Moore's strand-"we Can't Have
Everything"

The enactment of a photoplay
within q photoplay Is one Of the
many unique features in We Can't
Have Everything" the Cecil B. De
Mile special production for Art
craft which constitutes the feature
of the bill at Moore's Strand Theater
the FIRST four days Of this week.
Those familiar with the story of this
subject from having read IL in the
form of one OF Rupert Hughes most
diverting novels will recall that
endless opportunities are presented
for diversified action, magnificent
setting and elaborate costuming.
The story is one of ultra-modern-
ism in which the divorce courts play
no small pant. but which by the
very nature OF the Developments
| disclosed centers attention with a
surety that has seldom been equal
| led and never surpassed. Much add
ed effectiveness is lent the film by
the fact that those pictured in the
leading roles are among the most
prominent stars appearing in silent
drama, Seldom has such a nota BILE
band of players as Kathlyn WILL
liams. Elliott Dexter. Sylvia Bream-
er. Theodore Roberts. Wanda Haw-
ley, Raymond Hatton. Sylvia Ash
ton and Tully Marshall been as
sembled for a single production. The
expert direction Of Mr.. De Mile
and the artistic photography super
vised by Alan Wyckoff have served
to emphasize the admirable quality
of the work done by the principals.
! In point of material accessories and
!judiciously chosen outdoor locations
I'VE Can't Have Everything" adds
new luster to the names Of its spon-
sors.
The program is completed by ths
customary reels OF news and COM
edy interest and an exceptionally
well chosen orchestral accompanf-
ment arranged by Mr.. Breeskin.
Beginning Thursday the feature
will be "One Dollar Bid" starring
j. Warren Kerrigan.

PoIi.-.Keep Her smillns.-

It is not dificult to reach the pith
and the heart of the new comedy
which slipped, hesitantly and an hour
behind schedule. into premier honors
at Polls last evening.
The Sidney Drews have a new Sid
ney Drew comedy. II may be, for
aught we know, one of those SINGLE
reel Metro pieces expanded into a
regular play. It is clever, clean, un-
exciting, unforced, mild, middle-class
fun-a sort of diluted AIDE, or Harry
Leon Wilson.
1t has a whimsical satire Of Subur-
bia In 1t, vivid exploitation OF the
round-shouldered Office drudge-it has
been moons since our old friend the
Faithful Employe has been done so
well-and, inevitably. quaint, deli
ciously funny domestic misunder-
standing owing to the sudden shift
from a Bronx fat to a Renaissance
villa at Cythebourne-on-the-Sound.
Here is easy, unhurried comedy Of
the best American .genre-neither
tainted with melodrama, nor hung on
the pegs of impossible situations, nor
stilted with epigrams or smart talk.
Certain phases of 1t are about as tame
as the little tempests in teapots which
will. despite everything, disturb the
serenity OF the best regulated of fam
lilies, and others are mainly interest
ing as showing how flxed and skilfui
the Sidney Drews have become in en-
acting their favorite metier-perhaps
the only meter in which they are
known to the public. at least the
movie public.
Every type in the. play. Is we'll
drawn; none Is out of focus. That Is
its chief merit. The acting, also, Is
In character throughout. There are
no jarring notes. And while none of
the characters IN the play IL a fresh.
new type. it would be far from the
mark to say that any Of them are
stereotyped. ...s.
Mr.. and Mrs. Drew enact Henry
and Polly Trindle in their own charac-
teristic style. which is, to be sure, nei-
ther as sharply etched as other expon-
ents of the type. nor as keenly barbed
with fun. but is throughout realistic
and effective. Their picture of domes-
,dcity is one which doubtless has be-
come a semi permanent asset of the
stage, and there is no question of its
mirth-provoking qualities. The sup
port was excellent. Dewitt C. Jennings
as Theodore Bracket; Lincoln Plumer
and Maidel Turner as Jim and Myra
Merriweather; W. A. Whitecar as
Welborn Otis were among the leaders
In the cast.
Keep Her Smiling is not a punch"
play, or a comedy which throws any
new illumination on the life Of the
period. but it is faithful and funny
picture of certain Americans whom
all of US know-and as such will evoke
wide interest.

Loews CoIumbIa-EIsIe Ferguson.

Elsie Ferguson in The Danger
Mark" was shown at Loew's Column
bia yesterday and will remain the
feature photoplay through wednes-
day. It is a typical Elsie Ferguson
picture in more ways than one. She
plays the leading role and plays 1t
splendidly. ....
In less competent hands the part
Of Geraldine, especially the scenes
in which she becomes intoxicated,
would have proven a shock to many
people. Handled by Miss Ferguson
these scenes are not Objectionable
in the least and one can only mar
vel at the rare ability OF the actress
that puts them over in such artistic
style. This perturbation of Robert
w. Chambers rather sensational
story Is good screen entertainment.
The story has to do with Geral-
dine Seagrave, who has inherited
her fathers craving for liquor, in
dulges her taste by eating sugar
STEPPED in cologne, and one day
when Duane Mallett, who loves her,
calls upon her she plainly shows
the effects of intoxication. She tells
him what she does to satisfy her
craving. and he gives her a diamond
ring to wear as a sort of talisman
to overcome her desire for intoxi-
cants.
She meets Jack Dysart and con-
sents to marry him. but later re-
fuses when she hears that he
wronged Duane's sister. Geraldine
then receives a letter from Dysart,
saying that 1t is all over between
them. whereupon the desire for
drink seizes her. But the sparkle
of her diamond ring catches her eye
as she Is about to drink and she re-

SUNDAY THEATER OPENINGS.

Of absence from camp and canton
ment.
Leo Stevens, who sneezes in O way
suggestive of an overly developed
case of influenza, was easily the
chif attraction. although Billy Kel-
ly and Martin Lee furnish enjoyable
comedy in the opening numbers.
Stevens was seen only in the last
burletta, entitled The Doll Shop"
a fantasy of clever lines. His sup
porting principals. Doris Claire.
Belle Costello. Mae Earle and Babe
Ready did excellent work. Partic-
ularly good were Miss Costello's
songs, but she might sing more of
them to good advantage.
In THE Doll Shop" Stevens
creates many incidental opportuni-
ties for laughter. This sketch por-
trays the trials of the proprietor of
q shop where living dolls are on
sale. The dolls are put through a
series of poses that reflect much
credit upon their instructors.
A large and well-appointed chorus
adds much to the bill. A feature is
the ensemble number of the girls.

is committed to increases for the
men. - ..---
The board recommended to the
President that he use his extraor-
dinary wartime powers to permit
the companies to increase their fares,
as IL was evident they could not
pay the increased wages at the pres
ent fixed fares.
Street railway men have told the
board their companies would all be
bankrupt IL the wage increases were
granted without corresponding fare

Moore.s Gnrden-.Patriotism.- =

The fascination exerted over the
lay mind at the present time by the
spectacle of an alien enemy en-
gagged in spy work being apprehend-
ed by a young woman unassisted-
especially when that young woman
has demonstrated the possession of
all the traits that go to make a
heroine-is vigorously exemplified
at Moore's Garden Theater the FIRST
three days Of this week where the
feature of the photoplay bill is
M H:alta's latest release, Patriot
ISM" picturing Bessie Barriscale in
the stellar role.
As Robin Cameron. the girl whose
father was killed in battle and
whose brother shortly afterward
marched away to the colors, Miss
Barriscale contributes one of the
most appealing as well as one of
the most skillfully drawn charac-
terizations she has so far brought
to the screen. There are frequent
intervals during the development Of
the story. which. by the way, deals
with none of the repelIant aspects
OF the war. in which Miss Barriscale
is permitted to give free rein to her
admirably directed gifts of emo
tionalisr'. The climax OF the narra-
tive Is reached when she discovers a
submarine base on a deserted coast
adjacent to her home, which has
been converted into a hospital for
the rehabilitation OF the allies
wounded. and thereby discredits a
plotter who by subtle scheming had
made 1t appear that her lover was
guilty Of variety OF reasonable
crimes.
On Wednesday and Thursday the
screen at the Garden will be occu-
pied by Vitagraph's three-star spec
ial production. "One Thousand Dol
