The Sign Invisible opened yesterday at the Breed theatre and played all day to capacity business, it having been announced as an Edgar Lewis production, featuring Mitchell Lewis and many of the same excellent ac- tors who made The Barrier the tre- mendous success it was.
 It is a story of what happens to an embittered and debased New York doctor who goes to the Canadian Northwest for change of scene and forgetfulness. Thrown among people who are entirely devoid of social pre- text to either good or evil the des- perate man soon finds himself the storm centre of a series of events which make mighty interesting pho toplay. There are two of the most vicious screen fights imaginable in both of which Lone Deer (Mitchell Lewis) the giant half breed hero, cov- CTS himself with glory. Some beau tiful love scenes occur between him and his Indian sweetheart Winona (Hedda Nova). Mabel Juline Scott as Jeanette Mercier. the clergyman's daughter, also does excellent work The picture play is of the outdoor type and is beautiful both as to scen- cry and photography.
 The Sign Invisible will be shown again today and Saturday. Other pie lures on the bill include the Hearst Pathe News and Charlie Chaplin in The Tramp.
