EFT THE CHILDREN DREAM!

That is the advice of Johan
- Bojer, Norwegian author, in
an account of his life, which is being
distributed with the compliments of
his publishers, the Century Company.
1.-THE best education for any child
is a window through which it may
gaze out upon some fairy world" the
great Norwegian states in the story
of his life as written by himself for
the Century Company.
1T believe there is a connection be-
tween our dreams during our first
years and our achievements when we
grow up" he contends. when to-
day I love beautiful buildings better
than books, when 1 enjoy canter
on horseback better than music, and
when shooting and skiing through
large forests give me the richest men
tai impulses, 1 believe it is SO because
all these things belong to the para
disc of my childhood glimpsod from
the window of a gray cottage"
Permit Bojer to Dream
His Youth for You
Bojer dreams of his youth is as fol-
lows:
THE f1sherman's hut where I grew
up was gray like the sea and the
sand on the beach-like the rocks
around. But if I kneeled upon the
wooden seat under the window I saw
far away the read, yellow and white
painted houses Of the well-to-do. 1t
was like'a bit of Paradise to stare at,
and it was evident to my mind that
the people living in those bright
houses must be bright and beautiful.

Pola Negri HASN'T Yet
Displayed Her Gifts

tifully photographed. in ensemble or
closeup. Gowns, simple and bizarre,
she parades with exquisite grace,
from the wedding rehearsal in a Paris
atelier through a succession Of spec
tacular house parties on Long Island.
Perhaps no other screening so well
dress, especially the cape. But 1t is
this very lavish accoutrement Of per
son and setting, which blurs the TO-
Gus of her impersonation.
Despite it's faults of omission, here
pehaps ALPHABETICALLY considered, the

Is Of more than ordinary merit and
definitely recoups some of Pola's lost
prestige in Bella Donna"

sharper popular definition Of
what constitutes n bad woman"
would facilitate comparison Of Pola's
performance in the two American
made films. 1t would provide an
audience gauge for the actions and
reactions Of the crooked woman as
she porarys her in both roles. the
one a positive sinister creature. the
other negative weakling.
In The Cheat" the Hector Turn
bull story being less familiar than
Kitchens novel, the public will have
more latitude to estimate Miss
Negri's understanding Of the bad
woman" by its own diverse stand
ards.
And so it may be very well be that
Polas refusal to make "Carmelita"
either positively detestable or pitt
able may be generally accepted as
an unusually adroit depletion of the
type. For. after all. how many
creatures of vice in real life have
left a lasting trace upon their time
and place?

BY JACK JUNGMEYER.

HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 15.-"The
Cheat" Pola Negri's second picture
for Lasky- Paramount, is considerably
better than her first, Bella Donna. "
It presents her. however, more the
actress of Passion" and earlier tri-
umphs She has yet to find the
American vehicle and director to
evoke her full gifts.
Pola displays some Of her old fire
and in spots real power in the por-
trait of "Carmelita De Cordoba" an
heiress who impulsively weds a man
of modest income, is disinherited. de-
ceives her husband to get the hnery
he can't provide, plays into the de-
sign of an amatory assailant and has
her duplicity tragically exposed.
She handles the high spots Of the
play with vigor and discretion-the
scene Of her branding by Charles De
Roche as the enraged woman-baiting
art swindler; the auctioned kiss at a
charity bazar; her confession to her
husband. Jack Holt. Of the mess she's
made and her motives and the display
of her scared shoulder to the jury in
the courtroom finale.
T.
But she is the cheat, deceiving both
husband and pursuer in her lust of
luxury, by play of circumstance
rather than by any essential soul
warp. A woman who never ceases
to love her husband. who never is
grossly disloyal. who doesn't so much
as fiirt with the sybarite, who is liar
rather than cheat with its more com
plicated depravity.
Her characterization never quite
compasses the implications Of the
title, but probably to restrictions of
the story as screened and its super
fetal handling by Director George
Fitzmaurice Richer shading of the
role would have made It more mem
orable It lacks the deep imprint Of
terror. malice. relished cunning. &c
stacy or what not which makes a
character or picture indelible. Han
ding Of THE Cheat" permits Miss
Negri to be good, but not great. and
one expects something better than
good from her.
