A motion picture' that will strike home to many young Am erican married couples, is ''Dan gerous Curve Ahead!" a Goldwyn feature; and written by Rupert Hughes, which comes to the Ore gon theater for three days, com mencing today. Miss Helene Chadwick, called the "most pho tographed girl in America," has the principal role. The btory of the play concerns the early married life of a small town girl who was the belle of her community before her mar riage to an easy going domesi cally inclined husband. Inward ly chafing under the restraints imposed by the cares of her home, and the rearing of her two chil dren, She seizes the first oppor tunity jto taste again of the but terfly , Jife in society," while her husband is away on business. "Howj she avoids the Dangerous Curve, and s brought to her senses !by the illness of her little child, eagerly resuming the yoke of domesticity, is dramatically portrayed. The jpictnre Is well acted and splendidly photographed, several innovations being resorted to that alone lift the film from the com monplace. Miss Chadwick does the bejst work of her career in the picture, and she is ably sup ported by Richard Dix, "Lefty" FlynnJ of Yale athletic fame, James Nelll, Edythe Chapman and Kate Lester, Despite two broken ribs, a severe laceration of the rignt arm and bruises about the body, suffered when her limousine automobile was struck by a street car.

It is entirely different from anything the star has pre viously! been seen In and gives him the opportunity to do some of the jiest acting of his career. Eugene O'Brien plays the role of the j "Magnet," a gentlemanly criminal who enters into his es capades only because of an Irre sistabie desire for adventure. He loves tie thrill of outwitting the detectives who are always on his trail but unable to catch him. At a fashionable affair he passes himself off as a wealtny explorer who has recently returned from South Africa. In reality he is af ter a priceless pewel which he knows is in the possession of the host and his exploits in that di rection leads hiin through many exciting adventures. "As I predicted unlimited suc cess for my recent production, "Lying Lips," so do I predict a still greater, more widely influ encing success for my latest ef fort, "Mother O'MIne." It is a pantomimic rhapsody of the very greatest love in all the world the love of a mother for her son. You will cry a bit, perhaps, but through the glistening tears will shine a rainbow of joy and good phpftr. for sis a mnther'n hoar) radiates the blessings of faith ani undying devotion, so does my pra duction, "Mother O'Mine," radi ate that understanding and sim ple humanness which brings the world together, as one, for one trodding onward and onward with everlasting contentment waiting, and beckoning, at the end." 11 Thomas H.

Regardless of how firmly fixed in a man's makeup may be an inherent desire to be scrupulous ly honest, there is hardly a man who, if it becomes necessary in order that those dear to him be rescued from starvation, would not set out to procure food in spite of every law. This situation is one of the big incidents that go to make up a screen story known as "The Mother Heart," in which Shirley Mason, petite star, will be seen at the Oregon theater beginning next Wednesday and Thursday.
