TRIANON BOOKS CHRISTINE HERE First National Picture TO Star Lovely Florence
 VidOr

"The way of woman with man, might be changed to ''The way of a woman with three men, in describing Thomas H. Ince's newest First Nation al picture, Christine" from the novel by Kathleen Norris, which come to the Trianon Monday.
 Christine" lovely and cultured, welded Stuart Knight, a young man. about-town. Her way with him was loyalty and affection, even after he proyed untrue. It required an auto wreck, in which she nearly lost her life, to cause Christine to leave Stuart.
 Dr. Alan Monteagle, who brought Christine back to health after this dis aster, became her second husband. Monteagle was a specialist, wrapped up in his work. He left his wife for long periods, while away on professional du- ties. Christines way with him was to plead for more attention-but her pleas were in vain. ....
 Then came the poet, Ivan Vianney. Ivan was as romantic as his own heroes, and into Christine's ear he poured his protestations of love.
 Christines way with him was to elope, leaving her husband and taking her lit tie son on her honeymoon" to South America.
 Then began the dramatic episodes that make Christine of the Hungry Heart" picture with a genuine "punch." The outcome of that strange elopement, the subsequent events and the unexpected finish give n zest to the story that few possess.
 Christine" is played in inimitable fashion by beautiful Florence Vidor. It is a characterization that will long be remembered by Miss Vidor's admirers, and one that vividly illustrates her dramatic ability.
 Give Brook, eminent English actor, is cast as Dr. Monteagle, Warner Bax- ter is the dissolute first husband and Walter Hiers plays Christine's brother. Ian Keith is we'll cast in the role of the poet.
 The picture was directed by George Archainbaud and photographed by Hen " Sharpe. It is adapted from the Kathleen Norris novel by Bradley King.

SiIuer and Gold

The crescent of the little beach was
like a silver bow. Far out over the
glistening waters stretched the gleam-
ing pathway of the moon. The tide
was on the turn and each succeeding
wave tossed glittering jewels nearer
to our feet. The moon had lightly
touched the sands and transformed
them to grains of the purest silver;
she had changed a prosaic rowboat to
a ship of dreams. Above us the depth
of the inky sky was thickly inlaid
with golden stars. Other stars, nearer
the horizon, were caught and held by
the sea as, huddled close together,
they vainfy strove to vie with their
loftier brethren. The little rlpples
seemed to be sharing some delightful
secret. We could hear them whisper
ing together about 1t, and when they
met and played among the rocks they
chuckled gleefully. Who cares for
the silver and gold of merchandise,
with Its cllnk and jangle? Richer far,
Is he that holds the memory of one
precious hour when words were not
spoken, but felt, when silence brooded,
fraught with meaning, and the soft,
sweet chuckles of the waves were the
only voices. An hour all inwrought
with natures silver and gold.

Whole World in Need
of Nelu Mark TapIev

1t was an English humorist, Charles
Dickens, who invented that supreme
type of the laughing philosopher.
Mark Tapley. Mark Tapley was n
kind of Don Qulxote of humor He
made 1t his business to seek out those
most desperate situations, In which
most people would find little enough
to laugh at and pit his invinclble
gayety against their blackest gloom.
The drearier the situation In which
he found himself the higher his spirits
would rise. and the only occasions on
which he grew mournful were those
which were not gloomy enough to af-
ford worthy background for his art.
says Richard LIE Gallienne in Nc
Naught's Monthly. He was a price
less creation and he should be living
at this hour. for the food for his mirth
was surely never so mysteriously
plentiful. How the European situa-
tion would make him rub his hands
with delight For. while on every
hand the prophets of woe are vaticln-
ating the direct happenings, he would
contrive somehow to extract sunshine
from the inky chaos and gild the
storm clouds with rainbows.
No more valuable human being
could be born just now than new
Mark Tapley. The whole world cries
out for him. For, while we could we'll
do with higher percentage of great
ness in our statesmen, there is no one
we need so much as a new great hui
morist, that once more the world may
return to laughter.
We have plenty of minor humorists
both in England and America. don't
know how 1t Is with France and Italy.
From all accounts, laughter is not
quite dead even in soviet Russia.
But since Mark Twain there Is no
great world laughter, no humorist on
a large international scale. Our hui
morists are all sectional. We have no
humorist big enough to lash the gloom
away with satire, to bring good hu-
NOR back to the world and rouse 1t
out of Its doleful dumps.
If you say that there is not much to
laugh at, the spirit of Mark Tapley
is ready with the retort that evidently
then the more need for laughter.

WESTERN WOMEN

By Consolidated Press,

SAN FRANCISCO, November 7-At
least two popular beliefs regarding
woman's exercise of the ballot were
proven fallacious throughout the
far West in the presidential cleo
tion. Femininity, 1t was shown,
takes more pride in voting and pro-
yideS less election slackers than does
the stronger sex. Also the supposed
ly discerning individual who advised
Us that wives always voted the way
their lords and masters told 'em, is
shown to be all wrong.
The upset of the popular belief
that women had never developed an
over-enthusiastic yen toward exer-

found in the results in at least three
Pacific Coast States. Here in Cali

Don't Follow, Hubbies.
Apropos the oft heard assertion that
the rank and file of wives vote as
their male halves dictate, such stun
must go into the scrap heap along
with the aspirations of certain per-
sons to the presidency. If there is
any doubt there are dozens Of cases
TO prove it which can be testified to
by election boards right here in San
F>rancisco-one of them is a matter
Of police record.
Numerous husbands, it develops, ac-
companied their wives to the polls
with the evident intention of showing
them how to mark their ballots But
the woman folk. it likewise de-
veloped, are quite capable of doing
their own ballot marking. The in
stance which got into the police
records, but in which no arrests
were made, is typical of them all
In this case, friend husband not
only insisted on telling his helpmate
how to vote, but insisted on accom-
Danying her into the curtained booth
to see that his political views were
faithfully followed. The wife OBJ
jected and the election officials
backed her up. The law in such
cases was with the wife and the cleo
tion officials, for it prohibits more
than one person from occupying a
voting booth at one time. The hus-
band, however, was insistent and de-
fed the election officialS-until the
police came and told him to wait
outside
Later, when the wife had demon
strated the freedom of her political
