Elaine Hammerstein, as Marjory iThorhcroft in '"The Point of View, y Selznick picture at the Coliseum Theater Tuesday and Wednesday, portrays the role of girl who is the only practical member of an impov- erished aristocratic family.

In the instance of the Thorncroft fam fly 1t is. little fshort of tragedy, until Marjory gets her relatives out of the bog only to fall into it her self She contracts lOveless mar riage and complications ensue, and the stage is set. for as pretty a piece of realistic and serious drama as has ever been witnessed on the screen.
 Alan Crosland directed the pro duction and among the players sup porting Miss Hammerstein are Rock Sclffe Fellowes, Arthur Houseman, Hugh Huntley Helen Lindroth, Cor nish Beck and Warren Cook.

at Leghorn. In Abriel's time the
population rose to eleven, and the
two buildings were erected which
form the nucleus Of the present
royal shooting box.
For centuries before 1850 the
island was forgotten by all save
Dumas and his readers, most of
whom probably knew not where it
was or whether it really existed.
But there was q Camaldulensian
monastery there in the thirteenth
century, of which the ruins still re-
main, an evidence of thespiracy then
prevalent in the Mediterranean.
Once, in 1241, Monte Cristo's white
conical rock appeared in world his
tory, giving it's name to the naval
battle fought in its waters between
the fleet of the Emperor Frederick
II and the Genoese ships carrying
more than 100 Cardinals and other
high dignitaries of the Church to
take part in the council convened
by Pope Gregory TX in Rome. The
imperial admiral won, and carried

ant of the island, which he acquired
in 1889, and on which he spent dur
ing his tenancy large sums. Before
his time Monte Cristo became, in
1875, an agricultural colony, de-
pendent upon the penal settlement
of the neighboring island of Pia-
nosa, the exile of Agrippa Postu-
mus, the grandson of Augustus,
who, as Tacitus narrates, was there
put to death on the accession of
Tiberius. Earlier still, between
1860 and 1875, Monte Cristo was the
abode of strange visionary, Da-
vide Lazzaretti, who lived in a cave
and fancied that, like St. Francis of
Assist, he had received the stigmata.
Shortly after the middle of the last
century an Englishman named Tay-
lor leased the island, laid out gar
dens and constructed ponds, till he,
too, disappeared from its history.
At that time, before the union of
Italy, Monte Cristo was the property
of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany,
which, in 1850, had sent four SOL
diers and a corporal thither from
Elba, whose successor was a certain

ances throughout Syria, plunging
the entire district into disorder in
their campaign against the French.
Getting out of HONS had seemed
impossible, but the girls were deter
mined to get out and go where their
services were more badly needed.
1t was the Arab friendliness for
workers of the Near East Relief that
helped them that time, just as Turk
ish friendship helped them later. I'm
der the protection of the native gov
ernor, who it later developed was
himself bandit, they iourneyed on
foot, on horseback and in springless
native carts across the rough coun-
try to Damascus, one hundred miles
away, without being troubled by the
rowing bands of robbers that made
the roads unsafe to ordinary trav-
elers.
Both Miss Mcintyre and her COM
panion had served in France during
the war and were hot unacquainted
with the boxcars built for the COM
fort of eight horses and the discom-
fort of forty men, that gave the
A. E. F. such an unfavorable i'm
preston of French railroads. But
the same boxcar would have fur
nished the luxury of a Pullman to
the girls in comparison to the dis
comfort they put up with on this
trip.
But there were orphans, thousands
of them that had to be looked after
by the relief organisation in the vari-
ous districts of the broad area that
it operates in. Neither Miss McIn-
tyre nor Miss Reed could turn down
the appeal of these children, so they
determined to undergo even more
serious hardships to help them.
When Miss Mcintyre and Miss
Reed finally arrived in Marash, they
found the work that lay before them
almost as strenuous as had been the
travel getting there. Approximately
$500 people, including those Of both
sexes and all ages, were receiving
aid from the Near East Relief unit
in the city, either from soup kitch-
ems, in the orphanages, in industrial
shops or in hospitals. In the indus
trial shops, operated to relieve un-
employment, $4,000 yards of cloth
were being woven in one month;
shoemaking was being conducted as
materials would allow, and relief
bakeries were baking eighteen tons
of bread every four weeks. In the
various clinics more than a thousand
adults were receiving treatment in a
like period.

Monte Cristo Is Not For Sale

~ r EWSPAPER reports to the
~ effect that President Wilson
had bought the island of
Monte Cristo in the Tuscan Archi-
pelago, as the home for his retire
ment, has caused the Epoca to pub
lish an interesting account of this
romantic island, six miles square,
which the elder Dumas assigned as
a title to the hero of his famous
novel, The Count of Monte Cristo.
President Wilson, says the Rome
correspondent of The London Morn
ing Post in summarizing the Epoca
story, even had he SO wished, could
not have purchased the island, which
is the property of the italian state.
and has been for many years leased
by the King of Italy.
In the quiet days before the war,
Victor Emmanuel III and Queen
Elena used to pass some of their
happiest hours at Monte Cristo, far
from the cares of state and not
near the Italian peninsula-for
Monte Cristo is by no means easily
accessible. Before the King, that
well knowa sportsman and Alpinist,
the Marchese Carlo Ginori, was ten

Philip Gibbs Meets the Paris Radicals

Y WENT, one night in Paris, to a
\ meeting of a society called
Clart6. 1t was founded by the
friends of that French author, Henri
Barbusse, whose book, LIE Feu, gives
the most realistic and dreadful pic
ture of the agonies and horrors of
modern warfare and contains the
iercest accusation of evil elements in
civilization which led up to the Euro
pean war, writes Philip Gibbs in the
February number of Harper's Maga-
zine. Clarte means clearness-clar-
ity-and the idea Of the society is to
bring together numbers of young
men in France and other countries
who went through the war and who
are able to think clearly on the prob
lens of life, the structure Of society
and the means by which liberty,
brotherhood and peace may prevail
over injustice, hatred and the spirit
of war. 1t was night in August
when I went to a back street in Paris
and to the rooms in which this meet
ing was being held. The rooms were
so crowded that / could hardly push
my way in and SO hot that enc wom-
an tainted and sweat poured down
the foreheads of French soldiers and
the whole company looked half
stifed- 1t was a queer company,
made up of many types and classes
OF men and women. Keeping the
door was a handsome young officer
in the sky-hlue uniform Of the Chas-
seurs, wearing many medals for valor
