1.-THE Dawn PATROL
One of Seasons Best Films.

Tine Dawn Patr0P
One of Seasons Best Films.
THE Earle Theater last week drew
crowds Of those who appreciate
fine pictures, so that it is not to be
wondered that THE Dawn Patrol"
Richard Barthelmess' latest starring
picture, an epic of the air covering
the period of the World War, should
be continued through the current
week. The picture is entitled to its
patronage, and 1t is confidently be-
lieved that few, II any, who see 1t
will be disappointed.
1t presents the star in a new
characterization, and while it sug-
gests memories of THE Big Parade"
and especially of Journeys End"
nevertheless it has intrinsic merits
Of its own that entitle it to high
praise.
The story is woven around a
logged, patriotic force of young
British aviators, patient witnesses to
the carnage of battle and the ap-
parent hopelessness of 1t all, but
still ready and willing to do their
bit. Barthelmess, who has replaced
the commander, is compelled to send
aloft the brother of a dear friend,
in spite of himself. The young man
Is killed and his gallant commander,
who sent him to his death is quick
and effective in avenging him.
The picture shows some daring
and extraordinary feats of the war
planes at their work. The inevitable
crashes are most realistic, and, as
In Journeys End" there is a sad
ending. 1t is an artistic close to the
picture that commands commenda-
ton for that If for no other reasons.
A news reel and short comedy
OF the "Looney Tune" type, as sup
Elementary contributions, serve to
tighten the sadness of the feature.

DANVILLE, Va, Nov. 26.-Riot-
ing among striking millworkers
here today resulted in calling out
State troops.
Governor Pollard ordered four
companies here to maintain order,
after a night of rioting in which
stones were hurled, one man
slugged, and an unoccupied house
burned.
Authorities were powerless to
handle the situation, and it was
only a cold downpour of rain that
sent the rioters to. their homes.
The trouble started yesterday
when hundreds of strikers gath
cred at the gates of the mills
and jeered the non-union workers
as they reported. Police made
no effort to interfere despite the
anti-picketing injunction. +
Non-union workers announced
that there were 1000 back at
work, while union leaders declared
that less than 900 have returned
to the mills.
