TIIE EVENING SUN, BALTIMORE. WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 0, 1031 22 and Mrs. Joahua Davia and Mr. and For Film Fans remedy this condition and It is believed that all the other studios will follow.

A LETTER from Chester B. Lewis, this city, asks whether we wrote the review of "Tabu" during Society! Today's Anagrams How's Your Health? of iledimn By Dr. Iago Galdston Movie Close-Ups By Q. E. D.

'By Q. E. "Bad Girl," With James Dunn And Sally Eilers Heading Cast, Termed Much Better Than Novel On Which Film Is Based the stay of that fine film at the Audi torium. Mr. Lewis, so he says, finds our "column of sweetness and light something to flee from," but he found so much to admire in the review of "Tabu" that he feels sure our "under study" must have done it.

There is more in this initial communication that bears out the attitude indicated above. As much as we would like to please Mr. Lewis, we are forced to admit that we, and we alone, are responsible for the review mentioned. We are glad he thought so highly o' it. And we 11 give him one of Lillian Russell's auto graphed slippers if he'll show where that review "transcended" our "usual bed-time story manner." By the way, Mr.

Lewis, you should meet Miss Annette Katz. You two would certainly have one thing in common. TTERE and there. Remember Madge Bellamy? "Mother Knows Best" was her last picture. Metro gave the lass a test last week and if the test turns out and there's no telling but thai: Mistress Madge may land with the roaring lion outfit.

Universal is rewriting "Impatient Virgin" and if Clara Bow cares for the revised version, the "it" girl may sign with the Universal organization and try for a comeback. You prob- ablv saw that Carole Lombard became ill and had to drop out of the cast of "The Greeks Had a Word for it." But did you see that Madge Evans was going to get her uacated part? And how did you like "An American Tragedy?" After all, Dreiser shouldn't feel so terribly bad about it all. He got $150,000 for the screen rights to his novel and that's probably more than you'll ever get for anything you'll ever write. rpHE mere contract writers out oh J- the West Coast are all smiles these days. It looks very much as though the worm of publicity is going to turn at last and, praise be, in their direc tion.

In the past, plenty of publicity haa been lavished on the Dreisers, the Shaws, the Fcrbers and all the rest. but all the adapters got was a measly line or two, if that. But for sometime especially since the advent of the talkies, the studios have been coming to realize the importance of the adapter and it is the Fox organization, via the progressive Mr. Sheehan, which takes the first definite step in the direction of recognition. There are many people in the pic ture industry who are inclined to the belief that the adapter of the story or play by a famous author is more important to the ultimate picture than the famous author himself.

The fa mous author may have perpetrated a famous novel or play but that novel or play, as It stands, is of small value to the picture people. It has to be translated into their language and the value of the translation, as revealed in the eventual success or failure at the boxoffice, all depends on the adapter working on a contract. Every studio has its staff writers and many of them have been in the business for years and years. But no one has heard of them; few people even know of their existence. Everyone knows, of course, that Jawn Hairoil's latest picture was a huge success, but few realize the important part played by the man who adapted the script.

Fox is the first studio to Inj and marriaK of Eddie Collins and Dorothy Haley. Neither haa ever had much happiness, but Eddie in par ticular is determined to change things about so far as they are concerned. It is the coming of the baby that brings all the trouble into their little family, and it Is this same baby that finally smoothes out all disturbances. A jolly little talc, rich in human interest and well worth seeing. 1 iVeif; Freak Of Garden Like Grape And Prune Salxm, Ore.

(U.Rj Another freak of the garden is on display here. The "what-is-it" has characteristics of the grape and prune. It has no seeds and the flavor is said tobe especially delectable. The tree on which it grows was supposed to be an Italian prune tree. Horticulturists have been unable to identify it.

Pro 1 1 Plus Prndictil Apparently the underwear designers anticipate a chilly winter. They have devised a warm knitted vest and bloomer combination in strong but pliable cotton with a very attractive rayon stripe running diagonally across the material. Trimmed with an edging also knitted around the neck and knees, the garment is pretty no less than practical. Biliary Colic II 'HEN gallstones block any of the ducts leading from the liver or the gall bladder to the small intestines, a series of violent symptoms appear and give rise to a condition called biliary colic, commonly known as a gallstone attack. The attack usually comes on abruptly, accompanied by a severe pain in the upper right portion of the abdomen, in the region ol the rib margins.

The pain is very intense (the patient literally rolls in agony) and it tends to radiate or spread from the region of the gall bladder. One of its characteristic directions of spread is toward the shoulder. Associated with this pain are chills and a rise in temperature, sometimes as high as 103 degrees. There may be a great deal of vomiting and profuse sweating. A attack of biliary colic may last for a few hours, several days or for as long as a week or more.

Jaundice may result when there Is interference with the normal flow of bile for any substantial period of time. The colic attack may reappear at intervals. If, however, the impacted stone has boon passed through the duct, as occasionally happens, the symptoms will definitely disuppear, unless there arc more stones in the gall bladder. Many persons suffering with gallstones also suffer certain other disturbances such as flatulence, regurgi tation and distress after eating. treatment of gallstones Is both medical and surgical.

Contrary to the common impression, there is no known method for dissolving gall stones. In repeated attacks of gallstone colic surgical treatment is indicated. As Osier so pointedly said, "The pa tient is much safer in the hands of a surgeon than when left to nature, with the feeble assistance of drugs and mineral waters." Once the stones have been removed, the possibility of their reforming appears to be very slight. Bans Wife As Driver; Wrecks Auto Himself Albany, Ore. (U.PJ.

Following The Hounds The Harford hounds met at the club yesterday at quarter of six. A fox from the Sprouts covert carried hounds at a great pace easterly to Mr. Wing's, but went to ground after a fast burst of only about five minutes. Hounds were then taken on the Iron Bridge covert at Verdant Valley, A fox went away northerly over Major Drennan's great grazing meadows, bordering the Little Gunpowder, past Mr. Lurman Stewart's and on to the Sixty-Acre Woods, where he went to earth.

M. OF BALTIMORE 1206 Lexington Building Phone Cslvtrt 1641 "flAD GIRL," if you'll pardon Is good. In fact, she's very good. This picture, at the New Theater, takes a situation much, much older than that gravy atain on your brown vest and so juggles it that you are hardly aware of what movie magic Is being performed before your very eyes. If you share the low opinion we hold of the Vina Delmar novel, please don't let it keep you from seeing the movie adapted from it.

A cast of three, a director and an excellent adapter make of the flabby, foolish original a mere springboard from which to jump into an excellent little movie of considerable charm. The whole picture centers around James Dunn, of whom, no doubt, you have heard. This marks his movie debut and what a debut! It's the sort of screen debut actors pray for each night just before they jump inside the covers. It's a part in a million. And he rises to it like a veteran.

Without Dunn, "Bad Girl" would be just another movie. With him. it's something that provokes chuckles, tears, laughs, sighs and everything else that a nice little movie hopes to provoke. Some thing tells us that we and you, too are going to see a lot of Master Dunn, and in the very near future at that! The lad is due for a boom. HE looks lika a combination of Matt Moore and Frank Fay, with a dash of George K.

Arthur thrown In for good measure. He has an infectious smile and a natural, easy way of handling himself. He's the sort of fellow who waited on you when you stopped at the radio store this morn- rig. You are liable to bump into him anywhere. Sally Eilers, who has never done anything in particular in the past to listinguish herself, does very nicely as the girl who gets married and thus avoids the dreaded pointing of fingers.

Miss Eilers is well cast as the shopgirl who likes fringes on the shades of floor lamps and probably wears a visor when she goes on an auto ride. Our own Minna Gombell is the third of the three characters figuring in this story and she's a sharp-tongued young lady. Dunn is her particular victim, and she never lets down so far as he is concerned. We imagine that the film future also will bring more of Miss Gorabell. PRANK BORZAGE directed Edwin Burke's excellent adaptation and between them they did a fine job.

The prize-fight sequence struck us as a bit absurd, but we won't hold that against the general excellence of the film. The story tells of the meeting, court- AMUSEMENTS I HHUWABI) II1AMK.UM ill S) Amertra'a DiCisk'JS RAi CRAWFORD .4 tfl 1 With aanrii MONItOE OWSr.KY NRM, HAMII.TOV PA1 LINK FltKDKKICK F.XTKA1 3rd UII MAM TII.IIKN Tennta lmra Onn r.JM I OU "7 I'opular Demand SOUAW MAN WAR.NEIV BAXTER.
