Clara Kimball Young Pleases in
Eyes Of Youth" at the
RixoIi Theatar

Rising above the ruck Of usual mo-
tion pictures, eyes of YOUTH" pre-
sented at the Rivoi Thcater this week,
shows strength and finish. The stage
presentation in New York of the some
what farfetched story by Max MARGIN
and Charles Guern6n has paved the
way for the picture, which is vital in
conception and elaborate in execution.
Clara kimbal Young is seen at her
best and is most versatile throughout.
Technically she is hawess in the pic
ture, but to those who are not particu-
larly enthusiastic she seems a trife
hard and soulless at times
There is a touch Of Oriental magic
in dyes of Youth" that saves it from
utter s.k-lired conventionality. The
Yogi comes cut OF the East with his
glass, and Clara kimball Young, as
Glna isA!lng. is enabled 10 project her
self i've years into the future The
chance comes to her at an opportune
moment as she stands hcsitating be-
tore three different roads-0no the
srlmy, tear-stained road of dutv TO
ones family; another the lure of op-
cratic fame; the third marrying for
money rather than for love Through
the power of the magic glass she is
able TO see all the way down the mis-
cradle curves Of the three roadwavs to
their tragic endings. She sees herself
giving up everything for her family
and turning INFO q prim old maid, the
butt OF those for whom she has sacrl-
feed herself. Again. she sees herself
a famous opera star, but hardened by
l. 1 .-,
sees herself the neglected wife Of a
rich man. finally forced into the di-
vorce courts and disgraccd through in
trigue. IN the final analysis, the poor
but handsome man she really loves
saves her from degradation. And, when
the glass IS laid aside, She throws off
the shackles Of duty TO her family,
scorns operate fame, renounces the
rich man and, Of course, marries the
man she loves.
The picture is a strong argument
egainst the lifelong devotion Of 8
daughter 70 her parents, brothers and
sisters. 1t breaches revolt against ma
terial things and is an imperceptiblc
but forcibe plea for the triumph of
love, even on q selfish basis
The pictorial work Of Eyes of
Youth" is excellent. Vincent Serrano
is striking as the Yogi. Edmund Lowe
makes a satisfactory lover. Gareth
Hughes, Pauline Starke, Sam Sothern,
Milton Sills. Ralph Lewis and William
Courtleigh handle their parts well.
But Clara kimball Young is never out
of sight for moment, and at times
she l. really quite superb. In none Of
her pictures has she been more
effective, possibly because none has
yielded equivalent opportunity.
In keeping with the theme OF tho
feature picture is the weird "Hindoo
Prayer" chanted BY Betty Anderson,
Emanuel List and a chorus. Miss An
derson is singing for the third week.
Professor Frmn Swimmer plays the
organ solo, Genard's "Caprice."
Jeanie Macpherson's screen drama,
.Male and Female" based on THE
Admirable Crichton," which was shown
for the first time at the RNoh last
week. is at the Rialto this week.

when the enthusiasm slackcned, they

when she returned. "lier gang seemed

In addition, SIC explained her own
