Every act in life is not covered in
the ten commandments, so we must
obey the nth commandment. That is
the theme of "The Nth Command-
ment," a picturization of Fanny
Hurst’s novel of the same name now
playing as a Cosmopolitan production
at the Majestio.
The outstanding feature of th© pic-
ture is that it makes a human appeal
in that it depicts the fortunes of a
shop girl who followed that unwritten
commandment -which her, conscience
led her to believe was the proper guide
to her conduct. Colleen Moore as the
shop girl is the star of the picture.
The picture depicts the story of a
beautiful and industrious shop girl in
one of the larger department stores
who falls in love and later marries a
clerk in the wrapping department of
the same store. A singer in the music
department, Jimmy Fitzgibbons, at-
tempts to win the love of the girl

Leah Baird’s Visit to Austin Fri-
day and Saturday to Be Made
Quite a Gala Event.
Austin movie fans will have the
opportunity of getting a "close-up”
of one of the most popular stars of
the screen when Leah Baird appears
in person at the Queen Theatre Fri-
day and Saturday. Miss Baird will
arrive Frlday morning by airplane and
will be met at the landing field by
a committee of local citizens and
brought to the city in a Lincoln car
which will be furnished her for use
during her visit in Austin by courtesy
of the Barker Motor Company. After
reaching the city Miss Baird will visit
several Austin business houses, in-
cluding the Chae. Rosner store, Jeff
D. Morris Gift Shop and the Grif-
fith Company.
At each of the places Miss Baird
will make an Interesting little talk
and award a prize to the prettiest girl
present at the time she appears in
each store. The prizes will Be con-
tributed by the proprietors of the
stores which she visits, and the se-
lection of the prettiest girl will be
made by Miss Baird.
l arge crowds are expected to greet
her at each place as it is very seldom
that Austin people have the oppor-
tunity of coming in such close proxi-
mity with a real live screen star. The
hours of her appearance at the va-
rious stores will bo announced later.

Women” and "The Prisoner of Zenda,"

Wives,” a Schulberg preferred pro-
duction now being shown at the Queen
Theater. In this screen drama, Which
treats with the, details of the life and
trials of women, her acting is superb,
and she is given excellent assistance I
by her supporting cast.
"Poor Men's Wiveg" is one of the I
best pictures that hhg been shown at;
the Queen Theater in recent months’ *
and the large audience which wit-J
nessed its showing Monday evening
appeared pleased with the show. The
clever treatment of the subject of the
film by the producer was noticeable
throughout the presentation of the pic-
ture, which is far better than the class
of picture usually referred to as a
"society drama.”
“Poor Men’s Wives” is a picture that
women moviegoers should enjoy par-
ticularly, ‘and yet there is enough of
real punch in it to make It Interesting
to a he-man.
In addition to the feature picture,
the Queen is showing funny Larry

th© puritanical Mrs. Hammond enters
into the scheme of things ard flatly
refuses to sanction her husband's pro-
posed backing of Burton. Mrs. Ham-
mond declares that Richard Burton's
general reputation for wildness is tfe
reason she opposes any assistance be-
ing rendered him. Her husband
points out Dick’s steady course since
his engagement to Betty, but this has
no weight with Mrs. Hammond who
stubbornly refuses to'believe any good
thing of Dick Burton.
Hammond finally agrees with Rich-
ard that he wiQ endorse Dick’s note

man. Dok obtains the consent of
his friend. Smith, who although a
rounder and a gay follower of the night
life, along Broadway is yet a success-
ful business man and regarded with
respect for his business ability and
financial standing.
Hammond demurs at the idea- of
associating in any way with1 Smith,
but is finally won over, by Richard,
who agrees that no mention of the
part that Hammond has in the trans-
action shall ever be revealed.
Then the influence of the deceit be-
gins to work and in devious ways and
through the tortuous channels of so--
ciety in which Mrs. Hammond has a
consuming ambtlon to reign, rumors
and reports begin to spread connect-
ing John Hammond with a gay party
that occurred at DIck Burton’s apart-
ments. The friendship of the two
men is threatened with complete
wreckage, and not until Dick is ar-
rested and brought to trial for forg-
ing Hammond's name to the note does
Hammond realize the power of the He
