TOM MEIGHAN
IN ROMANCE
OF SEA

A tingling tale of the world Of
ships Is Homeward Bound" the
latest starring production for
Thomas Meighan which will be
given its first Washington pre-
sentation at Loew's Palace for
the week beginning next Sunday,
August IL. In addition to offer.
ing q new starring production for
Thomas Meighan, the same pro.
duction will constitute a new
photoplay by that master of sea
romance, Peter B. Kyne, author
OF the world famous novel and
theater success, "Cappy Ricks.'
A third element of popular appeal
lies in the fact that Mr.. Meighan's
leading woman is none other than
the dainty Lila ("Cuddles'D Lee.
Jack Cunningham and Paul
Sloane are responsible for the
adaptation to the screen of
''Homeward Bound which will
be remembered by thousands OF
readers of Mr.. Kyne's stories as
"The Light to Leeward." It has
been directed by Ralph Ince, who
has brought to Mr.. Meighan's
support a splendid cast that in
cludes Charles Able, William T.
Carleton, Hugh Cameron, Gus
Weinberg, Maud Turner Gordon,
Cyril Ring, Katherine Spencer
: and many others.
Mr.. Meighan has the role Of q
seaman in this story Of q New
England sea-coast town and the
wide reaches Of the ocean. Hav-
ing saved his ship at sea when
the captain loses his nerve, Jim
Bedford, the seaman impersonated
by Mr.. Meighan, sees the captain
hailed as a hero and rewarded
with the command Of a new yacht
that is to take the owners daugh-
ter to sea. The girl and Jim Sc
cretly love each other and are
quietly married just before Jim
takes a leaky schooner to sea.
How he saves the yacht in a
storm and collects salvage for his
wedding expenses are elements of
strong and fascinating interest,
with Lila Lee as the girl.

adapted the story to the screen,
also wrote the continuity for
''Humoresque," another great Cos
mopolitan production.
THE Love Piker" is the story
Of a snobbish, wealthy society girl
who falls in love with self-made
engineer. The story runs smooth
ly until the day he takes the girl
into the slums to visit his fathe"
and this visit almost skaters the
engagement. On the very eve Of
the wedding, the girl lacks the
courage to invite her prospective
father-in-law and the dramatic
strength Of the story comes at this
point as the girl finally goes
through a sort of regeneration and
on the day of the wedding, drives
into the poor part Of town in her
limousine and brings the father
to the wedding.
