And Won derland, the radio and the movies and the Eighteenth Amendment pointing a long, skinny finger to the contrary, is still peopled with lots of folks who are not ashamed of their address. We found that out only yesterday in the Rlvoli Theater, for when Peter made his tearful plea to the audience to dup that Tinker Bell would know- that people sttil believed in fairies, the audience clapped louder than ever we had heard it clap before. And so, It is to be supposed, peoplo do believe In falrU-s and "Peter Pan." now showing on tho screens" of both the Rlvoli and Rlulto thea ters, should most certainly strength en that belief.

We had promised ourself hot to go traipsing off Into an ecstatic de lirium of superlatives no matter how brilliantly Willis Goldbeck had adapted this Barrie fantasy to the screen, or how spendlnly Herbert Brenon had directed It, or with what indescribable charms little Betty Bronson had endowed Peter himself. But they make It hard for us not to fling all restraint to the winds and tell you what a wonder ful picture Pan" really Is. To make use 'of the Book of Sim iles which now lies hidden in the bottom of this desk, the new "Peter Pan" Is refreshing like a cool wind blowing around oiirorner on an August night. It takesayour Imagination for a lazy flight through the clouds as If It were fastened to the wing of a starling flying out to sea nt sunset. The screen's "PotecFan" Is fascinating as the stories you used to hear on your mother's kneo at candle-llghtlng time.

There! that, we Imagine, Is being sensibly re strained' and yet It ought to give you some Idea ot how satisfactorily Barrie's classic has been conceived In the studios. It Is better, we think, than the stage "Peter" now being presented at the Knickerbocker. Bettv Bronson. playing her first really Important role in the films, leaves no doubt concerning Sir lir-rle's good Judgment In chooslmj her to play Peter. She is an entrancing little will-o'-the-wisp a personification of all the Joys and happy moments of the long agoou'd like to recall, but never can.

It Is a plcturlzatlon of Evelyn Campbell's novel, "Wilderness," from which Robert Z.

Leonard has produced his tale of woe In celluloid, Loves Wilderness, ana in wnicu the beautiful Corinne Urltfltn may now be seen In the leading feminine role. Miss Griffith ana we Know now that she la tho loveliest edition of femininity on the screen Is Introduced as Linda Lou Heath of the Louisiana Heaths, who falls in love with the gallant David Tennanl (Holmes Herbert) only to run otT with the romantic Paul L'Estrange (Ian Keith), who takes her to his lonely ranch In far-away Canada, There he deserts Poor Linda Lou to sail oft with a company of brigands on a smuggling venture. Later David Tennant comes back Into Linda's life and, believing Paul to be dead, she marries him. usual complications which must arise In a drama ot sueh triangular proportions are neatly Ironed out in the end and "Loves wilderness' becomes a simple little truck gar den with even rows of familiar products of the Alms. Miss Campbell's novel has been for the most part faithfully adapted to pictures.

There are few signs of the unrestraint which usually accompanies such transplantations from literary fields. The direction of Robert Z. Leonard is reflected In the smoothness ot the continuity and the apparent plausibility of even Miss Campbell's most Implausible moments In the book. As Linda Lou, Cortnne Griffith is seen In her finest characterization since "Black Oxen." It begins to appear more and more that she Is one of the very few finished actresses the screen can boast. Ian and Holmes Herbert are satisfactory In their roles and Emily Fltzroy has a few triumphant moments In her portrayal of Mathilda Heath.

Wo found "Love's Wilderness" to be a most satisfactory screening. Conspicuous on the program ot divertissements at the Strand this week are the Rltz Male Quartet, Miss Kstelle. Carey, Carlo F'crretti and Mile. Francelll with her corps of ballet dancers. The list Includes five musical presentations ranging from operatic arias to once favorite songs of old New York.

The latter is most enjoyable, being an Interesting medley of familiar tunes that the hurdy-gurdies used to play and our mothers used to hum In their kitchens. The Rltz Quartet sings Bollard's composition, "Winter," and Miss Carey returns In a request number, "Song of Songs," which was most favorably received.

In making the presentation of the Wilson Medal to Viscount Cecil, which carries an award of Norman H. Davis said, in part: "To Woodrow Wilson must be given the chief credit, for the organized system of International cooperation and to Lord Cecil that of collaborating effertivIy with hint In Its creation and of developing 11 and making It work. Many men from different countries have contributed to tho general causo of world peace and ito the settlement of post-war problems. American citizens have, 1 am proud to say, rendered notable services, some of the most recent of which have been in connection with the rehabilitation of Central Europe. disarmament and outlawry of war and German reparations." In his reply, Viscount Cecil declared that through the operation of the League of Nations will the world find the greatest assurance or international peace.

International Anarchy. "International anarchy," he naid "diversified by war, was, broadly speaking, the pre-war system. No one can doubt the evil or tnat state of things. It was portentous, menacing to civilization Itself. Its danger had been dotnonstratcd to all but the blindest by the World War, and It was obvious that If It was to be cured or even mitigated some new conception of International relations, rome Insistence on the real unity ol mankind, must be pressed upon the world.

Nor was the success of such an enterprise so nopeiess as some may think it at first, for, after all. the desire for unity, for corporate life is ode of the strongest of hu man Instincts, as strong as tho op- poslte Instinct of competition.
