His fiancee, Claire,- wants to return the ring. She is dissuaded by his sister, Mary, who knows that would spoil his life. . Claire's father says "I'm going .to send you t assist your brother-in-law on my biggest South American plantation." Three months later it is ( evident that Thorpe is in the righ place. Gratified by increased shipments and lowered costs, the Rubber King takes Claire and Mary on a cruise to visit the men. The rest of the story will be told b ythe screen, containing, as it does, the elements of a pretty romance. Beauty and brains go.seldoj'h hand and hand, but Sylvia Brehmer, the lovely young Australian girl \vho> achieved stardom on the screen loy sheer force.of personality, charm and talent and the ability to persevere, is an exceptin. In "My Husband's Other Wife," at the Maoriland on Monday, this is fully borne out, for in her steller role of Adelaide Hedlar, she shows both beauty and talent to a I marked ■ degree, in a story that possesses all the rarest, elements of perfect entertainment and interest. The viewpoint on the subject of divorce is novel and arresting, and leads to many highly dramatic situations.
