thing happens to wake them up.
That's what occurs in "An Amateur
Devil" Bryant Washburn's new Para
mount comedy which will be dis
played at the Liberty tonight. Car
yer Endicott, a rather too precise
young man, tires his fianeee with his
''popless" love-making. In despera-
tion she announces her engagement
to his father, gay widower.
Carver decides that the only way
to end the match is to disgrace the
family so the girl won't dare marry
into it. He tried various sorts OF
"disgraceful work" even to accepting
a job as buss boy in a restaurant,
only ito find that instead of being
thought less Of, the newspapers made
great capital of his example to the

al right after "a series of typically
