Tolstoi called the story “The Living Corpse”—a drama of a map dead to the world, but tragically alive to the turmoil within his own
soul.
And this story, as “Redemption,’’ John Gilbert’s latest all-talking screen vehicle, which win be shown at Hill’s Indiana for four days starting Sunday, Sept. 14, is one of the finest pictures that the screen has seen in many a long
season.
“Redemption’’ sets a new mark for artistic achievement on the seveen, and provides Gilbert with a worthy successor tc “The Big
Parade.”
For the last half of the week, Mr. Hill has secured the great
“The Very

Dr. Benj. A. Osborne OUR COMMON HERITAGE One of mankind’s most precious gifts is the ability to recognize what is perfect and admire it. We admire the glowing skin, the clear eyes, the energy and vibrant personality of a jjprfectly healthy man or woman, the vl'.allty and abundant promise that Jie in a perfectly healthy child. Our recognition and admiration of health Is spontaneous and natural, given freely to something w our selves desire, for health is ou cdftmon heritage, one of our natural rights and certainly the mi wonderful thing that we inherit from Mother Nature. There is no signt under heaven blinder than the person who has lost this confidence in Nature’s generosity. If people will think of health less as a privilege and more as a right — if they will look at it as a normal condition to which they are entitled and which Nature intended them to - enjoy— then they will suspect how foolish it is for moat of us not to be perfectly well and sound and able to take what belongs to us out of life
and living.
