Claim Of League Of Veterans of
World War.

New YOrk.--A resolution demanding
the elimination of Shakespeare's Mac
beth" from school curriculums on the
ground that 1t was libel on the
Scotch in its "mlsinterpretation in pre-
sentlng King Macbeth as n traitor and
murderer" was adopted here by the
League Of Scottish veterans of the
world war.
The resolution was addressed to the
Newark IN. j. board of education,
which recently barred "The Merchant
of Venice from the schools because
Of the alleged SANDER TO the Jewish
race.
"If they have banned Shylock, see
no reason why they should not ban
Macbeth" said Capt Ian McTavish.
IF the Jewish gaberdine is to be
cleaned they should also remove the
stain from the Scottish kilt"

Tn FOlly's Trail With Miss Myers
 Billed at Lyric

The mother of Carmel Myers. dain- ty young screen star, whose latest production, "In Folly's Trail" is an nounced for Lyric theater. relates an incident concerning her daughter which illustrates the sincerity and per severance which have made this slip of girl a star of the silent drama and the musical comedy stage before she has reached her twentieth year.
 When Miss Myers, little over a year ago. decided that her education was not complete without at least a season on the speaking stage, she re- fused all offers for further film con- tracts. packed her trunks and. accom- panied by her mother. journeyed to New York. Here, although she was known as film star, no one had ever heard of her work on the speaking istage-for the very good reason that she had only appeared in the films up to that time.
 Her popularity with the public however, secured her a hearing from every prominent New York producer, and the engagement she finally 2c- cepted was that of the leading femi- Inine role in "The Magic Melody" a Shubert production. But the part re- quired an operatic voice and the aD1l- Iity to dance well-two accomplish ments Miss Myers had never cultivat- ed. Her mother tells that in the eight weeks the operatta was being re- hearsed Carmel worked sixteen hours a day with vocal instructor ane with dancing master, and by the time the piece was ready for it's Broadway opening Miss Myers sang like a nightingale and danced like butterfly. The New York newspapers were a unit in their praise of the little star, and every reviewer wondered at her extreme cleverness in the arts of the musical comedy stage.

Anthony Hopes exciting roman tic story, Captain Dieppe," has

First published as a novel, the adventures of the flashing young secret service agent proved worthy companion of the authors earlier book, The Prisoner of Zenda," which was the starting point of a flood of pseudo-historical literature. Tlse popularity of "Cap- tain Dieppe" led MT Hope to dra- matize it and the stage play was produced both here and abroad. Re gently the story was made into scenario and under thf title of "An Adventure in Hearts" it will be shown at the Eagle theatre Tuesday and Wednesday and Central theatre

The menace of hidden enemies runs throughout the Goldwin Picture, Dangerous Days" which comes to the Central Theater today and Mon day and gives rise to some of the big gest of its situations. Enemy aliens seeking to combat America's effective ness in the World War, plot against industry and against individuals, and plan the destruction of both. Dyna- mite is a favorite tool f such des- troyers. and in Dangerous Days" they use 1t in an endeayor 10 kill ana terroriZe. k
 There is in bis production the most vivid picture of the blowing up of a munitions plant ever screened. The filming of these scenes, interior and exterior, required much time, a large number of extras, the construc- tion of complicated sets, and the use of the scenes were taken. Much of the work was done at night.
 One interior scene depicts the office of the munitions plant. The crash of the explosions in various parts of the plaS ts wrecks the office complete ly. Miss Barbara Castleton, in the role of Audrey Valentine, remains in the office, and, with wreckage falling around her, operates the switchboard and sends for help. She narrowly avoided injury. when the scene was taken, heavy timbers and pillars top- bling close to her.
 Explosvies of much force were used in the picture. Some of the scenes

were taken about the plant of a large iron works in Los Angeles. The works were the object of bomb plot, in reality, some time ago, and when, at night. persons in the vicinity heard the thunder of the explosions as the pictures were being taken, some were terror-stricken, believing it a repeti- tion of the previous effort to wreck the plant.
 The results achieved in the filming iof the destruction of the great muni- Itions plant make 9 sequence of scenes unsurpassed in motion pictures for sheer realism, gripping intensity, and dramatic strength.
 The story is from the pen of Mary Roberts Rinehart, and is a Reginald Barker production of the Eminent Authors Series being filmed at the Goldwyn Studios in Culver City.
