"Marrioge a La Carte"

The photoplay Marriage a la
Carte" is based on the stage play
Marrying Money" which has had
great success in, the various theaters
of the country. 1t was produced for
World Pictures by CLARA Kimball
Young. ~
The story OF Marriage la Carte"
is a satire upon matrimony, nothing
more nor less. 1t reveals the mar
riage game, as it is frequently played,
in all its unmistakable cynicism and
baseness, although it does not over
look the humorous side of the matter.
Mrs. Niles, an ambitious society
lady, has a pretty daughter, Mil
dred, played by Clara Kimball Young,
and she wants the girl to make good
match. Along comes an eligible
count who, however, hasn't got any
thing more to recommend him to
Mildred than his title. Exit his
countship. As Mr.. Niles, Mildred's
father, fails in business, it is i'm
/ erative that the girl should now
marry real money. Instead Of which
she falls in love with a penniless
young fellow, Theodore Vandeveer,
aud they are married. There is con-
sternation in the brides family, which
is removed when it is revealed that
the young bridegroom inherits money.

Baraca Class President
To Visit Churches Here

James c. Johnson of Buffalo, N. Y,
formerly president of the local Tri-
City Baraca union, is in Omaha for a
week.
Mr.. Johnson moved to Buffalo four
years ago to accept an important posi-
ton with Larkin & Co. He immedi-
ately began organizing baraca classes
in the Protestant churches. When
he became president of the Buffalo
Baraca union three years ago there
were only six baraca classes, and
now there are ninety-two classes. Two
years ago Mr.. johnson was elected
president of the New York State
Baraca- Philathea union, and he made
such splendid progress that he was
this fall elected as its head for third
term. tft te
Sunday the Baraca classes will take
him on a whirlwind tour of the va
rious classes in the city, where he will
make short talks.

"A Gamble IN Souls"

The title of This play sounds as II
it might deal with all the horrible
things imaginable and come close to
the neither regions in its perturbation
but such is not the case. In reality
the story is one dealing with but few
people and telling peculiar love
story. Cast:
Arthur worden, evangelist ,....
.'.,..ta.. ...,.."......W William Desmond
Freda Maxey ......,...,... Dorothy Dalton
Gus Hanson s.,....,..,,....-P. D. Tabler
Tom Leonard. ,.,..... Charles X. French
The play is the eventiul story of a
girl and minister WHO couldn't I'M
derstand each other until fate tossed
them together in wilderness. The
action opens in the "Barbary Coast" OF
San Francisco, where the girl, dance
hall habitue, and the evangelist, a
young and enthusiastic social worker,
first met. Then it is transplanted to
an uninhabited island in the Pacific.
where understanding and love eventu-
ally dawn,
Miss Dalton is seen as Freda
Maxey, one OF the pitiful many chain
ed to the standards OF the "Barbary
Coast" and who models be- life ac-
cording to its code. The role gives
her many opportunities. Desmond in
the part Of Arthur .Worden, the evan
gelist, is declared to give one ,of the
most strongly dramatic characterize
atoms Of his career.
The support is supplied by Charles
X. French as Tom Leonard, a
theatrical manager, and P. D. Tabler
as Gus Hanson, a third castaway.
The production was directed by
