THE STAR THEATRE,
next Friday, Dec. 9th,

is perhaps the strongest and
most delightful picture in which
she ever has appeared.
The story has to do with a
young woman who foisted upon
a rich man as his grand-child.
The imposture finally is exposed,
but the ultimate end is one of
supreme happiness for the young
woman. In the development of
this theme, which proves that a
rich man is, after all, poor man,
when he neither loves nor is
loved, there are many scenes Of
great dramatic power, filled with
thrills, and exerting a distinct
heart appeal.
Miss Clark is supported, in the
chief role of the aged millionaire,
by Frederick Warde, the distin-
guished tragedian, whose sue.
cess in the cinema field il no less
emphatic than that which re.
warded his genius as an actor on
the speaking stage. We believe
that you cannot afford to miss
seeing this great photoplay.
Sincerely yours,
w. G. ATKINSON,
: Manager.

Add to the combat units the air

pendent engineer and other fight
ing units, and the men we had
in action or ready to goin totaled
probably 100000 men. These
AZ divisions, a majority of them
being in action and the rest
ready to be sent in whenever the
; word came, totaled 1,975,00O, of
, whom 755,OO0 were combat
troops.

two armies of seven corps. The
First Army included Is divisions,

In addition, four divisions were

five were operating with the
French, leaving in reserve OF
