' ' Applied psychology hardly

means. As a case In point there's
"A Chapter in Her Life." the big
Cnl vernal production now playing
at the Arcade Theatre, and one of
the outstanding features In plc
Uiretlom today.
Chuu Louise Uurnham's cele

of tho play, und from it Lois Web
er has scenatiKCd and directed a
misterplece. On critic said It was
not u play at all that It was "a
slice of life transferred to the
screen."
"A Chapter In Her Life" Is a
lesson In happiness. Jt IcIIh the
story or a simple child, placed In
a home torn by family discord.
How she not only overcomes an
environment of hate, but, through
her own steadfast faith in Ideals,
succeeds In turning tho hate to
love, Is told simply and human.
Whimsical humor lights It then
are more laughs than tears.
