When one wishes for a health-giv- Ing tonic. one yearns for something to laugh az as well as admire. Inas- much as pictures in which Douglas Fairbanks, the athletic, smiling Art craft star appears. provide both of these desirable elements, it follows that their health-g giving qualities are indisputable and of that nature which no physicians prescription, however carefully compounded, can provide.
 In Say. Young Fellow, the newest Fairbanks photoplay, which is at the Davis theatre, genial Doug" appears in a new and novel characterization quite different from many of his DOT trayals in recent pictures. Nr. Fair banks $ no cowboy. carrying an ar mory of weapons, no fixer. of things, as in "Mr Fix-lt," his previous pho toplay, but in this sterling production, written and directed by Joseph Hena- berry. he is a daring, impulsive. re- sourceful. optimistic newspaper re- porter. whose peculiar methods, en- phasized as they are by most vigorous action. make this one of the strongest characterizations of the brilliant Fair banks repertoire.
 The other feature is Roy Stewart in The Boss of Lazy Y. five-part west ern drama. and Current Events com pletes the show.

The star of Lest We Forget, beau tiful Rita Joliyet. was herself pas senger on the Lusitania on its ill., fated trip, and heard these immortal words of her fellow passenger. Charles Frohman. Why fear death? Death Is the most beautiful adventure in life. Her life was spared to be living witness to the brutality of the Huns.
 This great ten-act production pro vides a mighty panorama of events now historical, connected with the opening days of the war, and follows its progress through the lateer thrill ing months. A beautiful love story shines like a star through darkness, the roar of battle sometimes seeming like a mighty accompaniment to the human drama being played.
 The scenes of the Lusitania are es- pecially thrilling. The sailing, the vast crowds of friends wishing bon voyage to the passengers. flashes of various activities and amusements on board ship. are followed by the launching of the deadly torpedo from the German submarine, the filling of the vessel with water and the panic and excitement of the amazed pas sengers, who are shown plunging into the water, some swimming to small boats others sinking to the oceans S depth.
 Today is the last chance to see this massive production and there will be four shows at 1.30, 3.30, 6.15 and S.15. Matinee is r cents and evening 28 cents and this is the first time that this production has been shown at these prices.
