Featuring Blanche Sweet tn Wonder
derful Photo* ij.
In a career that has been remark
able from, every point.of view, Misa
.Blanche: SweoCn?w ?pproachs 'tho
height of (her powers as a photoplay
star. Nothing she hos done pre
viously on the screen is marked with
so .mach artistry, grace and finish as
her performance of "twin alsters1' in
the Jes?? L. Lansky "Feature Play
company's production, "Tho 8ccret
Sin." by Margaret Turnbull.
In toals photoplay we have tho com
bination of a great star and a great
play. .'?The Secret Sin" is a bitter
pronouncement against the drug
evil and tho trade in opium, against
which the United Slues government
for years has waged an unceasing bat
??e., - _
With ?ii ihe tt'.tin of ino juasrky ar
tistic forces centered on. this photo'
play, "TW? Secret. Sin" from the View
point of photography, attention - to
minute detail and sheer sincerity will
take, its place with the masterpieces
of tito screen. AB Miss Sweet ap
pears as "twins" there aro episodes
hi the play'when she appears in two
characters simultaneously.

European War Hard on Newspapers.
When the European war started if
our memory serveB us correctly, the
Associated Press had a surplus in its
treasury of something like half a rall-'
lion dollar. Today it is said this sur
plus has not only been exhausted but
it is thought the assessment on mem
burs will have to be increased in order
to meet the ir .'Teased expeUso ot get
ting the European war news. And
yet, there aro thousands of people
who have an idea that this European
