Others mey have their opinions.
but there can be little doubt after
viewing The Storm" that Miss
valli Is probably the most beaun-
full woman Of her type playing in
pictures. Certain it is that she
achieves some rare emotional sit
uations in masterful way and
without the presence Of another
woman in the cast injects the nee
essary feminine atmosphere quite
satisfactorily. House Peters, the
hulking man of the woods who
proves the better Of Matt Moore
as the New Yorker in the race for
Virginia's affections, has a way
about him in this picture that will
impress you at once. He also plays
through some difficult situations, in
somewhat iron-man role, with
honor.

east IS WEST
By A. II. Williams.

East Is West will probably be
listed as one of the best films OF
the year, because its star, Con-
stance Talmadge, gives the princi-
pie role brilliant Interpretation.
As Ming Toy a Chinese girl, plung-
ed into the complexities and COM
plications of life as it is lived in
America, she charms with the re-
freshingly unsophisticated way in
which she regards American ways,
seen through eyes tutored to the
suavity of the Oriental. 1t is, in
deed, an all-staf cast which sup
ports Miss Talmadge. Warner

An all-star cast, featuring no
one, but with each member playing
with a steady brilliance which
made many individual stars, is the
feature of the film, I'm the Name Of
the Law" which opened at the Fort
Armstrong yesterday. Like several
pictures that have been on the pro-
gram lately, it's mostly sob story.
A good mystery plot, including a
murder and bank robbery, makes
the story absorbingly interesting.
The story is that Of the family Of

RAT CATCHER NEW
 JOB IN MONTREAL
Appointment Necessary to Keep
 Records From Rodents

Montreal, April 1S.-To save val uable legal records from destruction, an official rat catcher has been ap According to judges and court off cials there is an excellent opening for a pied piper here.
 Official stenographers had their notes eaten by rats during the night. A judge lost his gown and silk hat from the closet in his chambers. Civil suits involving valuable property were delayed through the disappearance of records. Finally when exhibit A" in a murder trial was eaten, and the prisoner had to be liberated from lack of evidence the authorities de- cided it was time to take action.
 Cats Tire Eating.
 Cats were introduced at first to stem the growing tide of rodents but the most industrious soon wearied of carnage. Terriers followed with sim liar results. Traps of all types were set at night in the corridors of jus tice and all exacted heavy toll, but the rats grew and multiplied. Finally the rat catcher was named and in- stalled.
 By means of poison the formula of which is kept secret-the rats might eat it otherwise-the rodent hosts have been gradually diminished, the authorities say The consumption of notebooks, judgments, evidence, OK hbits and silk hats has fallen off ap- preciaby, according to latest reports.
