POETRY
SAY IF TO HIS FACE.

If thou hast a word of censure. For some wrong a man has done Do not risk the sad adventure, Whispering to some other one
 Say it to his face. If you hear a flying rumor, Standering a faithful friend, Do not manifest i'll h1mor, And the story further vend-
 Say it to his face. If a nefghbor has been busy, Circulating some old tale, If you would ''Keep up with Ehzz1e,'' Let your better sense prevail
 Say it to his face. Do not get in some dark corner, Or behind a bedroom door, And, like little Johnny Eorner, At some culprit make roar
 Say 1t to his face. Back of lips of cold deceit; Do not niggle, do not maggie; Never round the old bush beat
 Say it to his face. Honesty Is always loyal Kindn ess never can offend; Be yG open hearted, royal, To your foe as well as friend
 Say it to his face.

BREED THEATRE
Crane Wilbur, Star in Horsley Mutual Master Picture, 'The Love Liar," Feature for Today and Thursday.

During his career as a motion pie ture player Crane Wilbur has featUr- ed in many photoplays of great pre- tentiOusuess, but it is quite probable that not one of these compares in general lavishness and in scope for the st with "The Love Liar" five Part N ,tual Master Picture which is the leature at the Breed theatre for today and Thursday.
 "The Love Liar" is the biggest pro IIction coming from the HorsIey stu dios An idea of it's sumptu0usness may be readily gleaned from the in formation that the seCtings used in in this picture required ten weeks time to build. Representations are made of richly furnished homes CT the uI- tra wealthy and of the fashionable re- sorts they frequent, lending 9 fine background to the mar 9,iOu of the drama. The story tells of the num- erous love affairs of c popular musi- elan whose theory of life is dwarfed by his own appreciation of himself The folly of such an existence is clearly shown in an interesting and foTceful manner.
 Completing the bill for today and Thursday the Breed will also present the Mutual Weekly, showing the atest news. and The TorIlla," a scream tuEly funny comedy.
