SWANSON In
INDISCREET
Risks Happiness To Save
Sister From Heartbreak,
Entertaining

Is Il worth while to risk ones
own romance TO Illustrate a dis
carded lovers attempt to win a
younger sister?
Gloria Swanson in "Indiscreet",
which opens today at the Capitol
theatre. finds a way TO overcome
that situation with a highly colorful
dramatic performance providing
good entertainment with a decided
emphasis. The film brings to mind
the stars earlier success. The
Trespasser," having a central char
acter who risks her W happiness
TO saw another from heartbreak.
1t all comes about because Of a
former admirer Of shallow affec-
tons. who gets himself engaged TO
the girls younger sister.
The story was written especially
for the star by DE sylvia. Brown
and Henderson. famous picture pro-
ducers and composers. who with this
production make their bow in the
dramatic field. The two numbers
written by them especially for Miss
Swanson-"Come To Me" and IF
You Haven't Got Love"-permit the
star to demonstrate once again hat
she has one of the most engaging
voices in pictures. A splendid sup
porting cast appears with Miss
Swanson. II comprises handsome,
debonair Ben Lyon, who turns in a
fine performance opposite Miss
Swanson: Monroe Owsley as the
menace: Barbara Kent and Ar
thur Lake to whose lot falls the
comedy-making, and Maude FL
burne, Nella walker and Henry Kol-
ker.
Leo McCarey directed the star
in her current offering. "Indiscreet"
Is fine entertainment and decidedly
well worth seeing.

TASTE-TEST PROVES SUPERIORITY OF
 ROASTING METHOD
Hills Bros. Coffee, Roasted Differently, Has Flavor No
 Other Coffee Has

To drink Hills Bros. Coffee. after you have been drinking other brands, is certainly revelation. Ii has a marvelously rich, satisfying flavor that no other coffee has.
 This delicious difference is due to the way Hills Bros. Coffee is roasted. Instead of roasting in bulk, as others do, Hills Bros. use a process they invented and pat ented. It's called Controlled d Roasting.
 As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow :. a little at time :. so the delightful, unvarying flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by this patented process that roasts evenly, continuously .. C little at time. Temperature and flow of coffee through the roasters are al- ways under control. (Hence the name Controlled Roasting.") A uniform roast, such as no bulk method equals, is absolutely as- sured. A perfect, unvarying flavor results in every pound.
 This delicious coffee comes to you in vacuum cans. Air, wbsch makes coffee go stale, is removed and kept out of these cans. Ordinary, fair tight" cans won't keep coffee fresh. But Hills Bros. Coffee can't go stale! Order some today. Ask for it by name, and look for the Arab trade mark on the can.

 Ann, with outstretched arms cried, Pierre! Pierre! Don't leave me! love you, Pierre, don't leave mel"
 As one impelled by some power stronger than his own will, Pierre stepped back into the room and held out his arms to her.
 Ann ran to him and, throwing her arms about his neck, clung to him, as if she could not let him go.
 Old Tony appeared in the arch way, but they were cbIivious to his presence.
 Regarding them with fond under standing, the old actor stood, glanc- ing watchfully back toward the door to the street as if he had purposely placed himself on guard so that they might have this mo- ment or love uninterrupted.
 Bruce's voice outside, called Come on, Pierre"
 An automobile horn sounded. Old Tony disappeared down the hall. Pierre released himself from Ann's embrace, and without looking back ran from the room.
 Running to the window, Ann, on her knees, watched the automobile out of sight. When the sound had died away she turned slowly from the window. wiping her eyes and sobbing. Going to the ironing board she put it away in the kit chen and began doing things about the stove as If to prepare supper

INTO ANOTHER WORLD

It was very quiet in the living room of the Carey home when An tonio Latour finished reading the play he had written for his be- loved Pierre. Ann's ironing was forgctten and Ann, seated by the window. was crying Old Tony, himself deeply moved, thoughtful ly closed his precious manuscript and, clasking it to his breast, looked at Ann. A sad, understand ing smile crept like a beautiful glow over the old actors face.
 There, there, Ann" he said, how foolish we are. It is only a play"
 It seemed to me, when you were reading it, that it was all true"
 Ut is true,' returned Old Tony with pleased smile. Because the real tragedies of our lives may never be acted before an audience, are they less real. Ann?"
 NO, Father Tony
 Because a great soul sacrifices itself in secret, is that sacrifice less real because the world does not witness it?'
 No
 Because a great love must ever remain unknown even by those who live most intimately with the lov- CTS. is that love less real?"
 NO, no, Father Tony?"
 Some things that actually hap pen are not true, Ann. and some things that never happen are true"
 Old Tony chuckled Tt will be called rank melodrama, I suppose" :" "Is it?"
 aThat all depends upon the &C., tors. There is nothing more melo- dramatic than this play which we call life when played by melo- dramatic actors
 The sound of an automobile in front of the house came through the window. Ann looked out.
 Tt is Pierre" she cried joy ously.
 The old actor and the girl listen- ed with smiling faces as Pierre shouted from the door Thanks for the ride, fellows. Good-by Look me up when you come to New York-you know, The Ameri- can Academy of Dramatic Art"
 "Good-by, nothingl" came an- other voice. We're coming back to take you to your train"
 Good boysl" shouted Pierre. So long!" The automobile moved on. With a shout, Hello, folks!@ Pierre bounded into the living room. His arms were piled with bundles; his face beamed with joyous eager excitement. Still holding his bundled, he danced over to Ann.
 Flows my sweet Lady Ann?9 He pretended he was about to kiss her and with a laugh at her em- barrassment whirled on to Tony
 Thought I'd find you here, Father Tony. How's the old boy?
 "Gee!" he shouted. I've got to rush-train leaves at 5:53. Been telling everybody good-by. Bruce home yet? Where's Martin? Ex- euse me, folks, I've got to finish packing" He rushed up stairs.
 Ann ran into the hall and look ed up wistfully.
 Gan I help you, Pierre?" and she could not hide the eager long, ing in her voice.
