Allan Dwan's production, I'm the
Heart of~a Fool" released thru Assoc
ciated First National Pictures, Inc, is
expected to be- "a veritab1e screen sem
sation. 1t has enough big situations
to provide strong climaxes for several
average productions. Dwan's use OF
so many clmdxeS will, it is asserted,
mark a new and courageous depar-
ture in dramatic construction. Big
situations coming at regular intervals,
says Mr.. Dwan, do away with the
possibility of the spectators interest
tagging during the time it takes to
plant the action and to flash the big
climax it leads up to. His first dra-
matte headlight depicts a mine expo
sion with the attendant thrills of
burning mine shafts, with frenzied
miners trying to escape by means of
chain buckets. Next comes riot
scene with mobs battling in the streets.
Another big scene depicts the villain
about to toss a little boy to the mercy
of the mob. Interspersed with the
scenes. which draw their strength from
purely physical violence, are those
showing the clash of will, the heart
aches of unrequited love, and the
wrecking of lives by a beautiful tho
unprincipled woman.
Every Kansan will be interested in

than that it is taken from the book

Booked To Appear In Topeka.
Miss Olive Kline, a young Ameri
can soprano who has APPEARED in con-
certs turnout the country during the
past three years. has made unusual
progress in her art, and in the long
list of enga geTnents this year, she will
be heard in many cities. In several of

only three years ago that her voice

an offer from the Metropolitan Opera,
and achieved a very wide popularity
thru her fine talking machine records.

Altho gifted with what has been
termed by Herbert Witherspoon as
lone OF the most beautiful voices ever
heard in America Miss Kline is an
accomplished pianist; in fact she
studied for the concert stage, and it
is only natural that her musical train
ing should have developed the uner-
ring intelligence SO noticeable in her
work.
The date arranged for the appear
ance of this young artist in this city
on the Topeka Concert series, under
the management of H. J. Dotterweich,
is March 18th, 1921, and that her sing
ing will arouse great. interest and
make a deep impression is thoroly
assured.
