THE 4MISSING HUSBAi FRANCE, IS F Dominating Figure Is Que Marries Army Offi Squelche "Missing Husnands," the French pho- | topbiv production from the novel "L'Atlantlcie," by Pierre Benolt. which Metro imported and will set orr at tne criterion this afternoon, la a feminine "Shell;." After the original story by this name and "The Sheik's Wife" It was but to be expected that in the natural feministic march of events film producers would swing around to a woman's version of the desert caveman methods. The French, as usual, are In the van, as might be expected in matters erotic. The feminine protagonist in this makes the arid sand wastes warmer than ever for men by kidnaping them. She is queen of the lost kingdom of Atlantis, which has proven more valuable than It It were In existence to-day as a stamping ground for romanticists. Fortunately, while occasional superb views of the place are revealed, it is the amatory side of the story that is stressed, so that the spectator Is delivered from his premonitory qualms that he was in for another "Mistress of the World." Male explorers In the Sahara who stumble upon her hidden kingdom are married out of hand by Queai Antinea, supposed descendant of Neptune and Clito, who thus has an easy set rule for disposing of all the intruders. All the intruders seem to be military omcers? apparently the Queen has a weakness for them?but even their martial front can't save them. Married and Promptly Sqarlrhril. They are .married and promptly squelched. For the Queen has a way of speedily forgetting her current husband and then leaving him to commit suicide or go Insane, as he prefers. Their dead bodies are turned to golden statues by a secret process, and placed In a most impressive red marble hall?apparently the i fickle Queen, while quickly growing old. ! likes to preserve mementoes of her various affairs. Presently come a pair of French officers from Algiers, whose rivalry in her favor leads to a tragedy which, whilt gruesome, has the merit of being new. The thought that no good might come of their meeting the Queen might easily have been inspired in the soldiers' minds, because after ail the lustrous adjectives that had been heaped upon her beauty by tlie desert folk, she hardly turned out to be up to sample. After the spec! tator has been led to expect some one 1 overpoweringly alluring, a cross between Pola Negri and Dagny Servaes, he is shown a Queen more like an overdone : prima donna. The way in which she tosseu on nusDanas one aner auouiei j heightened the resemblance to some COLLEGE EDITORS CONVENE IN ITHACA Dr. Farrand, President of Cornell, Extends Greeting.

NEW YORK HERALD, yds; film from -eminine 'sheik1 ien of Lost Atlantis, Who cers and Promptly is Them. I prima donnaa. Still, one of the officers went right ahead and fell madly in love I with her. possibly by an effort of will. A touch of "Tiiais" is introduced here when the other officer, remembering i celibate vows he has taken in prepara| lion for the priesthood, repulses the ex' tremcly overt advances of Aiitiuea, be| side when "The Sheik" seems like a ' high schor 1 boy. Of course she falls in | love with him?such Is ever the way in i fiction?Just because he will have none i of her, though her fierce hatred of him ; when he rejects^ her is shown with-the ' abruptness of a sandstorm. It is a nice , <iuestion whether American audiences will be enraptured by a Queen with | such a peculiar and ferocious libido, but j it lias been most appropriately placed : amid this fragment of an ancient and warped civilisation, which leads one almost to give thanks that the rest of Atlantis did si' 'i out of sight. Scenery la Maanlflclent. The scenery is magnificent and most beautifully enfolded in the story?indeed. even in Bruce scenics landscapes and settings have never been so entrancingly dramatized. For the first part of the picture certrfinly the towering canyons, weird caves and dim labyrinthine passages lend a most sustaining air of mystery to the picture, so that they bring a chill even- to the Sahara. The acting is generally wdll directed, though occasionally convulsive, especially with the Queen, who sometimes forgets graces for simple "vamp" effectiveness. Stacia N'aplerkow ska. who plays this role. Is voluptuously robust and every time she leaned over to strike a gong one could fancy her groaning. She was occasionally regal and seductive In half lights, but always jn u Parisian boulevard fashion. She rolled like a ship in a gale at times. . The best acting was done by the men. with Jean Angelo a very proper figure of a man as the monastic officer, who insisted on keeping his coat on before a lady in the hottest weather. Georges Melchior was excellent 93 thq lover who escaped only to return to the siren?an ending. Incidentally, that was so obviously anticipated early In the story that It became a "plant." An Arab guide contributed a natural bit of acting, and so did a camel who died in a most casual manner. "Missing Husbands" is a deceptive title, as thev become husbands first and then ar-> missing after the Queen turns the ful| i candlepower of her eyes on them. It is the best French picture that has come this way in a long time?so much better than its precursors as to make them 1 seem like French pastry.
