to Hold the thrilling romance of the
early Colonial days in Virginia, at the
Empire this evening, supported by
Wallace Reid and an a11-star cast. 1t
is a Paramount picture.
Miss Murray is an artist of unusual
talent, beauty and personality. Prior
to her engagement for a number of
years in the Lasky Company, Miss
Murray's time was devoted to the
speaking stage. She finally consented
to appear in a short comedy and this
was no sooner projected ON the
screen than all the leading motion pic
tIlre producers in thee ountry sought
her services, her personality and
charm being so appealing. She was
finally secured by the Lasky Company
and it is expected that her appear
ance in the photodramatic world will
create a sensation.
The production of ITO Have and to
Hold is unusual in it's magnifcance
and one of the most lavish ever made
by the Lasky Company, two large
sailing vessels being built especially
for the production, 6one of which is
wrecked at the height of a wild storm.
The photography is of the usual
Lasky excellence.
An a1l-feature program of select
Universal subjects will also be shown.
ITO Have and to Ho1d' will be fea-
tured this evening, tomorrow and Sat
urday.

LYRIC

That ever popular, ever fascinating
little star of the Lyric theatre pro-
ductions, Cecil Spooner, and her
splendid company Of players, next
week will be seen in George M Co
hams masterly play of Hnirth and nnys-
terry, "Seven Keys to BaIdpate." It
suggests a me1odrama of the good old
fashioned sort, with a. goodly supply of
Villains, an adventur ess or two, just
enough careless display of guns to
tickle the nerves of the audience, a
murderous shot, graft disclosures, a
wad of money large to make the chief
of police turn "crook," and an old
man hermit ghost who is just as
ghostly as such characters usually
are and who furnishes a lot of the
live fun of the p1ay-these supply the
chief material out of which George
M Conan has fashioned the mystery
farce. Seven Keys to Ba1dpate," from
Earl Derr Biggers' novel. Yet the
play possesses more comedy and
laughter of the George M. Conan
brand than any three others of other
Seven Keys to Ba1dpate'' fairly
sparkles with the Cohanesque bril-
1iancy of wit and writing, and Miss
Spooner will be all life as t'Myra.''

PLAZA

The days when pirate crews roamed
the seas and the black flag and its
skull and cross bones were raised to
terrorize ships bound on peaceful err
rands are faithfully reproduced in the
new Triangle Play, Daphne and the
Pfrate'' which will be shown at the
Plaza the latter half of the week. The
play takes it's name from the leading
character, played by Lillian Gish, the
golden-haired heroine of 1.-THE Birth
of a Nation" and it tells an absorbing
story of love and intrigue of the 18th
century when Louisiana was French
colony. The action takes place in the
Green Forest Of France and among
the crude cabins of the early settlers
