ADJUSTMENTS.
At the Hippo drome.


Nowadays when the theory, you
might say, the very core and kernel
OF motion picture drama Is the story
producing firm. which Is a little out
OF the common and which can be work
ed into a five reel drama which will
mold your attention in a motion pic
ture theatre for an hour, for that is
the acid test of the feature film today.
Consider now: An hour Ia the
part of day, practical
ly all that most of US can spare to the
serious business Of amusement. Some
people very properly grudge an hour
to any kind of show which does not
hold interest and excite for the hour
or two which were devoted to it.
1t is there that Body and Soul"
will not fall down. 1t holds. Here 10
the story IN brief:
A beautiful girl loses her memory
and wanders far afield. In the condi-
ton OF what is known as "aphasia"
she becomes the mistress of a well
known man about town living in a
camp: but before she breaks away he
brands her.
Returning to civilization and Fifth
avenue circles in New York, he recog-
nizes her, but she does not recognize
Elm, and at that situation, the whole
series of remarkably powerful episodes
arises.
1t would really spoil the readers
enjoyment to go into further details.
The picture has a wonderful cast
headed by Florence Rockwell, and was
produced by George H. Irving. one OF
the best producers of the time.
Body and Soul will be shown at
the Hippodrome theatre tonight.-Ad-
