IN The THEATRES
'"THE LONESOME CHAP"
AT THE DITMAS TC

AZ THE DIINlIAo IODhI. i.
Louise Huff and House Peters will
be seen at the Ditmas today In the
Pallas-Paramount production The
Lonesome Chap" thrilling story by
Emma Rochelle Williams prepared
for the screen by Harvey Gates. The
cast supporting the stars in this pro-
duction includes such clever artists as
Eugene Palette, John Burton. Betty
Jonson and Senior Bartos.
Those who have followed Pauline
Frederick's firm career will note the
wide range of subjeces and characters
her work has covered. While there
is no doubt about the fact that Miss
Frederick's best work is done In
heavy emotional types of pictures,
still the fact remains that this gift
ed actress of the screen possesses q
scope seldom equalled. For instance
she has played an old woman in 1.-THE
Moment Before;" a wild young girl In
Audrey" an adventures in "The
Worlds Great Snare;" a quiet home
loving women in "The Woman In the
Case;" again young girl, but this
time suspected shoplifter, in
Ashes of Emfbers." and many other
varied characters. In her latest pic
ture she portrays a young wife and
mother, fighting through the long bat
tie of the courts for her child. She
is patient. loving and gentle, until. as
the title suggests, the Sleeping
Fires" are aroused. when she be-
comes little short of lioness fighting
for her offspring and rises to splen-
did heights of artistry. Sleeping
Fires will be the attraction tomor-
row.
