JUNEAU BOY IS
 GIVEN MENTION
 BY TACOMA PAP FER

 "Harry r. Williams, a student ir the radio school at Harvard, is the only son of MT. and Mrs. H II. Will Hams of Olympia, He has two well known uncles in Tacoma, Allan NJ Brown, with the Washington Hard ware Company. and Daniel Brown with the Crane Company.

Sermon for Girls
 in Soul Master"

A sermon for girls. showing them the folly of yielding to fiattery. is contained in The Soul Master" the Greater Vita- graph Blue Ribbon feature which wns presented at the Palace theatre last night.
 Earle Williams, perhaps the best liked leading man the screen stage today, is featured in the picture, bat the story centers around little Kather- inc Lewis who plays the role of his daughter. The climax of the story is built up from the time that the girl known as Ruth Carroll, consents to become companion to conscience less woman who acts as agent for an admirer of Ruth. She leaves her place as saleslady in the department store of her father, whose identity is unknown to her and falls into the trap that is set by the other woman and the wealthy admirer.
 Miss Lewis, who plays the role of the innocent young girl with unusual charm and appeal, says that during the entire time she was making the picture she thought of the perils to which girls are exposed in stores. "The chief danger as I see it." she ! declared, lis the trustfulness of the girls. Most of them are poor and un- derpaid, they work long hours. and their loves are empty. It is small wonder that when a designing woman apparently sincere. comes to them with an offer of q better environment and an easier life. they fall victims to the hattery and the sugary promises.
 .I think that in The Soul Master James Oliver Curwood, the author, has written splendid sermon fer girls. es- pecially those whom hard work has embittered."
