THEATERS
WONDERFUL DRAMA IN
SINGLE WIVES AT D & R

Those who appreciate drama Of
the more subtle variety; who ap-
preciate a strong heart-reaching story
with a powerful theme, excellently
enacted, will find all this and more in
"Single Wives" the First National
picture which. comes to the D & R
Sunday and Monday.
"Single Wives" dealing with a class
of women common to our present day
existence, who are virtually forced
to seek attention away from their
own fresides because of the indiffer-
ence of their husbands, can be con-
sidered one of the most powerfully
dramatic pictures dealing with con-
temporary home life, that has come
to Aberdeen in months.
The impelling feature Of the pie
ture is the highly entertaining and
truly natural story that it unfolds.
In the character of Betty Jordan, a
misunderstood bride, Corinne Griffith
has a sympathetic role ideally suited
to this popular film beauty. Milton
Sills, who is co-featured, is excellent
in the difficult characterization of the
busy husband, who is SO wrought up
in making dollars that he fails to
note that his wife is drifting away
from him.
Much credit is due to George Arch
ainbaud, who directed the picture
from a story by Earl Hudson. An
unusual directorial finesse is noted
throughout the whole picture. The
situations are admirably well con-
nected, the colorful background of
wealth setting off to the greatest pos
sible advantage the smoothly running
story.
One of the chief charms of "Single
Wives" is it's difference to the usual
run of society and matrimonial prob
lem plays, and much of this, of course
can be credited to the members of the
excellent cast which enact the several
roles. Supporting Miss Griffith and
Mr.. SilIs are such screen lurninaries
as Kathlyn Williams, Lou Tellegen,
Henry B. Walthall, Phyllis Haver,
Phillips Smalley, Jere Austin and
John Patrick.

GREEN
APPEALS FOR CHILD
Continued from Page One)

demonstrated the need of constitu-
tional authorization to make such
law effective. This amendment is nee
essary to bring about unity in the
regulation of child labor so that the
children of all the states shall have
equal opportunity to develop mentally
and spiritually. The first step in Sc
curing that federal amendment was
completed with its approval by Con-
gress. The next step is ratification
by the various states.
"Forty-two state legislatures are to
meet in the year 1925. To secure
favorable action upon the amendment
authorizing Congress to limit, regu-
late and prohibit the labor of persons
under eighteen years of age we must
concentrate our ability, our energy,
our resources to that end.
"The enemies of the amendment are
resourceful and vigilant. Though
we are trebly equipped because of the
justice, the humanity and the wisdom
of our cause, there is grave need
that we devote ourselves unreservedly
to the ratification of the amendment
by each of the states. call all labor
to do its full share.
"This amendment was in a very
distinctive way the work of our great
leader, Samuel Gompers. The aboli-
ton of child labor was purpose upon
which he had deep feeling. He or
ganized the Permanent Committee for
the Abolition of Child Labor which
formulated this amendment and urg-
ed it's adoption by Congress. 1t will
be a peculiarly impressive expression
of our regard for our former president
to give the ratification of this amend
ment priority on all legislative pro-
grams.
an this purpose of fundamental inn
portance not only to labor but to our
nation, l appeal to all humanitarian
and patriotic citizens that they give
their support to this policy necessary
for sustained national progress.
Though that portion of our move
ment which is in Canada is not di-
rectly concerned in this effort for the
child labor amendment, yet they are
directly affected by whatever stand
ards we may secure. Is not the time
opportune for the workers in Cana
da to weld another link in the bond
uniting our economic movement by
making the conservation of child life
the paramount issue for the coming
year?

About Lingerie.
Somebody said that real culture and
refinement began only when people
started to care for things which were
ordinarily not visible. such as lingerie,
for example. During the darkest CEN
turtles of the Middle ages coarse wool
was in order for shirts; later cnme
linen. We find that some sybaritic
persons have worn silk chemises dur
Ing the Twelfth century. These
chemises were Of heavy silk and DIFF
fered from the outer garments that
were worn next to the skin.
The slashed and wide-sleeved gar
ment OF the Middle ages gave oppOr-
tunity to display the chemise In case
one had any. 1t was still an article
of great luxury and many a queen and
princess did not own half dozen. The
garments were colorful, while the
chemise was white.

THE PAINTED LADY" AT THE
WEIR MONDAY TO THURSDAY

How "The Painted Lady" made
Buck Jones, the William Fox western
star lose his iron cowboy nerve and
acting self control is one of the hu-
morous inside stories told about the
big lot of the William Fox West Coast
Studios, Hollywood.
They were shooting" a Twentieth
Century Unlimited" Youth de luxe
scene of ''The Painted Lady," Keeling
and rocking with This is the life;"
an ecstasy of wine, women and jazz.
On an adjoining set, Buck Jones in
a western mystery drama was sup
posed to enter a haunted ranch house
and stalk the real" ghost, looking
duly spooly.
Suddenly Buck lost his acting nerve
and acted like a garden variety of
citizen. He just couldn't act. He
threw up his hands and laughed.
The trouble wasn't the "ghost" but
director Chester Bennett of ''The
Painted Lady," next door. To speed
up the frenzied syneopated gaiety Of
the 'petting party" he had turned
loose a rapid fire jazz orchestra, and,
as Buck put it to his director:
''You can't act spoOky or scared
with that jazz going stronger at
least ! can't"

NEVER SAY DIE" IS
BIG COMEDY SUCCESS

"Never Say DE-" which comes to
the Weir Sunday only is an adapta-
ton of one of Willie Golfers great
est New York Successes. It kept
Broadway laughing for a year. The
piece has also attained international
fame. Fred Niblo and Enid Bennett
played in it in Australia where its
success was tremendous. The late
Sir Charles Hawtrey starred in the
piece in London at the Apollo The
atre and British audiences laughed
themselves almost to death at this
famous comedy.
The late Nat Goodwin played the
leading role in "Never Say Die" for
three years on the road throughout
the United States. So great was his
popularity that stock companies all
over the continent each year repeat
the piece to enthusiastic audiences.
Consequently Never Say Die" is
known throughout the civilized world
as one Of the greatest laughing sue
cesses of a decade. 1t was written
by William H. Post, well-known stage
director and actor, who played in "the
Seventh Heaven" during its two years
on Broadway.
This is the second time Douglas
MacLean has scored in a Willie Collier
success. The world will never forget
his fine screen version of ''The Hot
tentot," which as a stage production
was one Of Golfers greatest tri-
umphs. The combination of the
names of Willie Collier and Douglas
MacLean is the assurance of surefire
entertainment.
