AT THE MAJESTIC

More common sense than sensa-
tionalism Is exercised by Lois Weber,
the woman producer. in the presen-
tation OF her film success What Do
Men Want?" now current at the
Majestic Theatre. She has not paid
so much attention to the dramatic
sequence as to the clear story and
the truth OF the story. She has
worked up her plot from life and
has set forth a strong example that
cannot be overlooked.
What DO Men Want?' takes an
average young couple for its hero
and heroine" Around their seem
lngly commonplace lives Is woven a
plot that steadily and surely mounts
60 a high dramatic point that cannot
be too highly praised.
The woman's understanding and
intuition is evident throughout the
story and the development is as
original as the feminine mind. 1t IS
relishing to watch the direction OF
the film OF which one Is conscious
only In the smoothness of the story
Claire Windsor Is a delicate beauty
and of the type just suited for th'
part OF the wife in the story. Sh'
is a society girl from Seattle whom
Miss Weber has made famous almos
overnight.
Frank Glendon is more than salts
factory in the role OF the husband
He is a hard worker and rea
brainy business man but he is lack
ing in common sense where his bes
personal interests are concerned.
The picture is remarkably well Sc
and the photography crystal-clear.

AT THE QUEEN

Not only from the thousands OF
the citizens OF wilmington who have
read the book. does the picture "The
Sheik" now at the Queen Theatre
draw It's patronage. There are
thousands more who taking the word
OF friends who possess familiarity
with the story and delighted with the
prospect OF Agnes Ayres and Ru-
dolph Valentines appearance In the
film. have fiocked to the theatre to
see this amazing romance.
When Edith NJ. Hull wrote the
story. she probably little dreamed
OF the fame OF popularity that would
sweep the whole English-speakinE
world. The book was a sensation
and the film Is even more than this.
Even the writer's pen was ne'er able
TO picture with such vivid realism
and with such color, the desert
scenes as the camera has done. The
whole expanse of the desert was
open to the eye OF the camera.
The desert scenes were shot IN
California but for all the sands and
wastes. It might be the Pharoah's
own Sahara.
Rudolph Valentino was never more
handsome that in the marvellous
trappings OF the Sheik. He is dark
and vivid and is decidedly outstand-
ing in his role. His love making with
Agnes Ayres is a Splendid bit Of act
ing.
Miss Ayres is fair and suited to
play as Diana Mayo the independent
English girl who dehed the power
OF the sheilS and bowed down to his
superiority.
The rest Of the company is OF the
same high standard

of Reading Railway passenger trains
at Bryn Athyn apparently stands at

positively Identified and IA others,
known to have been on one or the
other trains, are still missing and
are believed TO have been killed.
Nine bodies and several fragments
Of bodies remaining at a morgue in
Jenkintown were so terribly mutt
lated that identification virtually is
impossible. Several OF the injured
were still in a critical condition to-
day.
Railroad officials and others said
the exact toll Of the wreck probably
never would be established. for no
one could tell how many bodies were
represented In pile OF ashes and
bits of bone gathered up by the
wrecking crews. II also was doubt

pany, representatives of the Inter
state Commerce Commission and the
State Public Service Commission,

the investigation would be continued
tomorrow at the scene OF the acci-

sponsibllity for the collision on the
crew OF the northbound train
Gross violation" OF definite running
orders and an ignored block signal
was the cause, he said. The state
ment said both trains were given
orders to meet at Bryn Athyn, and
that the northbound train ignored

waiting for the southbound train

for this gross violation OF the order

ment, except that It was an unex-
planned failure OF the human agency.

star as the heroine, will be presented

After her memorable tour in Pan
thea" which served TO introduce her
to American playgoers, Petrova said
she would never again appear in
conventional drama The White
Peacock" is conventional in one re-
spect only that Il has a strain OF
ideal romance. Otherwise It Is in
tensely modern and feministic. The
heroine is a beautiful and accom-
plished women who has rebelled
against her husbands immortality.
She leaves him to make her own
way as an artist Among the vic
Tins of her husbands duplicity Is
e handsome caballero with price
on his head. He has escaped from
prison after being convicted Of MUIR
der. but he protests his innocence,
becomes a model in the heroines
studio and soon falls in love with
her. He loves all the more deeply
for the reason that he respects the
reason that drew her away from her
vicious husband. The situation
leads to an exciting climax. which
results in the flight OF the con-
tempuble husband, the death Of his
brutal henchman and the blossom
ing OF the romance begun in the
studio. But even this romance Is
worked out unconventionally. with
none Of the marshmallow sentiment
usually found In romantic drama.

esq labor into vast organiza-

law which does not recognize labor
unions. It was also decided to begin
a strike Of 100000 workers in Toxic
