"Reach for a Lucky instead.1 NORFOLK DOWNS, MASS. Stark, tragic, vermin-Infested, horrible war this is the subject of "All Quiet on the Western Front," the powerful picture at the MaJeErtio Theatre. Adapted from the book by the German author, Erich Maria Remarque, "All Quiet on the Western Front" is almost a prayer for universal peace. It is a drama of war as it was fought, and not as it was believed to be fought by the demagogues.

It is warfare as the men themselves knew it, and not the glorious, heroic, majestic thing of which songs were sung aad odea were written. A picture so realistic, so gripping and so honest as "All Quiet on the Western Front" can do more than a dozen peace societies to open men's eyes to the false glamour of warfare. Perhaps there those who will say that "All Quiet on the Western Front" is propaganda. If it is, it has the merit of being absolutely truthful, as any war veteran who has been at the front will be quick to admit. Not all the horroi of the constant, ear-splitting, nerve-killing noise of bombardment could be portrayed, out enough of it is in it photoplay to make a former war hero present last night declare "This is what war was." The picture opens in a schoolroom, where a class -f young boya listen to the words of th professor.

Maddened by patriotism the professor appeals to every instinct in his young men, all of them under 20, to enlist with the German army. Seven of the most promising boys rush off to the colors. They are thrilled by their desire to serve the Fatherland, and they march off to what they believe will ba glory, honor and yictory. But the boys have their eyes opened very soon to the of war. They are drilled constantly and humiliated by a German martinet, who seems to delight in his petty tyranny.

Then the boys go to the front. They learn to fight in earnest. The big battle scenes in the first half of the picture give only an indication of what such boys, must have gone through in the weary months and years. These battle scenes are terrific In their realism. Shells burst over the trenches, the guns boom, the cannon pounds at the enemy.

And then the enemy comes over the top, straight at the front line trenches held by the German schoolboys, heroes of the picture. And here one sympathizes with the enemy, who advance falterlngly against barbed wire and merciless machine guns. But the enemy get to the trenches and here the warfare grows -i GREATER Dnli Hart wars storM Park! paint a Hartwart Atom Hirtfwira Ca. E. H.

With the faces of beasts the soldiers fight each other, and stab and shoot with all the blood-lust of tigers. Then there is a retreat, a counter-attack and more death and destruction.

Lewis Milestone, director, of the film, has inserted at the right moment another Incident, to prove that while the men In battle are scarcely human, underneath the savagery Is the same kindly, pitiful nature that was theirs In the schoolroom. Paul Baumer (Lewis Ayres) kills a Frenchman as they are together in a shell hole, and then, driven almost insane by what he cannot understand, the boy sobblngly promises to make up to the man's family for what he ha done. "I'll never let your family want for anything," he cries In the ear of the grinning corpse of the man whose death he has caused. On and on goes the picture. The Germans, at first confident of victory, become discouraged and sure of defeat.

And then 'comes the big scene of the second half of the film when Baumer goes back home on leave. He is asked by his former teacher, who is addressing boys of 16, to appeal to them to Baumer can only tell them of the sordldness, the cruel indifference of warfare. The boys call him a coward and are indignant because he hasn't told them of the glories of fighting. And so he goes back to battle, only to have his pal killed. And then he.

too, meets death as he is. reaching for beauty in the form of a lovely butterfly which has perched for a moment between the lines. There is a long cast, with some remarkable characterizations.
