On the Screen

The Cure" ~ sure cure for the
blues. Charlie Chaplin appeared si-
simultaneously at a number OF moving
picture theatres this week IN his new
vehicle and whether you have liked
Chaplin matters little. io- you are
going TO Ike him now.

Charlie is now going IN for the

Ultimately than ne was. for ono may

tho joys Of being vulgar
Tho Cure Is a resort where waters
are served from a spring which are
said 20 be cilicaciOus in all eases Of
govt. old age. failing eyeslght and in
temperance. Charlie Is afflicted with
the last named complaint
lie arrives AZ the hotel with a huge
wardrobe trunk. and when he Is Sc
curely locked in his room alone he
opens the trunk and takes from the
bottom compartment a tooth brush, a
cake of soap and a collar-the rest Of
the trunk is filled wiki gin and whisky.

spring, ana all of the inmates drink
the water and go mad. And when
Charlie discovers what has happened
lie browns himself m the spring ard

cendently happy smile on his face.
One can pay no greater tribute TO the
versatility Of Norma Talmadse than -
say that IN her lighter moments she re-
scmDl,s Blanche Sweet and IN her
tragic moments she is like Nazimova.
Her work in The Law Of Compensa-
ton" which was shown at the New
York Theatre yesterday. was suggestive
nj times Of these two widely different
actresses.
Miss Taimadge plays two parts m her
new picture. As the daughter she IS
beautiful. young and care-free. Her
strongest work is done IN the role Of
the mother. who deserted her husband
and her child a score OF years before
the real story begins.
Ruth. he daughter. is discovered on
the night Of her graduation and on the
ove Of her betrothal 20 a lifelong
friend. Chester Barnett.
All vent merry as a marriage bell
and the lovers are speedily married and
go 10 live in a suburb of New York.
Soon Ruth tires Of her home, husband
and child and insists on displaying
her voice on the light opera stage.
Father arrives Just in time 20 tell
her the story of his life.
In spite Of the splendid work done by
Miss Talmadge as the erring wife and
mother, one could not help wondering
why IN the scenes of twenty years ago
the people should wear gowns of the
present day. That was the period OF
lalloon sleeves and gOdet pleatS.

u. S. May Profit
By British Blunders

You have the advantage over US
in that you can at once avoid our
blunder Of neglecting agriculture
for two years and half. You can
start a food production department
Some Of your farms can stand II, |
can assure you. The application OF
intensive cultivation to the North
American continent would enable
YOU to resume your old export of
wheat if you needed to do SO. Lands
have been so easily gained IN the
United States; your Eastern people
have handed over 70 more frugaL
folk farms that in the future must
be Of incalculable value.
The war has been one Of our great
est reformcrs. We had lost sight OF
the value of agricultural land Tor
nearly fifty years. Il was so much
easier for you to 90 West and get
new farms and it was so much easier
for US to buy imported wheat than
to grow IT.
We are making one last desperate
effort to get an immense amount OF
land under barley and oats for the
next harvest. 1t is too late TO SOW

Cutting of
/ God Supplies

Lord Dcvonport and Mr.. Kennedy
.Joncs. the food controllers, are cut
ting off supplies at the main. Each
hotel is TO have five ounces of meat
per head per day. SO far a the
hotels arc concerned. that is all right.
But what about the private houses?
The nominal food regulation here
is four pounds Of bread and two half
pounds of meat per head per week.
Conscientious people carry out the
regulations to the letter. Other CON
scientious people do not believe there
is a necessity 10. If there were a
necessity, they say, the government
would order MS, not ask 7cs.
Among the poor. who have never
enjoyed such wages in their lives
before, there is not only no economy,
but, as 7 can affirm from personal
inspection and that Of my reporters,
Great waste. There is nobody out
Of work in England; the combined
members Of many working house
holds are earning as much a SO or
500 a week. The spectacle may be
seen in mining and munition dis
tricts Of dict more suited to the
Plaza, the Blackstone or the Belle
vuc-Stratford in peace time than TO
a British mining village in war time.
