 The Moose" is a highly dramatic vehicle of which. the star and di- rector have fully ayailed them selves.

First Ma tional Pictures has supplied a re- markably wall-balanced cast ol first rate artists, splendid pro- ductio1 and excellent photography
 Richard Barthelmess enacts the role of Nickie Elkins. a youtf raised in an underworld environ ment, who is caught in the ironiS mesnes of very melodramlc com bination of circumstances. To tel you what the situation Is would bt to spoil your enjoyment. Sufflcien to say. it is gripping and unusual garthelmess avaiis himself of thu bread opportunities for histrionisn and achieves the dramatic height of which he is so capable.
