BREED THEATRE
Exceptional Bill of Features for Mon-
 day and Tuesday.

The Quitter, a five-part Metro won derplay, in which Lionel Barrymore is starred is the feature attraction at the Breed theatre today. In this produc- tion MT. Barrymore has the pictures que and interesting role of Happy Jack Lewis, miner of Paradise Gulch. It is easily the best role MT. Barrymore has ever essayed on the speaking stage or on the screen. He is sur rounded by strong cast including Marguerite Skirvin, new conner to the Metro program, and one of the most charming and gifted young lead ing women in the silent drama. Others in the cast include Edward Brennan, Paul Everton and Charles Prince well known members of many Broadway stage successes.
 The Metro Travelogue and a roar ing comedy entitled The Modern Her cuies completes the bill for today.
 On Monday and Tuesday the Breed will present the famous stars Francis X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne in the masterly f1ve-part photo drama, Man and His Soul, in which allegory, romance and vital, human story are deftly mingled. It is a powerful story and deals with John Conscience, who held the chair of economics at a great university. In delivering the eXhorta- tion to the graduating class he tells the young men of some of the shame ful conditions wealthy employers are imposing upon the poor and helpless class. He bids them to go forth with Conscience to guide their careers, and they will be successful in the real sense. John is discharged by the wealthy benefactors of the institu- ton for his rash utterances. A se- ries of failures and mistakes cause him to throw conscience off and begin grinding resolute uncomprising drive for wealth. Later conscience again enters his soul and the romance finds it's proper conclusion.
