Following ."Tha Millionaire"" at tha Elsinora will ba the so phisticated and smart comedy ro mance "The (Devil May Cire" with Ronald Colman. It is hard to Imagine Ronald Colman In any role but a very ultra smart and sophisticated one. Every thing about the man, from his mannerisms ;to his clothes breaths sophistication and poise: and not only that he is genuine and 1 possessed with dramatic power which in my estimation is closely approaching Arllss. Samuel Goldwyn is said to be responsible for. tha development of Colman. Mr. Goldwyn brought the young Englishman to- Holly wood and has kept an eye on him since that time. Colman was educated for an engineer, al though he came from a family of theatre people. - When the war' came he enlisted, was wounded, and when he recovered he chose the 'stage to begin his life over again, s . r i , . ; His English accent is one of the , beautiful ; characteristics ot his speaking roice.
