I know the director has had a
most difficult job to catch the real
meaning of the story. Have often
felt that even the author, Thorn
ton Wilder, didn't know himself
just what he meant all the time.

I sincerely doubt if the movie
version will have the vogue that the
story had. It's a big movie from
production standpoint, but I doubt
if the majority of any audience see
ing it will agree whether it is the
berries or just another picture. I
don't know myself.
So you see you will have to be
your own critic because my opinion
is very mixed up affair. Parts
are splendid and then other parts
simply do not sweep the story on

And that is a record.
When you see Clara Bow in DAN
gerouS Curves" you have proof that
she at present is limited as a talking
actress. She can look cute, pout
and be saucy, and when that is said
and done nothing more can be said
at present. To me she is better as a
silent player than as a talker. And
experience counts in these talking
days on the stage.
1t is also evident that Clara hasn't
so much to do as in some of her
other pictures. The director knows
that Clara will make the box Office
happy because she is in the cast, but
he has wisely let her do just what
she can do. She has strong compe-
tition because Richard Arlen walks
away with the picture.
The story is one of those intimate
glances behind the scenes of a cir
Gus and shows Clara trying to make
a tight wire walker stay sober
enough to do his act. When he does
get too much in him, Clara docs"
his stunt. Then he realizes what
sap he is. Says he will never drink
again. The story stops there with
everybody happy and nobody dis
putting his word.
Dangerous Curves" is just light
Clara Bow entertainment of diff
ferent type. It's not so much
whoopee as her other pictures.

FALSE ALARM RUNG;
 SUSPECT IS HELD
Employer Comes to Rescue Of
 Mute Held by Police

It must have been the wrong mute, for at the time his mute was riding about town on T truck loaded with wood according to the story told the police by A. w. Swanson. Osgood avenue, when Edward Cry guc, 56 Osgood avenue a mute, was accused of pulling q fire alarm box at the corner of Corbin avenue and Queen street at 4.01 o'clock ycster- day afternoon.
 Swanson appeared as attorney for the boy, whose father is Frank Cry guc, treasurer of the Polish Invest ment and Loan company and the Polish Loan and Industrial corpora tion, and explained the Circum- stances surrounding the case.
 When the alarm was pulled Ed ward was riding q load of wood on a truck, and he saw the fire trucks come to the Queen street box. When questioned as 10 pulling the box after Officer O'Day had arrived on the scene, Edward was vehement in his denial.
 The boy can neither read nor write Officer O'Day discovered when he tried to write a message to the lad, after Swanson conversed with him in the sign langua ye and h. had de- nied having touched the fire alarm box.
 Did you pull the alarm ?' the of ficer wrote on piece of paper. The rS q it?" Again the officer tried to make the boy understand, but again he could get no response.
 Was Too Far From Box
 At a few minutes after o'clock last night Swanson came to the sta tion house, where the lad had been taken, entirely convinced that it could not have been Edward who pulled the alarm, because from Os- good avenue and Golden Hill, where Swanson lives and where Edward . works, it is more than a mile to the Queen street box. Bremen also were convinced that it could not have been Edward, because Swanson was in constant sight of the lad eX- Cept for Jew minutes, m WAlCn time he could not have walked 10 the Queen street fire alarm box and have returned.
 "I know that Edward did not walk the distance because he does not like to walk" Swanson said last night. When he is through work at night. l tell him to walk home, but he shakes his head and demands to ride the distance"
 Employer Secures Release
 Asked to set a bond for the boy when he refused to let him go free. Lieutenant Rival demanded $100. Swanson turned out his purse and showed $35, which the lieutenant ac- cepted. And showing his pleasure by gesture and face, the boy left with his protector who has taken him under his wing. happy.
 The case was nolled in police court this morning by Judge Morris D. Sake on recommendation of Prosecuting Attorney Joseph G. Woods.
