climax is the heroic sacrifice of Hir-
onari showing the loyalty of the Jap

the greatest of the Japanese actors,
plays the role of Toxic. and the support
ing cast is ably chosen.

MAJESTIC,

"Hell-to-Pay" Austin was the boss of
lumber camp in the northwest, and
derived his name from the fact that
when his orders were not Obeyed, that
was exactly what happened. He was
very bitter man, but at the same time
just one, and when it came time for
some one to adopt the little daughter
of the camp evangelist, who had died,
Austin stepped forward as the man.

and In many ways she softened Aus
tins nature. He does everything in his
power to make her happy, and bring
her up WE'LL One day a woman from

man. The boys send her east to school
but she becomes disguised and home
sick, and runs away. Having the ad-
dress Of the eastern woman, she goes
to her home. The remainder of the
story is worked out nicely in the pic
ture, which will be shown at the Ma
jestic on Friday.
Wars Women" which is not a wal
picture with fake battles, ETC., is a WV

of accounts which reach us, of the
WASHING u the mighty armies, IN the
daily struggle, costing the lives of
thousands of men, the destruction OF
many cities and the devasta ton of the
land. Frank keenan,, Charles French
and Enid Markey head the cast in the
production of WARS Women" which
pictures a phase of warfare scarcel,
mentioned in the reports in the daily
papers, and yet, which must be brought
to the attention Of the public. Wars

tic on Monday evening of next week.
On Wednesday Gail Kane plays a
dual role in 1.-THE Scarlet OATH Tho

AN ADVERTISEMENT OF LIQUID
BREAD"
The following tragic story Of the
"harmlessness'' of beer, a Temperance
drink" is told by the Temperance So
ciety of the Methodist Episcopal
church. 1t ought to be kept In ctrcula-
ton all over the United States until all
the people are informed of the true nat
ure of beer.
Some time ago an advertisement
stated that beer is liquid bread" and
a Temperance drink fell under the
eye Of a man who had never taken
drink in his life. He was a mechanic,
making good wages. He had wife
and two children, owned his home. and
was in every sense of the word a man
of strong character anu of worth to his
country.
The liquid Bread Temperance
drink advertisement converted him to
the use of beer. In time he introduced
it into his home.
Some months later he returned home
after an absence of three days. When
he entered the house he was peer
drunk"-soggy, stupid, brutal with the
brutality that delights In perverted
forms Of cruelty.
When he entered the living room
something angered him. 1t may nave
been the reproach he read In his wires
face. He knocked her down, went into
the bedroom where he found his two
children asleep, cut their threats, ana
when his wife, having recovered, en-
tered the door and screamed, knocked
her down again and crushed her SKULL
literally kicking out her brains.
This man declared that he had never
tasted anything but beer In his life.
There is no reason to disbelieve him.

tributed broadcast over the country In
