WAR
 CONFERENCE CLOSED.
The Closing Address Was Delivered by
 Colonel E. M. House.

Paris, Dec. 3.-The inter allied war conference was closed today with brief address by Colonel E. M. House, chairman of the American mission. Colonel House, who delivered the clos ing address at the request of Premier Clemenceau, said:
 "M. Clemenceau, the president of the French council in welcoming the dele gates to this conference, declared that we had met to work. Ills words were prophetic. There was been co-ordina- tion and a unity of purpose which promise great results for the future. It unity and by concentrated effort we shall be able to arrive at the goal which we have set out to reach.
 "In behalf of my colleagues, 1 want to avail myself of this occasion to thank the officials of the French gov ernment and, through them, the French people, for the warm welcome and great consideration they have shown us. In coming to France we have felt that we were coming to the house of our friends. Ever since our govern ment was founded there has been a bond of interest and sympathy between us-a sympathy which this war has famed into a passionate admiration. courage and sacrifice. Therefore the great deeds which have illuminated the last three years have come as no sur prise to us of America. We knew that when called upon France would rise to a splendid achievement and would add lustre to her name.
 America salutes France and her heroic sons and feels honored to fight by the side of so gallant a comrade." :"

Today and tonight Billie Burke will be seen at the Breed theatre in the first of her Paramount pictures The Mysterious Miss Terry, a strangely charming production direct ed by the we'll known director, J.. Searie Dawley. who has been respon- sible for many of the Marguerite Clark productions. This is the best picture the famous star has ever done and in it she is supported by a cast of notable actors, including Thomas Meighan. '-The Mysterious Miss Terry is fully up to the Para mount standard and proves to be one of the sensational releases of the sea- son. It is one of the pictures you can't afford to miss.
 As an added attraction the Breed presents William S. Hart in the two part western drama Every Inch a Man and the latest war news in the Hearst-Pathe weekly completes the bill.

AT THE AUDITORIUM
The Regeneration Will be Produced by the ChamPIin Comedy Company This Afternoon at the Auditorium.

The Regeneration is one of the strongest crook plays ever written. It is somewhat similar to Alias Jimmy Valentine" but far better play as it has a great deal of the brightest comedy, cIeverest fun and humor ever seen with a play of this kind.
 1t tells the story of the underworld, and a motherly and maidenly love for an erring son who was deserted in his youth and became highwayman, but the love of a simple girl makes him go straight.
 Tonight-"Some Baby"
 The central idea of Some Baby is clever and new. Old Dr. Releyer, after experimenting for 25 years, discovers what he believes to be the genuine elixir of youth. His laboratory assist ant, who has stolen a dog upon which the doctor is experimenting, is threat ened with arrest, and restores the dog to it's owners, replacing it in the lab oratOry with one of its pups, very small, but similarly marked. When the doctor discovers that. as he supposes, the dog has shrunk back to puppyhood under the influence of his elixir, he loudly proclaimS the success of his dis covery and seeks human being upon whom to demonstrate his theory of youth renewal.
