Plaza's Great Eeature

After playing to the biggest busi- ness that ever came to the Plaza in q single day. Michael Strogoff." the great drama Of romance and adven- ture in the land Of the Czar. in which Jacob r. Adler plays the lead is likely to break another record at mana ger Cavanees' popular theater again to- day. Although many notable films have been shown at the Plaza there never has been one which has called forth such universal commendation as this one.
 As everybody who is interested in the theater knows Jacob P Adler is not only the greatest Jewish actor of his day, but one of the greatest tra- gedians before the public today. For many years he has played to crowds Of tremendous proportions on the East Side of New York. crowds that came not only from his own neighborhood, but from all over the great city. and from all over the surrounding coun- try. Apparently his great popularity Is to be duplicated in the movies
 Michael Strogoff' will be shown for the last time today.

"Tne Goddess"

If the reviews and critical comment 'of newspapers and moving picture magazines mean anything the new serial picture, The Goddess" which has been appearing at several the aters in Los Angeles, San Francisco and the large eastern cities for the past few weeks is probably the most interesting production of it's kind that ever has been filmed.
 It is being released by the Vita graph company and has been staged with all the care and attention to detail that have made pictures pro duced by this company famous. The most noted movie critics of the day have pronounced it the ideal serial" and in many cases it has doubled the attendance at theaters where it is being shown.
 Following out their policy to make the pictures at Riverside park one of the really big features of the place. the management has arranged to show The Goddess there every Sunday night bginning next Sunday. This will be in addition to the regu- lar program, making a six-reel pro gram every Sunday evening. The commencement Of other important film features will be made very shortly.

MARY P|CKFORD HERE
 IN HER GREATEST FILM

At the Arizona theatre tonight. Mary Pickford, the most popular of all screen artists, will be seen in the greatest film in which she has ever appeared, Tess of the storm Country" It is an undis- puted fact that Miss Pockfird is the greatest drawing card in the long list of movie stars. There is q Winsome- ness and charm in her work which is universal in it's appeal and it is in such pictures as this that she appears to best advantage
 There is no use in telling the story of Tess" for it has been shown here before; but only a comparatively few people were able to see the picture at that time. and there has probably nev- CT been a picture which has called forth so many requests for repeat as this one. Not only is it a wonder ful portrayal of the consummate art of this splendid little actress; but the story is delightful and of compelling interest
 It would be well to bear in mind that this film will be shown tonight and to- morrow night only and these will be the last opportunities for Phoenix to see Mary PicNford in her greatest mas terpieoe'

"A Fool There Was"

One of the strongest pictures shown here this season is an adaptation from Rudyard Kipling's The Yam Lamara theater under the name of "A Fool There Was" It is a film version of the play by that name which was used as a starring vehicle by Robert Hiliard: but in the picture it is the woman who is the star. The part of the vampire woman is played by Theda Bara. whose previous ap- ter have made her pronounced ia vorite and she is seen in this play to even better advantage.
 The picture is staged with all the c--ce,lent attributes which one is ac- customed to look for in a Fox pro- duction, and while it's theme is nat urally unpleasant. it is of absorbing interest. The story tells of an American politician who falls under the spell of the Vampre. She lures him away from his patriotic mission, ruins his prospects, saps his man hood an dvitalty. drives off his friends, and sends him home wreck of his former self, and he dies from the effects of his dissipation It is a weird and wonderful picture that es- tablishes the reputation of Theda Bara as a film artist of the highest class.
 The picture will be shown again today, tomorrow and Wednesday.

There was another bloody haudprint on the floor of the kitchen, where he either fell or stopped.

A Canadian officer, writing from the front to friend in St. Gather ines, says:
 All this misery and waste could have been aVerted if we could have thrown one million men into France and Belgium at the commencement of the war, because Germany would not have taken the risk, but anyone who advocated national training in Eng land or canada was looked on as a scaremonger and a fool"
 May the United States avoid hav- ing to reproach itself a year or two hence with the thought that similar misery and waste might have been avoided by it if it had made ade- quate defensive preparation.-Buf Express.
