Yet this great advancemient of an i'mP01'tfW-t industry covers thc span of comparatively few years in this still young Tufemtieth Century. The synchronization of sound is in itself one of the wonders of the .y6WeTaf1b ' The lavish musicals, the thrilling notes of operatic 'l7l'LbS'lf7, and the 1101068 of the most brilliant vocalists are all recaptured and brought within the reach' of ovefy' one. The average citizen may not understand a word of French or Spafnish, but he can and does appreciate good music when he hea-rs it played and sung by the b6Sf muscians and singers it is possible to procure. The breath-taking ej5'ects produced on the present-dew S07'06'1'b GTG Stal U' 5044709 of increased wonderment to movie-goers, even though they are used to camera stunts and deceptions. A terrifying shipwreck, the chaos of an earthquake, a flight of locusts, a tropical hurricane, are all routine work: to the special efects N cameraman, yet they thrill and chill a multitude. But the supreme triumph of the industry has just recently been achieved. That I triumph is-Technicolor. Technicolor is the fuljillment of the dreams of the creators .' of motion pictures since their introduction. The brilliant hues of a fiery sun-Set, the deep rich blue of the sea, the flesh tones of a human being, all possible through the inventive genius of Hollywood laboratory technicia . And still they 'march 011,- -X-,.. Q wa-rd to their goal-better entertainment for millions. X The cinema has formed a large part of the l' es of er-increasing audience.
