was supposed to exist when the
Carr was living. There is an old
saying that something is wrong in
Denmark" and IL the stories are
true that they tell about old Russia,
then the old saying is wrong as
everything was rotten in Russia.
But these stories do turn out to
be exciting melodrama, nothing but
that. Such stories require hundreds
Of people in the cast. The sets are
over elaborate, everything is done
on a royal scale. Then there is a
chase and this picture has a real
one-the heroine is in danger on a
private yatch. So they call out a
navy destroyer and the chase is on.
In modern movie melodrama, the
director does not stop with auto
mobiles, he uses an entire army and
navy about any time he pleases. This
time he uses part of the navy.
Movie melodrama falls into a
definite class and that is the reason
that 1 always call particular atten-
ton to melodrama as 1t is not fair
to judge it by dramatic standards.
Melodrama is the impossible side
of drama made possible for enter
tanning purposes as the quality Of
cleverness and ability comes from
the director and the cast.
On that basis 1.-THE Midnight Sun"
is melodramatic entertainment upon
a lavish and expensive entertain
ment. 1t Is that and nothing more.
think the director should. have
kept the atmosphere more Russian
in its tempo and complexion. In
other words he has Americanized
the story a wee bit too much.
This picture cost fortune. The
cast is headed by Laura La Plante,
as the ballet dancer from America
who is pure at heart although she
does some Of the craziest things that
81 good girl never would even dream
of, and by Pat O'Malley who struts
his good looks all over the lot while
dressed in a nifty Russian army
uniform. This man is becoming a
matinee idol. He has the looks and
the t'way."
Miss LaPlante does good and con-
vincing work even in the most melo.
dramatic passages. O'Malley is Inn
proving In every picture. The cast
is notable because It includes Ray
mond Reane, George Siegmann,
Arthur Hoyt and others, hundreds

of difficult situations. Denny is a
comedian who must rely upon the
story and the business" of the
piece to put him over. I certainly
would not start yelling with laughter
at the sight Of Denny. He just is
not that kind of funmaker. Many
people have told me that they would
laugh at just seeing the late John
Bunny appear. Flora Finch would
make me laugh, even If she was at
tending a funeral.
But Denny belongs to the other
school OF comedians. He thinks out
carefully his comedy scenes. In
Take It From Me" the biggest
laugh that he gets land 1t is a roar
is when he gets under a shower
bath by mistake in the bedroom ex-
hibit in a department store.
Here is a fine comedy scene and
one which makes this picture diff
ferent from the others. And it is
a logical comedy scene as it is a
real part CT the story. 1t is this
ability of Denny to develop that
different sort of comedy scenes
which is causing Denny to grow
in the estimation Of many theater
goers.
Denny doesn't attempt to balance
himself on roller skates but he has
the assistance of Ben Hendrick. Jr..
and Lee Moran who do frolic on said
foot gear. But Denny knows how
TO be present in such scenes.
And Denny is improving in his
love making That is good news.
This is shown in the quiet but eff
fective love scenes which he has
with Blanche Mehaffey. Denny has
now caught that needed something
in his eye and the camera records
1t. There are many things that an
actor has to learn and one of them
is to be a good everyday love
maker. OF course the late Valen-
tino dolled up in weird and hot
shelk garments. but it isn't necessary
for Denny TO do that. Denny has
learned the come here" eye trick.
All in all, you will find Take II
From Me" light little farce. story
improbable but so full of delicious
comedy on the part of Denny that
one is pleased to vote in Denny's
favor.

until nearly the last foot of film. And
then virture, honesty and love
triumphs just as they generally dc
in story books. This movie probably
was selected for Menjou, because It
gives him a chance to look like a
villain and then to glorify himself,
because he was really all right all
the time.
When Menjou becomes naughty
and a little wicked, it is done for
the purpose Of not offending a
certain woman. The certain woman
is played by Alice Joyce.
Menjou is cast as an army officer
in London. One of his fellow Of

Menjou does. but Menjou slirs the
ring on her finger first. But before
Menjou can walk up the church aisle

SaCCo-VanZetti

According to the French Journal,
Humanite, a deputation Of com
munists called at the American en-
bassy recently to say that while our
tourists were in no danger because
of feeling over the debt pact, they
would be in danger If any harm
came to Sacco and Vanzetti.
Sacco and Vanzetti are the
criminals who face death in Mas
sachusetts after having been con-
victed Of murder, and around whose
fate a worldwide connection has
swirled for the last five years. Com
munists from South America to
Moscow are obsessed with the idea
that they were deliberately and mis-
chieviously railroaded not because
their guilt was proved but because
the State was able to frame n
plausible case against them.
They were avowed Communists
and conspicuously identified with a
textile strike, and communists the
world over will believe nothing,
but that they were convicted only on
this account.

Il CASTEYOUR OWN VOTE

When you go to the polls tomorrow, much more
important than what ballot you may cast is that you
cast your own VOTE arrived at by your own judg-
lions.
The right to vote is too lightly regarded in these
days. There time not so many years ago. that
the men who founded this Nation risked their lives
in order that they might establish their own gov
eminent
1t would be pity if what men won on battle
fields should be lost through apathy indifference or
disgust.
The men who make business of politics under
stand this growing Indifference and rely upon it.
More than that they rely upon the proneness of
many to accept labels instead of principles party
slogans instead of character inherited prejudces in
stead of intelligent investigation and honest thought
An alert, interested citizenship may make blum
ders and mistakes in judgment, but it is safe.
An apathetc. prejudice-held citizenship is always
in danger.
Look around you and see where your interest
lies.
This appeal is made to those who want only fair
dealing and honesty in government The men who
expect special favors, immunity from criminal prose
cutons privileges from those in power need no such
an appeal
You may be very sure that the bootlegger, the
gambler the law volator, the tax dodger the crooked
contractor the professional bondsman the whole
tribe of antsocia forces have their minds thorough
ly made up as to what candidates will afford them
