LOVES BOOMERANG
WELL ACTED ON SCREEN
Child Actress and Miss A mn
Forrest in Leading Roles.

RIALT0-@Love's BOomerang,' John
s. Robertson production for Para.
mount with Miss Ann Forrest and Da.
vid Powell, adapted from the novel,
"Perpetua," by Dion Clayton CaIthrop.
Scenario by Josephine Lovett.
Here is introduced a winsome child
actress who puts severe task on the
star who Is to play the role when the
little girl Is grown Up. Apparently the
child prodigy wave now flushing the
screen in this country has struck Eng
land. 1t has elevated to the public gaze
in ''Bunty Fosse" a youngster whose
tiny perfection of features and wistful
eyes would stop a sprinter in his stride.
Her face, while not so vivacious as an
American infants, has an appeal all its
own, and the name of Pe7petud Mary
adopts an artist for whom she has been
posing seems to fit her like the curls
on her head.
OF course, after this promise one ex-
poets great things of the actress play
ing the grown up girl. and Miss Ann For
rest fulfills this-she even looks plausi-
BILE in short skirts and knee stockings,
the acid test for many Hollywood but
terflies. Miss Forrest Travelled over a
quarter of the globe to make this picture
in England and France. and it was well
worth carrying her lovely face that far.
She might almost be Alice Terry's sis
ter. The story of the girl who grew up
to love her adopted young father just
when she felt duty compelled her to be
angelic and save young roue by mar
rying him. has been done very carefully
by Mr.. Robertson, and with many of
the tender touches that still seemed left
In his system after Sentimental
Tommy" Scenes at a nunnery, in a
circus with which artist and young girl
wander. and on Thames houseboat are
very charming. and as the story winds
up with a touch of murder mystery. 1t
ought to be easy for many to find their
way to the box office.

thinness Of the original shows up more

stun for the Corn Belt.
They depict English aristocrats riding
to hounds behind monocies. Evidently
that's sure fire stun for the corn belt
But the same mobiles are shown COINS
to congratulate the family on having
a champion without eye pieces-evi-
IDENTIFY it's unsafe to wear them while
walking. So slavishly Is the stage COM
edy reproduced that one does not see
the final big scrap In which Williams
thrashes the villain, though ono would
like to know that the messy condi-
ton of the latter when he's carried in
was actually caused by Williams. or .
tree that fell on him.
Reid's suave nonchalance Is far from
Grant Mitchell's matter OF fact style,
but he easily wins the championship
belt from the other players for acting.
Lois Wilson is exceptionally charming
as the gentlewoman working as secre-
tary, and w. ]. Ferguson is competent
as the inevitable comic butler. but the
rest of the cast need to go and get

GRAND LARCENY FILM
OF LOVE AND DIVORCE
Picture Adapted From, Albert
Payson Terhune's Story.

CAPIT0L-"Grand Larceny" Gold
wyh production with Miss Claire Wind
sof, Elliott Dexter and Lowell Sher-
man. adapted from a story by Albert
Payson Terhune and directed by WAL
lace Worsley.
It is not good one learns from this
picture. for a married woman to go to
a bachelor friends home for tea, even
IL 1t is raining and she's really doing
It because she's lonesome for ner absent
husband. It's not merely unconven-
tional. but 1t shows quite plainly that
the Lothario Is very selfish, for he
makes the woman pay to the extent of
putting on rubbers and hoisting an UNI
brella. If the wife is subsequently di-
vorced and has to marry her lover, as
happens in this case. it easily can be
foreseen that she's going to have the
sort of unhappy time that drives wives
to chewing their handkerchiefs
The Calvinistically righteous husband
returns suddenly from Chicago and finds
his friend making ardent love to his
wife. and sternly makes the Lothario
pay-by marrying her afterward. The
treatment is largely psychological, for
one watches the development of the
seeds of mistrust which the wrathful
huSDand has implanted In the minds OF
erring friend and wife grow to cactus
thorns until present Jealous husband
No. 2 Is begging husband No. / to take
back his bad bargain. But the wife,
telling them she is neither mans bag
gage, goes out without settling which
she'll return to-and the door slams Just
as Nora in "a Dolls House" had
trained it to. Leaving a story thus up
in the air is rather novel on the screen
though not new to literature, and Is
bound to create discussion. which never
draws a protest from the box office.
Miss windsor. though at times cold
steers clear generally Of foolish spots !;
Elliott Dexter manages to forget as the
husband most of his recent philosoph-
ical sophistries as a screen bachelor and
Lowell Sherman, as usual. rolls his eye-
brows through the lover part as smooth
ly as Rolls-Royce.

EARL CARROLL, WITH OWN PLAY,
OPENS HIS OWN NEW THEATRE
'Bavu Is a Russian-Turkish Meodrama Employing

Show Authors Skill.

school were equally efficacious and
equally proved by the test of time. A
jealous woman hid behind the picture
OF an ikon and stared out through the
eyes of the image at the happenings In
the dingy garrett A man crept like a
cat about the rafters and listened to
the talk of the conspirators beneath
him. The officer who made out the
marriage certificate did not use the
name OF the Turk. who could not read,
but his own so that the woman was In
reality his wife. The necessary seal was
secured by pressing the paper against
the ring on the dead hand of the woman
who had been suffocated behind the
stone masonry.
OF such incidents is "Bavu" composed.
Unluckily the specta tDrs were as much
In the dark as the actors, who played
throughout the evening on an almost
inky stage. Why and wherefore were
never explained. Rhine was not neces-
sary. but reason might advantageously
have remained. Mr.. Carroll has been
uncommonly ingenious in his liberal
use of melodramatic incident. So with

Some Tricks Well Done.
Probably there will be no objection
from them to the wonderful door which
admits men and women into room on
one side, while others may enter stimuli
taneously on the other Because Mr..
Carroll has done this trick so well did
1t escape derision. The same is true of
other scenes in the play. Some, on the
other hand. aroused uneasy laughter.
Henry Herbert played well the Turk

manner of speech would have been per-
feet as the young commissioner of po-
lice. Maude Eburne, as the accomplice
of the Turk in his thefts, showed that
she could act effectively something else

c. w. Wallace was excellent as her
husband. Helen Freeman's suppressed
style Is not well suited to such frank
