BREED THEATER.
Western Ways, Magnificent Lubin
 Western Feature.

Many superb western stories have been filmed, and have afterwards been featured at the Breed, but the one to- day entitled Western Ways is away ahead of them all. It tells in an anus ing way of the love affairs of a big hearted cowboy, and his effort to re- capture his sweetheart after she has responded to the lure of the city. Cor geous scenery aids materially in nak- ing this film one of great beauty, and there is sufficient comedy in it to win the hearts of all. Besides this splen- did film there is a Vitagraph feature entitled Sisters AL in which a social problem is solved. By the generous aid of two fortunate sisters the less fortunate one is benefited. Fate or Hate Destroys Its Own. thrilling Biograph story, is another drama. dealing with the humble life of the pioneers, in which spectacular ex- pIosion takes place.
