committed against civilization,
when they were forced into the
degrading life Of the harem?
My nephew and ! were sick at
heart. We looked ct each other
Finally he said:
Uncle, l wish were big"
But why her story after these
years?
Wasn't she just q woman?
Wasn't she q subject Of Turkey?
Wasn't she a Christian govern
ed by Mohammedan rules?
Does not .Mohammedan
teach that women have no
souls" and that they are not tc
think, nor to reason, but simply
give birth to children?
Are not these the same Turks
with whom we are at war today?
She was a Christian, we said.
Christianity exalts womanhood.
1t makes her the sacred keeper
of the hearth. 1t places in her
hand the key to the virtues Of
life. 1t makes her the fore runner
Of progress and the herald of
love.
Why should we bother with
that Armenian woman?
Wasn't she just a woman?
No one molests US here in
America by the sanction of a
government. No one imposes
upon us his brutality and receives
the approval Of the law. We
have comfort here. We have
freedom. How would we have
felt had we been in her place?
But we are not.
Is that any reason why we
should forget her?
Is that any excuse why we
should ignore her agony?
Are we justified in not feeling
for her?
We emphasize virtue as the
sustaining force Of society.
Every day the potentially Of
character in life is impressed up
on US in some way or other.
The woman dashed away from
the hands of the Turks. Her
superhuman effort was made to
save her honor.
Was she just a woman?

WALSH AND HART ''... ,..,....... ..... ON FOX PROGRAM ( R 'l

George Walsh, the big boy with the happy smile, and Bill Hart, the tall, quiet fellow with the two x-Guns- those are the two stars of the current Fox program. And they are the two best that money can buy, represent ing, as they do. the popular choice of every red-blooded man and woman picture fan in the United States today. 'Georgie comes in his new, Fox hit, ''The Pride of New York;" and he certainly does look. we'll in olive drab! It is a regular Red, White, and Blue, picture, showing conditions in Amer ica today as a result of the war, and 1t brings certain truths right home in a clever way. It tells the story of two young men-0ne a fine, rollick- ing example of young American man hood, as played by George Walsh. and the other an effeminto flop. Both are drafted into the huge army that is now being raised. and in the service uniform Georgie surely. puts it over Regina4d for looks, and for awhole lot off other things, too. There is some great comedy in "The Pride of New York" which is to be expected of any picture in which this star ap- pears. It is a typical Walsh picture, and George gets himself into some great mix-ups. He doesn't even get serious when they put him in the trenches, but tries to figure out some way of making a fool out of the Kaiser. He is quite disappointed to learn that Wilhelm is spending the winter in Berlin, some miles from the front But there's one thing he does accomplish. and that is the rescue of a fair young Red Cross nurse from the hands of a bunch of barbarous Huns. And it's a mighty thrilling rescue, too.

A QUEENS" COMES
 TO PARSONS HOUSE

Believing a new. merry, snappy farce to be the real thing for the New Year holiday season, the man. a1ement of Parsons Theater has secured MT. Franzee's latest farce hit, -Four Queens" for three nights be- ginning next Monday, New Years Eve Matinees will be given Tues day (NeW Years Day) and Wednes- day. -Four Queens" is from the pen ot Emil Nyitray, also author of He Comes Up Smiling and 'The Ty- phoon." There are three acts and three new and unusually elaborate stage settings. MT. Frazee announces that he has spared no expense in the preparation ot th1s production, either in the matter of stage effects or in the selection of capable players to perform the piece. A cast of we'll known farceurs. such as he has al- ways given his tarces, is promised.
 ''Ihe Teacher of Goshen HOllOw''
 The Teacher of Goshen Hollow" which is to be presented at Parsons Theater on January 5, 4 and 5, is a comedy in which Mary Ryan will be seen as a New York girl, who finds her romance in a small Connecticut village. It is a role that calls for courageous treatment, yet with hu- morous passages ano tender moments that give a nearer insight to the real Mary Ryan than any play in which she has been seen.
 Then, too, "The Teacher of Goshen Hollow is peopled with a rare group of human characters who relate d story that might have happened in real life, story that is at once clear. clean and convincing.

BELOVED JIM" IS
 KEENEY'S FEATURE

Beloved Jim" one of the two biz
 features presented at Keeney's thea ter today, is one of those rare strong dramas that will bring tears to the eyes of many. Beloved Jim" is a study of a noble, character, and tho story rests entirely upon him and tlro sympathy he must naturally arouse in the hearts of the audience. The Christ mas spirit during the early part of the picture is strongly emphasized and is thoroughly in accord with the gen eral trend of the story. Prisciln Dean as Mary, provides not only . very charming picture but also offers her part in . manner that speaks we'll for her dramatic abilities. Harry Carter as Beloved Jim'' must be seen to be appreciated.
 Ruth Clifford and Monroe Salisbury in The Desire of the Moth'' a f1ve- reel Western story, that is alive with breezy action, brimful of healtsy seT- timent, pathos and humor. and the Western atmosphere is developed and maintained in an artistic style. Mon- roe Salisbury, as Christopher Fay. Is handsome, dashing and every inch the hero; Ruth Clifford finds the role of Stella Vorhis we'll adapted to her charming personality and splendid support is rendered by the other menl- bers of the cast.
 Three unusually good vaudeville acts conclude the program.

SIDE TALKS
Night, The Intoxicant
IY RUT CAMERON

Some friends with whom we had been taking dinner and spending an unusually pleasant evening recently urged us to stop for the night.
 We had rather a hard trip home ahead and it was temptation. q say a temptation because one accom- plishes so little in a day if one has to begin 1t by going home.b But my housemate steadily refused their urgings.
 Afterward I asked why.
 Mornings Are Always Anti Climaxes.
 Because" said my housematey i've were having such a good time and were enjoying each other so much. I didn't want to spoil it. Morn ings are always anti-climaxes I'm a different person in the morning and l think most people are"
 And when I thought 1t over agreed. We should have awakened in an entirely different mood. We should have tried to take up the thread of our nights gaiety and ut terly failed. And then we should have been constrained.
 As it was, We carried off a. pleasant memory of congenial talk, and when we meet again we shall take up tho thread naturally and easily.
 All People Are Divided Into Two
 Parts.
 I think every human being is di- vided into two personalities, that per- sonality which gets up in the morn ing and that which begins to come out toward evening.
 Doubtless that is one thing which distinguishes us from the animals: they sleep in the evening and thus have only one personality.
 Night is an intoxicant to most of tions We become more fluid, talk more easily, think more quickly, feel more wildly. We see things in larger way at night. Small difficult ties dwindle out of sight. Night is the time for social converse, not only by the laws of convention and con- venience, but by those of psychology.
 Night is the time for generous inn pulses. One reads some story of suf- fering and need at night and one plans to make some big sacrifice. And then comes morning with it's cold common sense, it's readjustment to an every day world; one reminds one's self that other people are not making such big sacrifices and one decides to think the matter over more thorough ly, and not to be too hasty-with the inevitable result.

THE BYACK MONK"
 AT THE LYCEUM

The picture magnificent, the story they are all talking about the great. est possible presentation of the mas siye subject on a massive scale-"Ras putin, The Black Monk" has reached New Britain, and at it's first presen- tation yesterday afternoon at the Ly- ceum before an audience the receipts from which were given to the Polish war relief fund. it measured up to the high standard with which it was accredited in advance notices. Here is a case where press notices followed closely the path of truth, and no ex- aggeration was brought into play to describe it's wonders.
 The story of Russias inner work ings that led up to and included the preliminary steps of the great war is here told graphically. The story of how peasant with no mark of dis tinction to bring him out superior to his fellow-creatures rose to a position in Russia that made him the real ruler, the veritable king without a crown is interesting. It is no or dinary story.
 moulding the plan of it's future exist
 
 state of chaos is what interests the world. Who is behind it? Who are some of the men whose influence caused this condition? These and other questions until now perplexing, are answered, not in guesswork manner, but with the best historical references to back up the producers. "Rasputin, The Black Monk" is the 1%o o& as true, because it is true. Rasputin, whose influence counted heavily in Russia's fortunes until he was killed, is the center of interest, with Ke- resky and others whose names are now familiar in the daily newspapers playing the parts they really enacted during Russia's stormy session.
 Seven reels of stupendous effort, with seven of the motion picture worlds greatest stars taking part are the outstanding features that should be remembered. This is a picture that has played the biggest theaters in the country and has been viewed with satisfaction by historical experts, students, and just plain common folks. It has an interest that makes it attractive to all and to miss it means the loss of wonderful op- portunity to get greater and broad CT understanding of Russia as she should be understood. It will be at the Lyceum today and tomorrow.
 On the same program is the Key stone latest comedy the Lyceum Weekly, giving all the latest war news, and happenings in this country and other countries, besides other inter- esting pictures. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, the man agement will usher in the new year with William s. Hart's latest picture, '"The Silent Man." The marked diff ference between this pictures and his older ones that are being re-shown serves to point out the great develop ment that has been experienced by the star.
