Here is just a glimpse OF the story
enough 20 indicate the Adventur-
GUS spirit OF Annesley Grayle played
by Miss Macdonald: While waiting
the advent of en- elderly lady In
the Hotel Savoy. she is approached
by young man. ostensibly an Amer
lean, and who, in apparent trouble
begs Annesley TO save him by pre-
tending to be his wife. She is
astounded at the proposal but the
mans distress appears TO be so great
that she agrees to H. This leads
her through a series OF grave com
plications that make up splendid
entertainment material for the
screen.
Miss Macdonald can be depended
upon for the proper protrayal OF the
leading character. Her supporting
company is headed by Edmund
Lowe and Thomas Jefferson.
The story was adapted from the
novel 'sThe Second Latchkey," by c.
N. and A. NJ. Williamson.

Barricade" which opens today at
the Majestic Theatre. william Chris
ty Cabanne directed the piece
An intensely human theme. devel-
oped with consummate skin, makes
'sThe Barricade" one of the really
big subjects OF the year. Much OF
the action takes place In the slum
districts Of New York city. and Mr..
Cabanne a master Of realism, builds
up these scenes in a most skilful
fashion.
The story is built around the ex-
periences of an elderly Hebrew who
puts into practice his theories OF
love and human understanding. He
takes an Irish boy. the son OF his
beloved partner. into his own home
when the father dies and rears him
as he would his own son. The boy
becomes a great physician and by
his marriage to a society girl be-
comes forgetful and negligent OF his
benefactor. Pride and prejudice sets
up a barrier that the young man Is
afraid to scale until his sense OF JUS
tice and loves makes him.
The distinguishing characteristic
OF the story is its Intense humanness.
