oh, JoyI vivian's Here Again!

There are society" films, films
showing the struggles of the poor
to make a living, and films dealing
with the lives of the ultra-rich.
But photoplay that combines all
these phases of life and still others
is a rare treat 1t is to be found
in "The Trouble Buster" an at
tractively cheerful film starring
Vivian Martin at The Tabb Theatre,
Thursday, January 31st.
The scenario Of this picture was
written by Tom Forman, a popular
Paramount player, and Paul Willis,
who was in the cast of "The Birth
of Nation" makes his first APP
pearance in a leading role in sup
port of Miss Martin. This clever
young actor is only eighteen years
of age, yet has had considerable
screen experience. AS "Blackie,"
the newsboy who befriends Vivian
Martin as the pretty little peasant
girl stranded in great American
city, he has made a decided hit.
Mr.. Willis is of the dark eyed type
that forms so striking a contrast to
Miss Martins blond prettiness.

PERSONAL EQUATION

You've noticed the difference be-
tween days; how some of them
are filled with smoothly-fowing ac-
complishment, and how some of
them are cluttered up with exactly
the reverse! Just so.
You get up in the morning
some mOrnings-and begin by tell
ing yourself that life is JOY.
Your home is the best home ever.
Your wife and your children are
just right. You're lucky man
things are going along as they
ought to. So you tell yourself.
You go downtown to your bust
ness. You begin the detail of an

easily and naturally, running along
one after another and dovetailing
with a nicely that makes for com
pletest satisfaction.
And you go home that night with
a well defined idea that it has
been a pretty good day-that it's
pretty good little old world.
But there are OTHER days.
And from the rising of the sun
until the going down thereof, moth
ing goes right.
Folks get in your way-you
never knew before that there were
so many stupid, cantankerous peo-
pie in the world. Everything
snarls up and ties into hard knots
For all your Juggling and straining
you seem to get nowhere. And you
tell yourself, homeward bound
from your work, that it's been one
awful day; that it's a rotten world,
and that life is by no means what
its cracked up TO be.
But just what, after all, consti-
tutes the difference in these days9
Days are pretty much alike.
They've got each one its eight or
ten hours for work, and what's left
over for sleep and recreation.
Wasn't it really your fault, Mr..
Man, that you fell over your feet
all day long-those "other" daysf
Wasn't the difference just in
yourself; and the way you "got
up in the morningi It's the per-
soaal equation that makes most of
the real difference IN the days. The

HOW THE WAR BEGUN

On January the thirty first the news
was everywhere,
That Germany had declared ruth
less warefare;
They tried to rule the world, in the
beginning of the run.
SO this is the way the war begun.
On March the fourteenth the Rus
slams alone
Put the Gear Of Russia off of his
throne;
They eaid that being ruled by a
Gar was no fun,
SO this is the way the war begun
On April the sixth Uncle Sam de-
clared war,
And says to his men that the Kaiser
will be no more.
RE calls for volunteers, not just for
fun,
SO this is the way the war begun.
On June the twenty sixth our troops
landed in France,
Knowing that their homes will be in
the trench;
Over the border the Germans did
run,
SO this is the way the war begun.
On October the twenty seventh in
the Germans they didn't rely,
SO the first line trenches they did
occupy.
The Kaiser wanted to rule Germany
and so did his son,
SO this is the way the war begun.
On November the third an awful
thing occurred,
Our soldiers we're taken prisoners
without another word;
The Kaiser thought that the victory
he had won.
So this is the way the war begun.
On November the twenty-frst, the
Germans were left behind,
For the British have broken the |
IIindenburg line.
The Kaiser thought that his time
had come,
So this is the way the war begun. |
Dur soldiers are fighting, and have
been fighting ever since,
Some live in the camps aud some
in the trench.
The war will continue until the vic I
tory we will win,
So this is the way the war will end.
