read story by George Barr McCutch-
con; Marion Davis plays the role of
Beverly Calhoun. An American girl
goes abroad with her cousin, who has
inherited royal throne, and marries
a Grown Prince after much intrigue
and adventure. Beverly Calhoun re-
turning home finds her cousin Oscar
is heir to the throne of Graustark,
the parents having been exiled during
a political upheaval. Beverly and
Oscar proceeded to Graustark where
General Marlanx, hearing of the COM
ing of the prince, plots to assassinate
him. While at an inn in the Alps,
Oscar met with an accident and could
not be moved. At the Dukes sug
gestion Beverly donned Oscars uni
form and proceeded toward Graustark.
Marlanx discovered the disguise and
prepared to expose the fraud on coro-
nation day thus laying claim to the
crown. But the real prince, Oscar,
arrived at the opportune moment so
the coronation could proceed. The
story closes and Beverly did marry
a prince after all.

Laura Nielsen visited the second grade
