an unusual and intensely interesting
way, OF the pursuit OF the eternal

Bruce Markham Is desperately in love
with Ernestine Waite. a girl of rather
unusual intellect who has opinions
of her own, one OF them being that
physical attractiveness is not the
only requisite for matrimony.
Bruce. determined to wear down all
opposition on her part, starts a vio-
lent seige. Undaunted by her refusal
at Richmond, Va, he follows her TO
New York where she has gone TO
accept a position as social secretary.
He storms into her presence and,
meeting with another decided re-

to surrender.
The scene shifts to the bedroom OF
Ernestine which Bruce invades al
midnight in his mad adventure. Here

situations. What at the outset threat

risque episode is turned into a verba
battle between the two principals

"Enlishten Thy Daughter" Ivan
Feature, Is Here This Week.

Adjectives may have been overlook
ed, and terms of commentator
stretched beyond recovery IN describ-
ing so-called wonderful motion pic
lures" but even with that knowledge
a common possession there are times
when adjectives are really needed
to describe a picture. This applies
with especial force to "Enlighten
Thy Daughter" the seven-reel Ivan
feature production which is being
shown at the Casino Theater.
When the Park Theatre in New
York City is damned for four con-
secutive weeks, to such an extent
that at one time the police reserves
had to be called out to keep the
crowds in check; when the big daily
papers and the trade press unite in
a chorus OF approval it would seem
that adverse criticism was disarmed
at the outset.
The great appeal of the play hinges
upon the difference in the lives of
two young girls, cousins, caused by
the difference in their home environ
ment and training. One careful, con-
scientious, thoughtful mother, teaches
her daughter what to avoid and how

ated in her daughters death.
The managers of the Casino are to
