 THE FINAL JUDGMENT"

The Trianon theatre presents to the public of Birmingham the noted star, Miss Ethel Barrymore, on Friday and Saturday, in the World film feature. from the play of George Scarborough, "The Final Judgment.'
 "The Final Judgment' is peculiarly interesting because 1t is later to form q play in which Ethel Barrymore will appear as in the film. There are so many good things in the picture that after seeing it one is eager to see it's dramatized form If 1t Is as effective on the stage as an the screen. it will be success.
 The author has taken well-worn idea-a murder of husband by his wife sweetheart--and has invested lit with so much originality of plot and complication that 1t succeeds in being that rare thing-something new. The murderer is celebrated chemist. and while in Russia he has discovered a volatile poison hitherto unknown, which has been mixed with incense to kill an altar boy in Moscow. As Jane |Carleson; whom he loves, has married To rival, he keeps his discovery secret and determines to use 1t to kill the hus- band.- -*, =
