THE BOSS" At THE
W|GWAM TOMORROW

The World Film Corporation re-
leases the five-part VIM. A. Brady
photoplay THE Boss" founded on the
play by Edward Sheldon. This was
Brady production and a very success
ful one at that, and the confidence of
the producers of the play Is also felt
by those responsible for the film. Hol.
brook Blinn repeats his impersonation
of the Boss; and Alice Brady makes
her second appearance in World Film
as his wife.
Michael Regan, THE Boss, is
well studied type-Irish by birth, and
transplanted early in youth to the Uni
ted States. Or he was of immediate
Irish descent; II matter little which.
The clear point is that Micky, after
the manner of his kind, rose to sue
cess by his wits. and at his zenith
fell in love with girl, who promised
to be his wife lin name only in ord
er to save her father from ruin. But
the girls people don't like Michael:
Tie SlII uSISell uOeS not act kindly
to him: other enemies, civil and &C.
clesiastical, are arrayed against him
and then it becomes the contest of a
boss against apparently overwhelm-
ing odds. In the end. the Boss" de-
feats his enemies and wins his wife.
Holbrook Blinn, admittedly the most
powerful actor who ever appeared be-
fore the motion picture camera. finds
In the part of Michael Regan. one
thoroughly well suited to his robusti-
Gus style.
Alice Brady is the young wife: and
she acquits herself with perfect are
and skill in a trying but sympathetic
role.

county's Prize Product-Four
Indian Babies Entered

The baby show is going to be a
bowling success. 1t may not be a ju-
dicious application of the adjective

bies, but let it be understood that we
are not using the word as a syno.
nym of bawling. We use it in its
other sense. 1t is going to be bigger
than big show and bowling is the
only word that will express it.
Ten more babies were entered to-
day. This makes a total of fifteen
and there are a hundred yet to hear
from.
There will be fat ones, thin ones,
boys and girls, some with no hair
and some with curls. There will be

be pink, all will be sweet and

terest taken in the contest, anG it is
now proposed to have a musical pro
gram after the contest. The babies
will not participate in this of course,

of our best vocal and instrumental
talent will take part.
