DOROTHY MAC KAILL AND
 JOEL MCCREA STAR IN TALK ING SCREEN HIT KEPT HUS-
 BANDS" NOW AT THE STRAND

Being kept husband used to be a good business economically, but not so good socially.
 But things are different now and the young man who marries rich girl for both love and pecuniary gain helps even up the social bal ance and aids in the distribution of wealth.
 Kept Husbands" now showing at the Warner Bros Strand theater, with Dorothy Mackaill and Joe Me Crea in the featured roles, puts . new light on this business of marry ing wealthy mates.
 The film play concerns the prob lem of young gridiron hero who marries a rich girl for love only to learn that his wife's money bars him from full marital happiness.
 Prominent social economists among them Dr Hamilton Updyke noted California savant, contend that the wedding of the poor to the rich Is natures safety valve in dis tributing wealth.
 "There is no more sense," Dr Updyke says, in saying that a man is a kept husband just because his wife Is rich than there is in calling a woman kept wife just because the distribution of money is on the other side.
 Now that the stamp of approval is upon them. young men can marry rich girls and feel that they are abetting nature in maintaining the economic stability of the world"
 "Kept Husbands which was di- rected by Lloyd Bacon. also fea- lures the following noted players in it's cast, Clara Kimball Young, Bry- ant Washburn, Robert McWade, Florence Roberts, Mary Carr and Freeman Wood

BEBE DANIELS AND BEN LYON PLEASE AUDIENCES IN MY PAST' NOW AT THE STATE

Bebe Daniels is charming as the star of the Broadway talking screen sensation My Past at Warner Bros State theater to-day and tomorrow. Also featured are Miss Daniels late ly acquired husband, Ben Lyon, and the sterling favorite, Lewis Stone.
 The latter plays the part of a busi- ness man who for years has madly loved the famous actress whose pro- fession takes her away from him for much of the time. The play opens when she has returned and is be- ing entertained on the yacht of her middle-aged lover, when his young business partner, played by Lyon, ar- rives, and at once falls violently in love with her. The older man sees without malice the state of affairs. The wife of Lyon returns from abroad, finds him with the actress and sails back to get a divorce, glad of a chance to marry another man. Lyon discovers the sorrow which the loss of Doree would be to Stone, and himself goes abroad. The real story begins here, and ends in climax of moving and sensational beauty. Unusual and enthralling from first to last. My Past'' war rants your every effort to see it.
 It is not alone the beauty of the story and the fine direction which makes My Past" so memorable. It IS the true characterization of the people who potrray the parts. Lewis Stone always sincere in his acting. seems to hava new note of pathos in his role of John ThornIey, the middle-aged man who at lsat re- alizes that he must give np the wo- man whose love has been 90 much to-

 Case Against Him
Straightforward Recital in Connection With Alleged Theft of $45 Causes Judge to Await Return of De- tective, Figuring in Episode

day was evidently regarded as pure ly circumstantial and Judge T. V. Meyer ordered the postponement of the hearing until Saturday.
 The accused, Alex Raimo of North Main street, told very convincing story, which impressed court off, c!als. He was employed up to last Saturday evening by Samuel Sena of South Main street. He was working about the place carrying merchan- disc to various parts of the estab- lishment from the supply room in the rear. While he busted himself jii this manner. Mrs Sena deposited s165 in currency in safe and went into the back room. She claims to have heard a noise which resembled the closing of the safe door. Later in the evening MT Sena entered the door and informed Raimo that his services would not be needed after that night. He had previously planned to dispense with the boys service so his decision was not con- nected with the subsequent charge. The combination on the safe door was turned and the door securely locked when MT and Mrs Sena left the place that evening.
 It was not until Monday morning that MT Sena had occasion to go to the safe to count the money. He then discovered that the S165 had dwindled to $12O. Suspicion then fell on the former clerk and he was taken into custody on warrant ob- tained by MT Sena. Raimo' was To- cated yesterday afternoon and placed under arrest. He claims that he did not go near the safe. The roise that Mrs Sena recalls hearing he explained was caused by his toss ing some canned goods around on the shelves.
 Judge Meyer was evidently not co nvinced by to-day's evidence and decided to await the return of Lieu tenant Stevens, who is acquainted with other details of the boys ar- rest.
 John Statkus, 43, of 165 Dreher avenue was charged to-day with the violation of the wage act. An em- ploye claims that Statkus owes him back salary amounting to $241. He was arrested last evening on a war rant served by Patrolmen Edward nunn and John Culleton of the mo- tor patrol. As his attorney was un- able to appear in court to-day q con- t;nuance was granted until Satur- day morning.
 Yesterday was decidedly "wet day" climatically and alcoholically speaking. Seven of the "boys" were in to-day'5 lineup on the charge of intoxication.

 Ben Lyon as the youth who finds himself in the plight of appearing false to the older man who has been his best friend and business part ner, plays the part with manly sim cerity and understanding. There is a muted feeling about the play, faint ly melancholy overtones that seem to foreteil what Is to come.
 Bebe Daniels as the woman who comes between the two men and de- termines to conceal from the older man the love she feels for the youth---does the finest work of her brilliant career. My Past" is a play that will finger in the minds of those who see. 1t, like remembered music,
