famous Latin Quarter of New York

The Follies is without doubt the
most artistic and colorful revue that
will be seen here. None of its pre-
decessors a approach it in novelty

Great Picture at Ditmas

When a great motion picture star
appears in a dual role, the event is
hailed as a sensation in fildom. The
sensation of multiple roles is doubled
in Clara Kimball Young's greatest
photodrama Charge It," now play
ing at the Ditmas Theatre.
In this realistic picture from the
gifted pen Of saba Cowan, remem-
bered for her successful authorship
of Hush and straight From Paris
Miss Young assumes four different
roles. The remarkable point. how
ever. is not in the number of roles
this versatile actress %portrays. but
in the effectiveness with which she
enacts each part.
AS the brilliant. glorious social
leader, surrounded by all the extrav-
agance of wealth, Miss Young's car
riage is convincing. AS the fippant
lover of another man. her gaiety and
reckless demeanor are equally real
istic. Again as the humble restaur-

.iNJotber q, Mine, at Crescent

An actor with the shrewdness of a
stockbroker-the most "capitalistlc
figure" on the screen-that is a tick
er impression of Joseph Kilgour. who
plays a leading role in Thomas II.
Ince's drama, Mother y Nine
at the Crescent Theatre.
Some years ago Kilgore owned a
seal on the Chicago Stock Exchange,
and when he appears on the silver
sheet as a financial king. which he
does more often than not. he is play
ing at what was once a serious ousl-
ness with him. just as when he hrst
appeared in amateur theatricals IN
famous Chicago clubs he was playing
at what has since become his most
cherished work and study.
During the past two or three years
he has appeared in numerous sue
cessful screen productions, never
starred because his type OF heaVy
roles seldom permitted him to be the
hero of a story. but practically al
ways a featured player who could be
depended upon to give a splendid
characterization.
In Mother O. Mine" Kilgore is
cast to splendid advantage as Will
liam Thatcher. a powerful but un-
scrupulous wizard of finance. whose
shady transactions p~recipitate the ca
tastrophe which results in the dram
attic climax of the story.
While Joseph Kilgore Is first ana
last an actor, and says that he IN
tends to devote the remainder of his
life to the silent stage, it is not the
dramatic page of the morning paper
that first commands his attention.
No indeed. The habit acquired years
still remains, and Joseph kilgore
devotes the first minutes of his morn
ing reading to a careful and critical
of the daily market reports.
