Wednesday and Thursday
Wednesday and Thursday, July 1S
and 19, the Hood River Chapter of the
American Red Cross, will present Sarah
Bernhardt, the most famous actress in
the world, in picture owned and con-
trolled exclusively by the French gov
ernment, Mothers of France" which
is considered to be one of the most ia
nous, and in fact the greatest thing of
its kind in pictures. Several promi-
nent Hood River citizens who have
seen this show in Portland say that it
is without doubt the most wonderful
picture the screen has ever or will ever
know. In it are seen the phantom ar
mics of France marching to fight for
world freedom, and as the French gov
ernment took the picture to send to
America as message from the moth
ers of France to the mothers of Amer
lea, there are no padded scenes as in
some of the big spectacles, but every
scene of battle or trenches was taken
in the first line trenches on the. western
front. The Divine Sarah's portrayal
of French mother will go far to let
| American mothers see the spirit in
which France gives up her sons for de-
mocracy and the abolishment of mill
tarism and all its hellish frightfulness
in the form of the present world war.
Every cent spent at this show will help
the Red Cross Just so much, as the
proceeds go to the local Chapter. Ev-
cry show put on here under the auspic-
es of the Red Cross is worthy of the
admission charged and while you are
enjoying the picture at the same time
you are helping a world wide move
ment to ease the pain of our boys in
the trenches.
Friday, July 20. we will show Owen
Moore and Irene Fenwick in "a Girl
Like That, together with an animated
News.
Saturday, July Il. one day only, 1t is
with great pleasure that we announce
the personal appearance of Miss Myrtle
Stedman, one of the most popular and
beautiful stars on the entire Para
mount program, a star of the first
magnitude in the silent drama. Miss
Stedman before appearing in pictures,
was studying for the opera stage and
will sing two songs each performance.
She will wear the same beautiful
gowns and change songs and wardrobe
at every performance the same as she
did in Portland and Seattle. We have
gone to great expense to secure Miss
Stedman's appearance here, but we are
strong in the belief that no star or pic
ture is too expensive for our patrons,
and are sure that Miss Stedman's visit
here will be one of the things long re-
membered by the Hood River public.
Miss Stedman is not making towns the
size of Hood River as a rule, but
through the kindness of the manager
of the Seattle Film Exchange. she was
prevailed upon to stop over on her way
east. Prices for Miss Stedman will be
25c matinee and evening.
