The lilting love lyric, composed by Oscar Le- vant and Sidney Clare, plays an in- tegral part in the story. It is the song which ultimately brings suc- cess to a young composer and makes possible his future married happiness. “Someone” thus is in- troduced in a novel manner and forms a fitting background for the , entire story. Sally O'Neil sings for the first ‘time on the screen in “Jazz Hea- ven,” while John Mack Brown, cast as the young composer, both plays and sings. The supporting cast includes notable stars of stage and screen, including Joseph Cawthorn, .Clyde Cook, Albert Conti, Blanche (Friderici and J. Barney Sherry. wCawthorn, one of the oldest stars of the musical comedy stage, is seen in another delightful comedy role ssimilar to his part in “Street Girl,” "the picture which brought.Cawthorn to the fore as an outstanding film I comedian. § Melville Brown directed “Jazz {Heaven.” The picture brings to wthe talking screen for the first time %a reproduction of a large broad- i.‘;;flsung station. ‘The locale has bheen screened with authenticity, “giving a real picturization of the FRESH as butter from the churn .

Bill's wife encouraged his flights {of fancy, in proportion to the fault- finding of Jane, who compared him always with her loud-mouthed and showy husband, Ed Matson, a bank employee. The tide turned when not only Ed Mason, but the big |banker of the town were impli- {cated in the stealing of several (thousand dollars from the bank.

He wrote boois about it, he crossed oceans to lec- ture about it, and he gave the Iworl.fl a superb assurance of his sincere faith in it by announcing that he and Lady Doyle were fully convinced that they had communi- jcnted with their dead son.

Sir ‘Arthur insisted that he had not only spoken 'to his son, but that the son had replied, and that the father's ears had heard the voice. Of Artistic Family Coming from a family of famous Jartists, Arthur Conan Doyle was born at Edinburgh, May 22, 1859, He was the son of -Charles ‘Doyle, & grandson of John Doyle, bést known as “H.“B.” and & nephew of Punch’s celebrated Richard Doyle. ~All three were well. known artists and caricaturists. When his studies at Stomyhurst College and Edinburgh University came to an end, Arthur, as was the fashion of the time, went to ‘Germany to continue/ his book: learning. Re- eeiving his degree in ‘medisine he returned 'home and set WP prac- tice at Southsea. During his eight years in his first chosen profession —1882 to 1890—he wrote fiction in his considerable spare time, and success came to him so abundantly, Reed Furniture, (A beantiful light tan reed guaranteed to give years of service.
