A letter from Kenya tells of the curious effect of a doll with moving eyes. When it was shown to a native chief he thought it supernatural. On being convinced, after some time. that it was mechanics and not magic that moved the eyes, he asked the loan of it to get back one of his wives who had fled to her native village. He explained that if he took it then all the men would flee and thus he could secure his wife. He proved as success- ful in his prophecy as in his quest.

Solicitors for the Executors THE DURHAM CHRONICLE GEO.DUNCAN, Auctioneer Mt; Gives Powerful Portrayal in Picture of Drama. Punch and Suspenseâ€"Lina. Basquette Again Charms At Head 0: Capable Supporting Cast. BARTLEMESS AT BEST IN DUAL ROLE OF HWINS IN “WHEEL OF CHANCE” The whims of fate, as exemplified by the roulette wheel, provide the theme of “The Wheel of Chance", Richard Barthelmess’ new starring vehicle for First National Pictures, which will be at the Star Theatre Friday and Satur- day. December 7 and 8. The effect of circumstances and environment upon the twin brothers. separated in childhood by relentless fate, was the idea behind the original story, “Roulette”, by Fannie Hurst. It is followed faithfully in the picture version, which brings Barthelmess to the screen at his best, in a powerful. dramatic vehicle with suspense and “punch” throughout. Barthelmess plays the dual role, portraying both twins. One is red- haired and one black. One is denied the guidance of his parents, the other is more fortunate. With great realism and understanding, the star enacts the two characters, giving toeach the qual- ities as developed by theid individual upbringing. In the climax of the story, staged in a courtroom where one brother prosecutes the other for murder without being aware of the relationship. Barthelmess rises to dramatic heights seldom witnessed on the screen. It is an unforgetable scene, and one that will go down in screen history .as a masterpiece of dual -- __2L- “V HUI-aw Lina Basquette, who played opposite Barthelmess in “The Moose." is again his leading lady in “The Wheel of Chance.” and is both charming and convincing‘. Margaret Livingmon is the “other girl” who enters- the life of both boys. Warner Gland. Bodil Ros- ing. Ann Schaeffer and several Others have character roles of exceptional merit. “The Wheel of Chance" is an Alfred Santell Production. Santell’s clever directorial genius is easily recognizable throughout the picture. which is staged with careful attention to detail. especially in the Russian sequences of the prologue. â€"-- an â€" A. .‘ 'â€" -"U_' In “The Wheel of Chance" Barthel- mess has a splendid screen story. one that demanded the finesse of a gen- uine artist and he has not disappoint- ed his innumerable followers. It is one of the big pictures of the year. Baseball Game In Comedy The funniest baseball game ever played is one of the principal comedy features in the new Educational-Mer- maid Comedy. “Batter Up" which will be at the Star Theatre Friday and Saturday of this week. The ball game is one of those speedx abundantly gagged sequences found in these Meimaid Comedies. with things happing on the screen that never did happen on the diamond". George Davis is the featured come- dian. He is seen as a hotel clerk who offers to pitch for the home team. Although he is a failure as a pitcher. he is a howling success as a comedian. and he earns many laughs in the comical baseball game. Davis is a newlx featured, player with the Mermaid Comedies. He has been scoring in co-featured roles and IES to go it alone. Stephen Roberts directed the picture under the supervision of Jack White. noted fast- action comedy director. FORMER CHAMPION REFUSED CONTRACT was given _his chance in “Batter Up" Willie Boppc. Billiard Sensation for Twenty Years. Forced Out of Game. Willie Hoppe, hailed for a decade as one of the greatest billiard players. the game ever produced, is about to be frozen out of the sport. The Bruns- wick-Bame-Collender Co., which rules the billiard world, this week refused to renew Hoppe’s contract for many years‘ standing and by so doing prac- tically eliminated him from cue competition. Ever since he was a wee mite of 9. boy. beating old Jake Schaefer. Frank _Ives and George Sutton, Happe has been on the payroll for $7.500 9- year. And Hoppe more than earned his money, bringing many things to the game besides his uncanny skill. He brought out the crowds and stim- ulated public interest. in 1|th is fascinating to play. but not much at a spectaclc to watch. Hoppe lost his mastery over the balkiine game. Never possessing the feathery touch of the younger Schaeier. Cochran. Horemans. Hagen- iacher and the French stars. Hoppa kept winning for nearly two decades on sheer courage and. adroit safety. But ai‘. things comc to an end. and Hoppe turned to three-cushion bil- liards. In the two years at the game. new to him. he has’inade such stars as Lavton. Cannefax. De Oro and Kieckhefer look like children. He has out-played them all and in his only championship attempt lost to Layton by r. close score. But this week Hoppe was told hll contract would not be renewer. Be notified the management that unleu his conract was renewed he would not participate in the four-cornered tour- nament next week with Layton. the Champion. Copulos and Rebel. It Hoppe does not play it is pre-doomed to be a frost. Eflorts are being made to appeal to the sentimental side in order to get Hoppe a new contract. But corporations. not possessing souls. are not given to sentimentalizing. So it looks as though billiards is going to play the same scurvy trick on Hoppe that baseball. did. to Cap. Anson. PAGE 7.
