JANE COWL SCREENS : WELL IN FIRST FILM f Spreading Dawn" Is Its Title. B8m Houston's Luff Themn of Farnum Picture CHAPLIN HAS A NEW ONE STANLEY "The Spreading Pawn." with Jane twi, JTom a story by lias lasll Kin. Directed by Larry Trimble. Uoldwyn, War has furnished another idea for the ecreen story. In this one, however,' loe motif rather than the martial theme- pre dominates. Based upon Basil King's serial Mory, which appeared In the Saturday Kvc rtUtg Post, the film play reveals the vis rallied chronicle of a diary. The Intro duction concerns a youth and maid of to '4ay who ask the girl's aunt for her con tent to their marriage. She tclla them that "there Is no love" and elves her diary to ' tho girl to read as n warning It Is the Events recorded In this record which fur nish the beautiful story of romance and Its culmination In "The Spreading Dawn ' Goldwvn pictures hao sponsored another rtctress for the screen drama. In tho person of Jane Cowl. Her work U Rood when It & considered that this Is her first appear ance before the motion-picture camera and there Is no audience to lend encouragement fo Jior work, ns Is the case vv ith her acting of spoken plays She screens well and Is not Camera shy. Florenco Billings, formerly of the Vltagraph company, Is a cap.ible sup porting player, contributing to the picture a mild type of "vampire ' role. Ormo C'al eJara Alls tho requirements of his role. Harry Stephenson. Alice Chapln, Helen Blair, Mabel Ballin, L'dlth McAlpln. Cecil "Owen, Harry Springer and lldmund Lovvo comprise the other members of tho com petent cast. j Beautiful photography of high quality Srtlstry makes this production stand out gainst the general run of program pic tures. The settings were carefully ar ranged to bring out the best effects This Is Indeed a production of the motion-picture studios that Is conspicuous for its delicate quality as a cameo A special and attractive feature of the Stanley's program was the musical con tribution thjb excellent oichestra under Harry Meyer and lbert Wano as alter nate direct tb Tho numbers played In cluded Tschalkowsky's stirring "Marcne JBIave"' and buntiuna imm Jacobis 'Kvbll" ' ARCADIA "The Conqueror," with William Farnum. Adapted by it A. Walsh from a story based on tho life of Sim Huustnn h Htnry Chrlsteen Warnack. Directed by It A Walsh. If this admirable film play directs the Attention of Americans toward some of tho most stirring and romantic chapters in their history. Its presentation will havo been thoroughly Justified. General Sam Houston, brother" of the Cherokees. Governor of Tennessee, liberator of Texas, President of Texas, Senator from Texas, Governor of that State and finally faithful to the L'nlon in Its hour of peril, Is a Homeric figure in pur annals. Authentic episodes in his career almost strain one's sense of probability Vet they are verified by trustworthy records and accounts of eye witnesses Moving-picture patrons demand sentiment jftl tales, and naturally therefore tho makers of "The Conqueror" have emphasized those portions of Sam Houston's life that con cern his courtship of and still unexplained separation from the beautiful and aristo cratic Eliza Allen, of Nashville. Tho mjs tery of that drama has never been fully cleared up. Tho scenario treats ery freely and depicts a reconciliation, which Is without historical basis. As a matter of "jact, Houston subsequently married ngaln, nd happily. His second bride was Mar- faret Lea, of Alabama. The film betrays expert direction and the scenes of Houston's life among the Indians, it his rise to Tennesseean and Texan fame jund of his victory of San Jacinto, which delivered the Lone Star State from tho Mex ican yoke, are lvld and fascinating. The omission of tho picturesque Santa Ana as a screen personage Is rather regrettable Tho life of that wily Mexican dictator was tully as crowded with melodrama as his doughty opponent's - William Farnum la forceful and sincere a the reckless, erratic and yet epic hero. "Bill" Hart would have been Ideally fitted Jot; the role. Mr. Farnum impresses one as the second best selection. Jewel Carmen, as Eliza Allen, Is comely and appealing. All the auxiliary parts are well handled The photography Is often and almost always highly effective. Patronage of "Tho Con jiueror" richly restores confidence In the passionate energy of the American spirit. PALACE "The Submarine Eye," mails hy tho Williamson Brothers Written and directed by C M. Williamson.

He has done good work with lhla production, which Is a delightful omody supplying urotner ueorge an op portunity to dtsplay his original methods comedy. It is a story of the motion Jtictures and a rich young man who Is sent to South America by his father to guard a shipment of munitions. A real revolution la in progress at the port where tney arrive, but Walsh thinks It is only the action for '. motion picture, lie soon finds, however, .that it la real and then the Federal troops Vre sent for. Good old movie stud that, and it Is kept Interesting by Its careful .handling. Wanda Petit has the part as ''the young glr1 whom Walsh thinks is a Motion-picture actress.

If you havo disliked the actions of this youthful purveyor of screen fun In the past because of Its slapsttck qualities, then In fairness to his efforts In expert comedy you should foo him in this release.

Experience has certainly benefited tho Pallas picture makers, as Is evidenced in their latest release featuring Vivian Mar tin. There has been a steady Increase In the quality of their studio output until now their products nre equal to the other manu facturers upon tho Paramount program. Vivian Martin has a winsome personality that radiates upon tho screen and her ef forts to portray the character of a boy are well done She possesses several little man nerisms that look well before tho camera but become rather tiresome when kept up Uo long. Her supporting cast could havo been Improved, but Its work was fair. Tho story deals with a BllIlkln-llKc statuette made by Miss Martin and her self-sacrificing efforts to give a poor friend the credit for Its conception. Paul Willis Is the newsboy waif who shares his home, a piano box, with Miss Martin. Others In tho cast are Louise Harris, Mary Mersch, Vera Lewis, James Nelll and Charles West.
