eth Heaven Is
Acclaimed Great
Screen Drama

"7th Heaven" has been brought
to the screen and opened four
day engagement at the Valley
Theater last night.
The atmosphere of the Paris
Montmartre, where the plot of the
story is laid, is accurately carried
out in the settings and the photo.
graphic effects.
The characterizations of the play
ers are said to be inspired, particu.
larly that of Janet Gaynor, who ap
pears as the winsome, frightened
and finally glorified "Diane " and
Charles Farrell, who is the hand
some, egotistical, generous and
thoroughly lovable "Chico."
"7th Heaven' is the story of
two of the lowest types of Parisians
worker in the sewers of Paris
and waif Of the Paris streets. But
because of the glorious doctrine of
courage which it breaches and the
marvellous things it does to both
of their characters it has been
called one of the greatest and one
of the most beautiful love stories
ever written. The play created a
sensation when produced for a rec
ord run on Broadway, and the pic
ture is surprising the reputation
established by the play.
Besides the two principals the
cast includes Ben Bard, David But
ter, Albert Gran, Gladys Brockweli,
George Stone, Emile Chautard,
