Presto, Change!" Is the
 Propram in This Photoplay.

Probably the most unusual pho toplay of the season is the Metro Yorke production 'The Haunted Paiamas," with Harold Lockwood as star, which was seen at the Coli scum theatre last night. Adapted from the we'll known novel by Francis Perry Elliott and directed by Fred J. Balshofer, this produc- tion partakes of the nature of a farce, an extravaganza, and pow erful dramatic story. Nothing like it has hitherto been seen on the screen. Further attractiveness is added by the clever work of the fayorite star, Harold Lockwood, and of his charming leading woman, Carmel Myers.
 Characters change about in "The Haunted Pajamas" like figures in a kaleidoscope The star changes before your eyes into a Chinaman; in the same way a blonde young man changes into a beautiful girl wfnth dark hair and eyes. Presto, change!" is the order of the day, and it is all the fault of those be- witched pajamas, made from silk from the looms of an ancient Chin csc Empress. Anyone who puts them on becomes instantly trans formed into someone else, and the complications are amazing. No one

Her Rookery
 Doesn't Rock.

With her own hands, Gladys Brockwell, star of the William Fox photoplay, "The Soul of Satan," has builded a rookery. Of course "her own hands" is purely figurative language here. To aid them, Miss Erockwell had to use d trOwel, a spade, no end of granite rocks, and an immense amount of mortar.
 Gladys rookery was constructed just before the door in her Holly wood, Cal, home. It has been there now, notwithstanding wind and weather, for several months. And there isn't a rock in it yet.
 At first, Gladys had to look in the dictionary to learn exactly what a rock was. When she discovered that it was nothing more nor less than a common crow, she wasn t unhappy about their having stayed away from the home she had built for them.
 Later, when she investigated the subject more deeply, and learned thdl roohS were eFeh lcee tH"ii crows, since they had no feathers on their faces, she was positively glad that such a peculiar bird was not snooping about her home.
 Now Gladys is trying to entice the sparrows to live in the rookery. But she says it is like trying to make a farmer live at the Ritz. "The Soul of Satan" will be

Farrar Picture Proves Nothing New Under the Sun.

The general impression IS that barbers were introduced into Amer icaica by the Spariards ana later by the Englihs and French settlers of the early days, but the research department of the ,. Artcrait Pie tures Corporation, iii doing the re .caYcI work for Geraldine Farrar's spectacular prodattion, "The We man God Forgot" which will be seen at the Coliseum tomorro" dis covered that ba CTS and barber shops existed i'll America Ions be fore Columbus Gisc overed thar the earth is round. The early Aztecs had complete barrier shops, with tbe exception of the striped pole and the bootblacks, hundreds of years before the arrival of Cortes. In place sf the steel razor, barbers used pieces of obsidian, a species of fedspar with which they moved the bristles from the chins of the Aztecs.

Mary Anderson Tells How She Is Helping Tick the Kaiser

ll4Ch lUc AdloCl'
 Now comes Mary Anderson with a word on how she expects to do her bit'' for Uncle Sam during the present war crisis. Miss Anderson says:
 ."I think the biggest and hardest thing l am going to do is to give up my husband. Perhaps you did not even know l had one, because for business reasons he does not get much publicity. I am hoping he will not have to go until May. That will give us some time togeth- CT. Of course if he is really needed he will go sooner.
 "0hi and I have been real indus trious with my needle. l started to knit scarf, but as l did not make much speed in that direction I de- cided to specialize on ambulance pillows.
 of course we have all helped the Red Cross, and we intend to con- tinue helping until we win the war-which I hope we will do with in the next year. l think the war will be over by this time next year, don't you?
 Another of the many ways to help is by buying Liberty Bonds. Every one of us must do every 'spickety bit we can. Then we will win all the sooner"
 Mary Anderson will appear Sat urday in picture at the Palace.

INDIVIDUAL PICTURES OF
BATTERY T. MEN GIVEN CITY

Danylle Va, Aug. 22.-P. w. Dun
ford, a local photogra pher, has viz
tually completed the panel picture of
Battery T. as it left Danville and
which he very generously offered to
the city of Danvlle as a permanent
record of this volunteer company. In
dividual negatives of 1879 men were
taken while the company was quar-
tered here and 4hr. Dunford has spent
the past several months on the heavy
task of retouching each negative. For
the past two months he has been
working late into the night on this
labor of love, and within a few days
1t will be ready to be presented to the
city
Mounted on large heavy card
board mounting measuring forty by
sixty inches, have been arranged So
prints of men in uniform and twenty
more have still to be mounted. When
this Is done the name of each man
Will be placed under every picture
and then it will be placed in a frame.
1t is perhaps the largest single group
ever assephled in Danville and will
be a valukHe acquisition to the city.
In middle Is q large size picture of
Captain II. a. Wiseman. He is sur
rounded by his officers and his SER
geants and corporals, the privates
being placed in even rows, twenty to
the row.
The mounting had TO be especially
ordered from New York and it is eX-
pected that n specially cast piece OF
glass will have to be secured for the
frame, owing to its unusual size.
