W42; Xi, 'ill?,, a"; 't,'r i The remarkable situation comes about because a socity girl who is writing a crook play wishes to study crooks at close range. She appeals to a young lawyer friend, who oblieingly hunts up a bunch of crooks and asks them to her house party. They be- lieve she' is "one of them" and they act accordingly, causing little less than civil war in the aristocratic suburb l and incidentally bringing the girl and her parents near everlasting disgrace. When the natives rebel and the Englishmen ride but to suppress the uprising, Stair returns and reports that the rest of the expedition has been wiped oilt, and that it was Kim’s dying request that his fiancee marry Stair. This she does, only to learn later that her husband is a. coward and a deceiver, Stairs. time tor the great decision comes when they hear of Kim’s being held captive by a band of Kaffirs in the neighborhood, and despite the tact that Mary has de~ aided to leave him, Btair's irtntsterapast- Illness itt brought 01% by “Cue chance to pave ssuenowittmshrtran He pulls Iimselt together and does Ir,?

J.OEeGrane, James Dent, Huntley" Gordon, Cecil Chichester, Anders Ran- ftolf, George O’Donnell, John T. Wade 'ahd James Gaylore. The sentence describes an absorb-. ingly interesting and dramatic situa- tion that confronts Maurice Stair, the young English resident commissioner at the outlying post where Mary Saurs in (Clara Kimball Young) comes to Visit her brother. Stair falls 'in love with Mary; she, however, has no eyes for any one except Major Anthony Kinsella, familiarly called “Kim." the leader of the garrison forces. Miss Leslie is cast as Queen of the Crooks, who are honored house party guests in a neighborhood of million- aires, and the action centres about what she does, not alone to material; goods she happens across, but to the affections of the staid citizens who take her for a college girl rather than the "sliekest confidence woman this side of the Atlantic." ' Miss Ward, in this seven-reel Pathe speéial has done some of the most appealingly emotional work in her entire career on the stage and the screen. It will be shown at the Oak- wood, July 21/22 and 23. Three souls in the. iron grip of Hidden: circumstance-a simple, de- voted old woman; a. man who has gained worldly eminence, despite "the skeleton in the closet;" and a girl handicapped by adverse circumstan- Cer--. each telling the innermost se- cret of a bitter experience, and even- tually finding a. way' to face life with renewed courage. Here is chrystalliz- ed, the big emotional spirit of "Com- mon Clay," A. H. Wdods' screen presentation of the Harvard prize play by Cleves Kinkead, and teatur- ing Fannie “lard. And that it is a play with a real punch is attested by the fact that it ran for a solid year on the New York stage and Was played, tor three years following by six com- panies, in every city of the United States and Canada, during which time it is estimated that more than tive million persons witnessed it. "To every man once in-his life comes the decision between supreme right and intolerable wrong." ' This sentence is from Cynthia Stoekley's famous novel, "The Claw," which has been pictul'ized by Charles E. Whit- taker, and will be the feature attrac- tion at the Codnaught July 18th and 19th. It is the latest Select Picture made by Clara Kimball Young and her own company. A remarkably clever' comedy drama, filled with surprises and with sustain- ed mystery element, is "Too Many Crooks," the Gladys Leslie picture, which ,will be seen at the Oakwood on July 17, 18 and 19. . “TOO MANY CROOKS” He steals everything he can in his {efforts to aid the girl. He does noth- ing actually dishonorable, however. In the end he rescues her from almost certain death, after the Germans have abducted her with a view to taking her to Germany on a submarine. For thrills this picture is about the best in which Walsh has appeared. and in ad- dition combines patriotism with a reai, live American story. Walsh is seen in an amazing series of stunts. all of which tend to break up a, desperate gang of enemy secret agent who have been using the daugh- ter of an American Intelligence. Offi- cer as their dupe. Suffering trom the mortal injury popularly known as a "broken nose," caused by the arrival of a tiny mite of humanity in their home, little Jane and Katherine decided that their only resource was to join the army and take it' out of the Germans. When the, big, good-natured sergeant at the recruiting office heard the children's tale of woe and saw their determined, tear-stained faces, his heart went out to them. So he accompanied them back home, and brought about a bet- ter understanding between the ne- glected kids and their absorbed par- ents. _ This humanly interesting scene, had for its setting the good ship Recruit, located in Union Square, New York. When it'Was being screened a vast throng gathered and the little. stars, Jane and Katherine Lee, were auick to take advantage of the opportunity by, staging an impromptu, enthusiastic enlistment rally. The number of vol- unteers who were registered was highly satisfactory to the officers of the Recruit. This interesting episode forms a. part of the Lee children's latest teathre, "Swat the Spy'." “LUCK AND PLUCK” ' AT CONNAUGHT, JULY 22, 23 PAGE SIX MOVIE PROGRAMS FOR THIS WEEK “WHAT!

The camera follows the course of production from the time the farmer begins cultivating his paddy field un- til the rice crop is harvested.
