THE TIGER MAN IS
GOOD WESTERN FILM

There are Il great many thrills in
the Hart picture, THE Tiger Man."
and today is it's last appearance at
the Lyceum. To see William S. Hart
in role OF a desperate gunman, in Il
photoplay is like re-reading the eX-
tinct dime novel. How the Tiger
Man" is regenerated by a pious wom-
an for whose sake he makes a sacri-
fee, Is Interestingly told. The vaude-
Vile show is one of good quality and
the program on the whole is excel
lent.
On Thursday charming Vivian Martin
comes in '"The Fair Barbarian" q
delightful story of the American girl
in England who can see nothing but
the Land of the Free. It is a. story
ideally suited to Vivian Martin; one
which deals with an American girl
who visits a small English town
with the soothing effect of a small
sized cyclone How she wins over the
crusty English spinster aunt and the
way she manages to bring on her own
romance and several others makes an
exceptionally attractive screen story.

Jack Pickford, is coming in "Huck

Is there anything you hate more
than to tell q story, and when you
have finished telling it, to realize that
you have told it to your auditor be
fore.
To my mind, it is really unl1ind to
let anyone so on telling story when
you recognize it.
OF course it is more or less uncom-
Portable for the raconteur to be liz
terrupted just as he is about to
launch forth. but not half so uncom-
Portable as to realize afterwards that
he has been boring you.
How One knows One Has Told 1t
Before.
To be sure. there is the chance
that he will not recognize this fact,
but it seems to me that anyone en-
doWed with any acumen at all will
know the minute he reaches his eli
max. How? BY the strained look
on his auditors face, the unnatural
appearance of the smile muscles, by
the quality of his laughter and the
slightly fiat tones which creep into
our voices whenever we thank for an
unWclcome gift, or comment on
twice told story, or in any other way
try to express emotions we do not
feel. Anyone who can appear Just
the same the second time he hears a
funny story as he did the first, should
not be wasting his talents in private
life; he houid be on the stage. 1t
seems to me that if | were q stage
manager, Id make that one of the
test for aspirants.
He'll Him Quickly III At All.
There are certain occasions when
one has to be cruol in order to be
kind. The surgeon who amputates
limb to prevent modification is cruel
to be kind. Also the person who am
putates u story to save the teller NOR
tification. But that sort of surgery
must be prompt. Don't let the ra-
contour get halfway through, before
you screw up your courage to the
sticking point. In that case, you
neither give him the pleasure Of tell
ing the story nor save him the dis
comfort of knowing he has bored
you.
Various Methods OF Breaking the
News.
And of course there are various
| methods of breaking the news One
! may say fatty, "Oh yes, / remem-
! Der, you told me that before" thus
making the would be raconteur feel

T stammered. But I certainly have
seen him before, although 1 cannot

how I can make it clear to YOU"
Don't be seven different varieties

There's something back of this that
needs clearing up, and I think I'd
better tackle this job. Now just re-
fresh your memory as the lawyers
say, and tell me everything you know
and surmise about the men next
door. It's probably all crazy nom
sense, but it won't do any hurt to

I looked at her in amazement Her
face was flushed, her eyes shining,
her tones strong and resonant. Not
