EMPIRE

Beautiful Kathlyn Williams, stately and polished, with that aristocratic bearing that so amply fits her for roles of patrician character, is admir- ably adapted to the role of Charity sCoe Cheever in We Cant Have Ev- erything," which is being shown at the Empire theatre today As the unhappy wife of a wealthy New York CT of weak moral character, she DOT trays the role with a refinement that is compelling in it's artistry. Miss
 Williams recently made a real success in another c. B. De Mille-Artcraft picture, "The Whispering Chorus" " and her innumerable characterizations in the past long ago stamped her as an actress of wonderful versatility and magnetic personality. She is said to have triumphed over all her prev
 ious roles however, in this latest characterization.
 Tomorrow: Mary Pickford in her
 greatest screen triumph, "The Eagles Mate."

WHATS GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF THEATRES AND AMUSEMENT
POLES

Another big crowd filled Polls the atre last night where Hearts of the World" is playing to capacity audi .ences.
 There is a wonderful glamour about tho picture. So vivid are some of the scenes that a woman who tainted yesterday when coming to her senses asked: Did John get over the top?" She thought she had seen some one she knew in England in the battle scene. There are many opportunities for persons to find someone they know for the photography was taken on the battle fields of France.
 In addition there is a 2O-piece or chestra playing specially cued music and the effects of battle behind the screen require ten persons to operate. Hearts of the World" came here from Boston where it had a five months run. It is a real picture with no papier mache scenery nor any ar tificialities of any kind. It is a story of a village, an old fashioned play with a new theme, in two parts, with scenario by NJ. Gaston de Telignac, translated into English by Capt. Vic tor Marier, and produced under the personal direction of that genius, D.. 1 w. Griffith. The leading players, Rob- ert Harron, Dorothy Gish, Lillian Gish, Ben Alexander, the six-year-old star, George Siegmann, George Faw- cett, and others, along with the pro- ducer, were under actual lombard ment half a score of times during the course of production. The picture re- quired IS months to make and is the last word in motion picture photo5- raphy. It shows the charge of tanks, march of legions, 10000 horses, a mill lion fighting men, squardons of air planes, fleets of Zeppelins, and miles of artillery. The battle scenes were taken on the battle fields pf France by special permission and with the CO., operation of the French and British governments.
 In the story, Robert HarrOn is the featured male member living in France at the outbreak of the war
 he is about to be married, but be- lieving that the country In which he lives is good enough to fight for, he leaves his sweetheart behind and en- lists. He does everything that can be expected of an American, being 9 Header of the French from the start [ He performs dangerous errands, is wounded in battle, but recovers and finally gets back to his sweetheart tc find her in the employ of Germans who occuply the town, as drudgerJ maid. Both are saved when the French army retakes the town. The film closes with the American soldier boys marching through the streets O:

The act is staged in a most artistic setting and with small dog which does his share ito add comedy it is leader of leading acts now playing vaudeville.
 On the screen Edith Story, starring in the metro masterpiece, The Silent Woman" brings a story of scandal and conceit in society life.

BUILDING UP BIG RESERVE OF FOOD
United States will Supply a Stock to Feed Civilized
 World for Years.

With a wheat crop forecast ap- preaching the billion bushel mark for 1918 and greatly increased acreage in all cereals, America has reached what may perhaps be its high water mark agriculturally during the war and will be in a position to store up a reserve against the time when many men still engaged in farming may be called into the army and other war work.
 The importance of this reserve was indicated by a cable recently received from the British ministry of food, ask ing that America continue to send all the food that can be given shipping space, to build up like reserve in Britain against possible lean years to come.
 With this demand it is impossible for the United States, even in the face of a good crop, to go back in any way to pre-War habits of eating and vast
