DAVIS THEATRE.
A Big Four Feature Today, The BIind- ness of Virtue-Six- Reel Production With Edna Mayo and Bryant Wash burn

Another Big Four feature will be shown at the Davis the first half of this week in The Blindness of Virtue, a six-reel ESsanay production, featur- ing Edna Mayo and Bryant Washburn.
 All advanced educators have ap- proved of this photoplay for its moral teachings, although there were some of narrow mind who criticized 1t for it's frank revelation of the truths of life and love. This fact itself caused such comment that 1t drew throngs to the play, just as it will to the photoplay. A great moral problem play such as this strikes a universal chord that makes everyone discuss<its merits and draws them in great crowds to see it. In fact, it is urged that all. mothers see the show and take their daughters with them so that both may learn the lesson together. one of the pitfalls that beset her path and the other of the necessity to teach their children of the dangers that beset them.
 And the photoplay has the merit of being even more intensely interesting for it's teachings. Never for a moment was the detail of making the play thoroughly interesting to all forgotten in bringing out the moral lesson.
 Edna Mayo as Fife is shown in one of the most charming of characters. She carries out the part with an in- tense interest that makes it bubble and sparkle with life. Bryant Wash burn plays the role of her sweetheart with his customary grip on detail and his thorough understanding of charac- ter.
 An especial invitation is offered the mothers and daughters of this city to See this picture, and a wonderful les son is illustrated to young girls of the harm through ignorance. The vaude- vile for this bill is called A Tenement Filtration A beautifu1 singing 0oVaItv with a gorgeous stage setting. The Mutual War Weekly and funny com edy will complete the show Special music by the Davis concert orchestra will be played throughout the pictures Time and prices as usual
