Barrie Enthusiastic Over Film Version of "Senti-
 mental Tommy"

London, March 31-Sir James M Barrie has held the center of the cinematographic stage here recently, because he, more than any of the British writers who have embraced motion pictures, has been getting his ideas translated to the cel1uloid.
 At the projection room of the Fa- nous Players studio here last week he saw the first private showing of the film version of his Sentimental Tommy which was filmed in a spe- cia4lly constructed Scotch village built near the Paramount studio in New York Sir James was most enthusi- astic about the sympathetic treatment given his whimsical characters by John s. Robertson, who directed the production, and expressed his admira- ton of the work of Gareth Hughes as Sentimental Tommy"
 On the arrival of Ado1ph Zukor, president of Famous Players-Lasky, Sir James discussed plans for the production of Peter Pan," which is to be filmed in America whither Sir James expects to journey within a. few months As to the actress who will enact the role no conclusion was reached

PLAZA.

The long hera1ded Paramount super-play, "Behold My Wife," has finally arrived at the Plaza theatre where it starts a three-day showing today. Behold My Wife" is a. tre- mendous George Melford production adapted from Sir Gilbert Parker's Ia nous story. '"The Translation of a Savage Enlbittered with life, a proud aristocrat sneeringly married an Indian squaw. Then he sent her home to disgrace his family and sank to the dregs in the lumber camps Of the North. One day the man in him aiwoke and seeking the pitiful crea- ture he had wronged. he found a ra- diant, beautiful woman. The cast in cludes Milton Stills, Elliott Dexter and Mabel Ju1ienne Scott.
 '"Tricked" is the feature act for to- day The title sounds like a detective play, a deep melodrama full of creeps and thrills it is however, just the op' poSite. It is a comedy novelty with music. Alfred Powell and Vernie and Company offer a. dance and live wire singing revue of high and pleasing quality. Lambert Brothers with banjo, violin and piano range from Berlin to RubinStein in Moments Musical" Other acts and a Christie comedy special, "A Homespun Hero" complete the bill

BY ZELDA BEDELL.

It's hard to imagine movie star reading Epictetus, that great Greek philosopher; that earnest, sometimes stern, sometimes pathetic preacher of righteousness, who believed that the problem of how life is to be lived well is the one problem that throws all others in the shade.
 But Elliott Dexter does- His idea of a nice vacation is getting into quiet corner with bis pipe and one of the "Discourses of Epictetus," though 'tis a weighty tome.
 Perhaps an explanation of Elliott affHction for the iovable doctrinist lies in the fact that Epictetus was lame from birth. Elliott, you know, was i'll for more than year, and it was expected that he, too, would be lame upon his recovery But he wasn't. Not only was he spared this misfortune, but his health is now bet ter than it ever has been, and surely his work is better-as one can see in Behold My Wife, in which he plays the masculine lead. This absorbing play is being presented in Bridgeport now, and Elliott's work is most of what makes it entertaining.
 Limousine Didn't Fit.
 He likes the simple life, does Dex- ter, and he says he can live it right in Hollywood, where he has a little bungalow. He even drives :; FORD, having some time ago disposed of two aristo ocratic because they didn't fit the house, somehow, he explained, with a quie1 smile.

FINDS MUSIC TO BE CURE
 FOR INDUSTRIAL UNREST

The latest addition to the large group of cities that have already realized that music is a most import ant factor in QuelIing industrial un- rest and promoting efficiency among it's workers is Worcester, Mass. It was through the American Steel & Wire Company that this city learned its great lesson.
 About 5000 persons are employed by the American Steel & Wire Com pany and since the musical develop ment in this plant there has been a great decrease in the labor turnover and a much reduced percentage of absentees. Hast year the employees refused to join in a strike and give the men who went to Worcester to call out the workers A hours in which to leave the town
 The musical life of the American Steel & Wire Company began with an informal glee club. The desire for music came from the workers them selves and was not in any way forced upon them. Any employee who wish ed might join, the only requirement being a desire to take part in some beginnings the musical life of the company has increased so the work CTS of the plant now possess a com pIete Sytsem of bands, orcheStras and choral organizations. The workers have their own auditorium and prac- tice rooms They have given several public concerts during the last season and plans are now under way for the formation of a symphony orchestra
 The music schools of Worcester are running to capacity with the children of the employees of the mills. Music shops in the town report increased sales.

His Idea Of A Good Time Is A Pipe
 And The Latest Work Or Epictetus!

Dexter is about 36 or S7 years old; has dark hair and dark eyes. A 'fapper" once described his face well when she said it was the sweetest mans face she had ever seen on the screen. And she was right. It is filled with firmness- and nobility of purpose, a face that could seek noth- ing but high ideals.
 Elliott would "fiivver'' as a will lain.
 The last picture he made before his illness was For Better, For Worse" His first picture since his illness was Something to Think About Still rather weak when he began work on this play, it was well that the part must be a man who was crippled and in poor health. Both these pictures were shown here.
 NeH-Known in Pictures.
 Dexter's screen career began in New Y ork four years ago when he played opposite Marguerite Clark in Helene of the North" Later he was lead with Alice Brady, Mary Pick ford, Marie Doro and others. Later still he had featured roles in We Can't Have Everything,''p t'The Whis- pering Chorus" The Squaw Man" and 'Old Wives for New.' His lat est part is the lead in -"The wtching Hour,'' which will sLe released next week.
 Dexter is one of the most popular residents in the Hollywood colony. He is married to Marie Doro, who is also active in the motion picture world.

His "Greatest Moment"

 Frank Hayes said that his great moment was when he faced his first stage audience.
 Then came Robert McKim's turn -McKim of the wicked william roles. whose graduation into all-star featur- ed parts has not dimmed the memory of other days.

She's harem-skarem, here and there. Though none could ever rout her, For at the GoIdwyn Studio They couldn't work without her. It's Mabel Normand, movie star, Who romps through pictured story, Then when the 1.fans'' behold her
 name
 X theatres yvreathed in glory!
 We apologize a. bit for the above verse, for though Mabel was a valued member of the Go1dwyn forces when it was written, she is now back with Mack Sennett,. and working hard, get ting ready to please the public with some of the delicate comedy that she used to put over when she was with the Sennett people before
 Mabel was born in Atlanta, Ga. leaving the popular Southern city to come to New ork, like many another one, to study art While doing this, she supported herself-and it was often hard sledding---by posing for such artists as Christy. Gibson and the Leyendeckers Mabel was a perfect thirty-six," and her figure was much in demand. Not so her face, however, for that was often too merry for serious studies.
 From posing to an artists model, then to g chorus girl was only a short step, and from there to the movies was still shorter, and she was sue cessful at once. Everybody saw her when she first appeared with Fatty Arbuckle. Many thought Mabel was funnier than Fatty Be that as 1t may, Mabefs greatest success is in comedy parts. She is a genius be- cause she can make herself look comic, in spite of the fact that she Is really and rarely beautiful.
 Her latest picture with Gofdwyn is Head Over Heels," which is due for release soon.
 Mabel is at home to her many friends at her little home in Los Angeles, where she lives with her lit tie Stutz car (adv-) No. Clarence. she is not married.
