'SILAS MARINER LIVES AGAIN
AS AlDlNE FILM FEATURE
Famous Classic Given Careful, But
Stolld, Screen Treatment

Aldine-It's rather a shame that the
schools and colleges are closed, since
even the most conservative teacher
would not have to hesitate to advise
the students to see the perturbation Of
George Eliot's "Silas Mariner"
Here is something quite different
from the butchered version Of Tenny-
sons LADY Godiva," seen here last
week. The filmed "silas Marner' ia
a careful and accurate transcription of
the novel and, It must be confessed,
becomes painfully monotonous in its
seven reel meandering course. Per-
haps the very fact of the strict adher-
ence to the story helped deaden the
action Of the picture.
One Of the films greatest assets are
its scenes. The picturesque English
village Of a quite different generation
was splendidly caught. One Of the
street views seemed to be identical

but the similarity cannot be counted
a fault.
There was a big mistake in casting
Crawford Kent in the name role.
NIL realize the authors conception of
Silas. And, although thirty years is
supposed to elapse during the course of
the pictures action. Silas remains un-
changed; not single alteration did
Kent apparently make in his makeup.
George Fawcett was fine but wasted
in the small role Of DR.. Kimble. Anders
Randolph was the outstanding figure
Of the cast as Squire Cass, and Jean
Girardin was charming as Eppie,

IRENE FRANKLIN TOPS
GOOD BILL AT KEITH'S
Clever Comedy Offerings and
Music ApIenty Well
Received

Keith's-Irene Franklin-she Of the
Greenwich Village Follies-heads the
bill this week with a soodly font of
song and monologue which gives forth
pleasant, bubbling stream Of enter
tainment. Irene goes well, very we'll
indeed.
Two nut numbers compete for second
honors. The musical repartee Of De-
marest and Coliette, billed az tThe
Versatile Couple" has a tough tusslc
with the antics Of Jack Donahue, the
f,Ollies dancer. who looks like the Mad
Halter in "Alice in Wonderland" and
acts much the same way. And speak =
ing of comedy, Charles Irwin Is very
much among those present.
The Robbins Family, ranging from
one to forty-six years Of age, have a
lively and amazingly timber act Of song
and tumbling, and the kids are as
cute as they come. But one cannot
help wondering what their voices will
be like ten years from now.
Josephine and Henning have a girl
and boy offering of more than passable
merit, and the Worden Brothers do
some really good foot juggling. Ruby
Royce works hard in her dance skit,
but gets kidded, alas, by the rest of the
bill. The Melnotte Duo, in "A Nigh.
Out" offer a novel wire balancing act.
The bill Is concluded with Pathe News,
Aesop's Fables and Topics Of the Day.

that Capt. Nutting and he would have
built in an American yard two ider-
tical boats. about fffty-four feet over
all.
The American boat. he said, will be
rigged as a schooner and the English
