GARLIC MAY MAKE A HUSBAND JEALOUS # 'Tea for Three "Proves That There Sweeter Things on Ones Breath Than Italian "Perfume” When Hubby Recognizes the Brand. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN Garlic is garlic the world over and nothing will change it, not even a Burbank. An interesting playwright has discovered that even innocent garlic may become dangerous.
You will become acquainted with the wrong use of garlic when you
see Aileen Pringle, Lew Cody, and Owen Moore in “Tea for Three,” a movie version of the stage play. Lew in this story is cast as the jealous husband of Aileen and Owen Moore is cast as the lad, who likes both Lew and Aileen, but he decides to cure Lew, or rather the character he plays, of being

Lew Cody
low down jealous. Aileen tells Lew on returning home about tea time one afternoon that he mustn’t kiss her because she had garlic for lunch. She then explains her absence from home by stating that she had been shopping with Ethel. Now Lew knew that Ethel was in Boston. About that time, Moore, the joy killer in Lew’s life, arrives for tea. As Moore comes into the room he offers Lew a breath-killer and explained that he had garlic for lunch. Now, Lew was a good business man and he knew that one garlic breath plus another garlic breath made two and he thought it strange that both garlic performed luncheon breaths should be housed under the same roof for tea time. Garlic made Lew go mad with jealous and for a number of charmingly entertaining reels we see Moore actually during Lew of his jealousy. And “Tea for Three” ends with no murder or suicide; but with the three principals having tea for three and all friendly. Here is a play that was smart and rather ultra on the stage and the movie director has been very wise in keeping it smart and miles away from slapstick comedy. Both Cody and Moore display knowledge of smart farce, which has not been previously indicated. The three chief roles are all smart ones and the success of the picture depends upon the quality and quantity of this smartness. Miss Pringle gets into the swing

At the Apollo all week. m m MARRIED TROUBLES AIRED AT THE OHIO “No Place to Go,” now at the Ohio, is one of these comedy-farce things of marriage and the difficulties of getting married. Rather humorous in places and a bit senille in others. Keyden Eaton is in love with Sally Montgomery, but she wants a cave man or something of the sort. On a cruise that her mother engineers to the South Sea Islands these two run away 'to a desert island and try the primeval love stuff.
The mother says that to avoid scandal they ,must marry. That is, after they were found the next day. Their house is then and i vided against itself, but the outcome is that they are finally reconciled. Lloyd Hughes is the rather bored Heyden Eaton who wants Sally, but hates to go to so much trouble. He

portrays a very average young man. There is nothing of the unnatural in his acting. Sally Montgomery is made a more or less giddy type of girl. Mary Astor has tried to make her what the American girl is said ,to be, not so much what she really is. Comedy is introduced by Hallem Cooley as Ambrose Munn, who is into everything and tries to ape every one, and by Jed Prouty, who

is Uncle Edgar. Prouty, however, Is a foil for Cooley In his foolishness. TM6 whole story is a burlesque on American youths but some of the situations are very clever, even while impossible, or rather improbable. As theater this Is only fair, but as comedy-farce it is more than passable. At the Ohio this week.—(By the Observer). mum CLARA BOW STILL WAS “IT” Clara Dow is still exercising her “It,” this time in “Gee Your Man,” which is an adaption of a French farce. It isn’t as strong as “it,” and about on the same • par as “Hula,” although of a slightly different nature Clara Is cast as Nancy Worthingtpn, who is in Paris on a shopping tour and having a good time because her aunt is too ill to accompany her. Here she runs into a
Clara Bow
Nancy, seeing no reason why she shouldn’t marry him, arranges to be hurt in front of his place in the country and be kept over until time for the wedding. Be assured that the girl fixes things right, although many complications arise. It would seem that Miss Bow is trying to get just a little more risque than is the fashion of pictures today, but hesitates for some reason. As I said before, I don’t think that the work of the actress of “It’’ is quite up to the standard she has set, for in this kind of farce she has undertaken something out of her line. Charles Rogers Is one of the newer leading men, and at times you feel that he knows that his work is being subordinated, and as a consequence his work lags I feel that this is indeed fair theater. On the stage at the Circle. Grace Doro is doing some unusual numbers on the piano. Miss Doro has selected all novelty numbers, among which are the “Playing Piano” and the “Rejl, Red Robin.” This last is her feature and goes as a story.
Just a Few Doors North of Washington St.
Movie Verdict OHIO—“No Place to Go” is comedy farce dealing with a girl with too much romance and a man with too little. CIRCLE—CIara Bow again proves herself worthy of a place on the “Mounted Police” force in “Get Your Man.” INDIANA—An attempt has been made to equal "Underworld” in the making of “The Girl From Chicago.” The "girl” has good acting, but the theme is too conventional. APOLLO—The danger of garlic on the breath in the home is fully demonstrated in “Tea for Tlpree,” a smart little bit of Hftertainment.
This girl Is certainly an artist of syncopation. The Circle Orchestra plays an "Overture in Blue” which embodies several of the recent Blues numbers. Frank Nusbaum is the soloist and sings "My Blue Heaven,” which is the third number of the group. An overture of this sort is somewhat of a novelty and a pleasing diversion. The “Collegians,” news reels, and a color film, “Paris Creation,” showing the latest in women's clothes, are also on the program, as is a vitaphone presentation. At the Circle this week. (By the Observer.) m m m WICKED MEN ARE THESE BAD GANGSTERS The underworld story filled with gangsters and the like seems to be the coming fashion in movies for a while. The latest example to come our way is “The Girl From Chicago”
young Frenchman several times, and finally ends up by being locked in a wax-works museum over night. Charles Rogers is the Frenchman, although I don’t know the name of the man he was supposed to be. He has been engaged since childhood to a girl that his father picked out. But he falls hard for Nancy.
having the services of Conrad Nagel, looking like a gangster but really a crack detective; William Russell and Myma Loy This movie is not another "Underworld,” which I consider one of tie ten best movies of the last year. “The Girl From Chicago” is handicapped in its story by having the conventional
theme of a boy not Myma Loy really guilty, beiog sentenced to death by a jury for murder. He has been sentenced under ‘an assumed name so his family will not be disgraced. His sister comes to the big city and poses as “the Chicago girl” so as to solve the mystery of the murder and so save her brother

from death. She has a great helper in “Handsome Joe,” supposed to be a gangster, but who is really a great city detective. Mary, the girl, plays in the hands of big Steve Drummond and when Steve gets too wild, Handsome Joe is around to protect her in many usual ways. The showdown comes a few minutes before the innocent boy is going to be executed and Big Steve rather unguardedly admits his guilt when he discovers that the Chicago girl is a sister of the condemned boy. Police and gangsters stage a big gun battle, but virtue triumphs and our boy is saved. When I see such stories having Innocent men found guilty that It is about time to redeem the movie jury. 'Such situations handicap any group of movie actors. The acting in this movie is much better and more consistent than the story. William Russell does not make Big Steve as tough a rotten “egg" as he is supposed to be. Nagel is a little too good looking to be a gangster. Am rather interested in Myrna Loy as Mary Carlton. Here is a newcomer to the screen, who is good looking and has some talent along melodramatic lines. Still a little too stiff in behavior, but she will yield to movie direction, I believe. Time- will tell. The stage presentation is “Listen In,’*- with the stars coming out of a large loud speaker. Honors this week go to Dick Powell with the orchestra singing something about “Did you mean it when you said you loved me?" and Jerome Mann, who also stops the show by impersonating Ted Lewis, Eddie Leonard and Pat Rooneyy Charlie Davis has a popular entertainer in Dick Powell.

Many a sore throat and cold can be remedied, before they be* come serious, by the systematic use of Listerine. Being antiseptic, it attacks disease-producing germs that lodge in the mouth and throat. For your health’s sake use it every day during sore throat weather. Lambert Pharmaeal Cos., St. Louis, Mo., U. S. A.
