and characterizations could be duplicated in experiences at the Front, but the emphasis on personal relations, the piling up of bloody horrors accompanied by flippant dialogue, give a very definite feeling of unreality and insincerity which must be very disappointing to many of the women who gave their services overseas with nursing units.

WAY FOR A SAILOR. Jack Gilbert. Direction by Sam Wood. M.G.M.
A story of sailors in low water-front dives accompanied by the type of rough action and illiterate dialogue suitable to the setting. Jack Gilbert’s role is not admirable and the theme is uninteresting. Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 8 to 12. No. No.
PAID. Joan Crawford, Robert Mont
gomery. Direction by Sam Wood. Adapted from the stage play “Within The Law.” M.G.M.
Miss Crawford distinguishes herself in this excellently presented adaptation of the stage melodrama. The story concerns the experiences of a girl who during an unjust imprisonment, studied law in order to be able to evade it legally and revenge herself on society. Human emotions, which she cannot control, trap her and her followers in the end. It is an engrossing story, admirably presented. Its social value in these times of criminal stress is debatable. For one it may stimulate a desire to correct existing judiciary and police conditions. In an other the clever evasions may only arouse admiration and a desire to emulate. Sympathy is undoubtedly with the criminals. It is Miss Crawford’s best effort and her support is excellent. It will interest and entertain.
Adolescents, 12 to 16. Children, 8 to 12. Very doubtful. No.

THE LOVE BARGAIN. Educational.
An ordinary shallow slapstick comedy of matrimonial difficulties no worse than many of its type. Enjoyment will certainly be a matter of taste.
