It was directed by his brother, R. A. Walsh, who has gained an enviable reputation as a producer, through his wonderful achievements in 'The Honor System" "The Con- queror.' An Innocent Sinner" and Betrayed"
 George Walsh is again seen as a young man, the son of a wealthy father, so busy. having a good time that he finds it impossible to squeeze in a commercial or professional ca = reer. In this story his failing is mo- tion pictures, and it is when he meets a charming woman standing in front of a motion picture theater that he loses his heart, thoroughly believing the lady is a movie queen" His l father is a munitions manufacturer and sends the boy to South America in his interests.

INTOLERANCE" TO
 BE AT COLUMBIA

In the larger cities where D. w. Griffith's Intolerance" has played engagements many months long it is known that many persons have seen this production two or three times, and wonderment never ceases at the magnificence, the lavishnes and the beauty of this play with it's theme of loves struggle throughout the ages. "Intolerance' which will appear at the Columbia next Thursday, Friday and Saturday may not be compared with any other production, for it surposses anything ever attempted or achieved, and therefore is absolutely unique
 The cast of principals including the names of many well-known stars, and thousands of men, women and chil- dren are participants in the action of the four parallel stories relating to intolerance in four widely sep arate periods of the worlds history. It is pretty generally known that the ancient city of Babylon has been re- produced with a realism that is as- founding. Quite as successful has been the reVential treatment of the reproduction of scenes in the Holy Land, when Christ walked among the people. Then there is the massacre of sSt. Bartholomew with Medieval Paris as the setting for many historic episodes. However, there is quite as much success in the presentation of a strilling story of today, with a western city of the United States as the locale. A finely trained orches tra contribute importantly to the en- l tertasnment.

An aris- tocrat "befoah the war, sahi" he valued honor more than life, ana whe ncircumstances led him to steal 5000, there was onely one way to clear his name.

 To steal money is bad enough. but to steal Broadway's. idolized musical comedy star, at the height of the show season, and whisk her away to the land of sand and cactus, with a five thousand dollar reward out for her return and the arrest of the hdnappers, is a pretty big order even for an Arizona millionaire That is what John Reyes does ir the new Triangle play.

UNUSUAL PICTURE
 IS BOOKED AT HIP

Constance Talmage in Scandal is the way the announcement reads down at the newly painted and much lighted Hip theater. Constance Tal- mage, just short year ago, after sev- eral uneventful seasons in pictures, flashed across the screen skies like comet, as the Mountain Girl' in D. w. Griffiths Intolerance" and with that fine discrimination that has brought to his banner only stars of the first magnitude, Louise J. Selz- nick contracted for this beautiful, talented girl to produce eight pic lures under his management and from stories selected by him.
 Scandal" is her first picture and her bid for recognition in the fore most ranks of stardom could not have heen made with a vehicle that is better suited, it is said, to the talents of this wnsome sister of gifted Nor ma Talmage
 Scandal ran in serial form in The Green Book. and was written by Cosmo Hamilton, writer with < wonderful following, for all of his stories are best sellers. Scandal" was widely read in The Green Book. and is now popular counter seller hl tne DOCK stores
 The motion Picture News review ing it in it's November 10 issue, says:
 The role of Beatrice Vanderdyke, in this adoption of Cosmo Hamilton's bon bon novel of the same namo. fits Constance Talmage even better than the proverbial glove"
 As the spoiled and foolish daugh- ter of parents who are too busy with their social duties to give her much attention, she plays with a natural air of extravaganza, realization of her self convinced importance that will win her unusual praise.
 Scandal as a novel was immensely popular, so will Scandal as picture be equally popular, for ii has everything that goes to make a big high class feature offering.
 The bare outline of the plot might suggest an offensive picture" says the News Reviewer, flor this self willed girl finding herself in mighty deep water by reason Of her indis- crimination. and makes ea open dec laration that she has been secretly married to a society man of her ac- quaintance.

then complications one after another set in to mar the harmony of the cruise until the climax is reached ana the picture ends with & delightful twist
 The two young folks thrown to- gether on the yacht, where everyone of the party thinks them man and wife, afford the delicate side to the screen version of this widely read book and the unraveling supplies at the same time a chance for Miss Tal- mage to firmly establish herself as real screen star. for a slight slip in the delicate situations that con- front her when friends bid the sup posed newly weds good night at the door of their stateroom would make this picture objectionable and coarse. As 1t is. Scandal should set a new mark, the critics say, in the Select Picture company's new policy.
 Scandal played Tally's Theater in Los Angeles. last week, and this is recommendation without qualified ton. It remains at the Hip for Mon day as well.
