part which relates to holding a mir

spired. not by any pronounccment of

by the silent testimony of his latest
photoplay production, Missing"
which forms the piece de resistance
OF the bill at Moore's Strand Theater

hood that his picture exerts an ap-
peal that emanates from the screen
all too seldom. The story is one
which has the war for a background.
but deals primarily with the thor
oughly wholesome domestic affairs of
two sisters. one Of whom is ambitious
for wealth and social prestige while
the other is content with the frugali-
ties Of life SO long as she may revel
in the love of her soldier husband.
When he Is reported missing in ac-

identified in field hospital where his
mind has become a blank as a result
OF shell shock. the ambitious sister
wells the truth, IL not treacherously
at least unscrupulously, in hope that
her sister then will wed a wealthy
suitor who worships her from afar.
A notable cast Is filmed in the lead

photodrama. The three screen favor

MOore's Garden-"Rose o. Paradise -
The ease with which Bessie Barris-
Gale might have played the title role
in 'Pollyana" on the speaking stage
is demonstrated by the appealing
charm Of her impersonation of Jimmy
in Paralta's newest photoplay, "Rose
o. Paradise" which constitutes the
feature Of the program at Moore's
Garden Theater through Tuesday of
this week. To the lives of those
whose paths led through the dark
places she brought the tonic Of =
sunny disposition. and when called
upon found it possible to cope wrtx
the unscrupulous trickery of an uncle
whose sole aim was to acquire the
fortune rightfully hers. The imme-
diate objects of her ministrations
were an aged cobbler. completely un-

kittens and q cherished violin.
The production is said to be one
which transcends the best in the way
Of artistic embellishment that Paralts
has yet offered, and the acting of a

less impressive play. Ths nhota=

Polp.-aHearts Of the worId.-

We are indebted to Mr.. Grifith for
rare glimpse into that now almost
forgotten world of ours that existed,
prosaicalIy enough, to be sure. be-
fore August, 1914.-and surely moth
ing could vivify more effectively
how good" that world was, and
how cheaply we held 1t. than the pic
ture of q village in Picardy as he
has rendered 1t; the picture which
absorbs the first forty minutes of
his film. Hearts Of the World"
which holds over at Polls this week.
What war meant to that village.
how 1t broke hearts, wrecked lives,
turned the clock Of time back ten
centuries. is the story that Mr. Grif-
nth has essayed to tell. He has
done 1t with Incompatible art, in
comparable drama, Incompatible
vividness. Perhaps he has fallen
short in imaginative power. Much
of that which he tells US we already
knew. But it has never been tolo
as he has told It. Every foot of the
film is as sharply cut as a dry-point
etching. 1t is more than possible
that Washington will demand more
than two week Of this remarkab BILE
attraction.
Loew's Columbia-Mary Pickford.
Mary Pickford, in q new photo
play, How Could You, Jean" was
shown at Loew's Columbia yester-
day and will remain the feature
for the entire week. How Could
You. Jean?" is probably the most
complete combination Of every form
Of screen entertainment that could
be devised. II contains everything
from slapstick comedy to tense
melodrama- 1t Is certainly unlike
anything that Mary Pickford has
done before, and furnishes her an
opportunity to further prove her
unrivaled abilities as an ingenue
comedian, and with her curls,
quaint mannerisms, adorable frocks
and an endless supply of screen
tricks, she runs the gamut from a
tough soubrette type to q pathetic
ingenue.
The story concerns the adyen-
lures Of Jean, a society girl, who
tries to earn her living as a cook.
Her lover is a wealthy young chap
who becomes hired man at the
country home where she is en-
ployed to be near her. Neither
knows the Others real identity. of
course, till the happy ending, which
Is brought about by series of
unique and humorous experiences.

WHY WE MUST SAVE FOOD.

The 1917 wheat crop In France was less than half normal. using the crop of 1913 as basis of comparison. There was a shortage of 176,00O, 900 bushels or 53.3 per cent The potato crop was only within one-third of nor nal. The sugar beet crop showed def,cit of 69 per cent. Her meat herds in the early fall showed short age of 1,sOO,O animals.
 Those are a few of the reasons America must feed her associates In the war. They are no longer able to feed themselves, and unless we come to the rescue are face to face with starvation. And starvation means de- feat in the war.
