The Garden of Allah. one of the most beautiful love stories ever told. with Helen Ware, the popular stage star, in the leading role, is the feature attraction at the Breed thea Ire tomorrow and Saturday. When it was presented on the stage it was acclaimed one of the marveIs of the dramatic world because Of the big scenes which were introduced and the presence of native peoples in the des- ert drama. The stage had it's Iimita- tions in the matter of presenting the remarkable scenes of the original story but :n the screen version it is possible to faithfully present each scene in all it's spIendor while it is likewise possible to introduce hun dreds of native folk where one vas possible in the stage version. The story is one of heart interest. as those who saw the play knew, and in the hands of Miss Ware. the leading role is most capably cared for. She is supported by a cast of unusual note, including Thomas Santschi. Nam moth Greek temples are seen in the pictures.
 Today's bill at the Breed consists of Emily Stevens in A Sleeping Mem ory. a seven-act Metro special pro- duction de luxe; the Burton Holmes travelogue and a Victor Moore com eay.

The Honor System. a Great, Throb- hing Perturbation of the Grief of the Millions.

The Honor System is basicaI1y the pfceurtzation of the grief of millions 1t is great, throbbing drama of a thousand thrills.
 It's whole appeal is founded not on the forceful presentation of a centur- ies old problem, but on the universal> : ity of human emotions
 The delft touches in the film that bring the lump to the throat are real, not forced
 Take. for instance, the scene of Jo- seph Stanton's departure for posi- tion along the Mexican border Stan toms aged mother has seen to it that her boy" has been provided with a new suit of "store clothes"
 She stands at the gate of the little gravel path before the house and waves a sad farewell to him as he starts down the road to the depot But even through her tired, tear -dimmed eyes she spies something on the back of his coat It is the tag
 A few of the hair raisers in this live picture drama are Mexican raid, staged right in the real raid zone, while bands of Mexicans were crossing into this country; several western bar room fights and a plot to kill a young inventor resulting in a melee in which one of the several villains are killed
 The Auditorium was crowded 70 the doors, several people being turn ed away unable to get seats This production wills run three more days.
