the romantic adventure of a senti-
mental girl who seeks q Romeo by
the sad sea waves and who finds
three. First she encounters the DASH

JUNCTION; then she meets the mys-
terious lover, Charlie Conklin, with
the walrus mustache and the "do or
die" manner. The rivalry excited by
the beauty of the heroine in the
hearts of these two develops a series
of screaming funny episodes that ex-
tend from the shore line far out to

seemed to be tied. That must have
been Ruth and Vira. Then another
girl came from a cabin. She must
have had a knife or something, for
she cut the other two loose. Some
sailors came on deck. The scout
was putting out into the sound by
this time. One of the men grabbed

three-foot fash OF a motion picture,
there was a huge column of water
and puff of smoke. black wreckage
of the boat. 1t seemed that, by a
split second before, the two had
struggled overheard or leaped. Then
came the deep report, echoing md
reverberating among theA Nonowan-
tue hills.
'Gienn!" exclaimed Garrick. as
Mckay released the brakes and
rolled down like a roller coaster the
rest of the way.
They were in time to see that the
boathouse was unframed. A little
speed boat which they had not no

up the girl and started off f~uriously
toward the mouth of the harbor. A
black object. Glenn. struggled feebly
in the water. BY this time Dick had
his coat off. He ripped his shirt as
he ran down the docks and plunged
off. almost uneneumbered by that
time.
When Garrick pulled them both
out and had Glenn sufficiently re-
yived to find that there were no
broken bones, he had begun to get
the story.
Glenn, it seemed, had been on the
road side of the boathouse from
which he had expected attack, II at
all, when he had heard a noise under
the workshop. The workshop was
on the second floor. Under 1t had
been a boat shed. 1t had been con-
verted into a hangar by Dick with a
skid way down into the water. In 1t
he had a hydroaeroplane on which
he was working. installing n OF
his new radio ideas.
II saw Rae" he painted for breath.
'tShe had come up 10 the b~oathouse,
alone, in a rowboat with a little
engine over the stern. She was stick
ing the nose OF the boat under the
boathouse in the channel between

smoking in the bow. The engine
was going slowly, keeping the nose

seemed TO know all about it. And,
Dick, he got a second message from
Ruth. Here it is. l wrote it down
just as Mckay says he got it,"
On a piece of wrapping paper Mia
had written. "On the Bacchante,

That's where it broke off," half
a~pologized Mckay.
Dick paced up and down the work
shop floor. Finally he lifted a trap
door and climbed down TO the for
mer boathouse below.
When Garrick climbed after him a
few minutes later. he found Dick
smeared and greasy, coat off, COW
cred with perspiration, working fe-
verishly.
Garrick looked about keenly. The
former boathouse had been trans
ferred into a real hangar. Dick
looked up from his work.

called to Garrick, waving toward the

One of the most unusual pictures
ever produced will start tomorrow
at the Opera House. 1t is THE
Lotus Eater" an Associated First

by Marshall Neilan.
1t is unusual for a large variety of
reasons, but chiefly because of the
talent which has been employed in
its production. The name of Barry

is sufficient evidence that it is extra
ordinary, but there are other big
names accredited to it. Albert Pay

Of novelists wrote the story and
George Ado, the humorist, wrote the
Subtitlcs.
The supporting cast is especially
noteworthy, for it includes Wesley

City, Palm Beach and q tropical
island furnish the settings for this
story OF love, adventure, hatred and
intrigue.
