THE NEW MOVIES
By Robert E. Sherwood

of the pains that have been expended on
its production.
Last year Mr.. Ray made nine pic
lures, which proved little except that
il is physically impossible TO produce
nine pictures in one year and keep the
average up 20 any accepted standard
Of merit This year, Mr.. Ray has re-
luced his quota to two. of which "A
TailorAAIade Man" is number one. ami
the results are eloquent.
Mr. Ray and his director. Joseph De
Grasse, have not followed their text as
closely as William De Mile did in
Clarence" but such departures as they
have made from the original play are
entirely excusable. For instance, they
have inserted chase at the end, which
in point of action is worthy of Harold
Lloyd comedy or a Pear! White serial.
Mr. Ray Is pursued all over the water
front by a gang of burly Bolsheviki and
he climbs over obstacles with all the
ease of the great Mr.. Fairbanks himself.
Nh Ray has demonstrated his athletic
prowess before, but never so conclusively
as this.
Aside from his acrobatic abilities. Mr..
Ray is one OF the few genuine pantomim-
lists of the movies. His nervous hands,
his twitching lips and his perpetually
furrowed brow are remarkably express
sive. He is a master in the art of look
ing worried. He can impress the audi
ence with the fact that he has great
deal on his mind and can always elicit
their sympathy in his efforts to solve
the terrific problems which invariably
confront him.
The overture at the Strand Is from
"Pagliaccir with stalwart vocal inter-
polatioas by Louis Roza. There is also
.s,,t1 IAt StEtnhidnC staged
by none other than Michel Fokine HIM
self Truly the local picture palaces
are taking up art in what is technically
known as a serious way.
"The Prisoner of Zenda." with its
flashing rapiers and its broken hearts
is now at the Capitol, having moved
there after its moderately successful
career at the Astor. Those who missed
this romantic Rex Ingram production
during its first Broadway run will do
well to visit the Capitol this week.
Another moving picture which has
moved is ''The Face in the Fog" that
turbulent melodrama which packed EN-
in at the Rivoli last week. 1t is now at
the Rialto where Lionel Barrymore may
be seen knocking Louis Wolheim for
the conventional loop.
when Knighthood Was in Flower
continues to provide exceptional enter
tainment at the Criterion. and the cleo
trio signs in front of the theater still
make the street lights on Broadway
seem superfluous.
Other photoplays that remain for
those who wish to see them are "Trifing
Women" at the Astor, Monte Cristo
at the Forty-fourth Street Theater and
"A Little Child Shall Lead Them at
the Lyric.

"CLARENCE" A QUIET COMEDY.

"CLARENCE" A QUIET COMEDY. =.
Booth Tarkington's comedy Clarence
relied entirely on it's expert character
izations and its equally expert dialogue
There was no semblance of plot. For
this reason clarence" is not particular
ly well adapted TO treatment in film
form. The people may be there, de-
fined as sharply as they were IN the
original play. but one misses the words.
William De Mile. however. has done
all that is humanity possible with "Clar-
ence" and his picture, which is on view
at the Rivoli this week. is an eNcep-
~tionally deft production This Mr.. De
Mile possesses many of the qualities
which his more successful brother Cecil
b., lacks. Among them is a respect for
the story that he is called on TO inter-
pret on the screen He has introduced
no Babylonian episodes in Clarence
nor has he equipped his beds with patent
leather sheets. Even his telephones wear
no DISCUSSES.
He also has shown wisdom in the Sc
lection of his cast We were among those
who expressed grave doubts when it was
announced that Wallace Reid was TO
play Clarence, but our pessimistic at
ttude has turned out to be unJusflhed.
Mr. Reid Is excellent. He displays un-
expected repression and loses none or the
quiet humor that Tarkington's quaint
character affords. The rest of the cast
is considerably more than adequate, IN
Guiding as 1t does such thoroughly COM
petent performers as May McAvoy, kath-
leen Williams, Edward Martindel and
Agnes Ayres. Miss McAvoy is particu-
larly good as Cora, the temperamental
dauohtar of the Wheeler family.
In view of its many excellent quail
ties, it is rather unpleasant to record
that "Clarence" is not especially eXcit-
Ing. But this is not MIR De Miles fault.
nor Mr.. Tarkington's. 1t IS due to the
fact that a comedy of this nature can
not possibly be as good on che screen
as it was on the stage. no matter how
expertly it may have been directed and
played
on the same bill at the Rivoli are
two short pictures, one little episode
from the life of Beethoven and he other
a record of an expedition into darkest
Africa The latter is called Man VS..
Beast" and was produced by Louis Shu-
man. who lost his life Just as mis- party
was returning to civilization after two
years In the wilderness. Mr.. Shuman
obtained some startling pictures of wild
animals at close range, probably the
best of the kind ever taken. 1t was
unfortunate that he could not have lived
TO complete his work, for the story OF
his adventures, as it was set forth on the
Rivoli screen, suffers much from care
less editing.

Letters from the People
ANOTHER LETTER FROM
Il. A. EMMITT ON ROADS

Editor Herald-The first requi
site for good roads Is the proper
location curves and grades by com
petent engineers. The state high.
way commission expends about 6is
cents OF every dollar for engineer
ing purposes. which is unayoidabl,
and profitable In the end. Eff
Client surveys are the basic founda'
tions for any permanent finished
highway. and klamath county is in.
deed fortunate in securing the serv-
ices OF the state engineers whose
record throughout the whole state
is unsurpassed by any on the Pa
cific coast. considering the natural
barriers OF resistance-they have
made II possible TO move from one
end OF the state TO the other In
high gear--a feat heretofore
thought impossible.

Client surveys OF its s.3oo miles OF
road has wasted sums impossible
to estimate, but appalling In the az

three-fourths OF ione miae q. the
old road Is brought into use or fol-
lowed. the remainder OF which be-
ing total loss OF all work per-
formed and money expended for
the preceding 40 or so years on
the old route. No obections can be
raised to the new route. as 1t Is

grade exceeds 8 per cent, except a
short space on Green Spring noun

be overcome.
The Algoma grade Is 10 be re-

engineers because OF the vast
amount having been expended II

inch TO the length or nickel TO
the price.
a car can now ascend the hill In
eight minutes in the intermediate

Prominent writer's on transporta-
