takes upon herself suspicion for a
crime committed by the other girl in
defence of her honor. The relentless
strength Of the long arm of the law Is
shown when luck plays into the hands
of the police inspector after a number
of years. The girl has gone west, has
fallen in love and married. Her hus-
band is successful and she is ideally
happy The past is almost forgotten.
Her husband (RObert Vaughan is
called to New York on business. At
the Pennsylvania station his pocket is
picked; the man who stole his watch
is arrested on suspicion by detectives
and taken to police headquarters.
There a search reveals the watch in
the back of which is a picture of the
heroine. A few moments later the
husband arrives to claim his property
The inspector learns his name and adj
dress and discovers that the girl is
his wife. He wires to her to come to
New York as her husband is i'll. She
does so and is arrested. Thus, the story
is developed to a powerful climax
Does she escape? If so, how ? That
is the question audiences will ask up
to the last few scenes.

presented at the Majestic tonight with
a company of carefully selected cam
era actors to interpret the immensely
human narrative in picture form.
Originally printed as q feature in the
Saturday Evening Post, selected by Ed
itOr LOrimer because it was the best
story the Post ever printed, and Sc
cured by Bluebird photoplays for the
reason that Bluebirds are based on
the best available subjects for photo
playing, The Three Godfathers'' is
sure to create a profound impression
upon theatregOers who find their best
entertainment in purposeful pictures.
Briefly the story tells how three bank
robbers, called upon suddenly and un-
eXpectedly to keep the breath Of life
in the body of newborn babe, full
filled their pledge to the dying mother,
even though two of the godfathers rem
dered their own life as sacrifice.
