Not only does h> wear one of the most elaborate dis- puises he ever devised—and he enacts a character so foreign to him—even to his race—so per- fectly that he fairly seems to lve it—but this is an incidental 1o one of the most powerful situ- tions ever conceived in the en- tire realm of the drama. “Mr. Wu” is a play be forgotten.

Pidgeon plays Monite Carrol, a young American financigr, also a strong contrast to his Paul Lu zon, sell-sacrificing perfumer in “Marriage License.” This pair gives the screen one of the most sensational dramas of recent years. Heleno meets and loves the young American, but her master sends her to ob- tain papers that threaten his ex- istence. She gets them and the)y prove to belong to Carrol. He denounces her.

Glyn's pictures, author and motion picture creg tor, who personally supervised “Love’s Blindness,” the Metro’ Geldwyn-Mayer picture from her own novel, coming to the Palace two days, Sunday and Monday, opening at the Sunday matinee; pictures with incongruities just as glaring and purporting to repre- sent English life have been made in America and exhibited in Eng- land and_ are responsible in no small measure for part of the present agitalion in Great Britain against American films. Yet, Mmme. Glyn's pictures, like “His Hour,” have been ex- hibited in England without a hint of unfavorable comment in this regard. “‘Love’s Blindness’,” said Mme. Glyn, “is an absolutely faithful depiction of English life, down to the last detail of dress and de- portment of actors, construction of buildings, and other matters. The characters represent actual personages in English soclety, even to resembling them.” Pauline Starke and Antonio Moreno have the leading roles in the picture, while the cast. in. cludes 'Lilyan Tashman, Sam De Grasse, Douglas Gilmore, Kate Price, Ned Sparks and others.

Follow- ing his short address he presented the diplomas. On the stage were Mr. Robert- son, Judge Bunnell, Supt. Keller, Dean C. E. Rice, who delivered the invocation, and the class.
