NEW CO-STARS
SCORE BIG SUCCESS
In "Twenty-Three And A
Half Hours' Leave"
Two new co-stars hold the screen
at the Horn Theatre for the current
bill in a Thomas H. Ince production
entitled '"Twenty-three and a Half
Hours' Leave," which is released
as one of the Paramount-Artcraft
pictures. Douglas MscLean and
Doris May are their names and while
many photoplay-goers of this city
may remember them from previous
subjects in which they have appear
ed, this is the first time that they
have blossomed forth as stars. Mr.
Mac Lean has appeared opposite
such popular screen personalities
as Mary Pickford and Dorothy Dal
ton, while Miss May, under the
name of Doris Lee, appeared with
Kay in a number of that
popular actor's notabie pictures.
It is a happy co-starring team
which these two players provide.
They have youth, good looks and
plenty of persona ity and it is prac
tically a foregone conclusion that
future pictures of theirs will be
eagerly sought aftsr when the merits
of "Twenty-three and a Half Hours'
Leave'' are considered.
The present picture is splendid
light comedy, with a strong roman
tic interest, and centers around a
training camp in which men were
prepared for the recent war.
"Twenty-three and a Half Hours'
Leave" does not, however, have any
war atmosphere. It is pure fun and
romance from first to last and is re
motely removed from anything in
the least gruesome or foreboding.
It is an adaptation from a story by
Mary Roberts Reinhardt, recently
published in one of the popular
national magazines. Mrs. Reinhardt
is an author who is constantly in
touch with the wants of the public
and her "Twenty-three and a Half
Hours' Leave" is proof conclusive
of this statement.
The stars appear as Williaa Gray,
a sergeant of the training camp, and
Peggy Dodge, the daughter of the
general in command. Their first
meeting comes just after Gray has
been severely reprimanded by Gen
eral Dodge because the young man s
pet dog had flown at the officer and
taken a small piece out of his leg.
But such a little thing dosen't pre
vent Bill and Peggy from falling
deeply in iove. Bow the romance
progresses to the tune of any num
ber of complications that would arise
in an army training camp, complica
tions that any returned soldier may
vouch for as humorous when applied
to a romance, it is not for us to re
late here.
Suffice it that a good many humor
ous high-lights have been brought
out on the screen. It is only ne
cessary to the manner in
which Bill meets Peggy clad in an
ulster and B. V. D.'s, owing to the
fact that he has been deprived of his
uniform because he was wearing a
tailor-made article and to refer in
general to the many humorous
scenes which arise when Bill simply
can't hold to the rules and regula
tions of the man's army of which he
is a part.
The new stars have made their
screen bow together under the per
sonal supervision of Thomas H. Ince.
Mr. Ince might well be termed a
maker of stars, inasmuch as he has
brought to the screen such great
players as William S. Hart, Charles
Ray, Dorothy Dalton, Enid Bennett,
Sesseu Hayakawa, the Japanese ac
tor, and others too numerous to
mention here,

The scene is a road-house. The
hour —when the night-owls screech
their loudest in a juzz-und-cocktail
rythm. At a table alone sit a soph
iscated bacnelor and another man's
wife drinking wine. The lady is
gay and laughes with a cackle. The
man is grave, except his eyes which
have an ominous gleam in them.
The laugnter of the guests becomes
raucous, as gaiety merges into an
org\\ but the man still remains
glum.
"Cheer up —you look like you're
attending your own funeral," the
woman says impatiently.
"Perhaps ] am —who knows?" —
the man replies with a sardonic
smile.
A few moments later they leave,
step into a roadster and whirl away
into the night.
In the cold-grey light of the dawn
a wrecked car is found at the foot of
an embankment, and underneath the
body of the moody bachelor and the
other man's wife —both dead. On
