Cali Of Cumberlands" a
Film of Negative
Merit.
COMEDY AND DRAMA
AT KNICKERBOCKER
Joe Jackson Does Good Work in
Former - Other Screen
Attractions.

The film at the Strand Theatre this
week is commendable for what it
omts Since Mark Twain wrote
"Hucklebcrry Finn" there has been
only one way TO work out a Kentucky
feud story. 1t has involved a hero
from one faction and a heroine from
the other, and the love Of these two
has been greater than Winchesters and
more lasting than the wrath Of stern
fathers.
Charles Neville Buck has furnished
n Kentucky feud setting for "The Cal.
Of the Cumberlands," but he has re
sisted the temptation to gather his
lovers from opposition camps. Both
samson and Sally are descended from
the sturdy house Of South, and there
really Is no time Ia the course Of the
picture when they could not have gone
ahead and got married. Apparently
all that stayed them was the necessity
OF turning out fve-reeler
Mr.. Bucks story has second yir

audiences have learned 20 dlstrust the
New York artist who comes with his
utensils into the rural districts, there
TO obtain local color and encounter the
heroine IN her bucolic deshabilie.
Usually IL Is at least seven TO one that
the girl will be seen next In q bare
nat in Gotham. with only cracker or
two for herself and the baby.
When such an artist strayed into
the picture at the Strand yesterday,
consequently. he was Immediately
branded villain. Here again, how
ever, there was evidence Of the au-
thor's restraint. All that the painter
did was 10 persuade the hero TO 20
10 New YORK for the purpose Of de
velOping his artistic talents. and IN
New York IL turned out that the artist
was a right decent fellow, with really
delightful folks.
But although Charles Neville Buck
has turned from the conventional. he
has not bazed much Of trail. The
Call of the Cumberland is for the
most part flat stuff. with Its virtues
exclusively negative. IL has one or
two mildly thrilling moments, but
never becomes anything more than "a
