He had walloped the Prince of Moldavia, who, with several other rufflians, had tried to do harm to a little actress. That got him in trouble and he was forced to impersonate the prince himself and go to Wallachia and win that kingdom's princess, who could be won only by a man who proved his worth in a kind of one-night companionate marriage. If he did not prove his worth tht princess would scorn him and he would find himself very soon after thoroughly and subtly murdered. The Cross Mary Lawlor in the sprightly I Theater.

The whistling wind Tugs at the drooping branches savagely, And mournfully wails through the bare And lifeless trees, eager to find One last green leaf, and silently To creep upon it, unaware.

To Open Door on Nov. 24 The new 5.000-seat Brooklyn Paramount Theater at Flatbush ave. extension and De Kalb ave. will open on Saturday, Nov. 24, according to an announcement made today by Sam Katz, president of Publix Theaters.

The theater, it is declared, will be one of the national leaders of the de luxe division of the Publix chain of showplaces. Mr. Katz intimates that the new Brooklyn theater will be a national institution, with all of the resources of the company behind it, to help make It so. "It will not be merely another fine theater," Mr. Katz told newspaper men today in making the announce ment.

"It will represent the climax of all our experience in building and operating nearly 300 of the world's finest theaters. The Brooklyn Paramount has everything in it for the luxury and convenience of theater goers that any other modern theater has, plus the added advantage, since it is the newest, of additional months experimentation with newly discovered scientific building principles and decorative beauties."

Telephone numbers haven't hpmin to lose their kick, but the quantity has already become negligible.

Of two blondes who crossed our path last evening, only om elicited the adjective swell. We didn't even want to know that one's address. Now that we are twenty-nine, we shall undoubtedly have to behave with great mm upturning decorum, to one who is used to considerable whoopee-ing on the hoof, this will, of course, come nara. Ana yet there will ta the twinge of ageing arteries to serve as a constant reminder. At twpntv.

I eight we had refused even to consider learning the Black Bottom. The Varsity Drag is no fit subject for senility. Taking inventory, which we always do upon the occasion of our birthday, we find: A vagrant gray hair or two in a thatch that, fortunately, hasn't appreciably begun to thin as yet: a waning interest in blondes and brunettes Well, in some blondes and brunettes: a marked inclination to sit and watch the river from our windows, and a pronounced yearning to go places; an extreme distaste for night clubs, and night-club press agents who inviteyea, even urge us to attend, and then allow us to foot our own check; three friends, whom we're sure might even loan us money, if necessary; a total lack of interest in sex dramas; pink chewing nm; pink ones en.vwhere but at Nick's, and cauliflower, which we have come to loathe; two chapters of a book that we began inditing seven months ago; a strong determination to go in for plenty of sleep; less than ilenty whoopee parties and no literary fests whatever for the coming year, and no s'ou'jhin1? off in our affe1on and respect for ihocolate cake. That we have become a little ireaky, possibly a little more Mr. Kovt's caricature of us on the Sunday Mag, is whollv beyond our control.

In all, we find ourselves fairly fortunate, our ever-increasing "ears to the contrary and notwithstanding. Chester (Red) No'an, whoe birthday also falls on Oct. 3, and who was born on the same day that your own boy Rian was, is far less fortunate. Today, Chester lies natiently in the Brooklyn Hospital. Pneumonia comes to heroes and cowards alike.

It was on Labor Day that Chester, who can't swim himself, dove into the Long Beach ocean after a lady who couldn't swim either. Life guards rescued both of them. Since then, his address has been the Brooklyn Hospital. There was no birthday party yesterday. Instead, we took our joint birthday cake over to Chester's bedside, and we puffed at the candles together.

The thing got us to thinking. You folks out front write regularly and generously, to a columnist who is in the very pink of health. of course you know what we're driving at. A card would be swell. Suppose he doesn't know you.

A hospital is a messy place for introductions. Right now. a boatload of mail would be a boat-load of cheer to one who, really customers, is one sick lad. He'll knock our block off for the suggestion when he's better, but we'll take our chances, if you will. Thanks, thanx and thanques.

A mouay mob of delivery bovs, taxi drivers and the like cornered the killer in a ground floor apartment.

Inasmuch as he was armed, and active with the gun, as it were, it wasn't possible to get very close to him. An augmented mob in the street watched the proceedings, and yelled prodigiously for a cop. A few observers blew police whistles. Eventually, a taxi driver extricated himself from the mob, hopped into his cab, and went away from there. Shortly after he returned with a cop whom he had picked up somewhere along the line.

Here is a kind of cheap romance, romance with a touch of dirt, a great deal of posturing and a little obvious comedy. Childish stuff but fairly saleable.

Having beaten up the Prince of Moldavia and three companions to save the little actress to whom he had taken a liking, the bold actor found himself arrested and faced with the necessity of going to the salt mines for 20 years or so for his daring. Luckily "the prince was no good at all and his mother, the queen, a sneering queen, played by Beatrice Terry, who cannot help sneering no matter how good a humor she may be supposed to be in at the moment, saw the necessity of his marrying the princess of the kingdom next door. A war had to be averted or Moldavia would be wiped out bv Serbia. So the actor, who looked like the prince and was a nicer type, was forced to go to Wallachia, make love to the princess there, win her, renounce her and let the real prince marry her. She fell really in love with the impostor, though, and he with her.

so their hearts were pretty nearly broken when he told her that he was a fake. It seems that they had proved that heaven had meant them for each other by sleeping together. She learned the morning after of his imposture. It was too late. If she refused to marry the prince she thought he was, the newspapers would get it and all the world would know that Moldavia had made a fool of her kingdom.

Also, her actor-lover would be put to death. So she said she would marry the depraved prince he was pretending to be. And she was willing to keep her word right up until the last minute. Fortunately, however, the real prince did not want her any more tha she wanted him. He ran away to America.

And the false prince took his place and married the girl. That made every- The Cinema By MARTIN DICKSTEIN 1 "Four Devilt," the Season's First Movie Triumph, Comes to the Gaiety.

MURNAU, the brilliant di- rector of "The Last Laugh" and, more recently, "Faust" and "Sunrise," lias done it again In "Four Devils," which was delivered to an impressed first audience at the Gaiety Theater last night. For, certainly, this latest Fox production must go down in the record as one of the most important motion pictures which the past few years have brought.

Plainly, it is Just about the finest example of the celluloid art which the town can offer at the moment. An unpretentious in fact, a rather lamiliar story of circus life on the Continent, it is the superb direction of the masterly Murnau which raises the film to a high level of distinction. One forgets its bare tale of passion and unrequited love for the sheer magnificence of its handling. Such stimulating staging of a motion picture has not been revealed since well, since Murnau gave us "The Last Laugh." Here, if you must know, is the story of four parentless circus children win have been reared in the care of a kindly old clown. They are Charles and Adolf and Marion and Louise.

Sons and daughters of acrobats, they become acrobats. As "The Four Devils" they attain fame in the Cirque Olympia in Paris. And then a day when The Lady comes to marvel at Charles' daring on the flying trapezes. She determines to have him for She is irresistible. It goes on that way.

Charles has no mind for his work. One morning at rehearsal he misses and goes crashing into the net. Finally, it is Marion, who has loved her acrobatic partner since childhood, who falls. That wa: the night when they weren't using the net. And Charles goes back to her.

a chastened acrobat. There have been better stories, per haps. But here, somehow, it doesn't matter very much. Murnau has given the thing a visual importance that is never to be denied. There are scenes of a circus troupe in action which are as eye-filling as anything the screen has offered.

The whole pulsating spirit of the big tent show has been captured by the camera. You actually feel that you are one of the spectators sitting tense, galvanised, in the arena. Yes, you hear it. the spirited playing of the band, the blasts of the ringmaster's whistle and the applause of the crowd through the Movietone This is. in fact, something of a triumph for synchronization, since the accompanying noises are actually realistic.

What is more, they are really effective. I am willing to believe that the distinguished acting in "Four Devils" is altj due in no small part to the exacting supervision of Murnau. There are Janet Gaynor in the role of the patient Marion, and Charles lforton as the virile and subsequently jlist In "Upe-a-Daiey," icheduled to arrivm at the Shubert Theater next Monday evening.

And yet silly plays often have It. Ian Keith, who used to be on the stage and went into the movies, plays both the prince and the atcor who impersonates him. As the prince, he parts his hair in the middle and acts like John Baxrymore. As the actor, he opens the front of his shirt part of the time and acts like the most he of he-men. His eyes shine constantly like the sky's brightest stars and he is quick and energetic.

He is a very good-looking young man and an execrable actor. The princess does better. The princess, in fact, is the most believable member of the cast, though it is impossible to believe what the author, C. Stafford Dickens, an actor himself, says about her. The princess is Jessie Royce Landis.

She is calm and serene and sensible, a capable actress. Hubert Druce plays a king and Char lotte Granville a queen, both of Wal lachia. They are amusing in the play wright's elementary way. Ivan Simpson plays a bad actor and Lee Baker a chancellor Chancellor of Moldavia. You have no idea how unctious Mr.

Baker is. His unction is fullv a foot thick. It is very, very silly. ASTING no time, Miss Sylvia Lent presented herself at the Town Hall last evening, the first of familiar violinists to play this season. Looking younger and more immature than when she made her debut in Aeolian Hall some years ago, sne contrasted to her appearance a remarkable musical poise.

On the occasion of her debut Miss Lent so licited and obtained admiration for the capacities of one so young, and if we can no longer dutifully regard her as a prodigy, we may still applaud in her a talent above the ordinary. She played last evening for little over an hour and a half. Her program began seriously with the Bach-Siloti Partita in minor. She attacked next a sonata by Guillaume Lekeu, and then (it was about devoted herself to shorter pieces: Darius Milhaud's five "Saudades do Brazil," for the fourth of which Miss Lent confessed a preference by repeating it as an encore; Lili Boulan-ger's Nocture, and music by Rimsky-Korsakow, Moussorgsky, Ravel and Sinlgaglia. Miss Lent's success was various thorughout this program.

She was happiest in its latter groups, where the character of her selections proved agreeable to the gracious but attenuated style of her playing. Niceties of intonation and bowing oblieed her to repeat Rimsky's "Fight of the Bumble Bee. and her playing of the Bou- langer Nocture was touched with distinction. She dealt somewhat tentatively with Moussorgsky's Ko-pak. which demands a lustier treatment.

Throughout the evening Mr. Bibb supplied excellent accompani ments. Novelty at Strand. As an added atraction with Warner Brothers' talking picture.

Music of the Day Maybe the Police Department is all right. Certainly the fact that Mr. Warren, who runs the outfit, is satis-fled with it, should count a couple ot votes anyway. Also, our personal contact with it has always been immensereally perfection. Those Jolly officers with whom we have come in contact have not alone been alert, but downright anticipatory.

We have but to look as though it were our intention to park, and bingo what hap pens? Out of the nowhere, comes a ribald, rapid, repeated tweeting. Seventy-nine short sharp blasts on a police whistle works havoc with even the most hardened parker. We bust out in goose-pimples, smile sheepishly and endeavor to make believe that we were only fooling anyway, and that we actually hadn't had any real idea of parking, at all, at all. Nonchalantly, we light the cigarette, as the advertisements tell us, and drive off around the block. We always drive off around the block.

Hundreds and hundreds of times we drive around the block and then, eventually, we take the car over by 1st ave. and leave it. By that time we don't care a continental whether it's there when we come back or not. Police plus-perfection has cost us more first acts than you've any idea. Traffic shall not park tonight.

appears to be their motto. Of course, it's different with hold-ups and murderers. After all, perfection is a matter of specialization. You can't expect a flock of cops successfully to divide their time between frightening women drivers who didn't notice tha', the lights changed, and catching hardened bandits, who have had more side-arms experience anyway. The D'Oller murder is not a case in point.

What got us started on this was a flock of newspaper headlines, snipped from one of the evening sheets, a day or so ago. "Three Rob Club Near Ansonia Hotel and Escape with Safe," one paper starts off; "Lone Highwayman Enters Vincent Lopez's Inn" "Trio Loot Mulberry Street Restaurant" "Queens Marauders Get $1,028 Cash in Store." Elsewhere we learn that the traffic courts are jammed with petty violators, so you see that that's all right. You couldn't expect an officer with a mouth-ful of police whistle to sneak up on even a careless bandit, unawares. A few weeks aeo we happened to be around, in the flesh, when a flock of what the Tabs call yeggs, held up a 3d ave. (Manhattan) shoe store.

In the process of goin? away from there, a policeman was shot and killed; a nervy taxi driver refused, even when a revolver was brought to bear upon him. to transport the killers to more placid scenes; one of the killers was "Ni'lijiii OnNcwYorhltarbor I ''AfTERS the unusual lirinf nodationi lor rour Tear around i'j horn, combining matchless Knurr, ft comfort end courteous ferries in Brooklyn's newest and bust ipart- merit hotel.

Why, just blots of ink that look like Homething funny! If you can make more blots of ink than you know what to do with, fold the paper over and see if they don't turn into a picture as good as "Breakfast for Two," which appears here. For the funniest Biotz each week a cash prize will be awarded. For every Blotz that is published credits will be given, to be exchanged at Aunt Jean's room, in The Eagle Building, for whatever you choose. See the full page of Blotz and read more about the Blotz Contest in next Sunday's Junior Eagle. Park.
