It la but n few years slnco Onlsworlhy
caused much comment with his HtruiiK
play of Labor ami Capital, "Strife." It It
one of the most hitter arraignments ntul
condemnations of the obstinacy of these
great forces of the bushiest world He
is equally scathing to both shies. There
Is no partiality shown ".Strife" It meiely
nn expose of the wortt side of both factors
In oup labor disputes.
In "The HIackllst." the new t.nslty.
Paramount picture featuring ttlutiehe

ment only this time It is purely Capital
which Is held till to scorn. The cutthroat.
life-crushing method of big bushiest ate
attacked In n stralght-foruniil and clip
ping story As a photoplay "Tim HlocU
list" Is as great ns "Strife" Is for a drama.
Dlancho Sweet as the Ituttlnn girl. Vera
JIaroff, daughter of one of the oppressed
miners, has a role exactly suited to her
fine dramatic Rifts. Not slnco "Judith of
llethulta" has Miss Sweet done such a fine
piece of worlc. Her nrtlng throughout Is
forceful and dramatic without being forced
or melodramatic. As nti example nf tho
national screen nctreus Blanche Sweet Is
unequaled Physically slio Is a "camera
person," always recording well, but It Is
In her unerring Judgment of gestuie while
before the camera, profitably learned while
Under D. AV arlftith, that she Is so re.
markable. She la never Incnngruout; she
never grates on one's sensibilities by crude
ness or lack of finish
Charles Clary at Harcourt and Horace
11. Carpenter as Muroff aie finely cast,
giving able support to the star. The en
tire company is always "In the picture."
The photography is clear and the di
rection and lighting perfect, as one would
expect from any picture which Mr. Da
Mlllo has charge of.
The whole film is filled with thrilling
bits of acting, while the battle scenes,
burning of the miners' tents and tho scene
Where Vera shoots Harcourt aru thrilling
In tho extreme. It Is a notewoithy lllm,
nnd the best yet dono by Blanche Sweet
for this company.
It seems pecullnr after all that has been
raald about the movies bluing the singe so
hard to find tho movies assisting the Ac
tors' Fund so heartily. The Inaugural
performance of the series of Actors' Fund
benefit performances to be given by tho
moving picture interests wilt be unique
in Its general scheme. The performance
will tako place at the Strand Theatre on
the afternoon of March (!, the management
having donated tho house, tho orchestra
and tho cntlro working staff for this oc
casion. The chief difference between this and
other benefit performances, however, Is
that, although it Is to be strictly a motion-picture
enterprise, participated In by
motion-picture players, there will not bo
a film revealed. On tho other hand, all
available motion-picture stars will appear
In person. For variety several operatic
stars will slug.
Daniel Frohman and Samuel Cloldflsh
have charge of the performance, which is
Intended to start the ball rolling In tho
campaign of the film men to raise $300,000
of tho million dollars required by tho
Actors' Fund.
Charlie Chaplin turned in as his share
of the receipts for his acting $"700. Con
sidering these facts, what is Philadelphia
going to do about it?

Miss Rosenberg's soprano Is warm and

ample and the carrying power Is all that

The taxing fugnl counterpoint of tho lat

of his other numbers, but thero It mounted
to n climax of virtuosity of tho pianist.

"A Piece of Pie
A Brickbat and a Muddy
Lake Aren't Enough!"
Mack Sennett who has probably made more
people laugh than any other one man in the world
Mack Sennett director in chief of Keystone Com
edies turned sadly away.
"It's a serious business" he said with a sigh "to
make everybody laugh."
Then he opened a telegram from the Navy Depart
ment at Washington authorizing the use of a United
States Submarine for one of the biggest comedy films he
had ever directed, and things at the Keystone offices
began to hum.
Nowasubmarincof itself isn'tfunny; but when itgrad
ually and gently submerges while its dignified commander
is pacing the deck in goid braid and a three-cornered
hat, and especially when the commander is Syd Chap
lin; or when it gaily and suddenly comes up from the
depths and spills four active longshoremen into them
in other words, when a submarine is "directed" by
Mack Sennett it is funny. You sit there and look at
the cavortings of the thing and way down deep inside
of you there starts a chuckle that gets more and more
insistent till you shake all over with the kind of mirth
you can't keep down, and wouldn't if you could.
"A Submarine Pirate" isn't a brand new picture.
A great many thousand people have seen it. Maybe
you are one of them. Itis a good example of the kind
of picture that has made TRIANGLE plays the talk of
Broadway from New York to Seattle.
If by any chance you haven't seen "A Submarine
Pirate" keep your eye on the Moving Picture Theatres
and see it at the first chancr.
Meanwhile though not every Triangle picture is
as gfeat as that any one is a revela
tion in Moving Pictures.
