DOROTHY DIX THINKS IDLE WIVES" ONE 0F
 BEST PICTURES EVER
Great Sociological Drama on the Boards at the Orpheum Theatre Today and Monday by the Universal People.

Dorothy Dix. the famous author, re- gently wrote a letter to Lois Weber and Phillips Smalley, photoplay pro- ducers of James 0ppenheim's novel. Idle Wives. which comes to the Orpheum theatre today and Monday.
 ''I went to see Idle Wives the other night" said Miss Dix. and enjoyed it very much indeed. It is one of the most appealing and human dramas I have ever seen, and the best exponent of the incalculable power of the nov ing picture as an infiurnnce for good The thing that got me was not the story itself. but the wonderful fram- ing you gave 1.-the discOntented hus- band and wife. the quarreliinS family with nothing to brighten their sordid lives or to give them new thought, the girl and toy on the verge pf the pre- cipice-all of whom are lifed out of themselves, saved, turned back by hay ing their danger visualized before them. by having new thoughts present ed to them by the magic reel
 ''The Bible says that salvation is without money and without price, be- lieve me, l think that the moving pie lures have cut the price of salvation down to ten cents. and that's putting it in the reach of the poorest.
 Idle Wives is a great sermon. There's no human being who won't be better for seeing it.
 Do you want to know what a bless ing a little child is in a home? Then go to see Idle Wives and look into the homes where, in the secluded nurseries, professional nurses are en- plOyed to scientifically bring up the children ro do without their parents.
 In this great picture we are made to feel the supreme necessity of ap- preciating life, and most of all the simple life, the life of sincerity and truth as opposed to the hollow mas querade, the hypocrisy in silk and saphires. that is so characteristic of the existence Of the idle rich.

MRS. VERNON CASTLE BILL AT THE EAGLE
Great International Serial, Advocating Preparedness
 in Bisbee Monday.

"PATRlA the greatest prepared
 ness photoplay serial of the Interna
 tion. with Mrs. Vernon Castle, famous
 actress and beauty in the title role
 will be shown for the first time at Eagle Theatre Monday. "Patria" has been many months in the making. and now that it is about ready for presen- tation to the public is a super-motion picture oc unrivalled artistic beauty, and epOch-making magnificence.
 "Patria' was conceived for the du- al purpose of furnishing the highest quality of photoplay entertainment possible, and of instilling into the American public the deep obligation of preparing the country against in vasion. Nothing has been left undone to accomplish these purposes. Pat ria" is a motion picture masterpiece that teaches a lesson. the far-reach ing influence of which will live foI. centuries.
 Louis Joseph Vance. one of the foremost American authors and play wrights wrote "PatTia." He has weld ed together in series of episodes story of remarkable interest bristline in every scene with that kind of ex- citement that makes one quiver witt patriotic enthusiasm. The Interna- tional has staged the production in grandeur AS "Patria" is q serial. it would be unfair to reveal the whole of the plot. But this much Of it is announced:
 Patria Channing. which character is by Mrs. Castle. is left an orphan early in life, bereft, too, of all other relatives. Her life is mould ed by painstaking guardian, who has instilled in her mind from child hood the idea of patriotism. She knows little about herself. except tha she possesses a vast fortune and tha' sine must some day take her place a the head of the great manufacturic. including vast munitioc: plants, that is part of her inheritance
 See "Patria," a really great picture
