"Trifling With Honor. 4"

A man may carry the plaudits
of the multitude and yet look
with friendless eye upon man
kind. He may see beyond the
laughing faces that cheer him in
to grim void that can sweep him
from the easy trail of public fav-
into a gray life of lonliness and
shame. drifting With Honor"
a Universal Jewel photoplay
which comes to Vashon Saturday
evening, a human drama of man
who, in a baseball suit, was an
idol of thousands of fans, but who,
himself, was an escaped convict,
whose freedom resulted in the
strength of a frail mask of his
real identity. William Slavens
McNutt wrote the story for Col
lier's Weekly.

She then has to attend to the var
ious guests who come with gifts for
the newly married couple; but she
is not allowed to speak to them;
neither does her husband address
her. All IS commands, given by
signs. have to be oboyed promptly,
and should the girl be slow or not
understand the meaning of his
gestures. she is instantly smartened
up with sharp blow from the lash.
1t is n po:n of honor that she uttefs
no sound, however hard she is
dashed.
