somewhere that you can call your own?
Though it be the fourth story of a

REALEAST SIDE

That The Children of the Ghetto,
the big Fox Film Corporation offer
ing now showing at the Hawaii thea
ter, is in no sense sectarian or ra-
cial play, but rather a drama of uni
versal appeal Is demonstrated forcib-
ly by the fact that Izreal IangWilPs
masterpiece has been Endorsed by
record runs wherever it has been pre-
scented on either of the continents
bordering the Atlantic. 1t IS actually
a world" drama with an appeal to
all classes and conditions of men, wo.
men and children. 49, ~ ..s~
The underlying fundamentals OF
human passions and emotions are the
basic points of this drama. 1t calls
for tears and laughter, almost stimuli
taneously. It is thoroughly human
and thoroughly modern. It is great
play, produced by q great producer
and presented by a great cast, inelud-
ing one of Americas great actors,
Wilton Lackaye.
In the original stage offering of this
drama Wilton Lackaye created the
role he now handles in the films. His
makeup" has been declared to be
the most faithful to type ever carried
out. He is supported by a capable
cast and the director has laid the
scenes for his pictures in New York's
Ghetto district thereby following
closely in ZangwilPs footsteps.
