THE WEEKS ATTRACTIONS

Of the picture.
 Following this will be local picture of more than passing interest Ii will recall the days when the Fielding pie lures stood patrons in line for hours to get seats at another local house The offering is styled The Desert Rat" and is the last picture that Romaine Fielding made before he shook the dust of Phoenix from his feet It is a dra- matic story of man who had an un- faithful wife and brings into the pie ture many of Phoenix best known cit izens including Sunshine" Dr. Lowe, Chief Brisbois and others.
 The Fielding picture will be fol- lowed by The Overcoat" without question the most gripping story of the month in picture circles This story ran in Young's magazine in February and was voted at the time the biggest kind of a hit. It might have been done, critics say, into a novel with but little effort on the part of the writer. It deals with a girl of the streets who is not so hard as she looks. She picks up a man at night in cafe and finds in him an ex-convict who was once a society favorte. This painted girl of the street takes him to her home and there he starts anew, to become one of the most useful or citizens. It Is not the story alone, but the splendid hu- man twist the writer has given The Overcoat" that makes 1t the real value. The life of these two derelicts as they become dear to each other and 1 the change that takes place as the girl ! discards silks and paint for the wash l tub and the baby clothes she makes, is | as pretty a picture as was ever con
 ceived by the fiction builder. "The | Overcoat' will do to keep in mind.

THE EVIL THEREOF"
 AT THE LAMARA

AT extraordinarily constructed end exceptionally human drama is The Evil Thereof" produced by the Fa- nous Players Film company from the scenario of Charming Pollock and Rennpl2 Wolf. and composing he main attraction next week at Lamara on the Paramount Program.
 The plot relates in a thoroughly un- usual manner the sinful pleasures of the idle rich and the heart breaking harGships cf the over-worked poor. The story is transferred from man. sion to hovel in q truthful depic
 ton of the respective classes that enter into the exposition of the plot. Among the players Of the excellent cast gathered to interpret the dy- mamie story appear Grace Valentine, Crauford Kent. Frank Losee and Henry Iallam Robert G. Vignola. whose direction has won enthusiastic commendatioD. is responsible for this unusul photo -drmatic achievement.
 t'eAe Evil Thereof is a strong dra matic indictment against the mad iove of money and the evils that re- suit from |, go characteristic of the modern American life. Through the instrumentality of a pretty, but reck less girl Marie the authors present drama of folly ard repentance. re-
 plete with stirring action and sympa- thetic episodes.
 Tie unusual nature of the subject
 is indicated by the fact that the drama is composed of three little
 plays, all contributing to and culmi-
 lating in the overwhelming finale. in
 which Marie revenges herself upon the man Who has ruined her. and nss left a wake in his path of sor- , TOW and desolation. Each Of these little dramas is complete in itself, yet is enthusiastically linked with the others. and with the underlying. pri- mary drama that ferns the basis for the extraordinary plot. One tells
 the Eitiful story of a happy old cou- pie whc have saved a very little sum of money for the rainy day The old man leaves his wife and gees to his work While crossing the street he IS feHed bv q car and severely injured The claim agent of the railway line calls at the old couples home, where | She old man is lying at deaths door and skillfully induces the guileless woman to accept a hundred dollars i in navraeut for her husbands in- { iury The other episodes are of an ! emnlly sympathetic nature, and also 1 involve hundred dollar bills. which ! eventually find their way to the pock- | cts of a certain broker, who is EiV- ! ing q gay party to some friends, and i who arranges to place a hundred dol | lar bill ill q souvenir for each lady ! among his guests.
