AT THE TOPIC TOMORROW.

Henry B. WalthaIl does some very
remarkable acting in his new drama,
And a Still Small Voice. which
comes to the Topic tomorrow. He is
called upon to register on the screen
emotions that shall indicate an ab-
sent influence on his acts, and he
does this with admirable effective
ness. In fact, throughout his career,
young Clay Randolph makes evident
the existence of a power working for
his redemption from the slough of
dependency and social oblivion. The
play is cleverly constructed in that
the spectator knows what is the mat
ter with Randolph. 1t is plainly
shown that the influence is that Of
the woman who loves him and when
this works out to a happy solution
Of the problems involved, there is
created a story that is worth telling,
The production is by the National
Film Corporation of America and it
is finely photographed and directed.

more than little anxiety for the fu

their psychology he affected by an &C
