John M. stnhl, «director a: “Hus-
bands and Lovers.” playing at the
(Rialto Theatre Wednesday. Thursday
and trlday. has hurled a dot! at the
writers at the day ‘who in story and
play marry or! their heroes and herb-
toes and then write "Finis” Mr.
Stall! maintains that real 1%!!!th
follows marriage rather than pre-
cedes it. ‘
"Most books and many plays no.
line romance as the stage at bub—
bllng, enthusiastic . direction that
finds its highest péint of progress in
engagement or m rinse," he says.
"And there the nu are let it drop.
considering the subject all played
out.
“In reality marriage is just the be-
glnnlng of romance. The puppy-love,
vlolets-and-ccndy period is merely a
pleasant preliminary. What is
sweeter. more beautltul or
wondertul than happy married lite?
Its succesSml continuance represents
the ultimate in life’s blessings. It
embodies the fighting. shoulder to
shoulder. or lite' o battles; the racing
together of sorrows; the sharing of
joys. It brings wel~earned peace and
contentment. It is real romance "

‘PAL O’MINE’
Adaptation o f Edith
Kennedy’s Story of
Woman Who Left
Career for Marriage
There has been much discussion
as to whether or not a man or wo-
man who has named a. successful
carecr‘on the stage. or who is plan-
ning to enter the profession should
not oi? the theatre To those who
are interested in this problem. for
and against. which there is much to
be said. “Pal 0' Mi ,” featuring
Irene .Rich. ;which ornes to the
Palace theatre on Thursday. will
have special. weight. For in this
photodrama Miss Rich portrays a
young woman who forsakes a. slug-
er‘s career to marry a man whohas
never been or the theatre, and can.
not understand its ways nor the
crews of its people.
There seems to be an idea. lodged
in the minds 0: many people that
people of the stage are “bad." When
her husband suitors financial loss
his wife goes on the stage and he is
given ample opportunity to view the
theatrical world at close range.
How the insidious poison of his
viewpoint reacted ‘upon the young
husband when a. member or the op-
era. company told him of his wife's
seemingly suspicious actions and he
began to question her habits—and
the result of that questioning upon
their life together, weaves the pat—
tern of :1 story startling in its truth
and in the strength. ornits human-
.ness: ’ ‘
That an excellent story is to be
expected is a matter or course, to:
11011 of Edith Kennedy’s story. The
strength or the original theme has
been transferred to the screen with
a fidelity towards the spirit or the
tale, and a simplicity of detail that
is fine.
