"May we go in to sec, Uncle Frank?" Phillips asked in the sweetly ingratinting tones she had assumed for the moment.

A look of bewilderment took possession of Mamie Switzer's as Phillipa turned countenance hurriedly toward the alcove that had been "Uncle Frank's" one spot on earth for so many years.

Dull anger replaced the bewil derment as she heard Phillipa cooing to the crippled man. Un- cle Frank indeed! The hussy hadn't called him that in ages; not since she'd grown up and got fine ideas.

Her indignation reached its peak working together several houn Aisn took her when she saw Phillipa band

"I'm sorry not to let you get your out breath before rushing you again," Phillipa said to Alan, when she turned up the lights: "but now that you know I'm safely home, I'll have to say good night to you:"

CINEMA NOTES.

TWO THEATRES BUILT FOR RICHMAN PICTURE.

When a theatre has a stage in- side it, that's not news. But when a stage has a theatre in its in- nards, that's news. And when there are two theatres inside one stage-that's a Page One line.

Edward Sloman directed "Put- tin' on the Ritz" from an original story by John W. Consideine, Jr., dialogued by William K. Wells.

Lewis Stone, the man who made those marvellous cameos of satiré finesse, "The Wedding and Circle," and "Helen of Troy." is cast in what he himself believed the best role of his film career in Paramount's "The Patriot" which the Majestic is now shown at Theatre, Kowloon, for a limited engagement.
