1.-THE SEATS OF
The MIGHTY
AT the PASTIxE SUNDAY

Sir Gilbert Parker Is the first Anglo
Saxon writer Of the first rank to have
his best known novel picturized and
presented at a Broadway Theatre
Sienkewicz (Quo Vadls); D'Annunzio
(Cabiria) were his intellectual equals
and predecessors. Every possible
justice has been done to Parker's
book. We are becoming accustomed
unfortunately, to measuring the value
or drawing power OF these motion pic
lures by the amount Of money spent
in making them. But this thing
doesn't always work out that way with
machine like precision. The public
has a knack of manifesting its own
preferences irrespective Of the influ-
ences Of the dollar. In recent times,
some of the costliest movies made
have fallen as flat as ditchwater; the
reason for this is that while the money

There wasn't a story or II there was
a story II wasn't well acted, or the
photography was poor.

Under the new bank and currency
law it is evident the government is
going to be much more strict than
formerly with reference 10 the regu-

this they have already commenced

the banks that overdrafts will not be
countenanced by the department The

states to have the state banks do the
same thing. While ii has been the
custom to allow overdrafts the de-
