The interest of local theatre
goers has been aroused to unusual
pitch by the announced appearance
at the Ditmas theatre today of the
latest Universal-Jewel master
feature. THE Virgin of StambouL"
with Priscilla Dean as the star and
directed by Tod Browning.
II has been nearly a year since
Priscilla Dean has flashed on a
local screen, and her return is
everywhere pronounced as a tri-
umph.
'The Virgin of Stamboul' was
written especially for Miss Dean
by H. H. Van Loan. and the author
has endeavored to paint a picture
of 1.-THE wickedest city in the
world" Director Browning has
faithfully followed his story and re-
produced his word painting in
living, breathing scenes. Vast
cities were built for the produce
ton, famous landmarks reproduced
with marvellous realism. the Great
Arabian Desert filmed for many
scenes in the story and thousands
of men. women and children used
for atmospheric effect.
The story is said to be rich in
dramatic quality. arousing SYM
pathy and suspense, causing n
spectators to smile, and weep, and
with a wealth of red-blooded
action to set the pulses throbbing.

Thursday.
II is described as a mystery comedy
drama with setting in London. II
concerns the adventures of an Ameri-
can who goes to sleep one night as
plain Victor Jones, of Philadelphia,
and awakes the next morning as h
Earl of Rochester, with a houseful
of ornate servants and disagreeable
relatives, a beautiful wife from
whom he is supposed to be estranged,
and a reputation that makes him
one OF the most stunned men In Eng
lish polite society.
Poor Jones has an equally hard
time living up to the title or trying
to get away from it, and his
numerous odd adventures are said
to constitute one of the most remark
able comedy dramas ever presented
on the screen. and a production fully
worthy of Mr.. Faversham's talents.

imagined A group of men and women suddenly flung on
a desert isle. Master and man, mistress and maid-now only
males and females.
Birth, wealth, trappings, vanished. A new life, calling to
a test of worth, where those who are strong lead, and those whod
are weak follow.
Such is this great story. Ranging from the splendid home
Of an English earl to savage scenes in a tropical jungle, from
nice conventions of the cultured elite to uncontrolled passions
of ancient Babylon.
An epic of love and struggle, vital in theme, stupendous
in conceptions, amazingly dramatic, beautiful beyond words.
