EXPIRE THEATRE

The Sign of the Cross,'' a fve-part Famous Player Paramount produce ton, featuring William F'arnu1ns will be shown at the Empire theatre today and tomorrow. sThe, Sign of the Cross. derived from the symbol which to scores of millions has for centuries borne so profound a signifl- canoe, has been filmed by the Famous Players Film Co, with an extrava- gance of scenic and spectacular eff. fects and fadthfulness to the original settings and atmosphere seldom seen in motion pictures. Everything has been done to give the most sump- tuoua and lavish production to play which lends itself admirably to spec tacular effects, and the result Is film which rivals In spIendor any. of the classical productions yet presented to the public.
 For many years the original play has fascinated the imagination and swayed the emotions of audiences throughout the civilized world as has no other drama of it's type For the most part, it gIows with Titianesque luxuriance of coloring, as befts a fearless picture of life in .@The Rome of Nero.,'
 This superb production was stdone'' in the Famous Players best style and the screen version of Wilson Barrett's sublime and immortal drama is un- doubtedIy the finest and most elabo- rate film production that has ever be- fore been shown In this city.

WAR NOW PART OF
 DAILY ROUTINE


 London, Dec. 2S.-'',Tne war has be- come merely a part of the daily rou- tine of our lives here,' writes Jan English school teacher from Ores den, Germany. She has been a resi- dent of Dresden many years, and has had no trouble either with the popu- lace of the authorities.
 There is no feeling of alarm she writes, ftsuch as we hear is prevalent in London and Paris The feeling of optimism is as strong as .evers and no native of ~Saxony has any fears of an invasion of Dresden by the Russians
 t'We see many soldiers going and coming. They are very fine and very warlike. The women of Dresden shower them with gifts of cigars, chocolate, and warm articles of cloth ing. The troops are always singing some of the old German g1ees. They have few new songs which are good. One of them, written by a private sol dier, shas caught on all Germany. The words are a bit grotesque, but fit ex- cellent1y into the roIlicking music. They go thus:
 'Fo& every Briton a kick,
 For every Russian a shot,
 For every Frenchman knock For God, for King, and Father
 land.'
 We had the spy mania here very bad for a time, and everybody sus- pected everybody else; but they have got past that now.''

WOMEN PARIS
 CHANGE THEIR GAIT

London, Dec. 2s-Paris women are changing their gait.
 Says a correspondent from the French capital:-
 'In nothing has the woman of Paris. whose silhoutte is copied all over the world, changed so much as in her walk. A short time ago she wrig- gled her way along and her anatomy appeared to be of the strangest. To- day she is gradually slipping back to her old habit of tripping, and it suits her much better Her figure is talk ing on it's old familiar lines, and the flat chest is likely to disappear with the ungracefu1 wriggle.
 When the old writers spoke of a beautiful daughter of France,' the imagination pictured something very different from the quaint little peo- pie who have grimaced the bou1evards of late years, and4it is quite probable that with the return of peace we shall see a return of the old type French woman in all. classes. And the reyi- val will benefit not only France but the world in general, for what the Frenchwornan. does today the women of all the civilized world do tomor- row.''

WOUNDED GHURKA
 RIDES ON CAPTIVE

London, Dec. 2S.-The, story of how a, wounded Ghurka obtained a com >fortable ride to camp without losing the prisoner he had captured is re- lated by an officer just returned from the front.
 tsOne night said the officer, who commands a company in a Ghurka regimnt, when our men rushed a German trench, one of the Ghurkas captured a German. There is a re- ward for bringing in prisoners alive, so the Ghurka started back to our trenches with his prisoner
 ssHe was hit in the leg while cross ing the field so he forced the Ger man to take him on his back to our lines. He came riding in on his cap tive, secured his reward, and then let himself be removed on a stretcher to the hospital"
