COHSTANTINE STRIVES FOR PEOPLES' FAVOR; SOUGHT BY SOCIETY
. ' (By Associated Press) ATHENS, Jan. 29. King Constan1i ne and all the members of the Greek Royal family, now again in Athens, are leaving nothing undone to win favor with the people. 'On the. other hand, members of a section of the upper class of society (the so-called lion hunters) are doing everything In their power to obtain admittance into royal -circle. The Venizellsts, to whatever class of society they belong,' regard, JCing Constantirie as a selfish individual who would sacrifice the Interests of Greece to satisfy his own ambitions. - - The King's several brothers are also heartily disliked in Venizelist circles for they nver miss an opportunity for making-disparaging remarks about the Cretan -statesman, thanks to whose astute diplomacy Greek territory was extended to its present frontiers. Mme. Aspasia Manos, the morganatic widow of the late King Alexander, continues to attract general attention in Athens. She now lives by herself in a rather modest dwelling in the Kiphissia Avenue. The Princes and Princesses who preceded King Constantine and Queen Sophie to Athens rather looked upon Mme. Manos as an intruder, and gave her the cold shoulder. Queen Sophie's motherly instincts, however, got the best of royal blood prejudices and she received her morganatic daughter-in-law with open firms . Alexander was Queen Sophie's favorite son. Queen Sophio has given orders for the employment "of an English firstclaps nurse in preparation for the birth of Mme. Mano's child.

Norwegian Ship Returns To Home Port After 75 Days TSy Associated Press) QCEENSTOWN, Jan. 29. Tho hardships of crossing the Atlantic in a
Failing vessel in mid-winter were!
shown by the experience of the Norwegian bark Sirdal, which gave up the attempt after spending 75 days at sea and has returned to this port with her bulwarks stove in, and much of her canvas in rags. Most of her crew were either ill or worn out by fatigue and exposure. Neither vessel nor men were fit for further conflict with angry seas. The Sirdal left Christianssand as far back as Oct. 22, bound for Barbados and carrying only ballast. Almost "from the start she encountered heavy westernly gales but made her way as far west as mid-Atlantic whence she was driven north to the coast of Labrador and then almost over to Iceland. Several times she was thrown on her beam ends, her decks were incessantly swept by seas, cabins flooded and riggings so strain
ed that it was feared the masts would .
go. One man fell from aloft in a gale and was killed.
PALACE The most absorbing and thrilling Rex Beach story ever screened, "Heart of the Sunset,' is a melodramatic romance of the great American Southwest in the not far gone days when Uncle Sam, angered almost beyond patience, stepped into Vera Cruz and with a mighty fleet of dreadnoughts to back him up. took nagging Mexico by the back of the neck and shook it until its teeth chattered. "Heart of the Sunset," called Rex Beach's most powerful story, is not a tale of warfare. Rather is it a fascinating romance of the borderland woven, with that skill for which the author is famous, around the lives and love of two creatures widely separated by station and environment Alaire Austin, beautifully wretched wife, in time the widow, of a weulthy and dissolute young ranch owner, and Dave Law, Texas ranger and two-gun man. In "Heart of the Sunset" you see the daring Texas rangers, disregarding international law in just fury at the depredations of the revolutionoVifts, sweeping into Mexico in an officially unauthorized invasion of a foreign land. Imagine the plight of a beautiful woman, just widowed by the treacherous act of a bandit leader's hired assassin, trapped in the rebel chief's headquarters in the fastness of Mexico's sand and cactus and commanded on pain of death to marry her captor at once. These are but a few of the breathtaing hear throbs in "Heart of the Sunset," to be the attraction at the Palace Theatre beginning Sunday. WASHINGTON Feminism is the underlying theme of "The Restless Sex," the picture attraction at the Washington Theatre Saturday. However, the photoplay,
which is the film version of Robert
W. Chambers' recent novel of the same j
name, has nothing to do with suffrage.
; It treats of the woman who, having a
taste of independence, wishes to become more than merely a wife and to attain a place for herself in the world of art and letters. Marion Davies, - the pretty young star, plays the role of the heroine, an impetuous society girl. Her love of excitement leads her away from the man she loves into an unfortunate marriage but later true romance asserts itself and the ending is a happy one. Ralph Kellard and Carlyle Blackwell have the leading male parts. "The Restless Sex" has been filmed upon an unusually elaborate scale, with Robert Z. Leonard as the director. A ball-
I room scene in which over six hundred
people take part, a thrilling automobile accident, and scenes in a millionaire mountain camp are features. The picture was made by Cosmopolitan Productions, producers of "Humoresque," and is a Paramount release. MURRETTE Next week's feature attraction at
the Murrette is "The Truth About)
Wing Pinero's brilliant stage play, "The Profligate." It is a Whitman Bennett production release through First National and has an exceptionally well balanced cast headed by May McAvoy. It deals in a startlingly interesting way with the age-old problem of how a man before marriage cannot have his fling without the danger of his escapades confronting him after marriage. The denouement of the play is perhaps as thrilling a climax as ever screened in a society drama. H. E. Herbert plays Dunstan Renshaw; a wealthy bachelor who is supposedly typical of his class. He is not vicious, merely worldly. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE. What is purported to be one of the most diversified acts on the vaudeville stage today will headline the bill at tho Murray next week, opening Monday, matinee for three days. This is John F. Conroy and Sister Lillian in "Vaudeville's Paramount Pofing and Diving Spectacle." Aside from the diving and swimming feats they also introduce physical culture, posing, singing and dances. These accomplishments are greatly enhanced, by a display of a wealth of scenery, es
pecially gorgeous and artistic, the set for the diving scene being unusually beautiful. This act is a typical headline feature and is breaking house records at the Broadway theatre, Columbus, Ohio, this week. Larry Comer, the popular star who won fame In "A Knight for a Day," and "Miss Nobody, from Starland," will be on the mil with his offering which he terms "An Intimate Revue Soma Old, Some New." Comer is known as "The Beau Brummel of Songland," and wins the intimacy of the audience by requesting the nature of tne songs they would like to hear. As a recent partner on the big-time of Miss Emma Cams, which stamps him as a high-grade artist, vaudeville fans may be assured a real treat in his appearance here. Conroy and O'Donnell in their comedy skit, "The Parcel Postman." and Jean and Arthur Kelley in their novel athletic offering, "Fun in a Sporting Goods Store," will complete the bill, with Louise Lovely on the screen in "Partners of Fate," a drama of a young couple shipwrecked on an uninhabited island. The following is a brief synopsis of Weston's Models D' Art, headlining the bill opening Thursday for the last half, Consisting of two beautiful maids and a perfect specimen of the male species: In the glare of the lime light the figures stand out in bold relief as rigid as though they were carved from a solid piece of marble. The poses are held to such length that one begins to wonder if they are really poses and not the genuine article. It is not surprising that every "break" is the signal for bursts of vigorous applause, oethe has said that the highplause. Goethe has said that the highof appearance, to produce the illusion of a loftier reality', and the Three Westons have solved the problem to a nicety. Completing the bill is Basil Lynn and Howlana. a Keith standard comedy act entitled "The English Ctiappie and the American Lad." Weber, Beck
and Frazier, three clever young chaps who sing all the latest and exclusive songs, using their own piano accompaniment, and Jerry and ' Gretchen O'Mara, in their comedy diversion, "What Next?" The screen feature for the week end will be "Two Kinds of Love," a five-reel production of when the west was young good and young.
