 War in an imaginary p1ncipality abroad will be reflected in stirring bat tie scenes and inspiring acts of hero ism amid the grave dangers of the fir Ing line. The call of country is em- phaszed through contrasting actions of the hero of the occsssion-showing how brave soldier may he turned in tc an arrant traitor by due process of selfish reasoning. Allen Holubar. who produced Treason" had q large idea of the task in hand He has not alone directed the production but plays the leading roie-a soldier brave in battle who ultimately steels his heart against his country's need and betrays impor- tant secrets to the enemy. Mir Hou- bar and Joseph Girard will carry the leading made roles with Lois Wilson. and Dorothy Davenport in the finale.

MARY PICKFORD TO
 BE AT THE LAMARA

AS an attraction extraordinary the Lamara theater. commencing Tuesday will present Mary Pickford in a new Aircraft picture, "A Romance of the Redwoods." staged under the personal direction of Cecil B. DeNIille.
 A western subject of full -blooded, dramatic action, the new Pickford ve- hicle presents Little Mary in a role that is entirely different from any thing in which she has ever appeared on the screen. The story was written by Mr De Mile himself in collabora~ tiOn with Jennie Macpherson and dis closes a wealth of typical Pickford incidents of heart appeal. The settings are of the days of 49 during the time of the big gold rush. Mary Pickford, as Jenny Lawrence, a little New Eng land Miss, journeys to the west in search of her only relative. an uncle. Before she is aware of it, she falls in love and as a result, becomes en- meshed in serious complications. Nari- ous clever twists to the story afford surprises that add greatly to the gen. eral merit of the picture.
 "A Romance of the Redwoods" links together the arts of two of the great est notables in screenland, Mary Pick ford and Cecil De Mile, The talents
 
 the production of q photoplay would mean a subject of unusual merit. The combination of both represents the affiliation of the screens best artists. Not only is Miss Pickford's wonderful charm included to best advantage in her new picture but a dramatic ffnesse such as she has never before dis played on either stage or screen is also apparent. In addition to this re markable Pickford characterization there is presented the art of De Mile, creator of Joan the Woman the famous screen spectacle, and other cinema triumphs Staged at the new Lasky studios in California. the pro duction offers various innovations in motion picture technique that are only possible as q result of the novel in- stallments of this model plant under the supervision of Mir. De Mile. Sup porting the star is an exceptional cast including Elliott, Dexter, Charles Ogle, Fully Marshall, Raymond Hatton and Winter Hall.

THE HIP

Three female stars of both the stage and the screen and one beloved male of the screen. feature the seven days to follow at the Hip.
 Ann Murdock opens today in "Where Love Is" and is followed Tuesday by Emmy Wheland. talented and beauti- ful stage favorite. in Sewers and Reapers.'' which must not be con, founded with the cry for land culti- vation just now ringing on every hand. Like the fellow who turned down a booking of the Lion and the Mouse" because his people did not like animal shows, this picture deals with men and women who SOW the winds and reap the whirlwinds.
 It is the old story of a boy infatu- ated with girl of the working class, parental opposition and then the in evitable results when the mismated decided to disagree. Sewers and Reapers' is another of the special Metro super pictures becoming justly popular at the Hip. "Sowers and Reapers' is for Tuesday and Wednes- day.
 Thursday and Friday a. male star takes the screen when Earl Williams plays '.The Hawk" The press agent has called it, ''The story of a mans sonl steeped in iniquity." A man who stole jewels in society to make the woman he loved happy This man was redeemed by the love of the right woman. "The Hawk had Broadway, New York, legitimate run and was a sparkling success.
 The final day of the week finds Lillian Walker in "Dimples Baby
