GEDDES URGES CLOSER
TIES between NATIONS
British Ambassador Declares
"Welfare Of One Country Is
Welfare of Another
" tie AssncIated Prs.

By the Associated Press.
RED SPRINGS, y. c., October 10
Standing under the American flag.
with the British Union Jack to his
right and the flag of Canada to his
left, Sir Auckland Geddes, British
ambassador to the United States,
speaking before the Scottish Society
of America in session here, made a
plea for a better understanding of
international problems by the peo-
ple-the voters of the county
whom he styled as the real rulers
in democratic countries.
The price of peace between great
nations today, whose ideas of democ-
racy are similar, is eternal vigilance
over the policies adopted by these
nations. the ambassador declared.
Eternal vigilance can only be main
tanned by educating the people to
the understanding of these policies,
he continued. The ambassador said
no nation can stand alone, because
the, welfare of the one is the well
fare of the other. The United States
and Great Britain are bound by ties
of trade, by ties of blood and by
ties of thought, he added. and these
governments cannot get away from
international relations.

CHAPTER N.
UNDER A CLOUD.

Exactly one week later six men were
smoking their after-dinner cigars at
the same round table in the dining room
room at the Sheridan Club. AS a
rule 1t was the hour when. with all
the reserve of the day thrown aside.
badinage and Jest reigned supreme,
and the humorist came to his own.
Tonight chairs were drawn little
closer together, voices were subdued,
and the conversation was of more
serious order. Not even the pleasant
warmth of the room. the fragrance of
tobacco and the comfortable sense of
having dined could altogether dispel
a feeling Of uneasiness which all
more or less shared. II chanced that

And his movements that night. or
rather that morning. were eertaihly a

Bauer and Thibaud Appear as
Chief Soloists on Carnegie
Hall Program

If contributing to worthy causes
were always made as pleasant as it was
for those who attended the concert
given in Carnegie Hall last evening
they should all prosper. The occasion
was one of a series of three benef
for the Margaret McGill scholarship
endowment, arranged by the alumni
association of the Institute of Musical
Art.
The program enlisted the services of
some of the most admired artists ow
before the public, Harold Bauer and
jacques Thlbaud appearing as princi-
pal soloists, assisted by Mischa Levitzki
and Sascha Jacobsen and a small or
chestra Of strings and wind directed
by Willem Willeke
Messrs. Bauer and Levitzki. accom-
panied by the orchestra, were associ-
ated in well-knit performance of Mo-
zart's Concerto in f fiat for two pianos.
This was followed by the Schumann
"Papiilons" and a Chopin ballade,
played by Mr.. Bauer; a Mozart "An-
dante" and the Saint-Saens "Rondo Ca

On the Screen
Marion Davies Is Excellent i'm
Buried Treasure" at the
Criterion
By Harriette UnderhilI

Marion Davies does such excellent
work in Buried Treasure" at the Cri-
terion Theater that you ask why she
has, been hiding her light under a
ousheI all these seasons. Not only has
she developed screen personality, but
shc does some real acting, and you
wonder if it can possibly be the same
girl who played "Cecelia of the Pink
Roses" not so long ago.
You probably will say that the story
IS nonsense, but you're bound to be
entertained, for the picture is lavish
~ staged and very we'll done. If you
are going to take Buried Treasure"
seriously you've got to believe in re-
incarnation and you've got to believe
that it is possible to have visions of
the past.
Miss Davies plays Pauline Wander
muellen, young society person, who
is convinced that she was a Spanish
senorlta not so long ago. She loves a
young DR.. Grant, but her father, "the
pirate of Wall Street." insists that she
marry the Due de Chavannes. In a
series OF frances it is revealed to her
that her father was a pirate, the Due
another pirate and her lover, then
John Standish, was murdered and
buried in the grave with tie treasure.
AL OF this is shown in the picture, and
white it must have been rather a har-
rowing experience for the young lady,
1T makes good screen material. Anders
Randolph is very convincing as the
pirate father. In the supporting cast
are Norman Kerry, Edith Shayne, Earl
Schenck, John Charles and Thomas
Findlay.
There is one scene in the picture
which calls loudly for the title "Alas,
poor Yorick! ] knew him we'll" We
wonder how they ever happened to
overlook this. George Baker directed
the picture, which was made from the
story by f. Britten Austen.
The picture is so long that the only
other thing on the program is a pro-
logue "In a Spanish Garden" This is
an elaborate singing and dancing act,
with Eduardo Albano, Vera Meyers,
Paul Oscard and the Criterion chorus.
