ARE PARENTS PEOPLE ?

What a great problem-parents oftpn become for the children, especially in the case of an only son and daughte", has been discovered by. Betty Bronson in her latest picture, “Are Parents People ?” . in which she is ■ featured with Adolphe Menjou and Florenbe Vidor. And in it her parents -are the worry, of her yodng life. They quarrel so much over* trivial matters—incompatibility of natures,- they contend—that they obtain a divorce, leaving Betty in a girls' select finishing school when she refuses, to choose between them. Betty’s room-mate is a giddy little girl, who: has become infatuated with Maurice Mantsfleld, a motion picture actor, through “fan” correspondence. The girl typewrites a letter to her “ideal” and leaves it unsigned on her table with a numberof his photbgr.aphs. The next day she is injured, and Betty hides the tell-tale evidence in her own bureau. This romance is, to be shown tonight and also to-morrow nieht. COCAINE. . The all-British production “Cocaine,” -featuring Hilda Bayley and Flora Le-Breton, will\ilso be screened this evening, and to-morrow night. “Cocaine” fe a gripping story of London's night life apd the drug traffic. It is. a revelation in acting, and abounds with thrills from. the first tael to. the end. -
