Comedy Pathos,
OF Real Life In
Battle of Sexes

There are few pictures being
made now that can evoke a large
audience into a silence or tears and
the very next moment make them
lsugh-a loud uproarious guffaw Of
spontaneous merriment-yet ID. W.
Griffith's "The Battle Of the Sexes
shown AZ the Capitol theater last
night did that very thing.
The joys OF the average home:
its disappointments; its humor and
small tragedies have been ably
caught by Griffith who shows an in
nate sense Of the romanticism lying
behind Americas greatest institution
the home.
II seems safe 70 say that no better
example Of comedy through pathos
has been seen in years. The picture
IS 30 thoroughly human that a SYM
pathetic flow OF interest is aroused
in the actions Of all Of its players.
The story is built upon the theme
Of a modern gold-diggcr who wrecks
a mans home and steals the nan
I osatisfy her own lust for gold. In
the end she loses the man but is
victorious IN that she has accom-
plished her purpose money. Thru
out the story there is a strong upper
current of pathos as the mans wife
and two children struggle to regain
their home-the old battle Of the
sexes.
Jean Hcrskolt. as the erring faith
er. portrsys what is easily one Of
the finest character roles OF his
great career. Phyllis Haver as the
gold-digger. Marie. plays an unsym-
pathetic role and Is the direct cause
Of much OF the comedy. Belle Ben
nett gives q sympathetic perfor-
nance as the mother. who becomes
half-crazcd. Sally O'Neill u natural
as an unsophisticated home-girl who
is instrumental in bringing her es-
tranged parents back 70 the domestic
fold and Don Aiyarado as Jimmy
plays the role Of a male gold digger.
The rest Of the cast includes William
Blackwell and John Batten.

ing the World war she took an &C.

industry, and with the speed of meteor, sweeps
to foremost position in popularity and sales, it
mus possess extraordinary quality and ability.
Certainly no other motor car has come SO swiftly,
% impreSSively. to the front IN such remarkably
short time as ChrySler has come.
When the first Chrysler car was placed on exhi-
bition FIVE years ago, the whole industry looked
m an1zzement at what Walter P. Chrysler had
accomplished. Within four years, Chrysler had
lezped to third place in the industry.
How has Chrysler done 1t? What is the secret of
this SUGGEST Simply that Chrysler gave in the
