osanta Fe Trailu-Majesfic

1.-THE Santa Fe TRAIL which be-
gan it's engagement at the Majestic
Theatre yesterday is of unusual in
tcrest to the feminine portion of
society for the simple reason that 1t
not only tells in an entertaining
manner, an extremely interesting
love story, but 1t also marks a dis
tinct step forward in Woman's
march of progress.
Women have, it would seem, in
vaded almost all the fields of en-
deavor formerly considered sacred
to the male sex, but 1t appears that
they had overlooked the producing
of motion pictures. This, hereto
fore, had apparently been a mascu-
line prerogative, but now comes Miss
Neva Gerber, a charming and sue
cessful actress of the silent drama
who, not content with the success
she had obtained in the latter role,
decided to branch out as a producer
in her own right.

Seventy-five Will Be Treated
by Dr.. Adolf Lorenz Here
Tomorrow

More than 100 cripples visited the
] Elks home in Madison venue yes
terday for examination by local ply
s.cians to ascertain If they we're
eligible for treatment by DR.. Adolf
! Lon enz, the noted bloodless surgeon
who is to visit this city tomorrow
under the auspices of the ,ocal
Elks Lodge. OF the number ex
amined, tickets admitting them to
DR.. Lorenz was issued to sc Isnty-
live persons. Some of these cases
are such that it is doubtful II DR..
lorenz can do anything for them,
but they pleaded SO pathetically with
ne physicians for just one chance
to see the famous surgeon. that the
doctors making the preliminary ex-
aminations could not turn them
away.
The doctors who made the prelim-
mary examinations yesterday were
DIR. William L. Ramsay, a charter

der of Elks; DR.. Charles w. Naulty,

Elks committee in charge of DR..
Lorenz's visit here consists of w.
Guy Weaver, Emil Stremlau, Charles
r. Simmer, Harold E. Pickersgil1
and E. T. Reed.
At first it was believed that the
number of cases to be submitted to
DR.. Lorenz would have to be limited
to a certain number, but indications
at this time are that all cases will
be taken care of. Those who sub
mitted to the preliminary examina-
ton yesterday varied in ages from
four months to seventy-three years.
One woma was seventy-three years
old and M man sixty-flve years old.
Among those who were examined
yesterday were cripples from Bel
mar, Keyport, New Brunswick,
Woodbridge, and South Amboy. One
family arrived from Medina, Ohio,
with a crippled boy. When asked
why they had come so far to see
DR.. Lorenz. they informed MI. Pick
ersgill that they had made several
attempts to see the famous surgeon
but each time had failed. When
they read that he would hold a elm
ic in this city they decided to come
here and try and have the boy ex-
amined. They were assured that DR..
Lorenz would see the boy during
his staY here.

THEATRES
"Adam's Rib"-Strand

Cecil B. De Miles new Paramount
picture, adams Rib" was shown
with marked success at the Strand
theatre last night. The picture, feat
uring Milton Stills, Elliott Dexter
Theodore Kosloff, Anna @. Nilsson,
Pauline Garon and Julia Faye Is a
story of the modern girl as an asset
rather than q burden to her family.
The direction by Cecil De Mile Is
faultless and the photography and
scenic effects are nothing short OF
marvellous. The vision scene in the
Museum of Natural History, which
takes one back to the days of the
cavemen is as powerful as it is novel,
1t must be said of Adams Rib" that
it stands alone as an exemplar OF
photoplay perfection. The support
is excellent.
