"A play of particular interest to
women" is a description given to "The
Weaker Sex" in which three Triangle
stars Dorothy Dalton, Charles Ray
and Louise Glaum are presented in
the leading roles.
It will be presented at the Arcade
theater Sunday.
Miss Dalton has the part of a suc
cessful woman lawyer who, when she
wins a verdict of acquittal for a girl
charged with murder, wins also the
admiration of the prosecuting attor
ney and later becomes his wife.
After marriage the wife wants to
help her husband in his work, but he
insists her place is m the homo, tint
when her stepson (Charles Kay) is in
peril ot his lile, charged witn tne
murder of an evil woman (Louise
'Glaum), she proves that her trained
mind has a very definite value. The
boy is acquitted through her handling
ot tne evidence, ana tncrcniter snc nns
her coveted place at her husband's
side.
All three of the principals are said
to be ideally cast for the roles allotted
them, nnd Chares K. French as the
"husband, heads a strong supporting
company. 1
uation is an unusually powerful one,
and only an actress of Miss Barry
more's ability could successfully por
tray it on the screen.
Supporting the star are such actors
of note as Robert Cummings, Robert
Whittier Hattie Dclaro and little
Maurv Steuart. Mr. Cummings ap-

Who Makes Terms Of Peace?
Does the victor or the vanquished
usually propose peace during a war?
Take Americas wars and you will
find that the loser was the one to
suggest an end of the fighting.
tnglanil and not the United Mates
was the power to request peace in
the Revolution, and America wns the
winner.
Mexico and not the United States
was the first to talk peace in that
clash 70 years ago, and again Ameri
ca was the winner.
The Confederacy, whose cause was
lust, made peace proposals during the
Civil War long before Lee surrender
ed. Napoleon tried in vain to make
peace with Russia when he was at
Moscow one hundred and four years
ago, but Czar Alexander, then ap
parently the under dog, refused, and
Napoleon's retreat followed, with the
', nrdhHation of his own army.
It was Napoleon who again sought
j.face before and after Leipsic, out
I the. Allied powers refused, deposed
him from his throne and sent him to
i Elba.
The French people cried for Pence
