"SEA HORSES.
A Sea Drama with Touch of
Mystic Africa.

A Sea Drama with Touch of
Mystic Africa.
Given a smashing, colorful &C
ton tale of romance and adventure,
and told to produce it on a sweep
ing, spectacular scale, Allan Dwan
has made of Francis Brett Young's
dynamic novel, "Sea Horses" a
thrill-crowded melodrama of strik-
ing beauty and picturesqueness
The plot deals in vigorous and re-
freshing manner with the stirring
experiences of a lovely, cultured
English girl on board an ocean
freighter and in an isolated port on
the East African coast.
This combination of land and sea
background adds immeasurably to
the charm and fascination OF the
photoplay. Dwan has recreated with
amazing fidelity the rough, coarse
life of those who go down to the sea
in ships, and has reproduced with
vivid realism the strange, sinister at
mosphere of mysterious Africa.
The fundamental appeal OF the
story which springs from it's tense
drama, gripping suspense and COM
polling love theme, is further
heightened by the very spirited act
ing of the competent personnel.
Jack Holt plays perfectly up to
the virile requirements OF the fear
less sea captain. 1t is a role made
to order for him, and he handles 1t
in his characteristic twO-fisted FASH
ion. The part of the lone girl, bat
thing bravely against hidden dangers
and overwhelming odds, is made ra-
diant by the loveliness and talent OF
Florence Vidor. Those who en-
Unused over George Bancroft's por-
trayal of the smiling villain in 1.-The
Pony Express will glory in his
characterization Of the burly, brutal
| mate, who redeems himself with his
final self-sacrifice.
"Sea Horses will be the feature
at the Dirigo next Monday and
Tuesday. -Advt.

Would CUT COSTS
OF MAKING BREAD
Food Companies Merger Also
Has Possibility of Lower
Prices.
By j. {. ROYLE.


Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, January ?2.-Possi
hility Of a reduction in the price OF
bread without a corresponding cut IN
the margin of profits of the producing
companies concerned is the object
aimed at in the formation of a new
food products company under the
leadership of William B. Ward. MI
Ward is president of the Ward bak'
ing Co. and was the outstanding hS.
ure in the formation Of the Genera
Baking Corporation, the $500 ,ooo,ooo
bakery merger.
The formation of the new company
is not a sudden development. Nearly
two years ago Air. Ward outlined MS
policies in this respect to the writer
and the present action was forecast IN
dispatches published at that time. Ihe
big baker stated then IL was uneco-
romical for large bread producers 10
huy their materials from unrelated
firms, leaving a profit behind at every
transaction.
Monopoly Issue Arises.
Only enough companies to supply
the needs of the bread interests IN
volved will be taken into the concern.
Men in close touch with the situation
anticipate a Government ruling within
y
in effect that there can be no monop-
DIV in bread production, since every
housewife can set the materials re-
ouired and make her own bread If
she so desires.
one of the men closely affiliated with
the bread company merger declared
today that if all the plants of the Con
tinental Baking Co. which was the
largest single concern. were TO make
bread for New York alone. they could
not turn out enough to feed this city.
Men concerned in the new venture
assert that the volume of wheat. flour,
salt and milk produced and the man.
ner of production make monopoly IN
any of these products A practical i'm
possibility.
First Move OF Kind.
The idea Of the food products com
panv is not a new one, but 1t has
never been adopted by the baking in
dustrv before The Ward Co, 1t Is
true. has a flour mill in Canada. but
most of the commodities consumed
are bought in open market. The
Ford Co, the L. s. Steel Corporation
and many others have utilized the
idea back of the food company with
conspicuous success.
Under the plan. all the bakeries in
volved would receive exactly the same
quality Of flour. milk, yeast. salt ana
other component parts. 1t Is planned
to keep the quality up to fixed stand
ard through constant laboratory tests.
and the resulting products snoulu
therefore be uniform.
