Great Picture for Red Cross Benefit

Marguerite Clark in "Bab's Bur-
glar," will be the great picture shown
twice at the Gem theatre Wednesday
evening of next week for the benefit
of the Red Cross. General admission
25c, and children under II years of
age will go in for 15c. The shows
will begin at 7.15 and S.45. The la
dies will sell tickets for these shows
ana you may expect them to see you.
Marguerite Clark never plays in
anything but the very best pictures
and is a favorite always. Those who
saw her in "Snow White" recently
were enthusiastic about her and those
who know the story of "Bab's Burg
lar" say this will be every bit as
good. This generous offer of the Gem
should draw crowded houses and net
the Red Cross, which has been oblig-
ed to go into debt, a good amount.
Mary Roberts Rinehart is the
author of the story.
