When this versatile star brought "The Hunchback of Xotre Dame" through the gamut of critical scrutiny to the itreatest success ever achieved by a screen produc tion of its kind hs was acclaimed as the greatest of character in terpreters in the profession, but it was predicted that he had set a pace for himself that be could never again equal. That the critics were in error in the predictions has been estab lished by their own uastlnted; praise of his latest endeavor They now aeciare "The Phantom of the Opera" to be an even ' mtw achievement than was the "Hunch back of Notre Dame," and do so without qualifying their claims-. Chaney's role Is that of the opera ghost that haunts the Paris Opera House and is responsible for a mysterious series of violent crimes, the solution of which pro vides a powerful story for the background of the star's wonder ful interpretation of his weird character, and the locale of the story furnishes the excuse for the magnificent and - costly settings that have been woven into the pic ture, reproductions of the historic cenes described ' in the novel by Furnace Heat At Low Cost We ha va . the ' Allan's Parlor Furnace in a . plain, finish which we, ean sell yon for a little,' more than an ordinary , good heater would cost yon.
