I RAMON ··· ~AVARRO ADELPHI The Adelphi theatre has booked for Friday and Saturday, July 11 and 12, "Women Who Give," that story of the Cape Cod fisherman. Barbara Bedford and Renee Adoree are the women who give much of their happiness while their men devote their lives to the sea. There are a number of risky scenes in this picture which involved careful photography and delicate action in the roughs of the water. A battle with a swordfish was almost a costly affair, in human lives. A shipwreck scene is so realistic that one can well be satisfied that be took part in this catastrophe. Since her role as Madame DuBarry in "Passion," Pola Negri has not shown as much fire and action in her pictures as she does in "Men," her latest starring vehicle which will be at the Adelphi, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, ] uly 13, 14 and 15. In this picture she develops from a waitress in a small Paris restaurant to a much admired dancer. She has her first love which does not turn out favorably at first. Here and there are scenes which remind one of the Pola Negrj of the impressive scenes of her former picture. Wednesday and Thursday, "The White Moth" will be on view at the Adelphi, with a cast including Barbara LaMarr, 'Conway Tearle, Ben Lyon, Charles de Roche, Josie Sedgwick, Edna Murphy, Kathleen Kirkham and William Orlamond.

This old three-master, in the heyday of its glorious youth, was known as one of the smartest schooners plying the Pacific shipping lanes. Once on a trip around the Horn with a cargo from San Francisco to New York, a heavy storm made its crew anxious to abandon the vessel. The captain and a few of the loyal seamen fought the mutinous sailors into submission. This schooner was renamed "The Chink" and is used as the background for many of the vigorous scenes in "Code of the Sea," which comes to the Evanston theatre for three days, starting Monday, July 14. Agnes Ayres is featured in the principal role of "The Guilty One," which will have a three-day run at the Evanston, starting Thursday, July 17, with Edward Bums, Clarence Burton, Cyril Ring, Craufurd Kent, George Seigman and others in the supporting cast. Joseph Henabery, who directed this picture for Paramount, predicts that this picture will start the movie field hunting for mystery drama. Its vogue on the stage and in the short story field, make it probable to attract the movie producers.
