It was a sim- ple thing to insert into the peace treaty (Part vui, Articles 227-230) a declaration of the allies’ right to try those accused of having committed “scts.in violation of the laws and customs of war,” and it was comparatively easy persuading Germany to recogaize this right, as that countfy did by her acceptance of the treaty: ioe Fifteen'months haw: gone sy since the armis- tice, and still those German \«r lords are untried.

Bice THE BISMARCK “ The next addition to the list of not-, ablé characterizations of Mary Pick- ford, which in recent mopths have made more secure than ever her fame ag the greatest of all screen stars, will be Bret Harte’s western masterpiece, “M’liss,” which was adapted by Fran- ces Marion and produced under the direction of Marshall Neilan. : af In the title part, “America’s: Sweet- eart,” is the untutored, unkempt child of the hills, caring for ker dis- sipated father, and gradually succumb- ing to the refining influence of ‘the new school teacher,. but the trend of the story js far from being passive. “Bummer” Smith is heir to a large estate for the possession of which Jim Peterson is conspiring. He has Smith murdered by a Mexican bad man, and Charles Gray, the school teacher, is arrested as the. assassin. M’lisy assists in Gray’s escape, the, subsequent. es- tablishment of his irmo@ence, and the love existing between them is thereby cemented. t ae The play is filled with strong dra- matic action and the- heart appeal is irresistable, Supported by an ‘excel- lent cast of, players, Miss Pickford’s characterization in “M’liss” wilf doubt- less rank one of the best she has essayed .since “Tess of the Storm Country.” “M’liss” will be seen at)the Bismarck theatre tonight and tomor- row, and an exceptionally ‘fine pro- duction is assured. ; PEOPLE'S FORUM THE I ov.
