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.
Douglas Fairbanks, who 13 now "on I. Is

viewpoint. '

You may set your mind entirely at
ease, and take it for granted that these
are all Freshly Canned and Absolutely
Dependable Goods. 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. These are exceptional
offerings; and you surely know neglected
opportunities will come home to roost.
