"KIDDER & KO" IS
FEATURE AT FOX'S

Bryant Washburn, the handsome
today in a 5-act comedy drama en-
titled "Kidder & Ko."
There is a guaranteed laugh IN
every ten feet of celluloid in the five
this talented and handsome young
light com edian Bryant Washburn,
who repeats the triumphs he first
reaped i nthe skinner series in
this amusing comedy in which youth
and love triumph over all the an
cient dogma, tradition hard luck and
unforeseen obstacles that beset a
young chap when he's trying to make
good in the game Of business and win
q girls love at one and the same
time. For the hero of "kidder &
Ko,' who rejoices in the name of
"Cuthbert," crowds a lot of romance
in this play; the way in which he
beats his pessimistic dad at his own
! game and wins the dearest, littlest
| girl in the world, all at one fell
| SWOOp, provides an entertainment
| brimful of interest for everybody.
Charlie Chaplin is right on hand
and there are several short dramas
! and comedies shown.
! Tomorrow's attraction at Fox's Is
! Theda Bara in an 1918 version of
The Two Orphans" a novel that has
won world wide fame, and has thrill
| led ten million hearts. In it Miss
| Bara plays a young girl who is not
of the vampire type, and in this pic
| ture her Versatility is shown to a re-
markable degree. 1t is one of the
! reasons why she has SO big q place
! in the hearts of picture fans. Miss
| Bara's reputation for dramatic art
! has been based not alone on the vam-
| pire woman she portrays, but also
| on the innocent womanly kind. She
| is a revelation in her perturbation of
Henriette in 1.-The Two Orphans"
| The story is we'll known; how Hem
| riette and Louise are sent to an uncle
! in Paris, after their parents have
! died. Henrette (Theda Bara), is
| beautiful. Louise is blind. LaF'leur
| intercepts the letter to the uncle He
| carries Henriette to his MASTER the
Marquis De Presles, libertine.
| Louise, alone and crying is taken
! care of by Pierre, a hunchback, who
pities her. Pierre's mother is a beg
| gar, and her other son is a, good for
nothing. The mother forces Louise
| TO beg. Pierre and his brother quar-
rel over Louise and Pierre kills his
| brother. From then on it is a story
| of battle to keep two innocent girls
| from the grip of the devil and is a
! gripping, powerful and human drama
up to its splendid climax. 1t will be
! shown at FoX's tomorrow only with
several other short featurettes

In the course of conservation the
detective said one specially interest

States detective service for seven
years" he said land they estimate
that ninety-five per cent. of all en-
