I can hear George swearing when he was handed this story. EASTWARD HO!— Fox We have, here, a rather weak vehicle of most ordinary type, and an utterly conventional story, featuring William Russell. William McLeod Raine's novel apparently had enough stuff in it for a photoplay but the adaptors have taken everything out except the fights and the motionpicture plotting. The tale concerns one Buck Lindsay, a typical cattleman, on whose wholesome and breezy person devolves the straightening out of a tangle arising in the effete and generally wicked East. White slavery and other what-nots are dragged in for cheap thrills, and the result is only tiresome. THE BROKEN BUTTERFLY— Robertson-Cole Monsieur Cody, the elegant heart-breaker, must needs be the eternal vamp, and ho is here shown plying his wiles, his moustache, his tight cuffs, his fancy shoes, his curiou; waistcoat, his naughty eyes, his well-creased trousers, his multitudinous jewelry, and other devices, not forgetting his nonchalance — never must we forget his nonchalance! — upon one Marcene, a child of the Canadian woods. He forgets Marcene, who ihrow.-i herself and her child— also the child of the tight cuffs, curious waistcoat, multitudinou.i jewelry, etc., etc., etc. — into a pond. Come.i regret to the gentleman of the various and several assets, and he atones by marrying hev sister. Afterward, we find that a dog pulled her and her baby from the lake. DAWN— Blackton-Pathe Eleanor H. Porter's story of the supeisensitive young blind artist, Keith Burton, and his sweetheart, Dorothy Parkmaii. These parts are played, and well played, by Robert Gordon and Sylvia B reamer. Miss Porter's many readers need no synopsis, but to others it may be said that the narrative concerns young Burton's blindness, and his sweetheart's faithful devotion, even though she has to ply that devotion to the melancholy lad under an assumed name, when he resolutely cast her from him, rather than have her share his lightless life. The strongest and bravest part of the story is that it works itself to its conclusion without the usual magical restoring operation. Here, the operation is a failure. The story is seriouii, but is relieved by certain comedy touchcj. In continuity it is rather uncertain, but the direction atones for much of this. A DAY OF PLEASURE First National Not much can be said for le grand Chaplin's new instrument of merriment. It wheezes along like the Ford car that carries it its first few yards, has two or three really funny episodes reminiscent of Charles in his best moods, and a long, long footage which is just patent vulgarity. It begiiiJ with the family's departure, as the title suggests, for "a day of pleasure." The antics of the reliquary Henry, which, with its engine running, rocks like a tug in a typhoon, are not only laughable but reminiscent to many a man who has dolled the wife and kids up, fed the car water and gas and oil, and, at the last minute, finds some unaccountable ailment in its insides making him a fixture instead of a roamer.
