Anti-Vice Work
 Believed Failure

Shanghai, Aug. 24.-Shanghars ex-
 pertinent. begun some two years ago,
 to eliminate commercia1ized vice from
 the International Settlement, has been Poccasioning widespread discussion in
 Shanghai and elsewhere by reason of
 recent official reports that seem to
 indicate the belief that the plan adop-
 tet will not work.
 The scheme was proposed by vice
 commission. When it was put into operation the 800-odd ablishments of the International Settlement were licensed and the purpose has been to cancel one-fifth of the total number of licenses each year for a period of five years-with the end that places of the kind would be wholly elimin-
 ated at the end of the five year peri cd. After the scheme has been in op- eration two years it's wisdom seem ingly is questioned in the course of a report lately issued by the Municipal Council. This report says the evil and attendant evils have in no way de- creased but have merely spread over a much wider area with consequent inpossibi1ity of any effective police control" This elicited a swift response from local moral welfare forces. The council was asked If its statement meant that the places closed open again in new quarters in the settle ment and operate unchecked and if the police feel themselves unable to cope with the situation.
 Replying to these questions the Mu- nicipal Council said that places off1-
 cia1ly closed, remain closed, but that
 nevertheless former occupants having
 no other means Of making a living continue their former lives in pri- | vate houses where they are in no sense subject to police control.

Buck covets' her and one day, in a quarrel, stays her fath CT. Tharon swears vengeance and developing into d ''two-gun" woman. she finally gets Buck and while she stays him, she is in no sense a mur- deress. In the development of this dramatic story, a love interest in which Tharon and Billy, a cowpunch- CT, are the central characters, is finely rought into play.
 The picture is filled with thrills and they are of that gripping quality which holds the spectator in sus pense from start to finish. Frank Campeau, one of the best known heavies of the screen, has the role of Buck and he vests it with great force and realism. Jack Mower has the role of Billy, and as leading man, he does excellent work. The cast in cludes Will R. Wa11ing, Clarence Bur ton, George Field, Irene Hunt and Fred Huntly. In addition, there is Mrs. Dark Cloud, an Indian charac- ter actress well known to screen fans. Paul Powell directed. The picture is based on Vingie E.

"Tangerine," which comes to the Park theatre next Wednesday, begins without the noisy opening choruses of the usual musical comedy. In fact it starts in what might be, ex- cept for the hilarious comedy situa- tions presented, in the drab atmos- phere of a jail.
 Three young husbands Geo. Fising. Kail Nelson, Dave Kane) are in Lud- low street jail, the famous aIimony abode of New York, for failing to pay the a1imony awarded their respective wives (Rebekah Weaver, Jean Mu- rode and Florence F,o1ds.)
 A friend, (Sam Cricherson) is sud denly incarcerated with them be- cause since prohibition the alcoholic wards are too overcrowded.
 This friend agrees to pay their dues In the Ahmony club, take them to the Island of Tangerine where the wom- en do all the work, induce their wives to go there on a yachting trip, and after the yacht has sailed away, bring about reconci1iations, something he must do to convince his sweetheart (Miss Eva Webber that marriage may be a success after all.
 One can easily imagine the many tudNcrous situations arising out of this situation, which added to the numerous song hits have made Tran gerine'' one of the most successful productions of recent years.

PLEASURE BEACH.

Fully ten thousand youngsters and grown up visited Pleasure Beach yes terday afternoon. What was on? We'll it was Children's Day and the youngsters realizing that there are only few more of them left thought it was a case of make hay while the sun shines. All the attractions were put at their disposal at half rate.
 The dance hall also had it's share of attractions in the evening. An Old Fashioned Prize Waltz contest proved that there are some dancers from the old school of dancing who still favor the old fashioned waltz to the new jazz. The Caprarula Sisters were an- other attraction that pleased. These little Broadway dancers imbibed all that is clever with gracefulness, dain- tiness and love1ineSs.
 Tomorrow there is to be another mammoth display of fireworks. Hun dreds of dollars worth of huge set pieces and aerial bombs will be shown in the display which is free.
 All the attractions are open in full swing today, skating, bathing, danc- ing and riding.

Gladys Walton truly is a fine ex- ample of what a girl in pictures can do in two short years. 'The Trouper' Universal offering at the Empire theatre, is a specimen of her work. remarkably improved since a year or so ago.
 Then she was starring in typical comedy dramas; that is, there was lit te emotional material in them. Today "Second Hand Rose' and '"The Troup- CT" prove her depth and capability beyond question.
 "The Trouper'' is a role worthy of the mettle of any younger actress. It Is full of pathos, sadness that bumps into burlesque situations with a vivid suddenness.
