furnishes a new Idea In screen stories.
Those who have read W. B. Maxwell's
novel of the same name will instantly
realize in the announcement of the
picturized version an entertainment
fraught with not only the greatest
possibilities in the matter of drama
tic excellence, but in daring, in bold
ness and startling discussion.
And such is the portraiture that
Lionel Barrymore contributes to tho
cinema in the role of the principal
character In this stirring narrative.
And in every scene is he ably assisted
by the wonderful supporting fast
which First National has furnished
Ijim. Mae McAvoy, Roris Rankin and
H. Cooper Cliffe each have wonderful
roles which they register in wonder
ful style.
The story of the drama Is one of a
William Dale, a man of uncontroll
able passion and a terrible temper.
He has made his way in the world
solely through a dominating spirit,
but when he allows his anger to get
the better of him on a government
position, it is then that he meets the
crisis. But for his wife he would
have been ruined financially. The
sacrifice she made, one which the
husband when he learned it was not
willing to forgive, but on the contrary
he sought the man and put him to
death. Always there stood between
the man and his wife the charge of
infidelity. Cruel as it was, he was
uncompromising. But he still failed
to see the faults in himself, and when
in later years there comes into his life
a beautiful young girl, he realizes
that in this girl he faced the same
charge, he was unable to forgive in
his wife. The age-old battle in man's
heart, fealty to one woman, or the
unleashing of the primitive love in
stincts one man to one woman,' or
the resignation to unrestrained pas
sion. The man is torn between- the
forces of life, he seeks the answer,
sends the girl away to work out the
problem alone, and in this phase of
the story Lionel Barrymore brings to
the role without question the finest
exhibition of emotional registration
in his entre career ether on the stage
or screen.
Tomorrow starts the engagement of
"Don't Tell Everything," the Para
mount special attraction starring
Wallace Keid, Gloria Swanson anu
Elliott Dexter.
"Tho SDeed Girl" at Columbia
Coming direct from a three week
run at the Kinema in Los Angeles,
Rebe Daniels' latest picture, "The
Speed Girl." showing today and to
morrow at Mauk's Columbia theater,
is one of tho peppiest, jazziest com
edies that Bebe has made. In "The
Speed Girl" Miss Daniels portrays
the part of a mot'on picture star,
and many of the scenes in the pic
ture include shots of the Realart stu
dio which are never ordinarily caught
by the camera. The director, assist

ported by Walter Iliers, who is fast
coming into his own as a comedian
of the first class. Fat and happy,
with a winsome baby smile, he is
sure to ingratiate himself Into the
hearts of his audiences-
"The Speed Girl" is directly based
on Miss Daniels' 10 days imprison
ment in the Santa Ana jail on the
charge of speeding, and pokes a great
amount of fun. in a mild way. at the
judge who sentenced her to durance

cil of Los Angeles made an un
successful attempt to stop the show
ing of the picture in Los Angeles.
The Columbia theater orchestra Is
becoming more and more a feature
of this populir playhouse's programs,
the attention tnat Director Barlow
is giving in arranging his settings
is evident in the way in which the
music corresponds to the action in
the film. Today's musical setting
is alone wor'H the price of admis
sion, as It ranges from popular to
clnssical. A Hall Room Boy's com

Educational Weekly are the aug
menting features.
The Frolic
The doughnut dance. It's the one
topic of conversation among patrons
of the Frolic. It is scheduled for Mon
day night and is bound to prove one
of most highly amusing, as well as
one of most unusually novel affairs
yet staged by this club, the recog
nized leaders of dance innovations.
The doughnut dance is something
that is going to afford no nd of fun
for the contestants as well as a
rousing round of laughter and fun
for the onlookers. The idea of the
doughnut dance is a modernization of
the old tournament days when
knights of old met at the tilt for su
premacy in catching the small rings
suspended from frames on points of
spears while riding at breakneck
speed asU'ida spirited chargers. In
the version which will be presented
at Frolic next Monday night dough
nuts will take the place of the little
rings and dancing will take place of
the chargers of the knights: the ring
ing of the doughnuts, that's the fun,
and that's what will determine the
winners. Prices will be offered the
contestan'.s. special music will be
played by Carrol Reed's symphony In
jazz; it is going to be a regular eve
ning, one that no dancer in the city
can offord to miss. There will be no
advance iff cither the admission
charge nor the charge for dancing
during the doughnut Jance next Mon
day evening. Nor will there be any
charge for reservations. FViHuing the
policy of the Fro' c. reservations are
to be had by simply holding a booth
by phone. Mayfield continues with his
dancing lessons and may be reached
either at the Frolic or at his resi
dence by calling S280.
