William, OF the talented BROTH

players as Lewis s. Stone. Bebe
Daniels, kathryn Williams. and
Adolphe Menjou very strong and
cOngenial parts, and backs them
up with a tale whose plot is not
the least bit of the interest in
voked. Hence, upon attending its
performance one may well looked
forward to some solid entertain
ment not unmixed with punch
and a well-emphasized moral.
There is no wasting of time in
fripperies or foolishness before
The Worlds Applause gets
down to the brass tacks of its
story. One learns at the outset
that the beautiful Cora DAILY,
stage named Cora D'Allys," is a
promising young star whose head
has already been turned by floods
of publicity which she misjudged
to be fame rather than notoriety.
She hungers for more and still
more Of this superficial applause
which the world accords her. and
despite the warnings Of her man.
ager and sutton, John Elliot
well-played in depressed way by
Lewis Stone-she encourages the
infatuation Of famous painter in
order to have him do her portrait.
All this for publieity's sake.
Adolphe Menjou does well as Rob-
ert Townsend, the artist, although
he seems more Latin than Ameri-
can and perhaps would have been
more impressive under a nome-de-
play such as Henri DESCRIBES or
the like. Kathlyn Williams, as
his justly-jealous wife. enacts one
Of the best roles Of her long
screen career, and it all works out
tragically yet happily to the end
that, after all, the worlds APP
plause does not count as much
as true endeavor, honest effort
and an inner knowledge that one
is giving his best.
Mr.. DeMille is to be congratu-
lated upon story, sequence, direct
ing, settings and general effect.
The Palace is to be congratulated
