For Better, For Worse Cecil B.
DeMile's newest Aircraft produc-
ton, is the attraction at the Rialto
theater. 1t is typical DeMille pro-
ducton. 1t is unique in that no
william is in the cast. The characters

human situations and the sympathy
of the audience goes out to them in
spite of their mistakes and rash &C
tons The play deals with the most
modern of problems now engaging
public attention, that raised by the

That money can't buy love was
convincingly shown by Madame
Traverse at the first presentation
here Of her new photoplay, when
Fate Decides" at the Sun theater
yesterday. The most striking char
acteristic of this play is Miss Ira
verses keen portrayal of the emo
tons of a wife, long unhappy, then
torn between love and duty, later in
terrible fear for the safety of the
man she loves, and finally finding
complete happiness. The action is

veying a story of wide appeal to both
men and women.

Joyce's performance is marked for
its sincerity and charm. As the
working girl wife of a young mil
lionaire she has occasion to express
the highest form of histrionism. Her
husband is, dsinherited for marry

is wrongfully accused of murder and
given the third degree it is his wife
who stands by him and shows such
courage and devotion that he even
tually gains his liberty. A Lloyd
comedy and the Pathe News are also
shown.

Nine. Nazimova is featured has
established several records. One is
revealed in the comment Of we'll

Literary Digest, who after witness
ing its permier, declared: 81 have
been going to pictures for a long
time looking for what | consider a

There has always been the opinion
of experts to combat to the effect

makes another record for itself, for
it was adapted from the romance,
"A Rosebud of Thousand Years"
written by Mrs. Mabel Wagnalls, a
charming story of the awakening of
