 That, in essence, is the basis of H. L. Gates newspaper serial, Joanna" the film version vi which comes to the Palace Sun day.
 The theme is: If girl is a good girl, she will always remain a girl of virtue regardless of her environment, and if a girl isn't a good girl, her environment mat. ters little-no matter in what age she lives.
 Dorothy Mackaill elfScts> the title role, that of poor dress model who suddenly finds a mil lion dollars at her disposal to spend as she pleases. With ths luxury that the money buys come all sort of temptations.
 Does she overcome them? Those who really know the modern gil will be able to guess.

 Lauds Work of Science
 Such condition is a strikil ' contrast to the conditions whi .h prevailed when the generation that now is passing was in it's youth. It is really a miracle of greater insignificance to the hu- man race than most of the events since prehistoric times"
 Dr. Kendall said that pandem;c disease, such as epidemic influen- ga, thus far has eluded the bess efforts of science.
 Dr. Anthony Carlson, Chairman of the Department of Physiology. University of Chicago, discussed the subject of what kind of a race is desired.
 Have we decided that we want a race on the model of an Fin stein, a Mussolini a Napoleon or a Jack Dempsey?" he asked.
 Dr. Carlson found little in the present human. strain, taking it in the large. to warrant perpetuation. He deplored the artificial prepara ton of food, the increasing use e. medicines, drugs and poison, which. he said, will affect ths germplasm and the future of she race.

 The story ne has handled deals with Petrograd and Vienna before the war. Helene. Countess Or. l0ff, is affianced to Ivan, Rus. sian nobleman, and they have an engagement to go to a masquerade ball together. Ivan. however, has mixed his dates, and he finds. i: more important to his happiness to keep an engagement for that evening with a notorious demi mondaine. As a result, Helene, who is wearing a peasant cos, tune, decides to go to the ball alone.
 Her peasant disguise and her distinguished beauty take the eye of six roystering young nobles, who force her to accompany them to a wayside inn. There, in a riotous orgy, they cast lots for her, and she is won by Grand Dukes son, named Alexander.
 She escapes at dawn and ai home c0nfesses her humiliation to her father and Ivan. They are furious and Ivan breaks his eu gagement. Helene swears rc- venge upon her betrayer, and the sensational story that develops is full of incident that ranges from the road to Siberia. to the gay cafes of Vienna, and back through the turmoil of postwar Russia.
