Battle Cry Of Peace
Rings Out Strong for
Better Defense Plans

Frequent applause from large audiences
punctuated the opening exhibitions OF
The Battle Cry of Peace" the spectacu-
lar photoplay masterpiece. which yester-
day began a two weeks run at the Boyd.
IL is a gigantic presentation Of America s
unpreparedness against war, and empha-
sizes the doctrine that to insure lasting
peace with honor the nation should be-
come powerful enough on land and sea
to be thoroughly respected by all foreign
powers. The Christmas audiences seemed
greatly impressed by the presentation.
Starting with perturbation Of
America, the Land Of Peace and Plenty.
the prologue furnishes much informa-
tional matter by skillful photography.
Then films of Hiram Maxim. the invent
i've genius, show him lecturing on DE
fenseless America" and foreign spies are
pictured as engineering peace meetings.
while the navy of the enemy is preparing
to lombard NV York and land an invad-
ing army In the midst of a comical
peace meeting, which ends in a fist fight,
the invasion begins. Cleverly made mo-
ton pictures appear to show the actual
defeat and humiliation OF the United
States fleet; then New York is RACED and
burned, pictures depicting the famous
skyscraper line crumbling in flames. A
horde of triumphant enemy soldiers march
down the streets. slaughtering the I'M
prepared and abusing the women.
Throughout the film portrayal. an in
genious plot adds realism and horror.
Pictures are shown of Secretary of War
Garrison, DR.. Lyman Abbott. Major Cen
eral Leonard Wood, Ex-President Roose-
welt, Admiral Dewey and other notables.
One of the most effective details COM
pares by diagrams the population and
armed forces, and the wealth and armed
forces, of the principal powers. The
theater orchestra furnishes appropriate
music and the ushers and usherettes are
clad in militia and liberty costumes. The
players in the dramatic scenes are cap
able, and the production is a marvel
from Photographic standpoint.

Midnight Maidens"
Give Gayety Patrons
Merry Christmas Fun

Folks who saw the new show at the
Gayety last night enjoyed an especially
Merry Christmas. for the "Midnight
Maidens" are certainly merry COM
pany. and their happiness Is contagious.
II is big. long show. too. with some
thing doing every minute. plenty OF
laughs. lively dancing and pleasing
songs.
Among the special features Of the show
are three clever male comedians. a regu-
lar uproar OF a woman clown. a whole
squad OF good male voices. besides a
company well up to the standard in all
other respects. The standing-room-oniy
audience last evening found particular
enjoyment in the songs and antics of
Jolly" John Larkins who seems unusu-
ally endowed with blackface comedy
cleverness. He was recalled many times
in his Liza" song number, the clog
dancing chorus of which was also very
popular. In speciality he was also
given well-deserved big hand" Pete
Curley and Frank Lynch create continu-
Gus fun as Irish comics. Rose Kessner,
the female clown, has a novel brand OF
screams to offer and her dancing also
takes well. Harvey Brooks and Billy
Walsh have pleasing tenor voices, used
to good effect I'm the two-act travesty.
while Bob calvert. Tony Shane and Ed
Bisland win much applause with their
melody and foot work In the clio.
Norma Bell, popular last year. is Just
as much so this season with new songs,
which she sings well. Jean Leonard is a
winning soubrette. and three of the
chorus girls. the Boulowa girls, Jump
into spotlight favor in the olio with a
sensational tight wire act. The pony"
on the left end attracts special attention
throughout the show with her gingery
work. The drum and flag finale OF the
first act almost raises the roof with en-
thusiasm for President Wilson and Old
Glory. Even the most faded Of burlesaue
patrons find the finale of the second act
worth waiting for. A rural comedy play
iet In the olio also proves popular.
