never allowed any collections around
her house. I always had to sneak my
things outside. Mother was what
! they called a crackerjack housekeeper
and while she spoiled me In every
thing else, she never allowed me to
litter the house with anything.
There was wistful note in his
voice that went straight to my heart.
T could see the child he had been,
grieving because he could not enjoy
his collections" in peace. Then
realized again the child he is, and
knew that I must mother my Peter

chance of happiness. l had swift
vision, gone as soon as it had come,
of wide-eyed lad, mine, who should
never, never have to sneak his "col-

thought of the shadowy dream child
who might not be mine curiously
enough made my voice tenderer to
my husband, although in strict justice
the vision should have made me bitter

FOX OFFERS THOU
SHALT NOT STEAL

Whoever conceived the plot OF
Thou Shalt Not Steal" the feature
of the present Fox program, certainly
did most remarkable job. For it
is one of these pictures that keep you
right on the edge of the seat all the
way through, wondering just what is
going to happen next, and what does
happen invariably turns out to be just
the opposite to what you-expected. It
Is a detective story through and
through, and the most mysterious
thing that can be imagined. Virginia
Pearson plays the lead, the part of
Mary Bruce, an American girl who
is about to be bartered to English
royalty. The night before the ex-
change Is to be formally consum-
mated, she robs the man who has
claimed her But in turn she her
self is robbed, and a number Of valu-
ables are missing that she knows
nothing about. Detectives are sum-
moned. and make good progress, by
applying the process Of elimination to
all the suspects. But they reach the
end Of their rope when they have
eliminated everyone, and can find no
more suspects. A mysterious partv

Brown, appears throughout the pic
ture and he is an admirable type of
quaintness. 1t is through his most
astonishing work that the problem is
finally solved in most unique man
ner. William Nye, who plays this
part, is almost as much of a hit as
Virginia Pearson herself, and mas
much as he also directed the picture,
a mighty good share Of the credit be-
longs to him. Dan Mason, that in
imitable character comedian, and
Claire Whitney are also in the cast.

PERIL" which is the graphic title of
the present chapter of "The Seven
Pearls" is a distinct novelty and as
full of thrills as a two-reeler can be.
Most of the action takes place high
above the clouds, and the services Of
all kinds of aircraft, from balloons
to Zeppelins and hydro planes are
pressed into service, and there are
one or two parachute drops that are
unequalled for realism. The Red
Ace and an interesting issue Of the
Pathe News are also on the program.

CLARK
AT THE LYCEUM

Reaching supreme heights in her
characterization Of Tommy, one OF
three daughters of the English March,
ioness of Castlejordan, who have been
brought up as boys, Marguerite Clark,
the winsome little motion picture star
comes to the Lyceum today, to remain
until Saturday. After two years be-
fore the camera, Miss Clark has finally
completed production that for it's
everlasting cleverness and originality
has any OF, her former pictures backed
off the boards. Her part is probably
more difficult than any ever attempted
by her, but she does her work in that
manner that has endeared her to the
hearts of the picture lovers Of two
continents.
1.-THE Amazons" tells the tale
Of three girls, brought up as boys. who
finally feel the pangs Of love- and de-
spite the wishes Of their mother, mar
ry. Before the knot Is tied, though,
they go through chain of expert
ences that brings the audience from
thrills to shrieks of laughter. Miss
Clark as Tommy, the liveliest of the
trio furnishes most of the excitement
when she goes on a visit to London.

GRACE CUNARD is
KEENEY'S FEATURE

'society's Driftwood", with Grace
Cunard is one of the best productions
seen upon the Butterfly program for
some time. The plot dealing with the
unjust judge who is caught in his own
trap by woman, offers play with
force and sympathetic appeal that
is ably maintained throughout.
big Timber, featuring Kathlyn
Williams and her eminent co-star,
Wallace Reid, is true out-and-out
western story with plenty of action,
thrills, and human interest. The story
is quite novel, tinted here snd there
with touches Of originality withal car
rying enough pathos, tntermingled
with plenty of comedy, to meet the
approval Of the majority of the pic
ture fans.
Lawler and Daughters Is one of the
best acts ever seen on any local stage.
Lawler was made famous twenty-five
years ago when he composed and wrote
the song that never grew old 1.-The
Sidewalks Of New York" and many
other song hits of those days are
among his selections. All the musical
numbers in this act are composed by
Mr.. Lawler, who still retains the pop
ulacity he gained years ago as a song
writer.
Mcintyre and Wynne, singing and
dancing pair, are real entertainers.
Both are excellent dancers while that
of the mans which is of the eccentric
variety, certainly is exceptional.
