Aliens deep affection for his brother has resulted in spelling Dick to the extent of his 5 being intolerant of any opposition to his will This tendency leads to a violent quarrel between Dick and one of his young friends, culninating in a stand-up fight in which Dick acci- dentally kills his friend. Despite all ; Allen could do to prevent, his brother : Is convicted and sentenced to death : through the clever prosecution of a young district attorney, Cortland Wainwright Allen, now full of hatred 61r the man ne planes for his broth CTS unjust sentence, swears he will gain revenge.

To look at lovely Helene, with her coat of soft velvet, trimmed with gray squirrel, and her little tricOrEe hat of black velours, you wouldn't think that she liked best to be in trousers, would you?
 Shes a regular boy, is Helene, and as her favorite pastime is mountain climbing, you can un- derstand why she likes to wear 'em- For you simply COULDN'T wear skirts when shinning up a steep and high mountain!
 When Miss Chadwick goes for an overnight hike, she doesn't burden herself with a complete pantry and kitchen outfit. Just a. few things for supper and break fast, blanket to roll up in, a good knife and a pockeful of matches.
 There is nothing so stimulat- ing as a good long climb up these California mountains with the promise of seeing sunrise the next morning from the summit After that, l come back to the studio with enough energy to do what ever is needed," she says.
 But this little Goldwyn star has other interests besides her work and her hobbies. She is a must clan of splendid attainments, and
 
 concert pianiSte. She has been studying ever since she was lit tie girl, and as her mother was Q famous English concert singer, she comes by it honestly.
 Helene's name is the same as the little town in which she was bOrn-Chadwick New York But, contrary to the usual custom, she didn't take the towns name for her own-she gave her name to the town For her forebears es- tab1ished the great Chadwick silk mills there, that section finally taking the name of the mills, which it has retained ever since.
 Her last appearance here on the screen was in Goddess Men, which showed at Polls some time ago, and is booked for a reap pearance at the West End tonight. Her last picture is Dangerous Curve Ahead" which will be shown here soon.
 Helene is a pretty little thing. Her expressive face is wreathed in lark brown hair, bobbed, and her dark eyes can flash fire when the director tell them to. But ordi- narily they are nmpid and sweet.

His Mistake. Once, Tony made a, big mistake at a time he didn't know it, And now he wonders why his girl goes to shows with Barney Lowft. One day he met her on the street-on shopping she was bound, And her answer to his question was: You're a garlick hound. You remember when you took me to the movie show that night, Just fifteen weeks ago today. if l recall it right. But still I can remember that nau- seating smell; Those garlick fumes escaping from whom I need not tell'

In "Hush!" which is the screen at traction at Polls today, tomorrow and Saturday, Clara Kimban Young has an ideal vehicle for her beauty and her histrionic power.
