tsEair Lady" at Ditmas

The element of mystery in the
new Rex Beach picture Fair Lady
was put to a sever and novel test
before il was finally turned over 10
United Artists Corporation for re-
lease and the wide difference OF
opinion of experts on the solution OF
the mystery was taken as POSITIVE
proof that the public Will not o.
able positively to anticipate the end
ing of this screen drama until the
very last Genes "Fair Lady" VIII
be seen today at the Ditmas theatre.
When the production was COM
pleted it was shown privately to an
audience composed of officials from
the United Artists, the chauffeurs
employed by the officials, and studio
mechanics and clerks. None OF
those invited to the private showing
were acquainted with the story OF
Fair Lady, This was made a
point in issuing invitations because
Whitman Bennett, the producer
and Rex Beach, the author, as well
as Dorothy Farnum, who prepared
the script, were anxious to get an
impartial opinion of the mystifyins
elements of the picture. When six
reels of the picture had been u
off the lights were turned on IN
the spectators were asked (which of
the characters in the story was the
villain" A tally of the various con-
lectures showed that every mem
Der of the cast was suspected OF be-
ing the guilty party. Then>the sew
enth reel was shown and the audi
ence was let into the secret.
This speaks well for the enter
tainment value of the picture. 1t Is
very unusual when a production a
GO so neal to its completion without
disclosing some hint of its ultimate
ending.

His Back Against the Wall"
which was shown at the Crescent
theatre last night, is a delightful
variation of the outworn western
strong-man melodrama. Instead OF
a hero who can split a table with a
punch, we find a little tailor's helper,
driven from his own set in the East
acclaimed a hero by his new western
companions. inadvertently. he has
witnessed the killing of two desper-
ADDE'S in the desert. Too terrified to
move, he is discovered by the sher-
if and lauded to the community for
his bravery.
In this situation, with his back
against the wall, the little hero a
to live UP to his reputation. TO
complicate matters, he falls in love
with the most sought-after girl in
the county and knows hat his love
is returned. Yet he is a man OF
conscience, and wants to tell the girl
of his true position. She, like every
body else, will not believe him.
Eventually, he is forced to per-
form one heroic act, and his for
ever makes it impossible to deny his
heroic qualities.
Utilize" the Mary Miles Minter
picture which also is at the Cres-
cent theatre today, is a story OF hu-
MOI and pathos which revolves
around the life of a girl in a strict
Mennonite community. The photo

Washington, Aug 2S.-Legislation
empowering President Harding to
take over and operate anthracite
coal mines and certain coal carry
ing roads has been sidetracked tenn
porarily and probably will not be
pressed in congress this week, it
was stated officially here today.
The growing optimism in official
circles that a settlement Of the hard
coal strike is near and increasing
opposition in congress to seizure
legislation at the present time
caused the change in the admins
tration's plan as announced by Sen
ator Cummins last week.
In the immediate future the ad-
ministration has decided to concen-
trate its efforts toward the prompt
movement of all settlement and the
control of prices.
1t was indicated that a new pro,
gram for the greater expedition OF
coal shipments was being framed.
Coal may be given priority ahead
