In the Dark
June Caprice Gets Kiss
From Man and Spends
Rest of' Time Trying
to Match Its Flavor
CAMOUFLAGE KISS"
A 1 starring Tune Caprice, is
I the tale of a man who is an
who is minus the streak
that makes a man pleasing
in the company of women.
Tliie man ie hahfiil sn bashful in
ffarf that he deterred from kissinz a
girl to whom he becomes engaged
pimply because she says he cannot kiss
vher. Perhaps you know such a man.
' Perhaps in real life he is not so comic
" .but on the screen with all the frills of
Shyness, he just oozes comical sit
uations. J And this particular man makes a
false step. He gets a handsome man
I to kiss his bride-to-be in the dark,
t believing the girl will think he, the
if bridegroom-to-be, did it and will like
Ihim. Now it happens that the man
isngineers this so well that the iri
'does believe he kissed her and she is
rliffhted. How the thought 01 nis
'courage appeals to her. Then comes
fthe break. Ihe handsome man con
st inues to show his bravery by grasp
ling and kissing her again. The girl
f knows that kiss. She knows too that
1'ier bridcgroom-to-be was afraid to
Kiss her. Scorn, disgust, for him.
nd the man who kissed her wins her
I smiles and in the end her hand.
But that is not all. There arc other
Complications in this play. Another
''woman has fallen in love with this
' same brave kisser. He does not like
' ler but she persists in her attentions
despite the fact that she. has a hus
, band. "A Camouflage Kiss" is pre
sented at the Empress the first half
if this week.
One of the big scenes of ihe
Cross Bearer," to be presented at the
Sun theater Tuesday and Wednesday,
s an authentic reproduction of the
Louvain cathedral in which Cardinal
Mercier is celebrating mass when the
German forces rush in and take pos
session, ejecting' the congregation,
piling up the seats and setting fire to
them, and afterward niajdng a bar
racks of the edifice. This scene was
built alongside the World's studio in
Fort Lee. Upon an adjoining lot a
street scene several blocks in length
was constructed upon a scale suffi
ciently large to permit the passage of
artillery and great numbers of men
and women. On the night before this
meet scene was to have been shot
heavy windstorm arose and flat
tened the structure completely, be
sides carrying parts of it a long way
Mo the interior of New Jersey, so
jtat it became necessary to rebuild
.fie set entirely. Montagu Love plays
he role of Cardinal Mercier in "The
; Cross Bearer. There are no episodes
.of carnage in this picture, which, how
;vtr, contains a number of military
icenes, such, for instance, as the Ger
man soldiers entering Louvain and
taking formal possession of the city.,7; by aim R-

interiors were made following photo

and there was no sparing of expendi-

love story of 'fThe Cross Bearer" con

cardinal and an officer in, the Belgian
army. J ,
