PHOTODRAMAS OF SEX NEED FINE TREATMENT Crude Handling Mnra Subjects Distorted by Some Authors. Other Film News Hy the Photoplay Editor Sex Is at, one and the same time the blessing and the bane of drnmatlc expres sion. Treated understandlntfy, sympathetic and humanely. It motivates nnd makes vivid all sorts of stories. Used as nn Iron lever to pry up some flimsy, tawdry tale. It becomes moro offensUo than the padded five-reel "sweet" narrative or the footless rlapstlck affair. (Not tint all slapsticks aro footless by any means.) The presentation today of motion pictures baaed on lurid, overdrawn expositions of the relation of men and women In modern so e'ety Is not nearly as bad ns It was four or five years ago. Hut It does occur And the lesult, ninety times out of a hundred, Is a fearful bore Ono of tho photoplay houses yesterday displayed a film that hinged on such a relation. It was not es pecially Immoral or degrading Rut It was dull beyond all description. I.llto most of Its class, It didn't tako two chararters nnd work out their caluat'on dramatically. It started with an ethical question, nnd the outcome was a distortion nf life which hap pened to fit the prolut.'i w-llt which tho rcenarlo writer begin An excellent rule for producers (anil one that most of them hao adopted oluntarlly) Is: Never monkey with tlm sex buzzsnw unless you are confident you can cut out a piece of good artistic metal, w.thout letting any chips fly Into the fpectators' eyes.

Gatherings of odds and ends and the riff-raff stuff so often found at "special sales" are entirely foreign to our business. We're exceedingly particular in buying Canned Goods (as we are in everything else), and are anxious to have our customers show the same discrimi nation in dealing with us.- The fruits and vegetables included in this quick, three-day selling, are the output of reliable packers who thoroughly under stand THE CHILDS STORE require ments. Prices have largely advanced since we placed our orders, and an increasing upward tendency is all the time evident. The retail figures we're now quoting should offer unquestionable inducement for "stocking up" your pantry shelves before closing time on Saturday night, February 3d.
