Lamara Has ToIstoy Masterpiece
 Today

This is the final screen showing of Count Leo Tolstoy's master drama of human emotions. Resurrection" which has been holding the screen for three days at the Lamara. It is one of the really bik pictures to be played during the summer months and is by odds the finest vehicle that Pauline Fredericks has been seen in since she became a Paramount star. The story of the unhappy Russian girl betrayed and crushed to earth to build back to a good woman again is graphically told in that master way of the Tolstoy's and the Paramount people have given the story sumptuous setting.
 The Burton Holmes travelogue of The Switzerland of Canada is a sparkling snow picture of the noun tains of the sister country to the north. Tomorrow comes Huck and Tom, one of the greatest works of the late Mark Twain and perhaps the best book of its kind ever published. Those who have not enjoyed the delightful stories

The Red Cross Ready for Peace

THE following message has been telegraphed by the

in helping to win this and to relieve the suffering
growing out of it, constitutes something of which
American citizen has right to be proud Every Aer
Red Cross worker must feel of gratitude in
having had share in il all
THE moment is now come to prepare for peace
Until peace is really here and soldiers home there
can be no relaxation in any Red Cross effort incident to
active hostilities.
But even with peace, let no one suppose that the
work of the Red Cross finished Millions of American
boys still under arms. Thousands of them sick
and wounded Owing to the shortage in shipping, it may
take year more to bring boys home from France
But whatever the time protecting must be about
them and their families the whole period which
must elapse before the normal life of be
sumed.
"Our soldiers and sailors are enlisted until the Com
mandern-Chef tells them there is no more work for
them TO do in the war Let every Red Cross member and
worker-and this means both men and women-show
returning soldiers and sailors that to care for their
health welfare and happiness we are enlisted for no less
period than they
'"rhe cessation of will reveal picture Of misery
such as the world has before, especially in
the many countries which cannot clip themselves The
American people will expect the Red Cross to continue
to act as their agent in repairing broken spirits and
broken bodies. Peace terms and peace conditions will
determine how best minister to the vast stricken
great act of mercy the heart and spirit of the American
people must continue to be mobized through the Amer
lean Red Cross
"On behalf of the War Council, accordingly ask
each member of splendid body of workers through
out the land bear in mind the solemn obligation which
rests unon each one to carry on We cannot abate
instant in our efforts or in spirits. There will be
abundance Of work to do and specific advices will be
given but at the moment OF peace let no Red Cross
worker falter.
"Our spirits must call US to show that not the
roar of the blood of our own alone directs our
activities but that great people will continue to respond
greatly and freely to its obligations and opportunity to
serve"
