The truth OF this came to US

critics TO be the GROWING effort

soon after there followed another
masterpiece. The Three >Musket-
GERS" the screen version OF which
was shown with marked success at
the Dixie some months ago.
Alexander Dumas was Il French
author and most Of his storie have
to do with the history OF Franco

threads Of romance. He was born

Pola Negri in THE DEVILS
Pawn" is the screen attraction at
the Blue. Ridge today, and while
Miss Negri is not given quite the
scope for emotional and dramatic
acting in this vehicle as some in
which we have seen her. We like
the rolo she portrays-that OF a
girl who has been reared by a
kindly Russian jew. who makes
great sacrifices in order to secure
an education.
AS a study OF the habits and
customs of the Jewish race, It IL
quite worth while, and from that
standpoint alone Is OF value.
1t is foreign production. and
as such Negri is quite at home In
every sense. for she is a Russian
German, by birth.
