REVERE NAME OF SINGER IN
MODJEsKA'S HOME TOWN
(By United Press)


Posnan, Poland. (By Mail.)-No
Polish name during the past quarter
of a century was better known. eth
er in Poland or America, than that
lof Modjeska, the famous Shakespear-
ian actress, who was exiled by Rus
STA from her native land because OF
her too ardent patriotism, but who
continued to fight for Poland in her
own way during her long artistic
career in the United States.
Although she died before Poland's
independence was finally won, Mod
jeska never gave up hope that her
country would be free. And today
though she is no longer in the fight
her family here in Poland are fore
most among the leaders who are car
rying on the work of rebuilding their
country after five years of devastat-
ing war.
The day the first American Red
Cross relief train entered Poland, it
was met by a group of children, led
by young lady, all carrying arpfuls
of flowers because there was nothing
else left to offer the Americans" The
girl was Modieska's niece, and the
children some Of the war orphans she
had already begun to care for.

REX-SUNpAY: FORTY FIVE
MINUTES FROM BROADWAY

TheatergOers seem to nave never
gotten enough of George M. Cohan's
successful comedy drama, "Forty-tive
Minutes From Broadway picturiz-
alton Of which has just been released
through the First National with
Charles Ray III the title role.
This tremendously popular piece
was first written by Mr.. Conan for
Miss Fay Tempietpn. then at the
zenith of her career and had its first
stage presentation with her and Vic
tor Moore in the leading roles, at the
Southern theatre in Columbus, Ohio,
in August, 1904. Three days later
this piece was taken to the Colonial
thcater in Chicago, where it ran for
MANY weaks. being the means OF saw
ing this theatre as a place or amuse-
ment. as it had form erlv heen the
i,l-fated Iroquois. and Chicago thea
ter-e GERS had not forgotten thesterri-
be holocaust that had resulted in
tire loss of so many Of their dear ones.
Following its engagement at this
theater, "Forty-hve Minutes From
Broadway played all of the prom
inent cities of this couiitry, including
New York. ond everywhere it proved
a tremendous success. Then, when
it he'd apparently outlived its useful
ness Mr. Cohan shelved it.
And now in pictures, it bids fair
t. even beat the records achieved by
it on the spoken stage and Charles
Ray has proven to be more than wor-
thy Of assuming the role so splen-
didly handled by Victor Moore and
George NJ. Cohan.
Mary was and is the principal fem
inc role in "Forty-five Minutes From
Broa dway," and in her, Mr.. Conan
has created one of the dearest and
sweetest stage characterizations OF
his career So much so, that after
the tremendous success registered by
the piece, he has never rested content
until he used the good old name as
the title of play. And now Mary
has been given to the public in a mo-
ton picture offering. 1t will be seer
at the Rex on Sunday with Charlie:
Ray in the old Cohan part.

DEEP PURPLE" A
THRILLING DRAMA

In "The Deep Pprple,' r.. "A.
Walsh's film version Of Paul Arm
strong's and Wilson Miners fam1us
play, patrons of the motion picture
will view something new in the way
of crime depletion on the screen.
The photoplay is showing tonight
and Sunday at the Grand theatre
and represents one of the best screen
offerings presented here in some time.
Suspense is we'll sustained, and d.
rector Walsh, now an Independent
prod1cers has succeeded I'M developing
a crook play from new angle.
The story deals with the adven-
lures of Doris Moore, an unsoph1stl-
Gated country lass who goes from her
upstate home to New. York city, to
become enmeshed in the evil designs
of Harry Leland, a professional black
mailer. The part Of Doris Moore is
vividly portrayed by Miriam Cooper,
whose compelling work wins un-
bounded sympathy from her audience.
Vincent Serrano, who created one or
the leading roles in Augustus Thom-
as ARIZONA" wins many hates for
himself as the villainous Leland.
The climax of the play occurs when
Leland is shot by an ex-convict whom
he had "double-crossed.' The shoot
ing takes place when Gordon Lay
lock, the former convict, discovers
Leland abusing the girl Laylock is
saved from arrest by William Lake,
mining engineer and hero. who tells
the police he saw the murdered man
commit suicide. This, of course, pro-
tects the girl from the hot tongue of
scandal. Leland had attempted to
victimize Lake, using the girl as
tool. Lake, however, saw thru the
Plot, fell in love with the girl and
resolved to rescue her from the in
f,uence Of the blackmailer. 1t was
his attempt to test her honor that
resulted in bringing Leland into room
where he was killed. The role of
Lake is ably done by Stuart Sage,
while William B. Mack makes very
convincing ex-convict. Helen Ware
who gives a splendid character study
in Kate Fallon, shows that no matter
what circumstances may make or
woman, there is always deep in her
the dominant element of good.
There are some very spectacular
scenes in this picture, one of which
shows a cabaret in which Bird Mill
man, celebrated aerial performer,
;; does some thrilling work on a taut
wire. If 1.-THE Deep Purple is cri-
terion of the R. A. Walsh produc-
lions. may more Of them come to the

DANCE NOVELTIES
SHOWN IN FILM

Constance Binney, the charming

Realart star, viii will appear with
erner' as a special Labor Day pro-
gram at the Grand theatre Monday
in the Rachel Crothers play, "39
East" first won the applause OF the
public as dancer In ''On' Lazy
Lady," She has several opportun-
tiles to dance in her new picture, as
she had in "The Stolen Kiss"
The first dance that Miss Binney
executes in "39 East" is a typical
darby jig, done on the rug of her
humble boarding house room to the
accompaniment of "Dixie," whistled
by herself. This is done when the
heroine is supposed to be suffering
from homesickness, and though it
starts in slow, forced way, it ends
in a whirlwind of kicks.
The next dance is executed on the
grass at Central Park to the music
of an organ grinder. This time the
heroine is in the ecstacies Of joy and
she dances with abandon, "jazzy,'
wild dance. The third and last time
the little heroine INDUCES in 1.-The
light fantastic" is on the stage of a
Broadway theatre when she has on
the beautiful costume Of a premiere
danseuse and executes some of the
difficult classic steps of which Miss
Binney is so capable.
Reginald Denny, well-known New
York actor, is Miss Binney's leading
man. The remainder Of the cast is
the same as in the stage version:
John S. Robertson, of "Dr. Jekyll
and Mr.. Hyde" fame, was the d.
rector.

dancing party given by The Anona club last night was enc of the most unique and brilliant affairs of the Leap Year social calendar There was much speculation up to last eve ing as to whether or not the ladies would be real sports and make the party real Leap Year affair. They showed, however, that they were game by each lady paying the subscription as indicated on the invitation, and the treasurer hinted that the receipts were far in excess of dances given by the Anonas recently.
 Excellent music was furnished and the merry dancers enjoyed them selves till late hour. During the in- termission many of the ladies escort ed their gentlemen friends to nearby confectionery shows to be treated to drinks. It was four years ago that the club was organized and it is said that their first dance was a Leap Year party, similar to the one given last night.
