Scandal"

In "Hypocrites" Lois Weber aimed
to unmask the mean hypocrisies of
modern society and how well she sue
ceeded is an old story; in Scandal
a really significant photoplay, she
selects Gossip, the favored guest at
SO many of u social gatherings,
dresses him up as a fiendish monster
and makes him the motivation Of a
thoroughly human drama. The pic
ture is uncommon in having a definite
theme Of true import; it is a striking
sermon in the guise of drama; it is
completely in accord with the type of
purposeful production that is a credit
to the industry and should be given
every possible encouragement.
Miss Weber attributes her idea for
the scenario to a Brisbane editorial
which appeared in the Los Angeles
Examiner, stating that to sit behind
the window of a club facing the ave-
in any great city is to hear more
poisonous and dangerous gossip in
half an hour than may be heard at a
sewing circle during an entire after
noon. Apparently Miss Weber liked
the idea of putting the origin of ma
icious innuendoes squarely up to idle
men-the very men who scott most
at the tale-bearing propensities of
wonderland having selected the CEN
trail object for attack she imagined a
convincing illustration to drive home
her conviction. 1t is not entirely a
man-made scandal; women, too, con-
tribute to the false tales; but the

The browning climax is a hero sacri-
flee of Hironari showing the loyalty of
the Japanese race to their country,
ven to the giving of life itself.
Tokoramo has been sent to Paris
by his country to secure the plans of
the French military forces. His work
is interfered with by the visit to his
office of Helene, a chorus girl with
whom he has fallen in love. Helene
has heartlessly thrown over her fan
ce, Bernisky for the new and interest
ing Jap, and meanwhile Toko's
countrymen in Paris have been in
formed by their spy of Helene's visits.
Tokoramo endeavors to keep Helene
from coming, because he is working
day and night; but to no avail. She
continues to visit his apartments
against his wishes, and one day while
there her rejected sweetheart forces
his way past the servant into Toko's
room. Toxic quickly hides Helene be-
hind a curtain, where she listens to
her W denunciation and exposure
from the lips of the man she has so
lightly deserted. When Bernisky de-
parts, Toxic brings Helene from her
hiding place and bids her go forever,
but she pleads passionately to remain.
Toxic will not listen and demands that
she leave at once. Helene starts, and
Toxic, realizing how much he cares fol
her, calls her back. Then she refuses
to stay, and in vehement denunciation
tells him she will go back to Bernisky
and laughs at him-calls him a "yel.
low rat" and bids him return to his
yellow country from whence he came
This enrages Toxic, and he strangles
Helene to death and leaves her lying
lifeless on his bed.

trouble, so far-reaching in it's effects,
has it's inception among a party of
men who will while away the hours by
sitting in a club window and COM
menting on the passers-by. They do
not see, as the audience does, by
means of frequent double exposures,
the gloating image of Gossip stand
ing at their elbows.
The construction of the picture is
admirable. It follows facts in show
ing the spread of evil. The club gos-
sips drop a spark and the resulting
fire starts in a small way; then grad
ually spreads and becomes a veritable
confagration that cannot be checked
until it has run it's course. The mean
ing of a half-destroyed letter is mis-
construed and Daisy's husband is
made to believe that she has resumed
an affair with a former admirer. An
automobile accident that delays
Daisy's return home until the small
hours of the morning, added to the
evil reports, is taken by the hus-
band as proof conclusive of his wife's
infidelity and after a powerfully acted
scene he shoots the man whom he
supposes has wronged him, thereby
adding murder to the long list of
crimes directly attributable to Cos
sip. Daisy wanders off into the
country with her baby in her arms
and is saved from suicide by Wright,
now ruined in business and reputation
and living in a little cottage with
his aged mother. But the work of
Gossip continues unabatted, for it is
rumored in the club that the stenogra-
pher and her former employer are oc-
cupying the same house, thereby prov
ing the correctness of previous con-
illusions.
