Also, this department is of the opin ion that Mr. Rogers is such a good sport that he would have graciously accepted anything handed out in the way of criticism of Ills bill.The truth, the absolute truth isthat the combination bill is a Knockout. The picture is so thrilling and wholesome and makes everyone feel better for having attended. It almost deserves to share honors with the big feature, the Southern Trumpeters.What kind of a picture do youlike? Almost any red-blooded Ameri can should get a healthy, whole some kick out of, “Sporting Youth.” which features Reginald Denny, supported b Laura La Plante, and which singes the greatest auto race ever r rod need for motion pictures.

He is as wonderful in the pct * t e as he w as in the play which wa® one of the great iuccessos of modern tunes.Arliss is getting along in years but his acting is so polished that t hi * does not defre ‘ * ~i his perform¥ '*1.1-icow* ipaper the next day and get all the news of the day before.” j“How different from your plays,re n J led the critic.“IfGEORGE AltLISKance. Those who really know something about artistic acting will ap preciate Arliss; those who crave thrills will find an abundant kick inthe splendid melonramatie climaxes where Watkins is pitched from the high cliff; where the major is shot down as he sends out the call by wireless for help, dying like a gentleman, and in ih* finish when a squadron from the Rovai Air Forces arrives just in time to save the heroine and hero from being sacrificed on an altar of fire.Alice Joyce is charming and n6w she is filled out more she is evenI miss the prettier than ever.
