SEE “THE END OF THE ROAD’ V At the Star Theater Next Friday, Oct. 24, 1:80 to 11 P- M. The Star theater is to show Friday the most daring film ever produced, a picture which is a revelation of sex and of the terrible menace constituted by ignorance and recklessness in sex relations. The picture, "The End of the Road,” has won the endorsement of organized and individual welfare workers, of press and tpulpit, for the thorough manner in which it covers the subject of sex and for the artistry which delivers the warning without recourse to the sordid or vulgar. Richard Bennett, who violated stage traditions in putting on the boards “Damaged Goods,” plays the lead In “The End of the Road.” Opposite him) plays a new film star, Claire Adams, who has been called the most beautiful girl in the pictures. It is said she is to be starred in a picture now under way. A strong company supports them in “The End of the Road,” which, in brief, shows the road of life as traveled by two girls, the one instructed in sex facts by a wise mother, the other permitted to gain her knowledge; at perverted sources. The latter finds misefy, the other happiness “at the end of the road.” The picture Is of shocking in some of its scenes, withal without sordidness, that children under 14 are not permitted to see It except in company of their parents, or bearing their parents’ consent. The picture will be shown from 1:30 to 11 o’clock.—\dvt. Country Sorghum at ROWLES & PARKER’S. 020
