MOORE'S RIALTO
"Chdrge II"

How a fascinating, aristocratic
society leader abandoned her social
position and took to dishwashing in
a common restaurant is told in the
latest Clara Kimball Young photo
play, Charge IT, which opens a
weeks engagement at tMoore's Rialto
Theater today .F...
or course this strange behavior will
seem a mystery to- many, but when
the powerful circumstances that con-
fronted this wealthy social queen are
understood, few will blame Julia
Lawrence for deserving the brilliance
and glory of her life for the sordid
routine of a restaurant employe. When
the story is all over those who see
II will admire rather than consure
the courage of the millionaire's wife
in leaving luxury and earning her
own living by the toll other hands.
Charge II" Is a moral for those who
believe money brings Everything.
