IMPROVEMENTS At Y. N. c. A.
Changes in Boys Entrance to Build
ina-SociaI Saturday.

Changes which are now being MADE
in the boys side Of the Y. NJ. C.. A. will
make it possible to shut off the boys
department completely from the other
side Of the building, and thus have two
separate activities going on at once.
A partition is being erected between
the boys lobby on the east side OF the
building, and the main office. Folding
doors will be placed here, so that this
part Of the lobby may be completely
shut off from the rest of the main
floor.
A new entrance is also being cut TO
the boys department from the outer
vestibule, so that the boys will not
have to enter the main office to gain
entrance to their department at all
The boys game room will be moved
upstairs to the east lobby, and the
space vacated by the game room used
as additional locker room, which is
badly needed.

were toasted, games and a swim en-
joyed. after which DR.. G. NJ. johnson

At the Strand.

"a production that proves the mo-
ton picture is an art is the way The
Lash, shown at the Strand Sunday
evening, is advertised. Marie Doro,
pretty, and a good actress, has the
leading role, and the picture is artis-
tically produced, which saves it from
being mediocre, for the story itself is
weak.
THE Lash has for its plot nothing
more than a tradition that the inhab-
itants of an island called "St. Ba'tiste',
off the coast Of Brittany, retain the
customs OF their ancestors, among
them being that any one who surren-
ders his honor is whipped with the
lash. Henriette Catenat has been pun
ished this way, and seeks revenge on
Sidonie, played by Marie Doro. Hen
riette falls in love and marries Warren
Harding, young Englishman who has
been shipwrecked. She is nearly
flashed" sbut manages to escape with
Harding to the city.
Here she is introduced into society
but her husband is lured away by a
young widow. HeaT broken, Henriette
returns to her father, and is about tC

and sets her free. Not very pleasing
story, but the truly artistic costumes
which are used both in Sthe country
scenes and in those taken in the city

Doro and her husband, Elliott Dexter

At the Casino.

Bessie Barriscale, a favorite motion
picture actress. gets a good chance to
display her dramatic powers in The
Payment" presented at the Casino Sun
day night. The story tells how Miss
Barriscale as Phyllis Page, rises from
poverty and becomes a famous minia-
ture painter, altho she gets her start
by accepting help from a crafty attor-
ney. who exacts his payment for
giving the girl money to continue her
studies.
Then. when fame and fortune have
seemingly arrived, the attorneys wife
brings the girl to her home, where she
meets the handsome young brother OF
Mrs. Reyburn. They love each other
and happiness seems to be about to
follow when Reyburn, reminds Phyllis
of her past life. He tells her that II
she marries the young man she will be
deceiving him, and that she should
remember her unworthy past. Thus she
is forced to forego true happiness when
it seemed so near.
Miss Barriscale's acting is worthy
of special mention in this production
her emotional powers being called into
play several times. William Desmond
as the young brother, has role which
just suits him.
A Triangle comedy completes the bill
