Cohan Theatre, must take one of the highest places. Produced with unusual |, attention to detail and at the same time with a lack of the clap-trap that is such a temptation to the movie- maker, the picture made from the story by Frank L. Packard’ is much More convincing than was Mr, Cohan’s Dlay of @ few years back, taken from the same source. Briefly, the story Weals with the de. termination of a New York gang of crooks to capitalize the cures of a small town faith healer, and the reformation that is worked when its members fall under hia influenée, Béth the underworld scenes and those at the shrine of the patriarch are pre- sented in a highly effective manner, Thomas Meighan heads the cast a» Tom Burke, the leader of the crook . |band, and he has never before done satisfactory @ plece of acting. Lou Coaney, as the “Frog,” and J. M. Du- mont, as the “Dope,” completé the masculine part of the gang, But then there is Betty Compson, who makes a fourth, In the role of “Rose.” Miss Compson makes the most of a part by no means simple, Joseph J, Dowling, asthe patriarch, Jooks and acts the character, George Leane Tucker adapted the story for the screen and Joseph Plun- | region, The first th Kett arranged the prologue and epl- | by" tne Ametcag ate oRue.
