DO WELL. A FRIEND IN NEED A friend in need is a friend in deed, and how you can tell is to accommodate him in time of his need, and then a little later ask him for it back in return.

Cohan, the popular actar-author-prod'ueer of both theatrical and film worlds, will appear in his second photoplay ior Artcraft Pictures, "Seven Keys to Baldpato." One of Mr. Cohan's great est Broadway sensations, this play adapted from the book of the same name by Earl ,Derr Biggers, scored an emphatic hit all over the country several years ago. As a motion plc ture vehicle for the Inimitable come dian, It offers an admirable subject in whlcih to present to good advantage his famous mannerisms and at the same time, discloses particular adapt abilities to motion picture presenta tion. Announced as a "mystery farce," this picture Is confidently expected to amaze and thrill to a much great er extent than even the original play. Several distinct twists to the story, which tells of how an ambitious author of hair-raising literature won a wager to write a 10,000 word story in twenty-four hours, are evinced with startling result. Many humor ous situations are presented in typ ical Cohanesque style and a surpris ing climax, such as has never before been presented on the screen is sud denly displayed with telling effect. Staged under the direction of Hugh Ford, whose many successes under the Famous Players trade mark have placed him among the very foremost exponents of modern filmcraft ,the story is given a much greater scope on the screen than was possible on the stage. An exceptional supporting cast to the popular Broad way star consists of various well known film artists, as well as several members of the original cast of the play, including Anna Q. Nilsson. Mrs. De Wolf Hopper, popularly known as Elda Furry, Joseph Smiley, Russell Bassett, Corene Uzzell. . G. Warren Cook, Carlton Macy, Eric Hudson, Paul Everton, Frank Losee and Purnell iPratt. That the success of Mr. Cohan's second) photoplay will' greatly increase his following among film patrons already established as a result of "Broadway Jones," is as sured. Entirely different from his first motion picture which met with such great puollc favor, "Seven Keys to Baldpate" will disclose to the cine ma world a character which, al though typical of his one and only type, is at the same time a revela tion in Cohan accomplishments.
