This production marks the beginning of the 1821.-22 season for the Shuberts. The story concerns the emotional vortex that surrounds fonr extremely temperamental young people. Two of them, who manage an elocution studio, are engaged to be married, and live at the home of the girl's mother. The man is an extravagant, erratic fellow, who takes the love of his fiancee for granted. The girl is almost equally temperamental and being wholly in love with the young man la maddened by his casual, off-hand acceptance of her. To offset her exasperation she Introduces a female confidante into thp house, who immediately sets her cap for the casual young man To protect himself from her. the young man introduces a male confidante, whom he calls his affinity. From that time forward all fonr tempcramentalists so grate on each other and on the good-natured, 'tolerant mother, that the emotional outbursts rock vhe house to its foundations. But a stinging slap in the face brings about the surrender of the neurotic young woman and the awakening of love in the man. The cast includes I.ncile Watson, Adrienne Morrison, Norma Mitchell. Gertrude Purcell, Alexander Onslow. Brandon Peter*. Frank Dekum and Charles Warburton.

It looks like it will boa •access. according to all reports. Wray left the Walker company here several weeks ago to begin rehearsals in Now York. The play Is described as a comedy of mystery with the manner of the outcome never certain until the last curtain. The action of the plot centers about a deficit at a bank owned by several persons in the play, a man who really wants to be and a murder. These events take pla-e at a house party, which the president of the bank eives to the bank's directors: and from the time he tells of the deficit until the action of th° piece is over things happen so quickie and so mysteriously that the members of the house party are utterly flabbergasted, and ready to swear to and believe anything.

SCREEN REFLECTS BEAUTY OF LONGFELLOW’S POEM Pearl White Appears as Winter Ophelia—Olive Tell on View

The courtship of John Aldou and Priscilla in the old Pilgrim days is considered to be the first American love romance. Longfellow has endeared this romance to the world in his poem, “The Courtship of Miles Standish," and now the xnovle producer has adapted It as a screen entertainment. In seeing the movie version of the poem at the Ohio yesterday, it was evident to me that movie producers are passing up a lot of good material to be found in poetry. Just the facts of th* story is cracking good movie stuff and add to this the natural beauty of the early period, the result is a welcomed relief from the ordinary movie. For screen purposes the story is centered on the arrival of the Pilgrims and the command of Miles Standish to John Alden that he extend an offer of marriage to Priscilla for Standish. We ail know that Priscilla at the right timo said to Alden. “John, why don't you speak for yourself?" , Now do not get the impression that this a “high brow” movie because it is one of the most natural and sweet love stories ever filmed. Longfellow's beauty of composition and detail is felt as the story is revealed on the screen. The picture has been nicely east as Benjamin D. Sharpe is seen ns John Alden, the very bashful John: Margaret Shaw Is Priscilla and Sam J. Kyan plays the Standish role in a convincing fashion. The love scenes between John and Priscilla are fine examples in natural acting. Os course the average youth today is not nearly as shy as John was in the old Pilgrim days but most of us are very awkward and shy when it comes to putting the big question to a girl. Foor John's task was doubly difficult because be was not asking for himself. Opinion:—“The Courtship of Milos Standish" is an intelligent attempt of a movie producer to transplant the beauty of Longfellow's sweetest poem t“ "Nic screen. Every father and mother in Indianapolis owes it to themselves and their children to accompany their youngsters to the Ohio this week where the Longfellow ypicm is being revealed on the screen. On the same hill is the new Harold I.loyd comedy. "I Do." w hich upsft the summer box office records at the Ohio a short time ago. In this comedy, we have Lloyd in an original and funny role. Not to lie missed by those who are crying for clean and bright comedies. Miss Marjorie Edwards, who lias been with several successful musical comedies, win be cn the bill in a program of songs. I will have more to tell you about her later on in the week. W. I>. H. ANITA HAS A TEARFUL ROLE IN HER NEW MOVIE. Anita Stewart must love to suffer, sob and suffer some more. She has plenty of this sort of thing in a movie called “Playthings of Destiny." which is the featured offering at the Ciri-IJ. In the first part of the movie, she appealed to me as a sort of a winter Ophelia H who attempted to | % k pas* out of exjjjj istance in a blindA ing snow storm. iBUg but the story m a r'permitted |jg|A 4a*~ her tr live bePi ■ cause, you know, there lug be a story. Shakespear** s Ophelia j| was successful Id ' ,her attempt to end > ail of her woes but Anita's companion < role of suffering " '' o from love was not Anita Stewart. so successful. Anita paved the way by her attempt, to end it all for tons of more trouble and heartbreaks. The fault does not fall to Miss Stewart but. to the person who wrote the story. Everything has been sacrificed for dramatic and tearful climaxes. The result is that the star Is unable to make the role convincing at any time. Handicapped as she is by this Impossible story, Mis* Stewart battles to register (national acting which is much better than the story. The story suffers at times because the sub-titles often are not erfear. That is something I can not, nor will overlook in a movie. There is uo excuse fOT sub-titles which are not large enough to be read over an entire theater. You may be wild over Anita, but pity her because of poor vehicles. There wiU be many who will disagree with my opinion of this movie. Help yourself and have your own Idea. Every golf fan In the city would do well to witness the slow action movie, called “The Science of Golf,” in which an expert shows bow to make many plays. The camera has boon slow timed and the fan is abie to got a grand and glorious view of how a golf game should be played.

NEAR EAST STILL CALLS FOR HELP Armenian and Greek Plight Continues Appalling, Is Word. NEW TORK, Aug. 22.—1n a general i appeal to tho American people for further aid to Armenian and Greek war sufferers in the Levant, sent in a cable received today by Near East Relief, Nikolas, acting patriarch of the Greek Church in Constantinople, says thousands of refugees are looking toward the United States for help that cannot come from elsewhere. The patrlaoh’s cable followed word r+*oeived earlier in the day by tho relief organization from its representative in Constantinople that told of an increased .need for alii in Anatolia and Transcaucasia. According to this word the de. maud for help has been so great that thousands of children have been turned away from relief centers in Armenia and 1 Georgia because of limited funds and supplies. Relief oficials declared today I they are counting upon the appeal for I 5.000,000 bushels of grain to American j farmers to furnish sufficient food stuff i to carry over these war and starvation | victims through the winter. Following i is tho pathetic appeal from the patriarch: I “Peace has not yet come in this land. War is driving thousands of my children * from their homes and making them helpless wanderers Everywhere they a.-e stretching out their hands for help whlel I am powerless to give. Oh great ana generous Christian country, I beseech you to continue in this critical mom ;nt the aid which you have been giving my s children through tho Near East Keller. Thousands of grateful hearts in the East are praying for those of America who are making possible this wonderful lifesaving philanthrophy.” The Near East Relief also reported the receipt of word from Its representatives In Constantinople that the deportation of thousands of Armenians anil Greek inhabitants oi the Black Sea is being continued to Harpoot and other places where they are said to be arriving penniless and In acute need.
