i Fl Zaribah shriners, who will mak, | pilgrimage to the oasis of Douglas 1 Thursday evening in order to properly 1 impress. oppress and torture certain ! unregenerate sons of Sheitan. who
 have been clamoring for the delights | of the Seventh Heaven in which al
 good shriners are supposed to be, have ] decided to make the trip. also a sort ot a 'HoWdy' affair with the aid of inen ! and women of Phoenix who would like 1 to go along.
 It will be some pilgrimage too ac- [ cording to the program just issued 1 by the Chief Dispenser of the Bull. In the first place. the good people of | Douglas are sitting up nights to ar range for the entertainment of PhOe- nicians who will visit them Friday and Saturday. Aside from the usual cere- monies attendant upon the admission of a novice to the ranks Of Shrlnedom, the Douglas bunch are known to be ar ranging some stunts for the poor vic tins that will make the perils of Al Sirat,-that hair-like bridge over which the faithful must cross to heav- en,-seem like a promenade in the moonlight in a dry town.
 The Chamber of Commerce of Doug las is on the job with program for the entertainment of Phoenicians who will go with the shriners in addition to this is the regular program of the Fl Zaribah nobles, who are known for their hospitality and entertainment in turin parts"
 The program says in unemotional language that the caravan will leave Phoenix Thursday evening at l:@o; that it will pick up several nobles at Tucson during the night, and, that it will arrive in Douglas Friday morn ing.-in time for breakfast.
 What will really happen is this
 There will be one standard Pullman full of sand heaters and members of the torture squad. In polite language they are called the patrol" Their real duties are to do all the devlish and wonderful things to novices that 24 ingenious brains can arrange to do. One visiting shriner. who is devil in his own home town ie, a member of the patrol" heard yesterday that particular friend of his intends to take the shrine. He spent a lot of money telegraphing for fearful and wonder ful equipment for the especial benefit of that friend. That's the kind of crit ters members of the patrol are.
 As soon as the train leaves, these unregenerate sons of Anak will. under special dispensation of the illSstTious Potentate, proceed to give every Phoe- nician on the train.-who is not shriner-the short and ugly degree, in order that he shall not ever divulge any of the things he sees and hears on the train The ladies also will be taken into q special branch of the Daughters of Isis, created for this purpose, so that every Phoenician on the train will go to Douglas duly and truly prepared to represent Phoenix and Fl Zaribah in the fullest sense of the term.
 There will sure be some entertain rnent on that train Thursday evening. The .Pote" has ordered that the very finest cars operated by that popular ard well known family. the Pullmans, shall be provided for the pilgrimage. There will be drawing rooms. compart-

At the Hip

Taking time by the forelock is the only way to describe the picture today at the Hip. It is called Miss Jackie of the Nay. The star is delightful Marguerite Fischer and the play is the best six -reeIer of the year. It is from the story of the same name and unfolds besides q timely tale, one of the newest thoughts in pictures.
 The opening scene finds Marguerite Fischer as the daughter of q wealthy Californian who is giving house party. Too much wine is flowing, and the daughter. dressed in regulation sailor suit for the masquerade for the occasion, is spirited on board the US. battIeship in the harbor. When she awakes she finds that the sudden call to war has sent the ship to sea in a hurry, and she is aboard disguised as a man. and no one save she knows her sex. She, of course, is put to work. and then a series of adventures that are both exciting and humorous are thrust upon this pampered daughter of a house of wealth who has never known d want that she could not lift her hand and gratify. You'll like this one because it is timely and it is diff ferent. With Marguerite ill Miss Jackie Of the Navy will be shown the best Pathe Weekly of the spring.

MAITLAND DAVIES PRAISES WAR BRIDES

Alla Nazimova comes to the Colum- bia theater today in the screen version Of War Brides" the drama in which she made such a pronounced success in vaudeville Nobody who hss seen this play in its tabloid form WI ever forget It. It was particular tense and impressive offering, and, while Miss Wentworth's idea has been strung out III advisedly at times, 1t is still a very remarkable attraction
 The early scenes in the film are taken ID with good deal Of unes- sential matter, although they e. have bearing on the final passages. They are mostly given over to an emphasiz- i1s of the contenlment and happiness of life in small places in the time of peace. But this has been done sp often - SO mauv plays dealing with Uar that 1t is rather waste of time.
 -.- eeul+ Is ,oJ Wet i.n.nn to need any reaashing here. As nearly every body Is aware, it deals with the qUes- ton of women marrying soldiers who are about to start for the front, for the express purpose of perpetuating the race. One 0f the women. who has married for love rises in revolution against the idea of making brood mares of the women QT the race. She takes the stand that if women are to supply the world with men who do the fighting they must have voice in de- ciding whether there shall be war CT peace. It is told in a very vivid man ner and develops into most pitiful tragedy.
 Whether one agrees with the ideas set forth or not there is no escaping the power and pathos of this story. as set forth in the final scenes of the photoplay. At first Nazimova seems out of place. Her makeup is not well suited to screen purposes and she does not get her stuff over in a manner that is at all convincing. But as the photoplay progresses this changes. By the end of the first half one feels that Nazmova has found herself. There is the same compelling power that characterizes her work on the stage. The force of the woman sweeps one away and compels ones interest and admiration.
 With each succeeding reel in the sec ond half the play gathers strength. It Is splendidly handled and the tragedy of 1t is at times almost overpowerins. In fact. it is a question if this very power will not prove detriment to the picture. It is so real that it be-
