In this startling picture which asks a dozen burning questions, the author and director havo dared to answer with fearless thundering roplios.
Dorothy Canfield's "THE HOME MAKER" has been produced under King Buggot's direction and is splen- didly depicted by such stare as Alice Joyco, Clive Brook, George Fawcett and many others. It will bo on every- body's tongue-it will be discussed and argued, loved and hated by every man and woman who has lived, loved and hated. At every tablo, at every fireside, in every home-people will have their own opinions (each sharp. and definite and differont) of the questions and answers that you will find in "THE HOME MAKER."
You know that a picture must bo vital and big-it must be great-to do any of these things. You know what a sensation the book created-the picture is even more powerful. It is at once tonder and thundering- a veritable unleashed sonsation. You must know the laughs the tears and the joys of "THE . HOME MAKER." You can't afford to be the only one among your friends to miss it.

FRENCH POLITICAL AFFAIRS.
CURRENT PRESS COMMENT.
Paris, Jan. 11, Commenting on the work of the Socialist Congress, Le Journal re- marks that the delegates bold 3,119 mandates, of which 1,769 arc against participation in the Govern- ment, 1,309 for participation, and 44 doubtful. It is therefore cer- tain that the Socialists will refuse to participate in the Government. Le Volonte writes that the adver- saries of participation will not per mit themselves to be convinced,
certain
The Ere Nouvella regrets that
delegates representing about ten thousand Socialists are causing a check to five million Frenchmen who send the Deputies. of the Left to sit in Parliament.
The Echo de Paris says that un- animity of the Socialists exists only on one point, and that is "the suppression of the Senate."
The Oeuvre declares that it is absolutely sure that participation will not be voted, concluding that whatever may be the result, the problem remains entire.
Le Nouveau Siecle believes that, feeling the wreck of the Radicals approaching, the Socialist majority does not want to be carried along. STRONG UTTERANCES, Amongst the speeches delivered so far, Compere Morel made a violent attack on the Radicals, spying: "If you participate, you. will give illusions to the working class, deception will come, and the working forces will be driven to reaction. Your chiefs will disup-· pear in the quicksand, and their followers will turn to other parties."
