GEORGE ARLISS STARS IN
“A SUCCESSFUL CALAMITY’
motion
IRENE DUNNE TOPS
SCREEN ROLES IN
“SYMPHONY” FILM
Irene Dunne is the one player on
the screen today who portrays only j
roles of idealized womanhood. j
She does not smoke in her pictures; j
neither will she appear in gambling
scenes and none of her scenes can be I
based on sex situations. In short
she is the prototype of perfect Ame-
rican womanhood.
As Sabra, in the epic “Cimarron,” j
she was a self-sacrificing woman and j
devoted mother, uncomplaining altho
circumstances and situation pressed
her hard.
In “Bachelor Apartment,” she por-
trayed the character of a working
girl, who, like Cinderella, found a
sudden and satisfying romance.
In “Consolation Marriage" she star-
red as a dutiful wife—a perfect speci-
men of womanhood.
In her current RKO-Radio Picture,
"Symphony of Six Million,” now
showing at the Titus Theatre, she is
seen as a missionary of good cheer in
the slums of New York, a woman who
has devoted her life to the teaching
of poor East Side children. She is
co-featured in the film with Ricardo
Cortez, who portrays a young surgeon.
Miss Dunne cares nothing for glam-
our-, but strangely enough, she has
found considerable fame as the lead-
ing screen exponent of the type of
woman all women want to be.
EASTERN TRUNK LINES
AGREE ON CONSOLIDATION
A new George Arliss picture is al-

picture public, and “A Suc-
cessful Calamity,” his latest Warner
Bros, triumph, opening Tuesday at
the Titus Theatre, promises to excel
all of its excellent predecessors in
popularity.
The story deals with an American)
family of great wealth; a great fi-
nancier, his young and lovely wife
and his two grown children; all of
whom find themselves so busy with
the pleasures and duties imposed up-
on them by their money and position
that no time is left for the enjoyment
of real family ife.
In an attempt to remedy this un-
happy situation the father announces
suddenly that he is ruined. Amazing
and far reaching complications which
he little expects, result immediately.
The delightful comedy unfolds against
the most luxurious settings ever de-
vised for a picture of this type. It
is presented with a cast so excellent j seen in Arliss pictures,
that every bit part is played by an j Mary Astor, one of

New York, Sept. 25.—Now that
eastern trunk line leaders have agreed
among themselves on consolidation
under four systems of $8,000,000,000
in railroad properties, informed cir-
cles here believed Saturday the way
will be open for huge unifications in j
other parts of the country.
The Eastern situation was ad-
mittedly the most complicated aspect
of general railroad consolidation and
with the announcement of the ac-
cord, the chances for other consolida-
tion agreements to follow was de-
scribed as good.
After conferring three hours, heads
of the New Y'ork Central, Pennsylvan-
ia, Baltimore and Ohio and Chesa-
peake and Ohio announced they had
reached an accord on the modified
plan recent approved by the inter-
state commerce commission for con-
solidating all carriers in this territory
into four major systems. They said
they had composed all differences be-
tween themselves arising from the
plan.

Many roads...
which one
shall 1 take?
When the long road dips sweetly down a hill and
ends up in a blank and puzzled amazement at a jumble
of cross-roads, unless you know your way, you’ll push
down hard on the brakes! And then look around to
see where you’re going...
Five roads jutting off in various directions of the
compass. One road is yours. Four lead you astray,
but a brief glance—and you’re off. On the right road.
For a sign was over each road to direct your way.
Just as the directoins point the way in a maze of
roads; so does modern advertising guide you in the
right direction through the multitude of products of-

Advertising points the way, straight and clear,
to economical and advantageous marketing. It dis-
tinguishes the good product. It directs your way by
indicating the articles best adapted to your needs.
Read the advertisements in the paper as care-
fully as you would the signs above the crossroads.
They point out your buying road as surely and as
safely!
