It is a gripping story of mother

Satisfactory ending. It is of the

His memorable work in""Behind

his latest comedy feature. There
is something in Reery's character
that lends itself naturally and
without any effort, to comedy. In
the role of the Ignorant, awkward
baseball player, "Casey" he is a
riot to those who love to laugh.
The play furnishes plenty of situa

is without doubt Beery's best effort.

Her romance, her marriage, her
flirtations, her beautiful child, her
advent into society, and hex final
realization of all she could give
for happiness, are the romantic
highlights of this photodrama of
American life, directed by that
master o? sympathetic interpreta
tion, Henry King, and sponsored
by Samuel Goldwyn, as his first
picture for United Artists Corpor
ation. All of fashion's aids to make
beauty more beautiful enter into
the scheme of the drama. Gorge
ous gowns worn by Alice Joyce,
who plays Helen Morrison, and the
wedding costume of Lois Moran,
who plays Laurel, are saldto be
ravishing to the eye.
Evening gowns, street wear,
hats, all of latest mode and trim
form a veritable parade for femi
nine delight.
Belle Bennett, who plays the
title role of Stella, employs paint,
powder, mascara, jewels, perman
ent wavers, wrinkle removers and
an array of feminine adjuncts that
everyone readily associates .with
the kind of a girl Stella is.

Nanking Crisis uw
"With the evacuation of all the
remaining Americans from Nan
king, the crisis in that city is ap
parently ended. One killed and
four injured constitutes the Am
erican toll of casualties, as far as
known. .
Dr. J. E. Williams. American
vice president of Nanking univers
ity, whose death was reported in
previous dispatches, wag shot by
a Cantonese soldier who had just
participated in the looting of his
home.
Those injured were Miss Anna
E, Moffet, a missionary worker,
shot twice by Cantonese troops;
Marine Private Plumley, Earl T.
ftobart, manager of the Standard
Oil plant on Secony Hill, where
one band of refugees were be
sieged by Cantonese until relieved
by the Anglo-American naval gun
fire, and an un-named American
blHejackef.
Women Mistreated
American women were treated
brutally by the Cantonese soldiery,
but with the exception of the shoot
ing of Miss Moffet. who is expected
to recover, the offenses apparently
were limlte'd to insults and rough
handling '
On the other hand, Japanese
women and children were outraged
and assaulted, and at least two of
their men folk were shot or bay
onetted in vain efforts to protect
them. J ,,- f
The American marines who had
been sent ashore to guard the con
sulate acquitted themselves splen
didly, and accompanied the Socony
Hill refugees safely out of Nan
king to the warships In the river.
Refugees arriving here were
fervent in their praise of the navy
men, declaring: "The navy saved
us. Without it every foreigner
would have been murdered."
Sailors Aet Heroic
One of the outstanding inci
dents was the heroic action of an
American sailor, who. when the
refugees were huddled on Socony
Hill, surrounded by mobs of loot
crazed Cantonese, stood on the
roof of the Standard Oil building,
amid a hail of bullets and gave the
signal which brought into play the
big guns on Oie warships. ,
One of the American ships was
the first to open fire, and the shell
bursting a few yards from the be
sieging Cantonese soldiers, scat
tered them and allowed the refu
gees their chance to-get to the
river.
Japanese sources at Nanking,
giving a graphic account of the
sacking of the Japanese consulate,
say that early Thursday a force of
150 uniformed Cantonese besieged
and looted the consulate, mean
while firing at refugees and man
handling the women folks. :
The consul.' who was ill abed,
was assaulted and two officials
were stabbed with bayonets. The
Icoters. who tried to burn down
tho building, took everything they
were able to Iaytheir hands on,
but decamped - on the arrival of a
Kaombatang official whose aid was
invoked by telephone.- ! .
The Catholic church at Nanking,
these sources said,. was looted and
burned. I . "... ' .
