GOOD MEETING IT
FIRST Christian

An interesting service was con-
Quoted last night at the First Chris
tan Church when Rev. Herbert
Cooke, general field secretary Of
church extension, preached a very
abie sermon. Several persons were
baptised, and all present seemed to
take great interest in the meeting,
which lasted more than an hour.
An interesting feature of the
meeting was a general discussion by
the minister on the good work which
Gypsy Smith accomplished in Pensa-
cola, and general discussion by the
members of the audience which fol-
lowed the mention of Mr.. Smiths
name.
Rev. Mr.. Cooke will hold services
each night this week, with the ex-
ception of Friday, and the general
public is cordially invited to attend

ENGLAND PLEASED
AT WAR MESSAGE

London, April president Will
sons address to congress was warm
ly welcomed and applauded by the
British people. They recognize that
his request that congress join the
allies against Germany is the most
weighty influence upon the result of
the world struggle since England
aligned with France. The substance
and tone of the presidents address
electrified the people, because it was
more dramatic and direct than was
expected. American colonies in Lon
don, and in other British cities, were
especially enthusiastic and gratifed.

THE RESCUE" ON
SCREEN AT FOX'S

"The Rescue" which is the. big
Bluebird special feature of the Fox
program for tonight is distinct in
novation. It introduces a decidedly
original situation, that Of divorced
woman, who, as she herself thinks,
to save her former husband from the
wiles of another woman, makes every
effort to fascinate him, and in the
end, wins him all over again. At
least, that's what it looks like. up to
the very end, when the truth is re-
vealcd that she is the victim of a
deeply laid and very ingenious plot.
Dorothy Phillips, as the fair
Divorce, is refreshing contrast to
the ordinary type that attempt such
roles, and her work through the pic
ture is branded with absolute perfec-
ton, A plot of much life and action,
pretty scenes, pretty and capable act
resses and a surprise ending combine
to make THE Rescue" a. most enter
tanning piece of pictorial story telling.
THE Fatal Ring" which grows more
and more interesting as 1t approaches
its climax, has only very few more
chapters to be told, and in today's
episode, which is brimful Of hair-rais-
ing adventures and exciteme emit. is one
of the best bits of this highly meri-
torious serial that has been presented
yet. Among the other features of to-
days show the latest issue of The
Pathe News, and a very funny car
toon-comedy, The Cheese Tanners"
in uy1,i oh n
imitable creations of his imaginative
brain, Mutt and Jeff, are the featured
characters. The show will be run
continuously today. In tomorrow's
feature, The Car of Chance" an
other big Blue bird special produc-
ton (Which was directed by Ince, the
famous movie director who staged
"Civilization" and many other big SUI
per-pictures), will be seen Franklin
Farnum, the versatile brother of Will
liam and Dustin. 1t is story with
comedy turn in which a jitney bus
plays a very important part. It re-
lates the adventures of young man
who starts out in life with nothing
but an old automobile of popular
make, and a hundred dollars with
which to keep it in repair He gets
his chance, though, when the trolley
men go on a strike. Among the other
interesting features of tomorrow
nights program will be Gathers
Hatband,' in which Flora Finch and
Norma Talmage will appear, and THE
Vengeance of Durand," starring Earl
Williams and Edith Story Among
the musical selections that will be rem
dered by the Fox concert orchestra
will be a popular selection from Victor
Herbert,s recent success, "Eileen,'
and selected numbers from Ills Lit
tie Widows Several popular pieces
will also be played.

-LYCEUM POPULAR
SUNDAY THEATER

The Lyceum, in years gone by, the
most popular Sunday evening motion
picture house in the city, the rendez-
vous of everyone who loved good pic
lures and plenty of them, is coming
back strong and week by week is
adding to its Sunday evening patron
age. In order to nurse the habit of
the public in starting the week at this
high-c up-to-datc playhouse, the
management has booked several excel
lent pictures to be shown especially at
the Sunday shows.
Tomor night the long list will be
headed by THE Juggernaut." starring
Earl Williams and Anita Stewart, one
of the greatest teams that ever ap-
peared before tho camera, and Her
Night Out with May Robson in the
lead. Sundays show will also include
several other pictures of the type that
are setting the Lyceum in a place
where it is recognized as the theater
supreme.
"The Juggernaut' is one of the best
railroad stories ever filmed, and has
a wreck scene that is admitted su-
preme in the history of motion pic
lures. The suffering of a railroad pres
ident who refused to repair the tracks,
trestles and bridges Of his road and
whose daughter was a passenger in
one of The trains that broke through
weakly bridge is only
one of the many threads of the plot
that makes the picture a big hit. The
scene where the train plunges through
the weak bridge is one that lifts the
audience RICH out of their seats.
Madame Petrova in 1.-The Law of the
Land, one of the strongest dramas
ever filmed will head the bill next
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

many husbands won't let off steam at

that Of course she did.
