HUMAN interest, comedy and ro
mance are blended skillfully to
gether to make , engrossing en
tertainment in the picturization of the
Charles Klein-Rose Stahl stage success,
"Maggie Pepper," which opened at the
Liberty theater yesterday.
Ethel Clayton, Elliott Dexter, Tully
Marshall, Raymond Hatton and Winni
Irert Greenwood form a stellar com
bination of player3 who handle the
leading roles in "Maggie Pepper."
There have been few plays in recent
years in which the element of heart
interest has been so compelling as in
this romance of a department-store
employe. Maggie Pepper, head of the
silk department, for 15 years has had
nothing but the commonplace of busi
ness in her thoughts until suddenly she
becomes obsessed with the desire to
enter society.
The social venture is a complete suc
cess and wins the admiration of the
man who turns out to be the head of
tne firm, recently returned from a long
eojourn in Europe. He makes Maggie
manager of the business, but the scan
dal specter stalks about, and, to save
the situation, she resigns. Through
many trying situations Maggie's love
remains steadfast and ultimately tri
umphs'. "One Every Minute," another humor
ous Montgomery Flagg satire on the
"movies," and Paramount round out an
excellent bill.
Gloria Makes Good.,
Gloria wnson. who once upon a !

Mille production, "Don't Change Your
Jlusband," that she is firmly fixed as a
S-creen. luminary.
Gloria is the daughter of Captain
Joseph! T. Swanson, now in France with
the American army. He is part Swedish
find part Italian, while Gloria's mother
was of French and Polish extraction.

and advertised it for sale, we well knew that the' public would buy the cream of the stock and the
balance would be left. But we arranged so that nothing would be left of the Crescent stock. So all
the best and highest-priced garments were sent upstairs to our mezzanine floor to be unpacked as
soon, as room would allow us in our main store. "

Maud Rae Emerson, Disinherited In
Will of Father, Seeks to Share
In Division of $100,000.
Maud Rae Emerson, legally adopted
daughter of George Rae, who died
February 12. 1918, leaving an estate
valued at $100,000, filed suit in the
county court yesterday afternoon con
testing the right of the widow, Kliz
abeth E. Rae, to her husband's prop
erty, alleging coercion and fraud, and
hinting at the destruction of a will
having radically different terms from
the one filed for probate.
Mrs. Emerson, who is -residing with
her husband in France, is virtually dis-
lnneritea oy a will admitted to Dro-
bate on February 28. 1918. and of
which George W. Thatcher was named
executor. The date of the will is De
cember, 9, 1914.
The petitioner was adopted bv Mr.
Rae and his first wife, who died some
years ago.
For a number of years prior to the
marriage to Elizabeth Rae, Mrs. Em
erson alleges the relations of her
adopted father and his second wife-to-be
were meretricious, - and further
charges that large sums of money were
extorted from Mr. Rae, as well as val
uable property, before the marriage.
During this time. Mrs. Emerson be
lieves her father's mind was poisoned
against her.
A. prior will of which Mrs. Emerson
had knowledge and asserts she believes
can be established in the contest, is
said to have left practically the en
tire estate to the adopted daughter.
County Judge Tazwell issued an or
der yesterday setting 9:30 A. M., March
1, 1919, as the time at which the bene
ficiary of the probated will must show
cause why the will of December 9,
1914, should not be canceled as one ex
ecuted tinder "duress and undue in
fluence.
