AT THE OIIEEN


Back from the great conflict, with
peace restored. our blinded men have
come. Hospitals are doing their bit
and best TO restore their sight. or at
least to teach them to "see" in spite
Of their physical blindness.
Yet 10 has been proved that many
persons who are blind can see far bet
ter than men and women who have
eyes which are normal. In The Light,
the new Iheda Bara super-production,
which is playing at the Queen for three
days beginning today, Is the unusual
story of a blinded man who teaches a
seeing woman how TO see.
This is the first picture Of this most
famous OF screen vampires that has been
seen on this screen since the last great
engagement in "Salome."
This picture has a timely atmosphere
In Paris during and toward the end
OF the war where Theda, as the wicked
est woman in the city, has her reforma-
tion at the hands Of a poor sculptor
who was blinded in the great conflict.
The ending is a happy one and there
fore unusual for a Bara production.
