Judson. in mind, "The Unborn," the much talked I tne Moving Picture World.) i of sociological picture which created Qf the throe new Paramounts, I think "The Mtrcelhm Millions" comes first in interest because of the super ior characterization, especially in the personalities drawn by George Beban and Helen Jerome Eddy. These able players picture the wonderment, joys nd despairs of a poor Italian truck gardener and his wife, who suddenly inherit two millions. They become the easy . prey of two conscienceless schemers, played by Eugene Pallette and Adcle Farrington, who coolly take possession of the family and its money. Tho schemers become re spectively business adviser to the newly rich man and social mentor to his wife. They play on lesser human chords till the higher instincts in the Italians reassert themselves, and they begin to prefer the little farm cabin to the troubled palace. The end sees the devils swept out into dark ness. It is characterization rather than story that makes the picture. It be gins with a good situation, but for gets the story it opens with for the heartstruggles of two other charac ters, the Italian and his wife. Just a bit at the close returns it to its orig inal path and accounts for the lesser persons. Beban and Miss Eddy seem always true and interesting. One feels at times, rather than knows, that the methods of the schemers are not true to life. They seem a bit too brazen; for, after all, the Italians were neither fools nor children, and would hardly have been taken in in just this way. But it is entertaining all the way and the picture will make strong friends. It is an Oliver Mo rosca picturs and will be shown at the Arcade today and tomorrow. FOR.

The Toggery so much favorable comment in Seattle, Spokane and Tacoma where it has been showing to capacity audiences for the past month, comes to the Col onial theatre Saturday and Sunday, j Frankly, the production is a power ful and bold propogandn against bir'.h 'control and it reviews this delicate sub ijcct in an inoffensive manner. Carry j ing a pathetic story throughout Ue i feature. "The Unborn" depicts the dis astrous results entailed by those who I play with the proverbial fire. Action jund cold facts predominate the picture I which flays the unscrupulous physi jcian who would assist in the premed itated destruction of the unbon: The story carries a "punch" which should 'do much toward assisting in the fight for a social education for every child of mature mind. A clever company, handsr.nie inter ior and exterior settings together with a good theme, go to make "The Ln born" one of the best cf tho hettcr features now being offered the show- going public.
