GRAND LARCENY"
BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED

"Grand Larceny" Goldwyn pic
ture, is, the new offering coming to
the opera house Tuesday Of next
week. 1t is a story Of TWO men and
a woman, Sy Albert Payson Terhune,
in which one of the men commits
what the other calls an act Of Grand
Larceny in stealing the affections CT
the others wife. A novel twist to
this type of society story is introduc-
ed by the attitude of the woman who
is the innocent victim of what is ap-
parenly a chain of evil circum-
stances. She does not acquicsce in
theory that degcades her to the levei
of things that may be stolen; and IN
the end, forces upon both men rec
ognition of the fact that she belongs
to herself.
The story, which was written by
Albert Payson Terhune, is beautiful
ly presented by an excellent cast, IN
cluding Claire Windsor, one OF the
latest ''fnds," Elliott Dexter, Rich
ard Tucker, Tom Gallery, Roy Atwell
and John Cossar.
