“Ebb Tide" Hast
; Theme of Fine
1 . Heart Appeal
The absorbing and sympathetic
story of how Robert Herrick was
mired in the swamps of civilization
land of how he finally struggled
back to firm ground to the, theme
for “Ebb Tide," a picturisation of
Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous
story, which will be shown at the
4 oil mple - theater next Friday and
Saturday. Uto Lee, (James Kirk-
fwond, Raymond Hatton, George
Faweett Noah Beery and Jacqueline
“Logan are th. featured players.
A young man of good birth and
too careful rearing—he was never al-
lowed to face responsibility—Robert
/Herrick becomes, a drifter and as
stranded on the beach of a Booth
Sea island. Here he meets two
other derelicts, a discredited but
likeable master mariner named
Davis and a shady, vile-mouthed
London clerk called Huish. The
three are drawn together by the.
bonds of hunger and exile, and they
a barely exist until’s chance offers to
take out a smallpox ship.
The voyage of this schooner with
its cargo of champagne and its na-
tive crew tries the souls of the
three derelicts, and each faces th.
1 crisis in a different way. When
food runs low they sight a mysteri-
sous island, where they found a re-
markable white man named Att-
water, who has lived there with his
daughter and a few natives. For
ryeare Attwater has taken pearis
from the lagoon, and this treasure
"offers a new temptation to the three
adventurers. Herrick to ensnared
against his well, but Attwater elev-
serly defeats Davis and Mulsh nad
wins over Herrick to the side of
honor.
Naturally there is a girl who love.
Herrick, and her devotion has much
* to do with snatching Herrick from
“the ebb tide to man’s affairs.”
. The photoplay is excellent, and
, the scenes on Attwater’s island are
— of the most gripping character. A
desperate fight with a devil fish to
twenty feet of water is one of the
bis thrills of the picture.

A whole section of N^w York's

of the metropolis, was constructed
at the Metro studios in Holywood
for “The Five Dollar Baby,” th.
. Irvin S. Cobb short story in which
Viola Dana is starring at th. Gem
theater Monday, *3 :
Since it was hardly practical to
erect a second Statute of Liberty,
and Brooklyn Bridge for the pur-
poses of the screen, it was necessars;
Io shoot several scenes on New.
York’s waterfront, with Ito famous
harbor skyline- in the background.
This series of unusual views were
used to connection with the settings
cons trusted at - Holl 1, wood.
It was first planned to send an
entire company to New York for the
making of the picture. This project
was abandoned, however, when it
wa. decided that better reanits
could be obtained by taking the Now.
Tock scenes on streets constructed
for th. purpose with extras en-
gaged for the particular occasion,
rather than with pedestrians who
might be expected to flock to the
camera during th. taking of a plc-
ture in the Ghetto.
Harry Beaumont directed the pho-
toplay. “The adaption. Of the' Cobb
story_for the screen was done by
Rex Taylor. The photography was
done by ‘John Arnold. A. F. Meats
