The number of pictures shown at the
Art Theater afternoons and evenings
this week will be large enough to pro-
long the show considerably. This place
is patronized by the best motion pic
ture clientele, because the pictures, as

the error and pack the ampitheater

peated. In justification of the failure to
please prude or two, attention is call
ed to the fact that in Sappho is found
a play that has been produced before
refined theater audiences throughout the
United States and Europe, and as
to the 'ssuggestive' features try
''Faust' and any number of other pro,
auctions which nightly occupy the
boards on the mainland.
