“ENEMIES OF WOMEN"

 

Begins Four Day Engagement at
Rialto Tomorrow.

“Enemies of “'omen." Cosmopoli—
tan Corporation's production of the
Vincent Beiasco Ibanez story of the
same title. with Lionel Barrymore
and Alma Rubens featured in the
two leading roles. opens at the Ri~
alto theatre for a four days' engage-
ment. Alan Crosland was the di-
rector. Joseph Urban designed
settings and John Lynch prepared
the scenario. With many of its
scenes taken on the actual locations
of the story in Monte Carlo. Nice and
Paris. and with‘ a lavishness of pro-
duction never surpassed. the film
promises to excel the average "an-
per production" in every way.

Blasco Ibanez proved in his brilli-
ant "Four Horsemen of the Apoca—
lypse" and “Blood and Sand" that
his stories have particular screen
quality. Perhaps his ability in
colorful description of characters
and scenes is responsible for the
ease with which his stories have been
broilght to the screen. in “Enemies
of Women." the drama of regenera»
tion of man and woman. is laid in
the background of Russian society
gaming tables at Monte Carlo SH H
life. shifting to Monte Carlo and
thence to Paris. Under the revels
of Russian courtesans. the tragedy
of the gaming tables at Monte Ca-‘eo
and the love of a man and woman.
there is the constant rumbling of
cannons of war. The story has prac-
tically every element in it required
for a great screen dra‘ma.

Joseph Urban has designed mag-
niflcient settings for the Russian
palace of Prince Lubimoft. the
French villa of Alicia. a replica of
the Casino. and the Monte Carlo
home of the prince.

Alan Crosland. the director, has
had his opportunities in a number
of fete. fight, fashion and emotional
scenes as well as in big war epi-
sode. Besides the two featured
players in the cast includes Pedro
de Cordoba. W. R. Thompson. Gareth
Hughes. Gladys Hulitte. William
Collier. Jr., Mario Majeronl. Paul
Panzer and Betty Bouton.

Perched majestically an Westport
avenue hill and far :enough away
from the highway ‘to .shutout the
purr of speeding motors-and the
chug of heavily laden trucks as
they wend their way over the traf-
iic-burdened‘Post road. is the Home
for the Aged of‘Norwalk._a building
which spells‘home for thirteen con-
tented-”women who have passed the
meridian of life. . ' 1

This home. which is maintained
by the Town Union of King's
Daughters and Sons. was founded
twelve years ago by several kind-
hearted women 'of Norwslk. who
saw the need of such arr institution
here. - Mrs. 'Mlnerva' Davis. who was
one of the first to become intereat-
ed in the work. has since its incep-
tion been president-of the associa-
tion. Mrs. Robert F. Way is vice-
president.

Shortly after the.ldea of establish-
ing a home for Norwaik's aged was
conceived. the present site was pur-
chased. The first inmates to be
received into .the'home were inn old
couple, who were alone in the
world. The‘woman who was in a
weakened condition for the-want of
proper nourishment -only‘ lived a
few weeks after being taken in. but
her husband lived here for four
years.

Old couples are received into the
homer Single men. however. are
not admitted. Just at present all
the rooms are occupied but the
thirteen happy_guests are hoping
that a. new wing will be built soon.
that many more of their less for-
tunate sisters may join them.

The second floor of the Home. is
devoted to the sleeping garters.
Each. woman has her ow; room.
The only tasit' assigned‘to each in—
mate is the care" of her own room.
True woman fashion they love to
fuss and as a result their rooms are
the personification of neatness and
order. Each room has a single iron
bed. a. bureau, a table and a couple
of chairs. ' »

lngro om are on the first floor. The

which the sun beams. Each guest

a low rocker. with her hand rest-
