“Adam's Kib'' (jauses
Trouble Then and Now
" 1 ■ -— " ■ .
It la said that the original “Adam's
Rib” caused a. lot of trouble In the
“Garden of Eden.” Well, whatever
trouble Eve may have caused Is more
than atoned for hy Mathilda Ram
say, another product of “Adam's
! Rib,” In the new Cedi B. De Mllle
; production by that name at the
| Strand, which features Milton Sills,
! Elliott Dexter, Theodora Kosloff, An
na Q. Nilsson, I’auline Garon and Ju
lia Faye.
TTio story deals with the domestic
; troubles of Michael Ramsay, a
‘wealthy Chicago broker (Milton Sills
and his spouse (Anna Q. Nilsson )
! Theodore Kosloff as M. Jaromir, ex
iled king of Morania, a small Euro
pean state, plays the part of the de
signing suitor for the hand of Mrs.
Ramsay.ler husband is aware of
, his intentions find disposes of him by
having Ills country recall him to the
throne. This Is not accomplished,
| however, without first reimbursing fl
nancially this little kingdom which,
1 in that respect, was in dire straits.
"Adam's Rib” is not a story of the
Garden of Eden, although Mr. De
Mllle does include a few cave man
scenes as a "vision,” hut one of every
day life and a humorous one at that.
The production Is massive and the
supporting cast is of the highest Do
Mllle standard.
Jazz Keeps Kingdom
Happy and Contented
■'Jazzmania” is the title of the lat
est of Mae Murray's and in It the
popular star has more opportunities
for histronic and costume display
than has yet fallen to her lot in the
pictures she lias made Miss Murray
will portray tlie power of “jazz" all
1 week at. the Hun.
Miss Murray's new picture is partTy
a costume play. Thevtar is seen ns

her country to rescue the women and
children who are being mistreated,
she decides to go back. Hhe rescues
the kingdom and turns It Into a re
public, where jazz keeps Madame
President and her subjects in good
humor.
Of course there is a love story in
volved—more than one, as a matter

/' ull W eek of Popular
Pictures at the Muse
"Quincy Adams Kawrer,” Interest
ing and dramatic bit of American life,
will head the list of features at the
Muon this week, followed Monday and
Tuesday by Irene Castle's latest emo
tional drama, “Slim Shoulders," in
which Miss Castle seizes the oppor
tunity to display a number of the
latest Ideas in gowns. Priscilla
Dean’s "Flame of Life" is scheduled
for Wednesday and Thursday and the
last two days of the week will he
given up to a second run in this city
of Booth Tarklngton’s "The Flirt.”
It All Happens I'rotn
Sunset Until Sunrise
If you met and married a million
dollars In five hours and then lost it,
what would you do?
Suppose also that you might have
been suspected of crime during t4fse
five hours, and been the target of a
gang of crooks?
Those are just a few of the things
that befell John D. Curtis on the first
night of ids return from five years
spent In China. Between the hours of
sunset and sunrise he found more real
romance and adventure than in ail
those live years of travel.
Romance and adventure is the ap
peal which is carried in "one Won
derful Night," with Herbert Rawlin
son at the World.
Iajuia Tracy, who wrote the stage
play of the same name, is noied as
one of the leading mystery story writ
era of the country.
Ktuart Baton directed the picture,
and the entire action of the play
takes place within the space of one
mllht. Into those few hours arc
crowded mystery, adventure and ro
mance.
Hupporting the star is a cast includ
ing Lillian Rich. Kidney Bracy, Dale
Fuller, Bpottiswiwide Altken and oih
ers.
Priscilla Doan Attains
Ambition in JSeiv Hole
Priscilla Dean, dynamic emotional
ist of the screen, has longed through
her whole career for such a role as
she plays In “The Flame of Dif»,'' at.
the Moon this week.
Her desire has been a role of real
emotional depth and yet without the
influence of beautiful sets, fine clothes
and the splendor of a golden ending.
In "The Flame of Life,” the heroine
is a girl of the mining country of
North England, a toiler by day and
a much-cursed, inhumanly treated
daughter by night. Khc is uneducated,
reading and writing is wholly foreign
to her; and the real “kick" for the '
critic s lies in the fact that the end
of the picture finds her the same' ^
l-ihe is merely shown at the climax on
the high road to better things.
Frar.' > s Hodgson Burnett. Eng
land's brilliant woman novelist, knew
the locale of the story by personal
contact.
Robert Ellis. Wallace Beery, Beat
rice Burnham, Kathryn McGuire emu
others support M.ss Dean, directed oy
Hobart Henley.
Hobart Henley spent several weeks
In rehearsing the players in their
parts in much the same manner that
a stage play is rehearsed. In this
way each player was familiar with
the entire story.
