Or can one soul inhabit two bodies? And if the latter holds true, what happens to one soul when the other dies? Deep stuff! “Dusk to Dawn,” Florence Vidor's latest picture, puts forth the idea that the subconscious self may have a soul separate and apart from that of the conscious soul. The subcon- scious soul belongs to an Indian beg- gar maid. It takes possession of the body as soon as the conscious self goes to sleep. Thus the herojne will not marry the hero until her dream soul dies. She may give her con- ecious soul to him, but the subcon- sclous soul belongs to a handsome rajah to whom she has given her- gelf in a dream marriage from down the road behind me Straightening up, 1 saw around a curve a big open car filled | with men patently intoxicated, ana | the car iteelf lurching from side to| side as if it, too, had been indulging | in contrabond lquor. | ARTHUR SCOTT BAILEY, A Y Hls=e| JIMMY RABRIT HAS TION.

And Farmer Green knew nothing about his new tenants. Now and then Jimmy Rabbit used to meet Henry Skunk in the garden It was still early in the fall, and the root crops had not yet been gathered and stored in the vegetable cellar “You must come to see my house,” said Henry Skunk early one morn- ing, before Farmer Green's was up.

This talent was best exemplified in “The Jack Knife Man,” one of the reen's masterpieces. Vidor had two separate stories to in “Dusk to Dawn.” That was complication enough, yet he en- deavored to include in the action a lot of melodramatic stuff to give the film “punch.” a result the inter weaving of the two stories is rather With Subconscious Iden Florence Vidor, an expert horsewoman, has a thrilling ride in “Dusk to tity latest movie. | difficult to follow.
