UNUSUALLY GOOD SHOW FOR
THIS EVENING, SAYS OASTLER

Poppy" a Selznick- Pictures photo
drama version of the popular novel by
the same name, with Norma Talmadge
as the star. will be the attraction at
the American Theatre tonight This
is the third of Miss Talmadge's pro-
ductiOns since she abandoned the pro-
grams for the broader field of the
open booking system, at the head of
her own company. She never has had
a vehicle in which there was more
scope fer her versatility than in Pup
py," ana it promises to he the sensa-
tion OF The career of this young fav-
orite.
The story is that of Poppy Destin. a
waif who is so cruelty treated by an
aunt that she runs away. When near
death in The South African desert, she
is befriended by Luce Abinger, who
later marries her, pretending that the
ceremony is one of adoption to make
Poppy his ward, and as it is per-
formed in French by a wandering
priest, she remains in ignorance.
Later, when the girl has reached wo-
manhood, she rebels at the confine-
ment, as Abinger does, not permit her
TO leave the grounds of his home in
Durham. One night, however. a man
strays into the garden. He is Evelyn
Carson, a friend of Abinger's, who
does not know of Poppy. He is half
delirious from an approaching attack
of fever. and meeting the girl. and
passing an ecstatic hOu. with her, he
later believes it to have been only
dream. Then comes Abinger's reyela-
ton to Poppy of their marriage. She
loves Carson. and leaYes Abinger, to
make her own way as an author.
Poppy wins fame and fortune, and the
manner in which she later confronts
the two men, the one who thought
she was only a vision, and the other
who thought he could hold her by a
trick wedding, is a cleverly told story.
Poppy has the strength of a char
acter to work out her own salvation,
and she does so in an unconventional
way.
