Olive Thomas, acclaimed by artists
as the most beautiful girl in Amer
lea, Is seen in an unusually novel
role in Youthful Folly" her latest
starring production. which opened
four-day run at Loew's Columbia
Theater yesterday as the feature OF

comes to the lonely girl when she is
visited by her second COUSIN. who

relative, Mrs. AinsIey. is unhappy
because she married for money. and
found out too late that she loved
I another man. Poor little Nancy,
however. sees Mrs. Ainsley only as
the type of that other world for

Fate finally brings to Nancy.s
home David Montgomery. the "other
man" in the life of Mrs. Ainsley.
Nancy falls in love with him imme-
diately Mrs. Ainsley then conceives
scheme whereby she may be near
David without risking scandal. Sne

Moore's RiaIto-"The Love Expert
The latest John Emerson and
Anita Loos attraction, featuring
one of Washington's favorite screen
stars, Constance Talmadge, was
presented by the First National Ex-
hibitors yesterday at Moore's Rialto
Theater.
As the central thought for this
picture the clever authors have
provided that, whereas this Is an
age of specialization, what would
be more natural than for young,
romantic girl to try and become an
expert in love? .>.s
Briefly. the story concerns one
Babs Hardcastle. who Is expelled
from boarding school because she
insists upon expounding romantic
theories regarding love. Her father
goes to Florida and sends the girl
to her Aunt Emily In Boston. The
latter has long been engaged to Jim
Winthrop. but Jim cannot marry
until his two sisters and aunt are
happy in wedlock. Babs persuades
all of them to accompany her TO
Florida. She compromises her
father with Jim's aunt and rounds
up husbands for the two girls,
eventually getting Jim for herself,
Constance Talmadge imperson-
ates the irresponsible Babs with
her customary dash and fascinating
charm. an excellent supporting cast.

c. Gardner Sullivan probably has
never written a more notable fiim
play than Sex" which opened at
CrandalPs Metropolitan Theater yes
terday. The narrative is unfolded
upon the screen with exceptional
clarity and forcefulness. The con-
tinuity is such as to produce the
illusion of actual life and to lend
the climax of the story a potency
that the cinema rarely attains.
The pivotal character in the de-
velopment of the plot is Adrienne
Renault. star of the "Frivolity
Roof" New York's gayest center OF
midnight revelry. Adrienne pur-
sues. and teaches to an unsophisti-
Gated chorus girl. philosophy OF
life which Is popularity supposed to
constitute the creed of all vampires.
In time, however. she falls genu-
inely in love with a young million
aire, retires from the stage and
marries him.
She is then confronted with a
condition which she herself has on
at least one occasion brought about
in previously tranquil home. Her
pupil alienates the affection of her
husband, just as she had alienated
the affection Of another's husband

Wounded in Hospitals
Said to Be Without Paw

New York, May 1G.-Red tape and
lost records have prevented scores
of wounded soldiers in New York
hospitals from drawing pay for
months, according to Mrs. Frances
Nibleck, of New Rochelle. She is
the daughter Of former Governor C.
n. Haskell of Oklahoma and served
as a nurse and Red Cross canteen
worker in France. She said to-
night:
of the 1000 wounded men in the
various hospitals many think they
have been forgotten. and their
plight is serious from the psyche
logical standpoint alone"
She has made two visits to Wash
ington and obtained pay for more
than fifty men.

MOore's Strand-NThe Servant 81
the House,

Acknowledged one of the greatest
successes in the history of the
American stage at the time of its
original showing, Charles Ram
kennedy's famous story THE Ser
want in the House." as presented
yesterday for its second consecu-
tive week at Moore's Strand Thea
ter, has been transformed into a
motion picture that not only sets
a new high mark in the film Indus
try but also has every Indication
OF meeting even greater public ap-
proyal and success than its stage
predecessor.
The current production is in
many ways a film masterpiece. A
great story told in the screen YER
sion with perfect continuity, a Sc
lected cast that is ideal. and splen-
did direction, all important factors
being combined into an ultimate
screen subject which is exceptional
to say the least. According to re-
port, it is a well known fact in
the cinema world that many big
minds doubted for years IL the
transformation from the stage to
the screen could be made in this
instance. 1t Eas been done and
the result is that THE Servant in
the House" picturized is a greater
production than it was a stage We
hicle. again proving that the screen
gives the widest possible scope for
the presentation of any theme that
can ever be offered in play form.

Loew's Palace Ethel Clayton in
"A Lady In Love-"

There is a human appeal about
the stories that Ethel Clayton has
been getting lately that registers
instantly with an audience and holds
the interest of everyone throughout.
She has effectively demonstrated in
The Thirteenth Commandment"
and Young Mrs. Winthrop" that
lavish settings and costumes are
not always requisites for good
motion picture: "A Lady In Love" "
in which she was well received at
Loew's Palace yesterday confirms
the impression.
Here is a homely little story of an
innocent convent girls marriage
with a man whom she hardly knew
and who later turned out to be a
cad with another wife and a child
living. Then came a real Prince
Charming in the form of manly
young lawyer, who, at her guard
ian's request, was taking steps to
