Perritt Had a Neck
Like Picked Turkey

Joe Cantillon has knack OF
being brutally frank at times,
this working in with his subtle
line Of humor. Any OF the play
ers who have ever been assocl-

their memory and always pull
out a laugh
Sherry Magee, now doing
pinch hitting and general utll-
ity role for Milwaukee, tells this
one:
Several seasons ago, when l
was with Minneapolis, Poll Per
rift joined the team. Poll had
neck ike a picked turkey aud
they could never use his map
for any Of those collar ads in
the magazines.
Well, said Joe when Per

In this picture Marc MacDermott
Is cast as one Of the Ruylands who
is dumb, being a mute from birth.
Aunt Augusta, by her cruel
aristocratic power. has made even a
greater wreck out of this lovely, but
sad character. The death scene,
really suicide, as played by Mac
Dermott is masterful in it's implied
horror.
Virginia Valli is the debutante
wife. Excellent. Eugene O'Brien is
Kennion Ruyland and. personally, I
believe that he is the right type.
There is masterful direction be-
hind Siege"

tributions in this class OF entertain

girl who smokes, loves to motor, en-
Joys smart conversation and above
all she loves the man of her choice.
So into this gloomy home of magni-
ficient suppression, Kennion brings
his bride. Aunt Augusta, being a
wise old dame, poured ice all over
the new Mrs. Ruyland. But the
bride refused to freeze up.
Aunt Augusta decided that her
nephew was ito get rid of that
woman" and the old lady launches
a campaign Of killing, with ice an
kindness the spirit in Mrs. Kennion
Ruyland. Auntie was nearly success
full with her plan. A nttle of wits
is played by both women but Aunt
| Augusta was just one magnificent
bunch Of old ideas and she was
forced to melt under the human
treatment Of a modern woman.
This is a bare outline of the story
Siege written BY Universal.
To some people Aunt Augusta will
be a puzzle because they will main
tain hat mo such old woman ever
existed But the Aunt Augustus
have lived in the Victorian period.
Here you see the actual conflict
of the present century against the
old line rock-ribbed generation. Uni
versal has IN Siege" a dramatic
production Of many fine qualities
First Of all, Mary Alden as the
aristocratic Aunt Augusta does some
acting, which deserves being termed
great. She is able to make Aunt
Augusta even human inspite Of the
iron chains Of n dead generation.
So when the picture does become
slightly theatrical at the end, you
feel that Mary Alden by her care
fully sincere characterization has
prepared you for this phase. Here
is real powerful acting. You will
hate Aunt Augusta and cry out
for somebody to give her a sleeping
powder but the character has been
so wonderfully created by Miss
Alden that Aunt Augusta becomes a
living terror

COIN CONCERN
HANDLES PARTS
Relieves Burden on AutOmo-
bile Owners.

The burden Of the upkeep OF a
car Is in the replacement of parts.
Now when one can buy. practically
any part for his car at a saving of
from 40 to rs per cent he may feel
that he has been given a real
service. 8. Cohn and Son, dealers in
used auto parts and used cars Of
all makes, carry a complete line Of
practically new second hand parts.
Having been in the business for a
number Of years at their plant, 142
w. Vermont ST., their service, in ad-
dition to the values they can offer
is worth consideration. Garage
owners as well as automobile drivers
find all manner Of benefit from the
service received there and rarely
fail to find the needed parts for their
uses.
Besides the line Of used auto parts
this company buys and sells used
automobiles and trucks, sending out
a large line of used cars that have
been overhauled.

FRANZ MOLNAR GIVES

The name of Franz Molnar is

he is a Greater of ultra-smart stage

II has been my thought in the

ability TO create smart dialogue IN
contrasting smart European sit
luations.
he seems to enjoy having a noble
man and a poor man playing at the
game OF getting the same woman.
