one of the most important film pro-

has been acclaimed as a sensation.
The story deals with the vast
problems of the present day, such
as the high cost of living and the
workingman's salary. 1t asks IL the

and the penalties 1t imposes on the
reckless; also a Goldwyn feature,
starring Lewis Bennison in THE Road
Called Straight" a story of hard
fighting and bold loving.
Louis Bennison t~ransplants many
thrills of the West to the East in
several interest-compelling incidents
of his newest Betzwood production.
1.-The Road Called Straight" which
comes to the Ditmas theatre, begin
ming today. In his role of AL Boyd,
a wealthy rancher the brilliant artist
surpasses even his notable character

to demonstrate his right to screen
{ stardom than was afforded him In
any of his previous Betzwood sue

Boyd is visited by Robert Swift

poration, who seeks to purchase
Boyd's interests. With him Is his
daughter Betty (Ormi Hawley). with
She spurns his>offer of marriage and
in order to win his way into Betty's
good graces. Boyd gives Swiftmore a
three months option. Misfortune
overtakes the fnancier and to ave the
family fortune Betty wires Boyd to
come East and claim her. The mar
riage of convenience n the schem-
ing Of Betty's former sutton lead
Boyd into innumerable scrapes but his
indomitable courage triumphs against
overwhelming odds in the end.
Though not until the hardy Westerner
Is enmeshed in a series of thrilling
situations to which only daredevil
Louis Bennison could DO full justice.
1.-THE Soul of Broadway" a William

stories of New York night life, will
head the bill beginning today at the

best dressed woman in the world. has
the star role. that Of a woman who
loves the white lights better than any
thing else in the world. She is sup
ported by an unusual cast. including
William e. Shay, Gertrude Berkeley,
George Middleton Maud Allen and

Miss Suratt has n of the best
roles of her career. She has for her
devoted admirer a roue, but while she
