Talmadge Sisters Begin Brightest Y ear of Careers Pauline Frederick, greatest dramatic actress on the screen, scores another resounding hit in her most recent picture, The Lure of Jade, booked for exhibition at the Strand on Wednesday and Thursday. Frederick has a role in which she revels, in which she does quite the finest work of her recent career. She appears as the daughter of a rear admiral in the navy. She lives at ,a naval base in the Pacific cast. Theife is happiness until scandal breaks and she becomes the unwitting victim. The shock results in the death of her father and she flees to the South Seas, a virtuel outcast from society. Subsequent action action takes place on an island in the South Seas and in these scenes occur some of the biggest drama the screen has produced in many a day. Miss Frederick is brilliantly supported by a cast n including such players as Hardee Kirkland, Thomas Holding, Arthur Rankin, Leon Barry, Clarissa Selwynne, L. C. Shumway and Togo Yamomato.

Norma said she wanted to embjtional play strong, dramatic, roles which have in them something more than just the opportunity to act, and which besides being true character portrayals, would at the same time be helpful.

Officials of London have decreed that children under 16 shall not see certain motion pictures unless accompanied by parents or guardians. There are two classes of films that are passed by the British board of film censors. One class is passed for universal exhibition and another for adult exhibition only. A prize of $100,000 has been offered by Lord Atholstan, of Montreal. for the discovery of a cure for cancer within five years.

I dont mean to make propaganda pictures or to track an obvious moral on everything I do, but I believe the moral can be brought out subtly and be so cleverly interwoven in the story that it becomes fhe very soul of the character and play.

The principal lead in the picture is played by Lewis Sargent, who, after his enviable success in the title role in the picture Huckleberry Finn, is a real drawing card all by himself. But there are others as noted. Lila Lee needs no introduction to film patrons; William Collier, Jr.! the son of the noted New York stage star, went to Los Angeles especially to play a juvenile role. Other notables are Clyde Fillmore, Ernest Claude Peyton. Sylvia Ashton. etc. Judge Beii Lindsey, famous judge of the juvenile delinquency court, and his wife, Mrs. Ben Lindsey, also appear in certain scenes of the picture. The picture is filled with comedy situations and has a strong dramatic theme concerning the boy who grows up a foundling and finally takes to the city streets, preferring them to the cheerless institution. The picture shows his subsequent acts and character development and proves that under the right environment every boy .will show a lot of good qualities. It is a production that will appeal to young and old alike. The direction is by William D.
