OPERA HOUSE FRIDAY.

What woulh you do if
You wore the son OF a millionaire
and you had more money than you
knew what to do with;
And all your friends were hard
drinking, happy go-lucky young pco-
pie;
And If you went to masquerade
party and wliio four sheets In the
wind you wished an engagement ring
on the finger of a young lady million
airess;
And you afterwards went cavorting
around town in the costume Of a
knight Of old with moro than he
could hold, finally ending up in the
police court;
And IL, after all this, your hard
hearted dad bailed you out and then
shipped you off to one Of his con-
stricton camps down on tho Tennes-
sec River where dam was in the pro-
cess of construction what, under
such circumstances as these, would
you do, especially when you found
that tho sister OF tho construction
superintendent was a pippin OF girl
who made your heart do quick-step
whenever you looked into her eyes?
This is the situation that Brian
Goodwin Is up against in Youth" the
newest World-picture Brady-Made
which will be seen on Monday at tho
Opera House.
Carlyle Blackwell plays the role Of
Brian Goodwin in this production
Which charming June Dlvidge is seen
In the part of the pippin of a girl.
