 TO BE AT THE STRAND
 TODAY AND MONDAY

Some sage has said: fIt's a wise son who knows his own father" Meaning that man places his faith in his woman blindls and sometimes he awakes to find the boy he has been cherishtng is not his own. Arthur Wing Pinero, most gifted of English speaking dramatist. wrote for the great John Drew q play. He called it His Bonse in Order and took for his text the very same Subje.' that "a baffled many a man since cave days-the if delity of his mate.
 Pinero. master Of stage craft, builded his story around an Englishman of title, who marries his sons governess after the death of the boys mother. He does two things: He flies in. the face of the traditions of his class, when he marries beneath his station in life and starts to compare his newest wife with the one that has gone to the detriment of the living one.
 And then he discovers that the dead wife was unfaithful to him all the years of their marriage and that the boy he has loved and looked upon as his own flesh and blood, the boy whom he has reared to perpetuate his title and his proud family name, is not his own at all but the offspring of the lover of his wife. Not a sweet spring song story, you will say but the kind of a story that turks in many a house hold The kind of a six eleton that rat ties it's dry bones in the closet of the rich perhaps more frequently than that of the poor Pinero the satirist, makes of this sordid subject a smart story from which the screen dramatist has also builded a smart society picture and the film people none other thar the great Paramount concern has lef' nothing undone to serve 1t as a master work of the photogra pher's art.
 Starting at the very moment of it: Inception as a silver sheet possibility they have selected one Of the mos beautiful women in the world-Elsit F-erpuson-as the beautiful governess which assures two things: The splen-
