He was once ah opera singer in Euâ€" rope and has the honor of having been conductor at La_ Scale in Milan, a much. coveted. position. Gravini has piloted many of our now famous opera folk over the stepping stones to sucâ€" cess. ‘He was a dear friend of, the late Enrico Caruso and at one time was resarded as one ofâ€" TFaly‘s fare. cess. ‘He was a dear friend of, the late Enrico Caruso and at one time was regarded as one of Italy‘s foreâ€" most singers. _ As the result of his excellent perâ€" formance in that picture he was enâ€" gaged by Producer Sol Lesser to. be the old ‘clown of "Cireus Days." A little old gentleman whos knowâ€" ledge of the English language is limitâ€" ed indeed, Gravini was "discovered" by E. Mason Hopper and given the role of the old musician in "Daddy." JACKIE‘S OLD CLOWN IS ; NEW "FIND" FOR FILMS Cesare Gravini, the old clown who appears in support of Jackie Coogan in "Cireus Days," the First National picture that is delighting audiences at the Oakwood Theatre, is one of screendom‘s newest "finds." 5 The story opens against the . drab background, of _ New â€" York‘s . underâ€" world.. Here we meet "Bull" Morgan, strongâ€"fisted czar of a Rang of thieves; "Hard Boiled" Molly Malone, "Slippery Lddic" Foster and Jimmy Harrison, his companions.: Jimmy is a happyâ€"goâ€" lucky young crook, purely a product of environment. A thief because he knows nothing else. In contrast comes Rose Duncan, a beautiful young blind girl who is a violinist. Through a trick of fate she falls into the, hands. of "Bull Morgan, who seeks in her valuable ally, for his crooked schemes. Knowing nothâ€", ing of her enyironment, _ her gent‘le nature and the music from her violin cxert a strange influence over the unâ€" happy people of the neighborhood. â€"/It is a chapsody of the city streets played on human. hearts instead of violins and brass / and _ woodwinds. Xhis First National picture will be shown next Monday, Tuesday and Wedâ€" nesday, at the Beaver Theatre. J Edwin Carewe, the director, has called his newest creation "Mighty Lak‘ a Rose," a symphony of life.in the high and low places. It is an apt description, for its scenes blend like the changing movements of a great symphony. Like a great music master the director has played on the heart strings, he carries one to the heights with his _emotional moments, then, with a _ swift ch,a_vngwal of. mood, lets laughter creep into the comâ€" position. 1923 SEPTEMBER 1923 16 In the screen version of the famous novel, William Fox offers a striking picturization of the dynamic, the imâ€" passioned St. Elmo.. John Gilbert in the title role gives a performance that will make new friends for him. He fairly electrifies with the intensity of his work. Barbara La Marr as the girl who nearly riuns his lifeâ€"the languorâ€" ous, soft. spoken feminine Janusâ€"has a role that gives her ample opportunity to demonstrate her histrionic powers. Bessie Love, the winsome one, comâ€" pletes the triangle. Others in the cast include Warner Baxter, Nigel De Brulâ€" lier, and Lydia Knott. Jerome Storm directed the picture, which was adaptâ€" ed. by Jules Furthman. 5 "MIGHTY LAK‘ A ROSE" IS A MELODY OF LIFE PLAYED ON HEARY® STRINGS Notwithstanding the wide popularity of the novel, Augusta Evans refused all offers from stage producers tntil a few yearsâ€"before her death. On December 13, 1909, the stage crsion ‘of ‘St. Elmo," adapted by Willard Holcomb, opened in _ New York at the Academy of Music. Inâ€" teresting enough, William Fox, who ‘has made the screen version of, "St. Emo," now owns the Academy of Muâ€" sic, where "St. Elmo" rtan so long and so. suecessfully as a play. After its Broadway run, "St. Elmo" toured the country and was accepted enthusiastically by the theatre going public.. The Dook.swept the . country by storm andâ€" was the literary sensation of the day. ‘ Towns, steamboats and hotels were named after it and even "St. Elmo punch‘ became a popular heverage throughout the South. "St. Elmo" took an important part in the literary development of young Ameriâ€" cans. (It does to this day. The new William Fox offering, "St. Elmo," starring Johnâ€" Gilbert, now showing at the, Oakood Theatre for a threeâ€"day run, has a history that in romance . and thrillsâ€" even rivals the story ‘of the impassioned novel. Augusta® J2â€"Evans,. author of "St. Elmo"â€"and many othen popilar nove:s, published. this book in 1866. For it, she received the enormous sum of $25,â€" 000, and in 1866 $25,000 was a fabuâ€".

WESTON ’ "It may be," he said, "but I don‘t like the idea of your doing it." "Why?" f "Because it looks as ‘if you‘re ashamed of the name I gave you." "That‘s silly, Dave. If you take that attitudeâ€"" 2 "Might I ask you whether you wear your wedding ring all through the day? Or has that confounded aunt of yours persuaded you to put that on one side during ‘business hours‘ as well?" Ella might have told him with perfect truth that it had been her aunt‘s sitgâ€" gestion that she. should do so, but she â€"did not. "Iwear my welldinz ring all throuch But no, Dave didn‘t do anything. of the sort.. His brow was gloomy. "EHa!"‘ he said presently. *YÂ¥es."

It it was auntie‘s suggestion in the first placeâ€"and, of course, it is done quite often in business heuses, Dave, isn‘t 1to? After they had had. their meal, it would have suited her very well if Dave had drawn the armechair up to the fire, litâ€"his pipe, and invited her to snuggle down in the chair beside him. y They could have chatted and made plans then. She. would have liked him . to have shown appreciation of her sucâ€" ¢essâ€"_told her that she~ was a really wonderful little woman, and all that sort of thing. David rose to his feet. "Are you ready now.?" he asked. "Yes, quite." By the time. Ella got Home she was feeling pretty tired. She Nad fHot noâ€" ticed it so much during her first day at business, ‘but the fact that she had been kept on the go" all through the second day told on her. She was in a mood when she required careful treatment. â€" "Sorry to have kept you; old boy," she said, "but I couldn‘t miss that piece of business. Fancy, Dave! I‘ve booked a thirtyâ€"guinea order from those peoâ€" ple!"‘ It was half an hour later before Ella came in. David had been left on his own,. Ethel Day having to go to assist in the. shop,. So Ella took her maiden name while she was at work. She had never told him that. And, to his mind, this was significant.. Why should she do so? Where was themnecessity? Why should she want to give people the impression that she was not married? "He‘s furious," Ethel was thinking. "Berhaps they‘lt Itave a seené about it when they get home. Hope that he refuses to allow her to come out any more. . That‘s what L want. If she goes, I‘ll get her job all richt." Cléever Ethel! Right away she saw that David Eardley knew nothing whatâ€" ever about that. She notiGed his" inâ€" voluntary start and the way he frownâ€" ed. P "How has business been toâ€"day ?" David asked. He smiled pleasantly at the girl, deciding that he must not look gloomy and ill at ease hereâ€"he must not let Ella down. "Docs Miss BElizabeth, Darrell superâ€" intend personally, then?.â€" I thought she was leaving it to my wife."‘ Ethel smiled. lt "I was x'eferrin\g- to your wife, Mr. Eardley," she said. "She is Miss Dar rell hereâ€"during business ‘hoursâ€"â€"as you no doubt know." & "We have had a splendid day, Mr. Eardley," Ethel said. "Even better than yesterday. At least, I say ‘we," as if I had anything to do with the suceess. It is Miss Darrcll’s,g'hnrm of manner and her business ability that is causing. the success." She wias sharpâ€"eyed and sharpâ€"witted, and she was deciding that Ella Eardley had a husband who was young ~and good looking, but that he was not lookâ€" ing any too happy at the moment. Of course, standing out in the rain might possibly have accounted for that, â€"or it might have been something else. Miss Day had overheard Ella say to her. aunt that her husband was not at all pleased at the idea of her coming out to work. "It was her instructions, sir, that you should come into, the Iittle office by the fire." Ethel led the way in. She pushed the door to, so that they were shut off from the shop, and then made him 2 cnp of tean. * SOb,it‘s all right. T can é{;(;ii:lbollt until she‘s free." «‘Oh, please excuse me sir!"‘ she said. "Butâ€"nre you Mr. Eardley?" David looked round: : "Nes," he sud. "eâ€""" "Your wife asked me to keep an eye on the door when shke noticed it was raining. She may be some little time yet. And you are to step inside." There was a drizzling rain falling, and he had brought no umbrella. So he turned up the collar of his coat and was about to move away when the door opened and Ethel Day came out. There were several customers in the shop when. David Eardley turned up that evening. He glanced through the door, and saw his wife, smiling, radiant, conversing with two ladies and a genâ€" teman. _ It did not look as if she would be free for some time vet. She did not finish her sentence, but she was quite determined to: lose ‘no opportunity to better herself. This place was going to be a successâ€"a big suceess! And already Ethel Day had got one big ambitionâ€"to _ be managerâ€" egs here herself. If that opportuntiy every occurred, she would not let any thing stand in her way. s "She won‘t stop at a flirtation, . [‘ll bet, if the chance comes along," Ethel muttered to herscif.. "She‘s just that sortâ€"out for allk the admiration she can get. I wonder what sort of a fellow her husband is? T‘ll get a peep at him toâ€"night, and if there‘s anyâ€" thing that goes on here that he should knowâ€"whyâ€"" Ethel was quite convinced that but for Ella she would have been given the post of manageress herself. Miss Elizabeth had almost hinted as much. She, therefore, chose to consider that she had been robbed of her chance. But Ethel had no love for her‘ deep down in her heart. She hadâ€"no right to. be coming ont to work at all. She was a married woman, her place was in her own homeâ€"she had a husband to work for her. v (Continued From Last Week) rue Love I riumphed bave himâ€"she had preferred to marry David Eardley. It was said of Artlfur Leopold that he liad a "past." Ite might have marâ€" ried over and over again, but apparentâ€" ly. he preferred bachelorhood. The fact of the whole matter was, however, that the one girl he would have been. willing to marry would not ItE was he lhiad a ried over Iyhe nro miration ler. Just as her aunt went out a customer came in, and Arthur Leopold was left to himself for the next half hour to balance the financial matters. He had just finished this _wl.wn Ella came back again, and there was open adâ€" "As you wish, of course. Then may I say, Mrs. Eardley, that you are more beautful than ever? I don‘t wonâ€" der that this place is a successâ€"with such a charming little lady to 10bk after it." Ella turned to her aunt. "I have kept the receipts file ready," she said. "Weé are _ working fromi Friday to Friday, auntie, aren‘t we?" Elizabeth Darrell nodded. C Fhat‘s â€"it,"~she sail. . "Cou keep the takings in the safe, and Mr. Leâ€" apold will check tlhem, pay you, and give you the money to. pay your asâ€" sistants each Friday evening. I‘ve fot to be off now. I am leaving Mr. Leoâ€" pold here to ‘settle up." 1n "I would rather be called by my own name by those people with whom I am personally acquainted," Ella broke "I beg your patdonâ€"yet I thought that in business hHoursâ€"I understand your aunt==". Arthur Leopold had held out his hand, and when Ella put her own into it, he raised it to his Hips. She told herself that she could not be offended at that. He had spent much of his time on the Continent, And had acâ€" quired a manner of exaggerated poâ€" liteness. "It is agreat pleasure to meet you again, Miss Darrellâ€"‘ "Mrs. Eardley!‘ Ella: interrupted at once. advertising for this place, Ela, and he will go through the books each week, and make up your commission. That is why he has come this afternoon." "You know that, Mr. Leopold is a sort of partner of tmime, don‘t you?‘" her aunt said. "H€ is doing all the Friday had been the slackest day, and Blla was dlowe t the little office as they entered. She flushed a liftle as she saw the man. Miss Elizabeth â€"Darrek kept her friend, Arthir Leopold, out of Ella‘s sight until Friday afternoon. Then her little â€"motor car stopped outside the shop, and both of them go aut. But there was something perfectly forbidding about his stern face. «In all probability she would meet with a rebuff is she attempfed anything of the sort.. And, amyway, it would be a sign of weakness. â€" e ought to be the one to apologise to herâ€"â€"to take the first step towards @ reconciliation. He was the one to blamme!t. « The strained atmosphere . at hote, however, was kept up right throtigh the week. ElMla chose to consider that her husband was sulking. He spoke to herâ€"yes, but only formally. Ske was not the sort to keep up a quarrel herself, an‘d several times she was tempted to slip her arms around his neck, and bes him to be friendsâ€"not to be so foolish. / There was no doubt about it â€"this place had comie to stay. It was going to make big money. la to shed some tears, although se quickly dried them. It would never do to go into t§e shop with red eyes." There she had to‘ look her very bestâ€"as if she had not a, taore in the, world. "Dave‘s a perfect beast!"‘ se mutâ€" tered. "Heâ€"he doesn‘t even seem to be able to trust me! He ought to be proud of me, and instead he does nothâ€" tng but nag!" She forgot all about her domestic affairs at the shop, however. She threw herself heart and soul into the work, and there was another successful dayv. ‘"That‘s why you have gone Back to your maiden name. But you‘re still my wifeâ€"don‘t forget, that." Of course, David was wrong, and Ella was wrong. And, of course, they both‘ thought they. were very right! That‘s how these dommestic sqabbles alâ€" ways startâ€"that‘s how the rift in the lute keeps on widening and widening. Neither of them had got over it by the next day.. David went off egrly. He slammed the door, and did not say goodâ€"bye to his wife=â€"â€"which caused Elâ€" Lc You need of go on telling me," glye said, "I teM you.quite frankly that I‘m tired of your ‘objections." You‘ve done nothing but object all along. Last night you tried,to make me miserâ€" ableâ€"toâ€"night you are trying to do the sAme. Really, Dave, you‘re a posiâ€" tive. dog in ‘the manger. You can‘t carn money yourself, and. you object to my earhing it. You‘re jealousof your own wife! I bore it last nmightâ€" I humored‘ you; but, I‘m not going on‘ with it! If â€"if you treat me like this, I shan‘t come back in the eveniings, that‘s all. (I can always go to auntie‘s and have some dinnér, and that‘s what I shall do." ‘"‘That‘s probably what you‘intendzto‘ do, in any case," he retorted bitterly. "Miss Day réeférred to you by your maiden name. I thought that she was speaking of your aunt, and that was how I stumbled on the truth," David said. "Lucky for me, I suppose; otherâ€" wise, I should never have known any thing about it." t | "You wouldâ€"I intended to tell you,." He laughed unpleasantly.
