to furnish a hint of what such a | ship as the Saratoga might be ex- | pected to accomplish. Maneuvers in which they functioned have been al- | most entirely constructive, with most of theair fleet and carrier clements ! imagined rather than real.
