PLAZA.


 The crowds surely turned out last night to see Constance Talmadge in her latest production, Happiness a la Mode They must have all been satisfied, too, for the picture is very good and bids fair to have a phe- nonenal run here, at the Plaza sHarpiness a Ia. Mode is the story of Barbara, Townsend, who wishes to make a success of married life and allows her husband, Dick, so much freedom that he attributes it to a lack of interest in him. Dorothy Mitchell takes advantage of his fool ings and cajoles Dick into the idea of getting divorce from Barbara When he announces this to his wife, her pride asserts itself and she ac- quiesces The story is a, mighty in- teresting one.
 Among the vaudeville hits are Ju- I1et La France and Co. in Q lavish singing and dancing extravaganza, "A Night in Paradise Longacre Trio, in "Komical Konversation, the famous Dacing McDona1ds in a series of novelty dances, Rene and Flor ence, a sister team in variety oi songs and dances, Pearl White, ir >.rhe Black Secret" by Robert w Chambers, first run Internationa- News and other features complete the bill.

WEST END.
 Flame of the Desert" the latest Go1dwyn Picture starring Geraldine Farrar and Lou Tellegen, will be seen at the West End theatre tonight.
 Romantic love appeal and political intrigue form the basis of this re- markable story. The Egyptian desert peoples invoke the curse of Allah against foreign inf1dels and plot to overthrow British rule in Egypt. An uprising of this sort, however, has been suspected. and for years Sheik Essad (Uou Te1legen) in reality a British army officer. has lived among the people of the Sahara and learned of their plans. In London at the Vic tory Ball, he meets Lady Isabella Charming (Gera1dine F'arrar.) A great love theme is at once developed and when romance is carried to Cairo, Lady Isabella is tormented by the dictates of her heart and her pride of race. As the plot unfolds, the keen est faculties of Sheik Essad, the sup posed Egyptian, are called into play in defending his government; and even before his real identity is learn ed, the woman he loves is called upon to prove the real depths of her feeling guson and others.
 Among the players in the splendid supporting cast of Flame of the Desert are Edythe Chapman, Alec Francis, Macey Harlan, CaSson Fer son and others.

EMPIRE.

NazImova, in Stronger Than Death the main attraction al thu Empire theatre. The brilliant Rus sian star is seen in a role that splen- didly displays her almost uncanny powers as a mistress of the human emotions. It is that of a London dancer who finds love in India, that land of mystery which has figured so much in recent prose, poetry and dra- matic literature.
 Stronger Than Death,' was adapt ed for the screen from the widely read novel by 1. A. R. Wylie. It re- counts the adventures of Sigrid, the dancer, and the man she adores- fhe hermit doctor of Gaya. He is a physician who devotes his time to fighting a cholera epidemic among the natives.
 Strong cross currents run deep through the narrative. The biggest dramatic scene is where Sigrid hies to the steps of the Temple for a dance in the moonlight Her presence there IS regarded by the natives, who are even then planning a massacre, as the returned spirit of the sacred dancer of the temple "the bride o. Vishnu."
 In the splendid cast supporting tn, star are Charles Bryant, as the her Iait doctor: Charles W. French, Her bert Prior, Margaret McWade, MiIIi.

LYRIC.

Thrills galore, tragic climaxes and a vein of humor second to none will be found in that sensational dramatic attraction, '"The Woman in Room 3' which opened at the Lyric theatre this afternoon.
 The play tells an interesting and captivating story which introduces police methods and the manner in which mysteries are solved by sleuths of the detective departments. A wo- man separates from her husband when she finds that he is unfaithful and marries again. Her second hus- band becomes suspicious of the atti- tude of his rich employer toward his wife and engages detectives to watch her. The first husband enters in an unusual role which is the biggest scene in the play. The production throughout is cleverly written and fairly teens with tense excitement tragic clin1axes and thrills.

Labor and the Harvest.

An interesting and enlightening common
tary on the rapidly changing labor situation
in the country is carried in letters received by
Fred W. Rinek, superintendent of the local
free employment bureau from employment Of
fcials Of western states.
Harvest hands, it is reported from both the
Dakotas and Kansas, are plentiful And in fact
there are more men than there are Jobs for
them" Wages being paid average from So to
$3.50 day, with board and lodging; but it is
predicted this rate will be increased somewhat
when the real harvest season opens in ten
days or two weeks.
At the same time, it is announced that the
pennsylvania railroad has laid OH 10000 men
on one division of its lines
That a surplus of labor is rapidly being
created in many lines Of industry is evidenced
by these reports. How far the pendulum will
swing and what effect its trend will have on
the industrial and financial world this fall
and winter is too early to state and far too
hazardous to even prophecy.

Waving the Rim Bottle.

For many long years after the Civil war
politicians on both sides Of the Mason and
Dixon line made political capital out Of the
S(Fife between the north and the south.
r By."waying the bloody shirt" these unscrup-
ulous political tricksters kept themselves in
once, and postponed the solution Of many Inn
portant national problems. They 'fought tho
- over again in the north ana down in
Dixie land from the stump and at the polls. i
And now, 1t sesms. there 10 the same desire
70 hight over again the battle with rum. For
ths same selfish motives-to win public ohies,
to regain or retain control Of the nations
a5airs.
Amy politician, wet or dry. who drags from
tho grave the buried liquor question In this
campaign is no better than those who waved
the bloody shirt in the 7O's and sos.
And yet some leaders in both parties insist
on waving the rum bottle. unmindtul that 1t
was smashed when the prohibition amendment
became part of the. American constitution.

that haze been written since, or were writer

Telling 1t to the Turk.

Sign the peace treaty at once, and re-
establish your authority in Anatolia SO as to
make the treaty effective is the dictum Of the
allies to the bothersome, brutal Turk In 9TH
er words sign on the dotted line, or get out
Of the way" This new message to the sultan's
government is couched in very straightforward
terms that if these directions are not forthwith
obeyed, the allies will "eject the Turks from
Europe once and for ALL And the Turk finally
yielded. 49,
1t was good talk, but it was somewhat be-
lated A mistaken idea of policy, combined
with conflicting selfish interests, prevented the
allies from presenting the expected drastic
treaty in the first place. The sultan was cod
died, and every conceivable effort was made to
avoid wounding Ottoman sensibilties. The re-
sdlts were Mustapha kemal Pasha's defiance
in Asia Minor and the usual Turkish dicker-
ing, begging and evadng by the authorities at
Constantinople. Things drifted from bad to
worse till the allies, despairing of bringing the
Turks to reason by mere words, turned the
Greeks loose in Anatolia. Now Mustapha
Kemal Pasha is on the run, and the oleaginous
statesmen at Constantinop1e have no bugaboo
with which to brighten the allies.
The world is heartily sick Of the Turk No
one except the policy mongers who love him
for his possibilities as major piece in the
game Of international politics is seriously in
favor Of giving the Turk anything more or
less than exact justice
Exact justice demands Just about the alter
native that the allies have finally decided upon
and to which the Turk has for the time being
subscribed.
