NEW ON THE SCREEN.

Sociology is to be the theme of
the picture play at the Rialto this
afternoon. The busy camera stops
at nothing. H. B. Warner is to
be the chief sociologist in THE
Market of Vain Desire" which
has been written by c. G. Sulli-
van. 1t is to be hoped that the
pictures will be more comprehen-
sible than the title. In addition
to the principal features of the
programme there will be music,
botanical studies and a series of
views of Egypt. Then there will
be a Keystone comedy" and
news pictures, which in nine pro-
grammes out of ten are the best
that the picture theatres offer.
The Strand is to show its pa
irons a wonderful new scenic
decoration by Joseph Urban in
addition to 1.-THE Feud Girl" in
which Hazel Dawn plays the lead
ing role. The scene passes in the
mountains of northern Georgia.
There will be music, a farce and
the usual fine reviews of fash
ions and the news.
Japanese tors are to be the
novelty Of "Alien Souls" which
the Broadway Theatre will have
this afternoon and for the rest Of
the week. Hayakawa, who is said
to be famous in his own country,
will be one of the interesting
Orientals to appear. Charles
Chaplin will also be on the pro-
gramme with the customary va
rieties of topical pictures. The
adored Chaplin will be seen in
1.-THE Floorwalker."
Dorothy Bernard and Stuart
Holmes are the principal actors
in "Sin5 of Men," which will be
the new picture play at the Acad-
envy Of Music this afternoon. The
theme Of this picture play is said
TO be ga doctrine of selfshness."
The Globe Theatre still offers
"Where Are My Children" in
which Tyrone Power gives q GER
tain distinction to all the pictures
in which he appears. He is by
long odds the best element Of the
popular picture play. 1t is an
nounced al an added attraction

passed by the censors.

Then there is dancing for tho
