Today and Tuesday the Breed vii present Wallace Reid and Cleo Ridge : ly in The House of the Golden Win : dows, a hve-part Paramount produc = play that these two popular stars have appeared in, and this contains story quite different from what they have ever done before, as it has deieate touch of fantasy intertwined with a blot of tense human emotion, love, ex- citement and happiness, and in facs has become known as picture Of nap piress. The supporting cast includes James Neill, Mabel Van Buren, Bop Fleming, Jane Wolff and Marjorie
 The Pathe Weekly and very funny Christie comedy will complete the bill for today and Tuesday.
 Commencing next Monday and con tfuuing every Monday and Tuesday for 10 weeks, the Breed will present The Great Secret, a stupendous serial star ring the greatest co-Star combination IT the motion picture world, Francis x Bushman and Beverly Bayne. This licture is released on Jan. and will appear at the Breed when it is but seven days old, and at the same time 1t is being shown at William Fox's Academy of Music and the Keith and Proctor houses in New York city.
 The following criticism of The Great Secret appeared in yesterdays New York Morning Telegram:
 Metro comes 1orth with a Seflal or feature strength in The Great Secret, a production which is unusually well favored both in matter of stars and Director Each episode has Yes, yt.s 20 on,' ending that leaves both the fero and heroine in a precarious posi- lien. There are points of originality in the story and direction that are worth mentioning. In the first place, there are plenty of fights and last-minutc regcues to enliven the story. The her1 d0eRn't fall in love with the heroine the first night, in fact, he is engaged to another, and in the second place, there fs fair sprinkling of humor all through the action. W. Christia Ca banne's direction is of course the bes-. He has put on his thrills and fighting scenes in good style ana has handled fEe suspense admirably. The photogra- raphy is very fine, and the excellent ttnting gives the film an aristrocratic finish
