CRANDALL'S
Frank keenan's Stirring
sThe World Aflame"

Frank Keenan,, distinguished char
acter actor, not only impersonates the
figure of chief interest in "The World
Ahame," the principal photoplay Of
fering at Crandall's Theater the first
three days of the current week. but
in this splendid drama of present-day
Industrial revolt makes his debut as
author and director.
The story of the picture concerns
the adventures in politics and out Of
a capitalist who thinks that strikes
can be prevented by a show of force.
To prove his contention he breaks a
street car strike, after his election as
mayor, by driving a car through the
strike district and defying the. men
not TO let it run. Here occur the
most thrilling scenes OF the picture
marvels of accuracy and intensely
realistic. The breaking of the strike,
however. does not break the deter.
mination OF the men TO win their
point. From this fact comes the in
spiration from which the mayor
evolves his plan of dealing with the
workers as men and not as so many
automatons. By a clever ruse he
brings the employers and employees
together under circumstances in which
neither can become the aggressor and
all become friends.

essential dramatic conflicts for his
successful stage play. Lefty" he
chose his principal characters from
three distinct and sharply contrasted
levels of English society. Lefty, a

lifted themselves above her drab sur
roundings, was wooed Simultaneous
ly by the millionaire head Of the
brokerage firm, bourgeois to the point
Of uncouthness; wealthy but disso-
lutte peer of the realm, and q youth
whose only recommendations were
high business aspirations for the fu-
ture and a boundless love for the
girl from whom he craved no further
return than a partially reciprocated
affection.
