WILLIAM H. HART
 PACKS FOX'S HOUSE

Well, the big Hart picture, "The Cold Deck is sure some picture! And the huge crowd that damned every availa ble nook and cranny of Fox's theater last night were simply carried away with it. Brimful of thrills and exciting incidents, it is one of those real, typical western tales that just holds one on the edge of the seat from beginning to end, and then leaves one wishing it was going to start all over again. It has been call led a truly representative Hart sub- ject, and it is all of that, for it shows the good bad man at the best of his worstness and that's going some. There is more action, real living stuff, than is ordinarily put into three such films, and it is staged in such way as to lend it convincing realism that is seldom found in a work of the kind. The story has to do with the adventures of one of those devil may-care type of fellows that no min- ing town should be without, if it ex- poets to go down in fiction. Because he spurns the Hove" of a dark senorita of the dance hall, she makes it her business to see that he loses every nickel he ever hoped to own. Driven by despair, he takes up the entertaining little pastime of holding up stage coaches, and for an amateur, he does quite remarkably we'll at 1t. One morning, however, the little town buzzes with the news that the driver of the last stage had been found shot on the road. Hart is immediately suspected and as the evidence all points directly at him, it looks like a hemp necklace for William. But somebody gives. him tip. And that's quite enough to start things. Quite a number of events happen then, and with a good deal of rapidity, some of them Intensely exciting, and others hilariously funny. But eventually MT. Hart gets his man, and in the approved cow-puncher fashion. bring ing him a few miles at the end of a lariat, as an aid to digestion. The Cold Deck" will be shown again to- day and tomorrow together with other select features. including '"The Fighting Trail" and funny Drew comedy.

 After the vulgarity and cruelty Of that speech I had no further con- junction about dealing with Cousin Agatha as I ached to do. l caught her eyes and held them with the cool, scornful look I used sometimes to employ effectively with her type Of embryo woman in my school days.
 Tt may interest you to know that I prepared Katies wedding dress with my own hands, that she was married from our home, that her huspano IS our man of all york; I said 1clly.

With the combination of an inter- esting. nerve-tingling story and the Introduction of novelty such as mo- ton pictures have never known be- fore. "The Countesn Charming," feat uring Julian EltinEe. the worlds most famous female imperaonator, comes to the Lyceum today for three days stay. Mr. EltlnKe. who is as much at homo enncting the role Of n boau- tiful woman as he Is sitting in his own comfortable apartment smoking his favorite pipe makes his debut in pie lures in this production, and reports from tho strand theater.

 Julian Eltinge Is q world wide known character. Ever since the time he was drafted from amateur theatricals because of his ability as a female impersonntor into legitimate stage productions, he has been rising rapidly in the profession. One of New York's most famous theaters Is named after him, and European cen- ters remember him with kind thoughts or the past. when he went to Eng land and earned place high in the estimation of the public over across. 1t took great cajollng and arguing be- fore the famous star was won over to the silent drama, but he has finally arrived, and with both feet.
 Eltlnge is mans man, regardless of the roles he plays. On the stage or in the studio he may be q beauti- ful "woman." but in private life is a man all the way through. He may boast, and he does with facts to back it up, that he is the owner of the most beautiful wardrobe in existence, if a wardrobe can be said to exist Wom- en who are useA to beautiful gowns throng theaters where Eltinge ap- pears, just to gaze at the wonderful creations he wears. In "The Countess Charming" in the role of Countess Raffelski," he wears some beautiful gowns, and he certainly knows how to wear them
 The story itself deals with the ad- Vantages of young man ostracized from the smart set who gets back again into the inner circles by dress ing as a Russian countess Society falls hard and he has plenty of fun kidding the people who formerly scorned him. Incidentally, as the countess" he fixes 1t up" for himself with the girl he is trying to win. The production Is replete with startling scenes, and the climax Is a hummer.

Is There Any Bitter Feeling
BY RUTH CAMERON

Some questions of justice came up the other day in which the Author man, instead of taking advantage of certain circumstances as he we'll might have, almost leaned backwards in his determination to be perfectly square.
 Somebody praised him and some body else said what a terrible con- science he must have
 "I don't know as I'd call it exactly conscience he said, "it is more that I've found it's darn good fun to be square,
 That's rather a new slant on the subject, isn't it?

But bully good one, I thinl-to fall into the Authorman's way of thinking
 When you stop to consider it, isn't 1t fun to be square.
 Square in Every way.
 Square in every way, I mean.
 For instance;
 To be as punctilious about telling the butcher or the grocer when he leaves an item off your bill as you would in protesting an over charge.
 TO give people, even people you dont like. credit when they deserve credit and the benefit of the doubt when there is a doubt
 To admit it fairly and squarely when you have been in the wrong.
 To always be careful to do your share in everything.
 To keep promises even when 1t comes hard (Do you remember the Bible definition of a gentleman, The who sweareth to his own hurt and changeth not.)
 A Bath for the Soul.
 It's such clean feeling knowing you nave been square, The same sort of a feeling you have when you've bathed, and dressed in clean linen from head to toe, or gone to bed in clean sheets. It's a kind of bath for the soul.
 Who that has tried to be absolute- ly square would change places with King or multimillionaire q think they are the modern equivalent of the ancient kings and doubtless have far better time than modern kings do) If the latter hadn't as clean a record?
 But Don't Get Self Righteous.
 There are just two things the man ! who is trying to be square has to look out for.
 Not to get self righteous about it. And not to get too harsh and ex- acting in his demands on other people. If you ask an equivalent for your squareness what reward have ye? The sporting thing is to do it for your own sake-just because it,s such darn good fun"
