Divorce makes it possible for
civilized woman to cast off this
little band of bondage. Sometimes
she is forced to cast it off against
her will, because divorce laws are
such that the husband can frame
charges against the woman he no
longer loves.

At the Majestic.


It is sometimes the fate Of an
actor on the screen to make big
success in a part which he disllkes
intensely and then have the after
math pursue him the rest OF his
life. Charles Gerard, the we'll
known film "heavy" who appears
in Elsie Ferguson's new picture,
Counterfeit" at the Majestic to-
night, is going through that exper-
fence at the present time. While
the war was still on, Gerard played
the role of the German in a film
called 1.-THE Hun Within" and gave
an Interpretation that was hailed
as fine bit OF acting. He-was
fairly forced into the part. For
weeks he stood firm against the
coaxing, cajoling and big salary Of
fers of the producer, and finally
consented when it was proved to
him that the deceitful character OF
the Teuton portrayed on the
screen would serve patriotic pur-
pose.
Since that time hardly day. has
passed that Gerard has not been
approached with an offer to play a
German role in film. But he has
drawn the line absolutely.
