Harry Beaumont directed the piece,
and he has given It the right tempo for
this sort of piny The n'ay uas acted
more on the farcical order, but In this

of a comedy drama and that Is much
t better. The story "herolies" a young

Will M lllrhev nrrnared tho scenario
and In doing bo 'ho had a difficult task,
because tho book proves much better
reading than -does the spectacle of the
characters on tho sllversheot. Charlos
Malgno directed tho piece, which re
quires monv "titles" to explain what
the author has done so well In his book
descriptions. Somehow they do not seem
to enrrv the Idea that Is Intended In
showing the subtleties and tbp meanings
of characters and episodes.
A young girl Is engarcd to marry a
wealthy man, and she Is also In love
with another man who Is a heavy
drinker. In fact, this latter person Is
one of a long family of Inebriates, and
It Is a question whether the girl will
marry for money or to reform the drunk,
ard. A battle of self nnd mind Is en
gaged In and finally the latter Is chosen,
although it must bo satd that the choos
Inp was not done until tho former was
killed In a right. In tho support arc

Held ; Huth Helms and Clarence Burton.

Is the question that Is solved on the
screen In n way that makes George
Broadhurst's story and play seem real
istic Klmer Harris scenarlzed It and
James Cruze. the former actor, directed.
In Bryant Washbum Is seen an unusual
comed'on, because he can develop tho
right sort of comedy rrom tne Bmauest
parts. He has Injected Just the right
amount of "slapstick" Into the role to
make It ludicrous.
A central figure Is a man who Is mar
ried for money nut ills wire does not

w hen he -eeks the aid of a friend a. num.

to tho town, who preaches against all
things sinful, Including cigarettes. There
Is a large meeting. In which the friend,
Jones, becomes Involved, but things are
straightened out wnen tne reiorrper is
shown to be an impostor. The lovo motif
Is not lost sight of and triumphs In the

George Lomalre Has tho Right

Lytic George Lemalre, who brcexes

the revue type of entertainment a little
of a lot of things, but not a lot of any
little thing, even costumes nnd they
were little enough, but not offensively
or obtrusively "naked." Variety and
speed marked hla entry Into the ranks
of revue producers together with taato
and discernment In Betting tho scenes,
two doxen In all, and In dresslne the
clever cast and good-looking chorus. In

For the first tlmo in recent seasons Bert

won a big welcome.
From blackface to grand opera was
ono of tho several transitions made In
the revue. Dorothy Jardon, late of the

songs which sho sane In n fine, well
managed voice, gave tho "Habanera'

Jardon dressed the rolo according to her

other conventions.

A paint job is
no better than
the painter's skill
Good materials count In a paint
Job, but unless they are applied
by skilled men, the work un
never stand the test of time
Wo use the best materla's, and
only Bkllled men with a syj.
tern of supervision that Insures
top-notch painting. That'?
why wo can point to G9 ear'
experience.

Busy Executives prefer to employ
Peirce-trained men rather than ttach
subordinates the fundamentals of busi
ness. Men and women who have thorough
training essentials are in demand. No
matter how sound a general education
you have, a course at Peirce School will
fit you better for a business career.
