It might t be called the annals of the poor. i an account of the struggies poverty stricken factory workers un- der the burden of industrial oppr sion. It abounds in thrills, among these being great food riots, a life and death struggle betwecen a girl and a man on the stairwa; of a mansion a highly dramatic murder trial, fight in the jury room, a night rac between an automokbile and an ex- press train that really is a wonderful achievement in photography, and a dramatic punch due to an unexpected confession, which is considered one of the most unique effects of the sort produced on the screen. “Cheating the Public” is a power- ful propazanda play with a lesson for all. Tt deals with the difference between capital and lahor. Tt shows how through the efforts of a factory girl an unjust capitalist is brought to and the path of the lab easy in this particular ¢ Bnid Markey in the featured role gives one of her best characteriza- tions in the role of the factory girl who brings about the change. Her scenes in prison, where terror-strick- en at the thought of her impending death in the clectric chair, she be- comes half crazed, are acted with tremendois realism. Mr. Stanton's direction is good In all the big situa- tions. The race hetween train and automoblle, interspersed with cut- backs of Mary’s preparation for death, is handled in fine form.

One must have the one in the first place, if one is to grow old gracefully. A beau- tiful old age does not develop out of a cheap and empty life. A Garment Gains Distinction From the Wearer. But, granted these original quali- fications, to my mind, a garment gains a certain distinction by being a little shabby. It falls into the lines of the wearer.
