It is not to be wondered ai ' therefore that this master Goldwyn film, produced from the story of Basil King, caused such a stir among New York dramatic crities during a recent run at the Astor Theatre, "Earthbound," which comes to the Regent theatre for two days, begin- ning Monday, has a plot that bare as no other film production ever - has done, a man's struggle against a woman's seductive charms; his fut- le efforts ito resist; the vengeance of his closest friend, whose confi- dence he had 'betrayed by robbing him of his wife, and finally his pun ishment, so drastic as to carry the story of the play even beyond this life before his regeneration is achieved. Notwithstanding the much Lalk ed of depression in trade the SAL- ADA Tea Company had an increase in 1921 of Two Million and*® one third, making their total output over cleven million five hundred and nine- ty-six thousand pounds. If these packets were all placed in line, end touching end, they would stretch for two thousand one hundred and nine. ty-six miles. 121-a lays| BLAIR REMANDED FOR EIGHT DAYS William J.
