- LIE DAYS ola IRA. AZ,

The Flying A" two part production
under this title is one of the master
pieces of modern cinematopragphy.
For accuracy in detail of costuming
and settings it is unexcelled. The
natural beauties of Santa Barbara
millionaire homes have been utilized
in this production and the subject is
in accord with the record or histOr-
ians of known reputation.
Lorimer Johnson as the author of
the scenario and the producer of the
play is deserving of much credit.
Warren Kerrigan as Decebalus. the
Prince of Dacia, renders excellent
dramatic work. The same can be
said Of George PeriOlat. who plays
Emperor TraJan, Jack Richardson,
the Perfect Of Rome. and the other
leads as given in the cast. The story
is of the period about 100 A. d. and
opens in the Garden Of Rome. In
cidents Of court intrigue preface the
appearance of the Queen Of Dacia
G1ouise Lester and other prisoners
of war. Scenes of the dungeons and
the arena during a Roman holiday
are wildly portrayed. The attack on

Pitiful Stories Come Before
Charity Organizations Here

Strangers in the city-a man, his
wife. a young child and an infant;
the man incurably III with tubercu-
losis: relatives of the man willing 10
care for the infant while the woman
goes to work but otherwise too poor
to do anything else.
II appeared advisable to the council
that the older child be boarded at the
Orphans home or some other suitable
place while the mother wOrks-the
arrangement, TO be, of course, only
temporary until the clouds break and
the sun shines again. NeighbOrs and
relatives may be able to contribute

Of the Y. NJ. G. A read record of
his expenses with homeless men call
ing at the Y. NJ. G. A. for assistance.
He told how lodging would be sup

man would respond to persuasions and
efforts 10 get To work and self-sup-
port although the common experience
was that of unwillingness to work
and Of preference for the usual
scheme of transients to get along
without working.
The conclusion followed almost ir-
resistibly from Mr.. JontZ's observa-
ton that the only right way to handle
the transient is by means of a place
which will give not only lodging but
also cleansing and above all, advice
and directions about going at once TO
places Of employment.

AT THE ORPHEUM.

The Orpheum starts off the first
half Of their anniversary week with
corking good bill. The acts furnish
clean. high class entertainment and
the program is unusually well bal
anced.
The opening act is a surprise for the
elaborate setting shows a mountain
railroad station, with the switch-tow-
er, coal cars bridges and sidings and
the audience looked at its program
twice thinking that the dramatic
sketch had been changed. But when
Dorsch and Russell came on, one
dressed as a tattered tramp and the
other as the station agent, and began
playing cleverly concealed musical in
struments. the setting was explained.
A cane was made into a flute, a Ian
tern a cornet; the coal car hid the
chimes: and a switch light was a
trombone. The music produced was
artistic and pleasing.
| Lillian Watson came second with
four brand new songs and an original
way of singing them. She has ex-
pressive eyes, an emotional face and
/ real ability as a coincidence. Her
songs, I'm Afraid" "Our Little War
at Home Sweet Home" and Il Want
10 Dance are up to the minute and
sung with a world of expression.
! The comedy dramatic sketch pre-
scented by Lottie Williams and her
three assistants is a slang classic, full
/ Og good lines and telling a nice little
story. Miss Williams has a slow, con-
vincing drawl that makes each point
count. is ideal as the slum waitress
and has good support.
Lester, the ventrilOquist, is hit on
any bill. He has an original manner,
a good line of talk and is pleasing
performer. Unlike most acts of this
kind he let's the figure do practically
all the talking and the comical ex-
preston of Frank adds humOr to
his pointed remarks The abused
way in which he says Gee. Whiz'
furnishes comedy enough for several
acts.
