The latest comedy o(>us .Torn the Paramount organization, "The Grand Duchies and tile Waiter," may well be ehanieteriaed as a triple triupmh. It is certainly a triumph for Mal colm St. Clair, the rising young di rectorial genius, who has taken this frisky French stage success by Al fred Savior and transferred it to the silver sheet with the regal opulence of n Do Mille and the Continental sophistication of a Lubitseh. It is a decided triumph for Adolphe Meitjou, whose smooth and polished performance of the wealthy Parisian boulevardier masquerading as a waiter is -the finest exposition of ‘screen artistry the current season has produced. It is assuredly a triumph for Flor ence Vidor, who looks ravishingly bchutiful in her new French bob and startling army of fashionable gown cerations, and who plays the role of the haughty and fascinating Grand Duchess with the charm and poise and consummate skill of a seasoned trouper. ; Those two, Slenjou and Miss ! Vidor, hold the center of the stage . throughout the unreeling of the pio '■ ture and provoke a continuous suc cession of laughs and chuckles- The! ; plot, though of light substance, has been so deftly handley by St. Clair that it becomes a matter of consid erable interest in itself and keeps tlicl audience wondering what's cow ing- next and how it's all going to end. The aetion hinges on Menjou's ex perienees as n waiter and later as a member of the Duchess' personal staff. The idea of falling in love with a servant is unthinkable to the Duchess, and yet there is something about Menjou Hint piques her curi e.sity and stir.- her wuiotions. But the waiter's suave tow-making finally sweeps away a'l barriers. Even then her pride prompts her to run away, but a persistent search and a com plete explanation bring happy re |,-ults.

Salacious Literature. Albemarle I Voss. True reforms work themselves ent slowly. From time in metnorinin conditions have sduk to the lowest' levels, only to suddenly bring to the mind < ? right-thinking people the need of a house-cleaning, a rennis- : sanoe of thought along that particu lar line. That is the need of Ameeica today in its literature -a rebirth of thought —a thorough evolution of code among pr.bHnhers. if the rising generation of A nierii-Hcs, those who some day Vill rule the destinies of tip- nation, are to be led into a higher plane of thought. Salacious literature is nH too com-' moil today. Flashing lutyl pictures forth from tlieir covers, they readily 1 attract the eye of the younger boy or gT> in the adolescent stage And the" remit is not wholesome. Instead of r creation of new ideals ii the mind that should come from reading, hun dreds, thousands and even millions of youths just out of the children stage are devouring salacious literature to day. Tlie dime novels of yesteryear nere but the merest drivel in leading toe minds of youthful reader- into wrong trends of thoughts us compared to the overdrawn, .unwholesome maga z'ries and sex-novels of today. Just so surely as reforms have worked themselves out slowly iu other : day*, so the sentiment against salac ious literature is growing today It is time to call g halt; time for lead ers of American thought to take a firm stand against this cantankerous growth eating into theisinds of young er America.
