MARRYING
FOR MONEY

A most remarkable case Of a mar
rage for money and what came OF IL
is pictured in THE Spark Divine, 4"
the newest Alice Joyce picture, which
will be seen at Loew's Columbia The
alter three days. beginning today. In
this case the girl. beautiful and tall
ented. frankly tells the man she never
can love him or any other man be-
cause she has no faith in the species
and that she marries him because his
wealth will save her fathers for
tunes.
They are married, he confident he
can make her love him despite her
self and she determined to be a duti-
fui wife. but indifferent to affection.
The action centers about the heroic
measures adopted by the husband to
awaken the spark Of love in his wife,
and the development OF the story
provides screen entertainment OF fine
quality and great dramatic interest.
Alicia Ramsey wrote the story spe-
ciaIly for Miss Joyce, and the Vita
graph star portrays the difficult role
of the loveIess wife and mother in a
manner to win the entire sympathy
Of the viewers OF the film.

A THIRD READER
SCREEN PLAY

At least one great photopIay got
Is origin from a Third Reader. Per-
lapS that statement is a trifle unfair.
rhe fact is, however, that the. Third
Reader got the story from the old
classic myths. 1t was the story of
Pandora and her adventure with the
forbidden box, which she opened con-
.rary 10 orders and was rewarded for
Aer curiosity by letting lose in the
world the myriad Of troubles which
have been bothering US ever since.
The photoplay is Forbidden"
which is to be shown at Moore $
Rialto Theater next week.
The writing happened in this man
ner: z. v. Durling, New York new 8
paperman, was calling oil a noted
child actor in Los Angeles for an in
terview. Before he finished the inter-
view the child was called to take
part in one of the scenes OF a photo
play. While waiting for his re urn
Mr.. Durling picked UP a Third Reader
which the boy had laid down and
opened II to where a book mark had
been inserted at the story of Pandora
and the forbidden box.
s., The possibilities Of the story for a
scenario appealed to him and he went
home and wrote a story OF high life
in New York. Lois Weber liked IT.
saw its possibilities for screening and
bought the story.

THAT BIG FILM

The newest OF photodramatic spec
taeles. 1.-THE Birth of a Race" which
is attracting capacity audiences 1T the
BeIasco TheateF this week, comes di-
rect TO Washington after a long run
at two of Chicago's largest theaters.
This great drama of the films was
more than two years in the prepare
ton and employed the services OF the
EsEt scenario artists, most competent
players, most clever directors and eff
ficient photographers, and presents a
master work Of the world of celluloid.
The theme IL the story of peace, of
democracy. Of brotherhood. II traces
the history OF world advancement
from the Garden of Eden to the dawn
Of peace in the present year.
II is said to be one Of the most
graphic stories ever presented for the
enlightenment and entertainment OF
the spectator. Perhaps no great
photoplay has ever been prepared
with more earnest care, more careful
historical research, more truth, and
more eager effort.

ABE'S COMEDY

For many years Abe Reynolds has
been appearing in Spiegel produc-
tons, winning fame through the me-
drum Of Jacob Rosenbloom, a charac-
ter which he has made as famous az
any in burlesque, or, in fact. as any
on the American stage today. He
still. elings to Jacob, who is this year
kept busy extricating his son from
various escapades. But Jacob has q
hard time OF II, and everything in the
way of a scrape that he gets his son
out of he gets into himself. At last
he finds himself so badly involved
that he has to skip the country.
These situations make it possible for
the comedian to extract fun OF the
purest and most constant sort. and
the show Is, as a result. one OF the
best laughing shows. 1t is to be sean
Saturday and all next week at the
Gayety Theater.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27-Perhaps It's
just as well to call them spsrts.
Just when we were learning 10 say
bolsheviki, and were learning to give
1t about as universal an application
as we used to give TO eamouflase before
that sorely tried word was oflcislly en-
tombed by the Society for the Decent
Burial OF Haekneyed Words, along came
these Germans, with their Sehreeklieh-
keit and head cheese, and sprung spart-
aeus on US.
That was right in line with their
other unfair tactics, gas, name throw
ers. and gingerbread saloon-fronts.
But now that we have Spartacus with
US. what are we going to do about it,
The Spartaeus group" was the name
the German ultra-radicals adopted when
they first hung out their shingle In
the blood-letting business. But that
sort OF name never would do So. we

objection Is made 10 the aforementioned
designation because II is very close

is not lacking a considerable party
which claims that spartaelsm IS all OF
That and more. But, the endlng-eide,
from the Latin, caedo. to KILL always
kills whatever II Is added 10. Kills
what Il goes after, as 1t were. A
homicide is a man-killer, a suicide Is a
self-killer, and an inseetieide is an in
seot-killer. So. a Spartaeids would be
a Spartacus-killer. And that isn't what
we want 10 say at all.
In the same way a Spartaeusser might
be accused Of heaping profane invect-
i've upon a Spartacus and all his works,
and Spartacan might be suspected OF
being a mere sublrafuge for tying a can
on one end Of Spartseus, and you can
see very easily how a Spartaerat might
be mixed up with an aristocrat
Maybe It's just as well 10 call them
Sparts, or just sparts. and thereby avoid
complications.
The Sparts take their name from a
certain Mr.. Spartacus, whose initials

10 sell their bonds, they should never

Evening journal., 1919-01-28

There may be. we hope there Is, gen.
ersl agreement with the belief OF Mr.
McGarrah, president OF the Mechanics
and Metals National Bank and assistant
chairman OF the Central Liberty Loan
Committee OF New York, that the noxt
government loan should be Issued on
a business basis. II It is not so Issued
II will fail. There can be, however.
add no doubt there Is. wide difference
OF opinion as TO what under all cir
eumstances, Is the wiser and surer
bushes basis.
Il is Mr.. MeGarrah's view that for
the next issue and presumably for still
later issues which Will be necessary
the interest rate should be per cent.
But is there any certainty that a per
cent. interest rate Is the solution OF
the government problemi Is II a fact
that the gross interest rate means or
can mean as much 10 the investor on
business basis as the net interest
rate2
The big investor cannot get q net OF

taxes are going 10 be-and no man can
foretell such q thing-the gross rate
cannot poss bly, mean 10 him what an
Rbsoluteiy sure net rate mesns 10 him.
But we must also consider the duty
OF the government and the duty OF
everybody TO the little investors who
already have put their savings into bill
lions OF dollars OF the existing Liberty
Bonds. Those bonds are now well be-
low par. With a 5 per cent bond out
standing they would go eorrespondingly
further below par Government bonds
in the hands OF perhaps 20,o00,0o0 Amer
lean people would look TO them as sick
as the securities OF a fake mining

Now. the actual interest received by
