End of Road Screen
Drama Showing Evils
That Surround Youth

THE End of the Road" at the
Illinois theatre next week, is a
screen drama from the pen of DR..
Katherine Bement Davis and Ed
ward H. Griffith, late lieutenant in
the United States army. DIR. Da-
Wis is nationally known for her
magnificent labors among women
who have had to submit to cor
rectional discipline. Dr. Griffith
was formerly director for Thomas
A. Edison, Inc, and has assem-
bled in The End of the Road"
some of the greatest audiences of
his finished art in screen play
preparation.
The heroine of the drama is
most convincingly depicted by
Claire Adams. She has been often
declared the most beautiful woman
in film. Her winsomeness as the
girl who was warned in time and
later her determined resistance of
the temptations presented by her
young sutton, show her in blend of
artistic effectiveness seldom
achieved on either the motion pic
ture or legitimate stage. The con-
trast between her maidenly mod
esty and the forwardness of her
high school chum who suffered dis
ease at the hands of a dissoIute
protector" is the strongly appeal
ing angle of the drama.

The various bohemian" quar-

notably that included within the
precincts of Washington Square,
New York. are productive Of many
men and women who assume a Ii
cense in all matters of life that is
denied the more retiring element
of society, or at least Is not given
as much publicity. For the arti-
fetal bohemian loves to pose, to
have his name and his deeds alike
blazoned before the world. He
must be dining and winning and
generally talking that he finds
work almost crowded out. Yet he
never wearies OF telling what he is
