"Duley" furnishes Constance with just the type of play the public de. mands of her. Much research and thought was given to selection of | stories for her popular Joseph M. | 8chenck star because it was realized | that close bond of sympathy exists | between Miss Talmadge and her | faithful followers. | That the production is an excell- | ent ome in every way is indicated by | ¢he carefully chosen cast and the | persons who produced ft. Sidney | Franklin directed "Duley" from the | continuity by Anita Loos and John | Emerson. The entire resources of the | Schenck organization were played at | Mr. Frankiin's disposal during the making of "Duley" and no efforts were spared to make this comedy surpass Connie's past achievements. It is a First National picture. Others in the cast are Jack Mul- hall, Claude Gillingwater, May Wil- son, Johnny Harron, Anne Cornwall, Frederick Esnrelton, Andre de Ber- anger, Gilbert Douglass and Milla Davenport. "THE LONELY ROAD" ATTRACTION AT STRAND FIRST HALF OF WEEK. "The Lonely Road" is attractive in many ways. It certainly attracts the fair sex, who are anxious to see Katherine MacDonald in the marvel- lous gowns she wears in this strong film drama. They like to study Ka- therine for beauty hints, too. Or- ville Caldwell, the leading man, is another source of attraction, for he also is famed for good looks. Still, when all is said and done, the story is the thing. And "The Lonely Road" is a strong story. It is a study in contrasts. the contrasts be- ing two different conceptions of life. cherished by different types of wo- manhood. The theme is worked oat with naturalness and power, and the woman who treads "the lonely road" strengthens her hold on the audience as the tale unfolds. \The production is beautiful, and its\ap- peal to the artistic sense is not the least of its attractions. Married folks should all see it, for it deals with some of the most vital problems of modern wedded life, problems that confront twentieth century folks at every turn. The Strand comedy is Dorothy Devore in "Navy Blues," and at the risk of being criticised for pun- ning we must affirm that it is a real cure for the "blues." The Pathe Review, as usual, has an appeal and charm of its own. BOY'S FOOT FRACTURED WHER JUMPIG ON AUTO Donald O'Brien; Victoria St., Victim of an Unfortunate Accident. Donald O'Brien, son of Mr. and Mrs. O'Brien, who reside at 48 Vic- toria street, suffered a compound fracture of the foot when he attempt- ed to jump on the automobile driven by Eugene Dennee, at the corner of Princess and Division street on Mon- day at noon. Mr. Dennee, who was driving up Princess street, stopped for the pur- pose of giving a couple of boys a drive home. The automobile . had just started, when young O'Brien came running across the road and attempted to get on the running board of the car. It is thought that he must have struck his ankle on the edge of the board with such a force that the bone was hroken. It was stated by people who were neaphy that the auto did not pass over the boy's foot. The brother of the injured lad and a number of citizens, who were near when the accident occurred, stated that Mr. Dennee was in no way responsible for the accident. The automobile was hardly moving when the boy attempted to jump on the running board. The lad was taken to the Hotel Dien hospital where he was attended to by Dr. Quigley. L. T. B.

Coach Billy Hughes Is popular with the Tricolor players. He is gett- ing results, and expects that the team will reach the top of its form in the next two weeks. Queen's Athletes at Work. Some surprises will be sprung when the Queen's athletes visit the Varsity Stadium at the forthcoming intercollegiate games day. Every afternoon now Coach Bews entertains the track squad at his palatial ° quarters on 'Cinder Boule- vard," and his guests never number less than twenty! Sprinters, distance men, pumpers, discus throwers, shot put heavers, are all out in quantity and in quality! Among the first- named the most prominent is Smith, '"'the medical cxpress train," who is doing the century and the 220 in im- pressive time. He has been elected captain of this year's squad. In the high jump, Hunter, late of Ham- ilton, is the man on whom Queen's hopes rest. Some of his performanc- es have been really amazing.

McGraw Grooming Scott, McQuillan and Nehf Four pitching veterans--all form. er members of the Boston Braves-- are being gnoomed carefully by Man- ager McGraw, of the world's champ- fon Giants, to match speed and cur- ves with the all-star Yankee array in the world's series that begins next Wednesday. Upon them McGraw pins much of his hope for a third succes- sive world's championship. The quartette are Jack Scott, twirling hero of the Giant triumph last year; Silent John Watson, 1923 addition to the staff; Hugh Mc- Quillan, whose acquisition last sea- son helped turn the pennant tide in favor of the Giants; and Art Neh, diminutive southpaw star. Neht, Scott and McQuillan ae- counted for three of the 1922 ser. les victories over the Yankees, while Nehf twirled the deciding victory for the McGrawmen in the eighth game of the 1922 classic. On paper, the Yankee mainstays-- Jones, Hoyt, Bush, Pennock, and Shawkey -- outclass the Giant moundsmen, just as they did a year ago, but memories of the 1922 re- versal, when the Giant staff came through with flying colors, while their rivals cracked, have prompted the belief that McGraw may again round his squad into winning con dition.
