PLAZA THEATRE.
"THE STRANGE CASE OF CLARA DEANE» Nothing is so absorbing and so vitally compelling to man and woman than the tale of a mother's love, and when that tale is told with the pen of the master and the direction of the genius, then something great has been achieved. This greatness is achieved in "The Straj.ge Case of Clara Deane," at the Plaza Theatre. It is one of the most powerful pictures of the year, and should live for long in the minds' of those who have Been it. The story takes the audience over a Bpan of about 20 years, ana the gradual metamorphosis of the hapless Clara Deano through these- endless years of suffering is shown with all the genius of production, all the skill of advanced artistry, and all the wonderful acting of a great east, for which Paramount stands paramount.
