abraham Lincoln" at National
Enters Upon Second Week.

CHARACTER acting such as is
seldom seen on stage or screen
marks D. w. Grifith's Abraham
Lincoln" now playing for its second
week at the National Theater.
Walter Huston portrays Lincoln
after the manner of past master.
He inpresses upon his audience the
fact that Lincoln was human
being, a man who knew how to tell
a good story, how to love and how
to laugh, as well as how to be seri-
ous-minded in guiding the destiny OF
a nation.
1t is the finesse of Huston in put
ting across the thought that Lincoln
was. after all, regular fellow in
stead of a clustered oracle that
makes the picture an outstanding
success. Many actors have played
the role of Lincoln. Some were good,
some bad and others indifferent.
Huston deserves to be rated among
the good. -
Depicting as it does the rise OF
Lincoln from a backwoods log cabin
to the White House, the picture, as
does most of the Griffith produc-
tions, leaves something to the 1magl-
nation. 1t avoids being stilted be-
cause of unnecessary details. Inc
