keynote speech on Wednesday, Sen
ator James aroused the great crowd
in the Coliseum to high pitch of
enthusiasm and inspired them with
high hopes of success at the polls. He
dealt with subjects that had not been
touched upon by Temporary Chair
man Glynn and paid high tribute to
President Wilson. And 1t was the
deeds of the party and the name Of
the man that appealed to delegates
and visitors and caused demonstra-
ton that lasted nineteen minutes.
The phrase that caught the crowd
refer req to President Wilson's foreign
policy.
Senator James said:
President Wilson's object is the
pre- lection of American life and Amer.
lean interests under international law
The saving OF neutral life, the freedom
OF the seas, and without orphaning a
single American child, without widow.

wrung from the most militant spirit
that ever brooded above battlefield
an acknowledgement of American
rights and an agreement to American
demands"
Applause drowned out the words Of
the speaker before he had finished
the last sentence. Immediately there
were cries from all parts of the hall
Repeat It! Tell it over again
Give it to us again, Ollie"
Senator James nodded his assent
and waived his hand for silence.
Then slowly and effectively he re
peated his words, while the crowd lis
tened in dead silence. Then came q
deafening cheer, and it was repeated
over and over again in undiminishet
strength and vigor while delegates and
visitors stood up and thrilled with this
sound of 10000 voices tuned to the bat
tie OF politics.

WONDER PICTURE
 AT [|O|I THEATER

No picture could have been selected by the management of the Lion to bet ter fit the spirit of the Yuletide than that of Sunshine and Shadows" with little Marie Osbouri., which is the at traction for the two days starting at l0:30 this morning.
 It has been styled by the critics the wonder picture of the year" 4 child's picture for both the children and the grown-ups. The story deals with the same fascinating tot who created the never to be ,forgotten Mary Sun shine in the play of the same name.
 Little Sunshine has been told by her mother that good little girls cannot go to heaven with dirty faces and when she sees her first negro boy she thinks he is doomed lest she gets him to a bath tub and rubs off the black. The scene in the bath tub when she at Iempts to remove his color rivals the famous bath of the bear in her first picture.
 Here is a creation that has heart appeal not found in pictures of the common variety. The sweet little tot in her naturalness and unaffected play adds to a picture the touch needed to make it the most talked of holiday offering of the current movie dish.
 Just at this time of the year when the heart gladdens at the sight of the innocent delight of the little ones with their childish appreciation of the ef- forts made to please them there could be no offering that would have more timely screening and the management expects to remove the paper from the walls of the Lion for the two days Mary Sunshine remains in order that all may be admitted
 The ninth episode of "The Shielding Shadow" is added as a value to the program, and fine Pathe News reel of current events for the good measure

To the thousands of book readers who know the tense dramatic interest and deep emotional thrill of Harold Bell Wright's famous story of love nd adventure, The Eyes of the World" it will be welcome news that I magnificent motion picture produc- ton of tue romance in te n reels, which w. H. Clune. the maker of Ramona" and part producer of 'The Clansman" C"The Birth of Nation') has just completed, will be seen here ,t the Columbia theater Sunday Dec. 31st for days.
 The book, as is well known, has en- ioyed an enormous popularity having heen read according to the publish- CTS. by more than 4.900,000 people, but the film and musical spectacle created from it is declared to surpass the written version in every way
 The Cline Company has to it's credit many notable achievements ill hesc line. Working differently from any producers. it concentrates the en- ire energies of it's forces on one thing at a time. sparirg no expense or labor in the execution of a finished work. Clune's Ramona" which is

trough the entire three acts, there was not a line that was out of place,
 nd very Few that did not bring hearty laugh.
 The story of the comedy is woven ibout married couple who are about b be divorced but who discover that hey still love each other They de- tide to elope and spend their second honeymoon at wildwood" suburb \ storm overtakes them, however, and hey are forced to seek shelter in a Tayside inn. The girls brother, who s the lawyer in tl.e case, finds out hat the divorce has been granted hat 6ay. and he, together with .. married couple start out to overtake he runaw2ys Behind them comes the woman in the case,' who is be- ng paid to correspondent in the d. .torce suit. They all meet in the inn md many lively incidents ensue which works out with a delightful climax.
 Edna Cecil Daley, in the role o1 the wife, and Audra Alden as the married friend, both take their parts admirably. and each is a capable sup port of the other. Richard Carlyle as Harry Lindsey, the man who is Nearly MarrIed," takes his part clev- arly William Spera, who has just oined the company. coming or from he Alcazar theateri San Francisco, in the role of Prince Raniebulle of the Cherry Three Inn,' half en-costume half in American clothes delighted the audience with his quaint interpreta- iCn of a foreign prince married to q real American woman. which was es- 'aVed hv Mirza Marston who makes her first appearance, and who did splendidly.
 While every member of the cast fit admirably into bis part, it was Ray' D. Clifton. the director of the new stock, who proved to be the pro- bounced hit of the offering It was not the clever lines especially that made him go funny" but the way in which MT. Clifton spoke his lines and -hc way he acted after he said them that caused the audicrce to laugh as they did. He indeed is gifted wlth imitless number of entertaining little 'tage tricks that help so tangibly in making a good performance.
 All in all, Nearly Married" proba- blv is the most entertaining play that ias been presented in Phoenix for Numher of years, and 1t assures for he Columbia "hnmper" crowds for the remainder of this week.

 The fight on the cliff, in The Eyes of the World' between King and hut- hdge. which is the major climax of the story. is said to be one of the most thrilling things ever shown in ! theater. A musical score has been prepared for The Eyes of the World, which is cueG to the escond witll every mood of the unfolding tale, and is said to be a symphonic drama in itself,
 "The Eyes Of the World' was filmed with the active personal assist ance of the author, who not only amplified the story for the screen ard prepared the working scenario put also took part in the uay-py -uay work of interpreting his characters fo the production.
