letter !
In "Dream Street," David Wark
Griffith has achieved what a lot of
New York critics have been assum
ing this season to be well-nigh im
possible. He has dramatized a story
of goodness nnd light and happi
ness in conflict with wickedness and
darkness and despair, against n
background in which tho forces of
darkness had nil the best of it and
he has made goodness and happiness
the victor and has given, at the same
time, a tremendously artistic produc
tion. It is a sweeping answer to the
people who have argued that in a
story in which it looked as though
happiness was doomed, it must be
doomed, or elso the drama misses
tho fire of realism and art. "Dream
Street" in its bigness and its power
is1 another "Broken Blossoms," but
I'll admit that, I was glad it, lacked
tho final tragedy.
Tho controversy which lies raged
In art nnd court circles .these past
months between tho claim of blondes
versus those of brunettes seems to
have mot with a practical decision
In the quotation from a prominent
hairdresser. "Which is tho most ar
tistic?" ho echoed. 'Which tho "more
loyal?" And ho shrusged his shoul
ders. "I don't know, I'm sure. All I
know is that I get 40 cents an ounco
more for blondo hair than for dark.
That shows which niost people want
to be."
