Publieity-Fatima Priee

One of the seasons most important an- in the postwar readjust- ment of prices is the news that the price of FatIma cigarettes has returned to 20 cents for twenty.
 Smokers and dealers alike have natur- ally waited for Fatima, as the quality leader of the Turkish Blend" type of cigarette, to give the most authentic in- dicatiOn of the trend of cigarette prices, so that this announcement, just made by the Liggett & Myers Tobacco CO, bs per haps the most authoritative development since the price-cutting movement among the cheaper brands was started some months ago.
 At Fatima's price, 1t iS difficult s imagine the smoker who cannot afford td be discriminating. for after all it f doubtful 1. there Is another cigarette c1 the market so highly respected by sd many men. In fact, the claim is maoS and justified repeatedly in ever-increas- ing sales, that there is "no other cig2- rette of such quality at such price"
 It is true that even at its new priceS Fatima still seHs- for few cents more than the ordinary Turkish blend ciEs- rette, but the slightly higher price is more than compensated for by the extra amount of Turkish tobacco used in it's blending, which gives the cigarette it's famous ''balance''-that rich aroma bal- anced with body, that smoothness and delicacy of flavor that have set Fatima apart since the first from all other cig- arettes.

It is a screen version by Nero of Irwin s. Cobb's short story. H-nich appeared in the Saturday Evening Fosi. and it proved to be a delightfully."- hu77an photoplay of life in New York's Ghetto. Harry Beau mont directed the film.
 Miss Dana was never more mirth-pro< voking than she Is in her newest role. As z-rough and ready child of thirteen. brodNht up by a Jewish pavnbroier. she is highly amusing in the earlier scenes of the play. She is constantly involved in some lively incidents or othe. with the people of the East Side, all of whom are remarkably fine types.
 The story is that of a baby who ia abandoned and picked up by hobo. whd pavns her for five dollars. The pawn broker. who boasts that he lends money on anything" decides to rear the child himself. When, eighteen years later, he Is asked to surrender her to the man Eha pavned her. he contrives a means of avoiding the performances of his obliga- tion.
