 The theater is packed to the doors
 every night and it has been neces-
 Sary to turn away large numbers be-
 cause of the popularity of the pie
 ture. The management has arranged
 to hold the film for the entire week
 to give all an opportunity to see it.
 The story which is picturiZed in War
 Brides is based on the European war
 and it's terrible results and is one of
 the strongest peace arguments ever
 made. 1t introduces as a film star
 Nazimova, the great tragedienne. and
 one of the worlds greatest emotional
 actresses. She plays the leading role
 and there is a tear in her every ex-
 pression. The acting is wonderful, the photography superb and the con- struction of the entire piece splendid example of expert stage craft The picture begins in the afternoon at 3:3O and in the evening at 9:15 and is preceded by the regu- lar Paramount feature, the serial re- leases and three splendid vaudeville acts.
 The Paramount offering for the next three days will be "Tennessee's Pardner," a fve-part drama of un- common interest.
 Major Doss the man that grows, is the vaudeville feature. The man actually grows over a foot before the very eyes of the audience He is of freakish construction and as a re- suit of years of practice he has reached a body development which enables him to stretch himself in the most unnatural fashion conceivable. There are two other good acts on the bill.
