GOI N G STRAIGHT." Triangle-Fine Arts Offering Is Finely Produced and Acted. Reviewed by Thomas C Kennedy in Motography. Norma Talmadge, whose restrained yet colorful acting we always enjoy, and a supporting cast which includes Ralph Lewis and Eugene Pallctte, do a great deal toward nuking "Going Straight" a picture that will please. Others responsible for the appeal this offering is capable of are C. M. and S. A. Franklin, who produced a story telling of the man and his wife who are hard put in the endeavor to live down the lurid past, in a manner to bring to the fore all the interest-compelling possibilities contained in this melodrama. It will be shown at the Arcade Sunday. Miss Talmadge is again the young mother, and once moro she is appeal ing in the role. Ralph Lewis makes Remington as convincing as possible under the circumstances, and Eugene Pallette is a vicious, drink-soaked vil lain. These three players deserve praise for their portrayal of charac ters with which the story presents them. Kate Toncray and the Fine Arts children complete the cast. In the opening scene John Reming ton and his wife are discovered in their comfortable home. While glanc ing through a book, Remington comes across a newspaper clipping giving details of the trial of a notorious band of crooks. Both Remington and his wife then review the past. He was the leader of the band and Grace wrs one of his assistants. Remington was arrested and sent to prison for three years, but Grace escaped. After serv ing his term, he resolved to go straight, mostly because of the child born to Graco during his stay in prison. Remington is now fairly prosperous and he lives in the respect of his as sociates and neighbors. One of the band, who is still a crook, discovers this and he at once starts to black mail the former leader. Then he in sists that Remington return to the old life for Just one job, threatening the while to give evidence which will send Grace to prisoir, Remington hesitates long, but finally decides to do the job. On the night of the proposed robbery Grace takes the children to visit a friend, and, of course, the friend's house is the very one chosen by Briggs to be robbed. Briggs is de feated in his scheme by Remington, yet ho does not squeal. Instead, he attempts to shoot the reformed crook. The result is that Briggs is killed and the Remingtons are safe, unless some other member of the band turns up. I ho settings used in the production of this story are splendid. The fight in the crook s den and the chase through alleys, across back yards and over .roof tops is done well enough to be interesting, which is a compliment to the Franklins, who, with some abla assistance from the players, have made "Going Straight" a melodrama that at no stuge of its development fails to hold the spectator interested. WINSOME PHOTO PLAY ACTRESS IN NEW PLAY AT SHERRY'S. Fruit Men To Meet. Walla Walla, Wash., Nov.ll. (Special.) Governor Lister of Wash ington has issued a call to the leading fruit shippers, fruit growers market ing organizations and commercial or ganizations in the State of Washington for the appointment of representatives t meet with the newly appointed Ad visory Board in Spokane, November 23rd and 24th. As this is to be the first meeting of this Board it was deemed advisable to hold the meeting at the time of the National Apple Show and start the work outlined with the aid of all those prominent in the fruit industry. This Committee was the result of a conference of Governors at North Yak ima last fall. It consists of nine mem bers, three being appointed by the Governor of each state, Oregon, Wash ington and Idaho. The purpose of this Board is to study the fruit marketing situation in the three states and to determine ways and means in which the govern ments of the three states can be help f ul to the fruit industry. Paul H. Weyrauch President of The Fruit Growers Agency, is chairman of the Washington Committee, and according to the Governor's call will be in direct charge of the arrange ments for tliC Spokane meetinR. deed it is becoming quite the usual thing for prices to end in pennies. Perhaps it is not unreasonable to pre dict that the man who shines shoes will soon charge eleven cents;..and hair cuts may go to twenty-seven cents a scalp1. In view of the frequent strikes even the subway and elevated railroads might consider raising their fares from a nickel to six cents. Queen Lil Is Dying. San Francisco, Nov. 9. Liluukolani, former queen of Hawaii, is very ill at Honolulu and may pass away at any time, accordig to information received here. w t jfcV a: ?& Mi M o lr i' i VIOLA DANA starrfd tn "THE LIGHT OF HAPPINESS "'' Viola Dana, the fascinating and J' gifted young stage and screen star .will be seen here in "The Light of Happiness," a five-part Metro wonder "play at Sherry's theatre on Sunday ,',iind Monday. This charming young ,,artIst is surrounded by an exceptional .ily strong supporting cast, which in cludes Edward Earle, Lorraine Frost, .luck Busby, George Melville, Mona Klngsley, Harry Linson, Robert "Walker and other well-known artists. '""'The Light of Happiness" was writ "tcn especially for Miss Dana by John "H. Collins, who also directed its pro- duvlion. There is a flavor of the de lightful writings of Sir James M. Bar i io in the characterization Mr. Collins has drawn in the part of "Tanglctop," tho rolo essayed by Miss Dana. Left an orphan, the daughter of a drunken father, she is shunned by the commun ity. A young minister who comes tj the town and who understands the great and true principles of humanity: takes her under his wing. The town gossips revel in this action on his part and plan his ruin with their vicious attacks. There ore many in teresting complications in the story and it is unfolded in a masterly an artistic manner on the screen. Running Short of Pennies. New York, Nov. 11 (Special.) Even' though tho number of the rich who are growing richer has been ra pidly increasing during the era of prosperity, yet everybody must have pennies. While there may bo bales of greenbacks, and currency, and wagon loads of gold still the money market is never evenly balanced when pennies run shy. Civilization depends upon copper, since otherwise the boy who sells papers would lose a large part of his patronuge, and the gum machine, would fail in performing its proper function in case the copper cent failed to lurk within the pockets of subway passengers. The shortage of pennies might have been expected, as there is always something running shy in New York. One week it is milk, and then hens refuse to lay in proper quantities. Now the Treasury Department has gotten behind, with the result that Wall Street, and other streets, haven't pennies enough to make change. The Philadelphia and San Francisco mints had to steam up and run twenty-four hours a duy, and the Denver mint is operating on a basis of sixteen hoars a day. The use of copper coins has increased at nn enormous rate, per- h:i!)K because there is nn extra penny , added on bread, (he same thing has, happened with tliv price of mill;.
