From the sordid slums of New York's
Chinatown to the grandeur of high noun
tains and the majesty of the ocean-that
is the range of the setting in ''The Miracle
Man," big new Paramount Aircraft
picture. produced by George Loane Tuck
er, which is coming Monday and Tuesday.
The same eXpanSiveness of vision is re-
Elected in the absorbing story. written by
Frank l.. Packard, later dramatized by
George M. Cohan, and produced with
striking success on Broadway.
The central figure is white-haired
patriarch, who lives in the hills near the
sea and who has reputed power to heal
the sick and crippled. Tom Burke and
his band in their haunt in the New York
und erworld read of his miracles and con
ceive the idea of capitalizing them for
their own gain. So they 60 to the town
where the OLD man lives and frame up a
miracle for him. To their surprise they
discover that he really possesses the heal
ing powers accredited to him.
Gradually under the beneficent influence
of their new environment there is worked
transformation in the hearts of the
crooks that makes Rose, the gangster's
beautiful decoy, the charming girl she is
at heart, that evolves farm hand out of
dope fiend, and finally, brings out the
better nature of even the hardened, So
phisticated Tom Burke himself. In the
hands of such capable artists as Thomas
Meighan, Elinor Fair, Joseph j. Bowling,
Betty Compson, and others of similar
merit, this powerful story becomes a
vital, living thing and one of the greatest
dramatic spectacles the screen has yet
revealed

Fair and Warmer" Thursday.

Coming this, Thursday, is May Allison
Specials, "Fair and Warmer" the Sell
wyn and Co. success, by Avery Hop
wood The picture is an adaptation of
presented on the American stage. Its
run in New York for two years, and else
where for fully as long; and its extended
vogue in London pronounce it that.
The advent of Miss Allison, easily one
of the most captivating of motion picture
condolences, in a new picture is event
enough; but in so celebrated 3 piece as
''Far and Warmer" those who follow
the screen here will be given an excep-
tional treat.
The story concerns. the tribulations of
two young married couples. In one case
the young wife complains that her hus-
band, Billy, is so perfect that he is dull;
and in the other case the young husband,
though he adores his wife, employs just
the tactics Billy should take advantage
of-he goes out of his way to keep his
wife guessing. And when circumstances
cast together Billy, and the apparently
neglected Blanny, the result is one of the
most absurdly funny series of situations
ever contrived, even by Mr.. Hopwood,
who is admittedly the premier farce
writer today in America.
The screen production has been done
deliberately, and in some instances the
original play has been given additional
punch through employment of means at
the command of the screen producer, but
impossible on the stage. Also on Thurs
day two-reel Rainbow comedy.

our soldiers The American people have
only to ask. their sons, brothers or hus
bands who faced dea h in the trenches as
to how great is their debt to the Salvation

do whatever he can to help this little
Army and l believe the people will be
satisfied to take the word of those who
