So we may pity the women of the streets and scorn them-scorn them for tn eweakness that yields to temptation, and for the lack of intelligence that makes them throw away all that is worth having in life for nothing.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-04-29

The Japanese have truer vision of fallen women than we have. They call them "the sorrowful sisterhood." Well may we pity those who have bartered their birthright for mess of pottage, and who for the sake of passing in fatuation, or for the qualification of their love of luxury and pleasure, have made of themselves outcasts among women and the playthings of brutal men.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-04-29

Aad girls, rich and poor, are pleasure mad. They want the attentions of men and the good times that men give them, and when they find that men will only take them on wild parties if they are wild women, they have not the courage or the self-control or the high sense of honor that would make them refuse to pay the price.

Palace-"Ie Tess of the
DUrbervilles."

Thomas Hardy wrote of life as ii is
lived. not as screen scenarios usually
make it seem. and this spirit of
reality that saturates MIR. Hardy's
books is carefully preserved in
Marshal Eeilan's film version of Tess
of the D'Crbervilles.' the feature at
the Palace Theater this week. one of
the most beautiful pictures that has
been shown in Washington. Mr.
Neilan has not taken liberties with
the plot and has used English scenery
for most of his settings and their
beauty and picturesqueness aid great
ly in expressing the atmosphere of
Mr.. Hardy's story. Moreover. the true
and logical Unhappy" ending is con-
sistently presented.
For the benefit of those who have
not read the book, the story tells of
Tess. descendant of the aristocratic
.DCrberville family of England. whose
father. however. is the village
drunkard. AS the picture opens. Tess
is light-heartedly at play in the May
day dances with other young people
of the English peasantry. Angel Glare.
the wealthy young hero. is on a
walking tour with his friend. a noted
London lawyer. The young men pause
for a few minutes to watch the
dancers. and Clare is struck by the
innocent beauty of Tess. Even as
the dancers make merry. the black
flag. denoting that some unlucky soul
is being hanged at that hour. is shown
being slowly raised. This sounds the
keynote of inevita BILE tragedy that is
excellently maintained in subtle
fashion throughout the picture.

employer makes use of the age-old

is continuing for the benefit of the
waiting fans who did not see Gloria

Gloria fans find much delight in this

Those who contend that Gloria cannot
act, however may have to admit that
she has come long way from the
Sennett ba athing beach, where she be-
gan her career cavorting in one

The title, ''Manha ndled," forms the
theme of the story, raising the query
as to whether a girl. regardless of her
ability to withstand the temptati tions of
the modern era, can afford to permit
the indiscrimnate fondling that is a
feature of what is known in the ver-
nacular Of the day as 'petting parties,
without seriously impairing her matri-
monial value The picture also shows
a new side to Gloria. comedian side,
her Chaplin imitation being excellent.
