In fact, make it certain you don’t go and let it out—when you've been thirst-quenching—by keeping away from Margaret. “Don’t be alone with her at all, @you anderstand?” continued Ral- sul. “Your mother will give you a home from home for a few nights— and if you should get a fever, or anything, Sara wil) look after you, Have a drink?

Whose slaughter, 1 wonder? Vittorelll and his toadies are very full of some big fdea or other. Do you get @ sort of idea that there’p something on, and we're being kept out of it?” “Yes, 1 do.

The picture, jwhich is showing at the Strand Theater tonight, gives an extieely| I new and novel slant on the per- sonal life of the big time crook,' with a wotnan as the brains and| dominating figure in the opera- tion of their questionable trade. Miss Blondell, who recently played in “Central Park,” “Big City Blues” and “Three on a Match,” now appears in “Blondie| Johrison” as the hardest bolted) feminine crimming] operative that ever ruled her hand with a re- lentless iron hand. It is some- thing of a new type of role for Joan, but one in which her strik- ing, peppery personality stands gut, in full force. Chester Morris, who made his first hit in pictures as a crook in “Alibi,” is an ideal running mate for the wise-cracking Joan. Mor- ris has had a_ brilliant picture career, with leading roles in such Pictures as “Red Headed Woman,” “The Miracle Man” and “No One. Man.” He was also a star on Broadway before becoming famous in pictures. Others in the east are all well. known on stage and sereen and include Allen Jenkins, Claire Dood, Earle Foxe, Mae Busch, Joe Cawthorne, Olin Howland, Sam Godfrey and Toshia Mori. The screen play, by Earl Bald- win, is relieved in its tense sit- uations by humor and snappy dialogue. The picture was di- rected by Ray Enright. avec A POET IN NEW YORK By GEORGE ALLAN ENGLAND Spirit of Poesy, ah, thou Muse divine, Inspire mine heart to sing a light- some lay, And (hang that junkman!} he go away?)
