GAGE OF HEARTS," STRONG
GOUVERNEUR MORRIS DRAMA

Gouverneur Morris, the Goldwyn-
eminent author, who wrote 1.-THE
Penalty" and "a Tale of Two World
has succeeded in adding another
powerful story to his Goldwyn photo
plays with the production of ACE of
Hearts," which will be shown at the
Kenworthy theatre for two days be-
ginning Thursday
The author has expressed himself
as fortunate in having such splendid
players as Lon CLANCY, Leatrice Joy
and John Bowers in the leading roles
Mr.. CLANCY will be remembered for
his uncanny impersonation of the
legless criminal in Mr. Morris story,
"The Penalty" In "Ace of Hearts"
his role is that of dreamer whose
passion for social reform is SO great
that he will not even stop at murder
to reform the world.
The story itself tells of the mis-
guided attempts of a group Of reform
ers to rid the world of men who have
preyed upon the weak and helpless.
Their method is to exterminate those
who, in their eyes, have been social
criminals, no matter how rich and
powerful the criminals may be. The
only feminine member of the group
is played by Beatrice Joy; and she is
quite as fanatical as the men, until
she falls in love with one of them
From this point, the story is one of
self-sacrifice, through which many of
the members discover their their aims
may be good but their methods futile.
Hardee Kirkland, Edwin N. Wallace
and Roy Wardlaw complete a careful
ly selected cast. Wallace Worsley di
rected "Ace of Hearts," and achieved
several unusual effects in staging and

ENOUGH MOTORING FOR HIM.
Howard A. Baker of Salisbury volun-
tarily Returns License.

Howard A. Bakers experience with
automobiles might be said to have
made him ssdder and a wiser man.
Mr.. Baker, who lives in Salisbury,
wrote TO the office Of the secretary Of
state this morning that he was send
ing back his license AS he had had all
the experience he needed with ears.
The causes Of this belief on Mir Bak
er's part are two accidents which be
fell him near Leicester Junction on
the night Of Sept. Is. Az nine O'clock
according TO his report, he ran into
telegraph pole near Creek bridge,
breaking off the pole and damaging the
truck which he was driving, owned by
NJ. A. Newton. TO the extent of $40.
All was well and Mr.. Baker started
out once more, but at one o'clock he
drove into a ditch a short distance
from the scene of the first accident. He
attributes the second calamity TO
nervousness caused by the first. At
all events, Mr.. Baker and cars will
probably be total strangers in the flu
ture.
