"Three Green Eyes,

The program of Loew's Columbia
Theater yesterday seemed to include
half the cinema stars of America, for
the feature-"Three Green Eyes"-in-
cluded at least Ave and there were
fully seven other stellar appearances
throughout the rest of the showings.
Three Green Eyes" a World pro-
duction. which gives parts to a uuip-
tet OF photoplay luminaries-June El-
vidge. Montagu Love. Carlyle Black
well. Evelyn Greeley and Johnny
Hines-is one OF the most pretentious
productions released this spring and 1t
served to demonstrate that a woman
who marries for money usually earns
it. The theme concerns the desperate
effort of a girl. who forsakes a sweet
heart TO marry for money. to proven,
her rich husband from discovering her
love for another. The picture Is
strong and dramatic throushout, the
photoplay is excellent and the cast
selected has fully justified all expec-
tations of its acting ability
June Elvidge portrays the role of
the girl who marries for pelf: CARLYLE
Blackwell is cast in a congenial role
as the frustrated young lover. and
Montagu Love has the part of the
wealthy husband. Both Miss Greeley
and Hines are cast in roles which

"For Better, for worsc.-

The Aircraft production forces may
not be ready. at this time. to an
nounce a new Aircraft star in the per-
son OF Gloria Swanson. but IL is mani
fest. after the first showings yesterday
at Loew's Palace Theater OF Cecil B.
De Miles newest production. For
Better. for Worse" that such an An
nouncement cannot be DELAYED much
longer.
In For Better. for Worse" Miss
Swanson's dark. clear-cut beauty
serves merely as a setting for some of
the most capable emotional acting that
has been thrown on local silversheets
in many weeks. In the character OF
girl who renounces her sweetheart
as coward because he conceives his
duty to lie at home In wartime, Miss
swanson gives number of portray
ais that nrmly set her feet on the bor-
derland Of stardom.
DeMille has evidenced in For Bet
ter. for Worse" his dislnClination to
produce until he has something to pro-
duce. and in For Better, for Worse"
he has had something honestly worth
while to show. In this picture. he
has chosen the theme that not ali the
heroes of the great war were in the
trenches. and through the acting mer-
its of Elliott Dexter. playing opposite
Miss Swanson. the director has drawn
fine portrait of a doctor who sacri-
fees the girl he loves for his ideal of
duty.
The picture is magnificent to the
point of splendor IN its settings. which
Is always characteristic OF a DeMiIIe
production. Although this atmosphere
OF splendor permeates the entire pro-
duction, it is not allowed to interfere
with the dramatic development of cIi-
max and situation. which combine TO
add another real success to De Miles
credit
The producer has brought a notable
cast to his new production which in
cludes. in addition to Miss Swanson
and Mr.. Dexter such players as Tom
Forman. Sylvia Ashton. Raymond
Hatton. Theodore Roberts, Wanda
Hawley. Winter Hall. Jack Holt and
Fred Huntley.
