Caught in the Act"
One of the Best Farce Comedies of the Season
Thursday-Friday-Saturday;
Maurice Touneur's
Sporting Life"
The theme of "The Very Idea,"
which is coming to the Whitney
theater, Thursday, Feb. 20, is unus-
ual and sometimes treads on thin ice,
but manages to do so without giving
offense. It concerns a young couple
who are anxious to please a rich un-
cle whose hobby is eugenics. The un-
cle sneers at his pigmy brother-in-
law and despairs of the future of the
race until he is seized with the great
idea of joining his handsome Hiber-
nian chauffeur with his sister's ro-
bust maid, also Irish. He promises
to adopt their first child for his toy
relatives. The bargain is made but
eventually the mother refuses to ac-
-cept the fortune regarding her child
as a possession of much greater val-
ue. The predicament of the young
couple gives rise to a number of up-
roarious situations which are only
righted by the final fall of the cur-
AT THE MAJESTIC
Maurice Tounneur, the director of
"Sporting Life," which is coming to
the Majestic Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday of this week, has made
several successful interpretations for
the screen, chief among them being
Maeterlintk's "The Blue Bird," Elsie
Ferguson in "Barbary Sheep," and
Mary Pickford -in "The Poor Little
Rich Girl." "Sporting Life" is the
first picture to be presented under
his own company.
Mr. Tonneurabelieved the star sys-
tem to be a fallacy, and thinks that
a group of carefully picked screen
players, each of high ability, is likely
to please film fans while tending to
elevate the art.
AT THE WUERTH
The story of "Life's Greatest
Problem," in which Mitchell Lewis is
starring at the Wuerth, is founded
on Provost Marshal Crowder's "work
or fight" law. It shows how four
