Tomorrow at Crescent

What is G real woman?"
What is the essence of femininity,
shorn of ell the conventions and
subterfuges that make the modern
woman an altogether unknown
quantity?
Those are the questions William
]. Locke has tried to answer in his
'"The Morals of Marcus Ordeyne,"
the film version of which opens at
the Crescent theatre for two days,
beginning tomorrow under the title
Morals"
"Carlotta," played by May Nc
Avoy, is an English girl brought up
in a Turkish harem. Reared TO be
absolutely frank. to look forward to
marriage and to discuss her matrl-
monial prospects without reserVa-
tions, she casts a bomeshell into
polite English society when circum-
stances make her the ward OF stald
Sir Marcus Ordeyne.
She is different from n wonan
Sir Marcus has ever met. Her SIM
pie frankness embrasses MN ire
mendously-but when she leaves
him for a few days ne finds that the
sheer appeal of her spoiled inno-
cence, her freedom from civilized
feminine c~amoufage. have COM
pletely won his sedate, bachelor
heart.
But the author doe not allow
this love to be consummated easily
There is a series of tremendously
dramatic situations intervening
which provide much of the produc-
tion's entertainment.
Morals was adapted by una
Crawford Ivers from the Wllllam
j.. Locke novel.

was a corporation. This morning,
however, a certificate from the sec
rotary of state was shown in court
and service was made on John

Silas Grimstead, attorney for the
Metuchen concern. stated that Alex
O'Connor was the agent of the COM

moved for dismissal on the ground
but the court denied the motion and
rendered judgment for the plaintiff.

pilgrims of the Night" at Ditmas

pilgrims of the Night" at Ditmas
1t is seldom advisable to recon-
mend a motion picture production
as being worth seeing twice. but pa
irons of the Ditmas theatre will do
well TO set aside time for two per
formances while pilgrims of the
Night" the j.. l.. rockingham pro-
duction distributed by Associated
producers is filling out its engage
ment there.
From a scenic standpoint alone the
production is well worth while, but
the beauty of the scenes cannot be
observed on the first viewing for the
plot of the story is too engrossing
and interest-compelling to let the,
mechanical beauty of the production
be assimilated.
h. Philips Oppenheim provided
the story when he wrote ..Passers
By" Lewis S. Stone, Rubye De Rem
er, William V. Mong, Kathleen Kirk
ham. Raymond Hatton, Walter Nc
Grail and Frank Leigh so wildly
portray their respective roles that
against blank walls the story would
hold interest and suspense to the
end.
The settings provided for their
acting, however, are well worth
while more study that one viewing
of the picture permits. There are
historical and picturesque scenes in
both England and France that are
worth studying merely for their
sheer realism.
They were built from real photo
graphs. made by the famous new
Shipman process which makes it
possible. to so enlarge actual photo
graphs OF local ene that they car
be built into the sets and in the film
give results as accurate as though
the scenes themselves had been en-
acted in the actual location.
The story is one OF society crooks
and is filled with intrigue and ro-
nance intermiugled in the famous
Oppenheim way. The cast is emf
emily satisfactory and the settings
are lavish. 1t is of the best pro-
auctions that has been shown in
Perth Amboy for a long time,
