MOVING PICTURE ATTRACTIONS.


Clara Kimball Young :us'Trilby. -
When George Du Maurier first wrote
"Trilby," it took the world by storm,
becoming the best seller of the times
"Trilby'' was first presented on the
stage in London, where it met with
great success. When the Equitable
Motion Picture Corporation decided to
produce the film version of "Trilby"
the decided to make it as great or
even greater success, spsring no pains
TO expense to make it q masterpiece.
Tribly, q model for an obscure sculp-
tor, seeking adventure, meets Little
Billee. the Laird. Svengli, Gecko and
others. Svengali experiments with
Trilby and proves that he can hypna-
tize her. His devlish mind conceives
the idea of keeping her under mes.
meric power and giving her, through
his power, the voice of nightingale.
Billee and Trilby fall in love with each
other, and when Svengali finally in
fiuences Trilby away and through his
hellish power makes her q great Diva,
Billee is uncomfortable. Trilby mounts
the ladder of fame and soon becomes a
universal figure. Billee and his
friends happen into a theatre one
night, where a fashionable audience
has gathered to hear the famous La
Svengali. as Trilby has become known.
Discovering Trilby. Billee attacks
Svengali, who dies of heart failure,
and Trilby after months of torture, re-
covers her own personality and is
about to become happy when, facing
Svengali's picture, the old influence
returns and she drops dead of fright
The loveliest model who ever posed
for a life picture is Miss Young in
one of the scenes of this powerful pro-
duction. In another scene she ap-
pears as a model for a sculptor. Be
cause of the tremendous appeal of the
story, because Of its intensity, its
truthfulness in Characterization and
the wierdness of its plot "Triby" has
been called 1.-THE deathless story"
This screen presentation of "Trilby"
is one of the most thoroughly satisfac-
tory motion pictures ever filmed.
"Trilby" was a great book and play,
but as motion picture it is simply
tremendous. The ever pleasing Ches-
ter Barnett is splendid in the role of
Little Biiiee. A very interesting
Paramount Photograph will also be
shown. This is splendid show this
evening, don't miss it,

COURT-PLASTER WARNING
City Health Department Of New York
Finds Tetanus Inquiry Justified

The Department of Health issued a
warning yesterday against the use OF
any but standard grades of court piss
ter, on the ground that tetnnus germs
might be contained in the cheaper
grades sold by peddlers. The research
laboratories of the department have
been making an examination of court
plaster 1t was said that no tetanus
germs had been found, but that it was
believed warning was justified.
Recently there came from the West
report that German agents were dis
tributing court plaster in the United
States carrying tetanus germs. After
an investigation the Department of
Justice issued statement in which it
said 1.-THE Department of Justice,
without sharing in any sensational
view in which the sticking plaster or
court plaster became infected, states
that some of the samples submitted
aud analysed have been thereby shown
to contain tetanus germs. The public
is consequently cautioned aaginst pur
chasing this remedy except from sp-
proved sources, the warning being
particularly directed against purchases
in small packages from street peddlers
and vendors.

MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS
OF MARYLAND
Wanted To Save Surplus Fruits And
Vegetables "A Nations Appeal

Maryland, especially Anne Arundel
county has q surplus of perishable
fruits and vegetables, which may go
to waste unless the mothers and
daughters" respond Immediately to
President Wilson's appeal today to the
women of the Nation In order to
avoid this waste, there must be imme-
diate, organized intelligent energy ex-
pended in canning, preserving, pick
ling, drying and storing these pro-
ducts for local consumption.
This problem must be solved locally.
No Federal or State governmental or
ganization can solve it without the &C
tion of the women themselves in every
city and town. 1t is a simple prob
lem. appealing to the common sense of
all women whose efforts rave helped
in part to bring about the large pro-
duction of fruits and vegetables in
city and rural gardens which is in part
threatened with waste.
These facts have been pounded home
in every State by Secretary IF Agri-
culture Houston through every agency
of the Department since the hars est
ing season began. The entire extern
sion force of the Department of Agri-
culture is actively engaged in consere-
ing foodstuffs. 10 order. however, to
reach every housewife the Department
is calling on every woman to take to
heart the words of the President and
realize that her own welfare, together
with the welfare of the entire Nation.
demands that these products be saved
for local consumption.
Every woman who has no garden Is
asked to "pitch in" and purchase full
supplies for her own immediate and
future use. Now is the time, when
prices are low, to store your pantry
shelves most economically with a
"fresh winter garden and orchard"
Telegraphic reports from twenty
fouf States which are in distress are
made public today by Secretary Hous-
ton. These reports show that large
SURPRISES Of food are now ready on
the farms and in the war gardens
in the cities and rural communities.
In ell of these States there will be
rottlng and waste if the women do not
act Immediately.
State reports indicate that if the
women will only realize this, all this
enormous surplus of fruits and vege-
tables can be saved
The States particularly affected are
Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho
Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland
Michigan, Nebraska. New Hampshire,
New Jersey, New York, North Caro-
lima, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South
Dakota, Tennessee. Utah, Vermont
Virginia, Washington, West Virgins
and Wisconsin.

for help speak for themselves.
