A moment of ecstasy —then a lifetime of despair! A storv film emphasising the seriousness of general disease, "Damaged Goods" dares to throw the searchlight of truth on to-day's greatest menace to health and happiness. Yet at the same time it cannot be stressed too strongly nor too often that here is I no mere health lecture, but a stirring drama of this modern age— the story of five people whose whole future was threatened by a youthful indiscretion on the part of one. on the eve of his marriage, to a second of the group. Do not confuse this film with "Damaged Lives" or "Damaged Goods"—the silent films of some years ago. This new film is based on actual facts.
