TRAINS
NOVEL IN PICTURES
"His Children's Children"
Coming to The
Rylander

Early in 1928 a sensational novel
appeared in the New York book
market. Within four months it had
swept the country, and taken the
position of the second best seller in
the book stores to date. This au-
thor was new to most of the public,
but today he is more talked Of than
any one in the literary field.
Arthur Train, New York attor-
ney, jumped into the limelight over
night with "His Children's Chill
dren." Mr.. Trains book from his
standpoint is not work of fiction.
He wrote one of the worlds greatest
novels out Of personal experience he
had pieced together from his years
of law practice in New York City.
I The characters he wrote of were
characters he had encountered.
Many Of his experiences were per-
isonal and he knows New York as
! few authors know it, And this has
been picturized by Paramount.
! 1t is d story of New York's de-
generate generations. 1t is a story
Of three generations of New York
ers. 1t asks the question boldly, if
this is a sample of what we find in
New York's upper strata then
what is New York really coming to-?
Vital pictures of New York life are
always interesting 1t is not a pic
ture of New York cabaret or New
York night life, These are only in
cidentaI.
1t is the story of family from
the first generation to the third
of human happiness - of human
weaknesses-human strength. 1t tells
of moral and mental decay, but in
d clean, gripping, vivid manner. 1t
is just as modern as the five star
edition Of today's newspapers. Its
theme of modern life is the theme
of The Covered Wagon" in ths
day of 40.
1t shows how the great fortune
of pioneer railroad builder-a
typical American figure-a fortune
won in rapacity and brutality - re-
acts through a SNUG second genera
ton, and skaters the whole family
to pieces in this, the third genera

Speaking before the convention OF

preventing labor disturbances gen.

Attention was also directed by
him to the assistance rendered by

maximum production in the great

insured through such cooperation
between labor and capital.

horse was frightened and nervous
the driver left his seat and lead
his horse along, talking to him
like a pal!
