THE NEW SALLIE
PUZZLES CURTISS

Coming back from St. Augustine
Surtiss Wright way strangely quiet.
Several times tried to break in upon
his meditation, bSE ne answered me
in monosyllables md l knew his
thoughts were distant.
Before alighting from the car he turn
ed to me and said slowly: 1--WE been
thinking, Sallie, that it would be bet
ter for me to clear out until your faith
er has completely recovered and work
on the settlement can be finished"
| said nothing.
"Walter Hull and his wife have in
vited me on hunt at their lodge near
Orlando" he continued. 81 hadn't
thought of accepting, but"
Anything NOW is better than being
my guest, is that the idea?" l inter-
Fupted.
1T isn't quite fair of you to say
that and under the circumstances l
believe you understand why l am leav
ing"
81 don't understand anything" l
pouted. 81 suppose Anne Coddington
will be accompanying you on this sort
of house-party- in-the-woods arrange
ment."
81 haven't asked her, but they told
me to bring some girl along with me,
and if you really think that she'll en-
joy it, perhaps l shall pass on to her
the invitation"
l was furious and rising sense OF
loneliness crept over my whole being.
He must have felt my unhappiness,
for he reached over and took both my
hands in his, saying very gently:
81 know YOU don't want to go, Sal
lie. IT'S going to be rough-the worse
kind. There'll be no hot water nor any
sort of fluffy-ruffles. Just simple and
wholesome, not ven drop of liquor
"Oh, but I'd love and adore it. I'm
5000 tired and sick of everything
and everybody Please, please take me
with YOU" The words came in plead
ing cadence, swiftly tumbling one aft
er the other.
"Whatp' he exclaimed" the most
sought after belle in the South begging
to go on a camping party? A girl with
( more scalps at her slender wait-llne

But I'm wild about shooting"

V0N STROHEIM'S
 GREED PROVES
 TRIUMPH OF ART
STARK REALISM IN PHOTOPLAY VERSION OF FRANK NORRIS
 GREAT NOVEL, "M'TEAGUE

The most talked of picture of the year comes to the Liberty Theatre tonight for the first time. It is Eric von Stroheim's production of Creed the Metro-Goldwyn directors literal film version of Frank Norriss novel "McTeague."
 During it's two years of production the picture was the subject or lnnu- merable newspaper and magazine ar ticles. The fact that von Stroheim at tempted stark, uncompromising real ism without the slightest sop to the atrical convention, that he staged the picture entirely in the actual locations described in the original novel, and that in the latter consideration he led an expedition into Death Valley, made the picture a topic of wide interest. New York reviewers quoted it as the most important picture ever made.
 Greed" tells the story of an ex- carboy of the Big Dipper mine who picks up a smattering of crude den- tistry, eventually opening an unlicens- ed office in San Francisco, marries the daughter of a thrifty Swiss-German family living in Oakland and then goes into mental and physical disinte-
