I used to make use o t often but its efficiency no longe impresses me. I am sorry to say that of the numerous times I have granted paroles in many years on the bench 1 cannot recall five instances where thu privilege was ever appreciated and used rightly." Sentence was preceded by argu ments on motions for a new trial and for an arrested judgment between At torney U Ren and Earl F. Bernard, deputy district attorney. Both were denied. U'Ren argued in the second motion that the criminal syndicalism law was an attempt on the part of the state to provide punishment for construe tive treason, which he held to be only in me yuwci ui me national govern ment. In my Judgment this Is a con tsplracy statute and not a treason statute," said Judge Morrow. "It modeled after the federal conspiracy statute and is the only conspirac statute in the state. I am satisfied that it was not created to provide punishment for constructive treason." 1 t 3t v Srac J V Duntin Famum, In a pretty arene from the photoplay based Dantaa' atory of the twin brother.

It -is not a misstatement when we declare that it is one of the few costume plays which have proved worth while presenting. And the rea son may be found in its assortment of dramatic elements which embellish a vivid and vital story. It does not rely on Its atmosphere, rich as that factor is. nor upon the value of the author's name. One of the virile Farnums, Dustin to be exact, has been given the opportunity to Interpret the dual characterization, and he applies his vigorous personality and romantic fervor to the interpretation.

Those who have been accustomed to think of Irene Castle only, as a fa mous dancer and one of the best dressed women in America will dis cover that she is also a character and emotional actress if they see "The Amateur Wife."
