THEDA BARA WILL APPEAR
IN DU BARRY ON THURSDAY
Famous Actress, in Gowns Costing
Thousands, Will Star in Most
Wonderful Play at Palace.

The great William Fox photoplay,
"Du Barry" in which Theda Bara
does her most brilliant work, will
appear at the Palace theatre on
Thursday for a run of one day. This
play is the most wonderful creation
of its kind that has ever been pre-
sented on the films. All that Miss
Bara has done only gives a sugges-
ton of the charm and elaborateness
of this great production.
The story is a historic one, which
many have attempted to write, and
it has even been seen upon the stage,
but it remained for the films and
Miss Bara to give to the world the
revelation of the character of this
wonderful woman. 1t is known that
the great actress spent a long time
in studying The times of Louis XIV
and the woman who pervaded them,
before she attempted the creation of
this photoplay. There is no doubt
that she has succeeded in a marvel
GUS manner in grasping the subject,
and in putting it upon the screen.
One of the most remarkable fea-
lures of the play is the dresses that
Miss Bara wears, which were special
ly designed by her, after long con-
sultation with experts on the period
of Louis XIV. These dresses are pc
culiar, however, in one way. They
might easily appear in drawing rooms
today. Every one of them is a study
of the art of womanly .adornment,
and is a thing of beauty in itself.
Miss Bara has discovered and re-
vealed a thousand little details of the
womanly toilette which will be i'm
mensely interesting to every woman.
These secrets are revealed upon the
screen in a most fascinating way,
and make the film additionally at
tractive to all whom women charm.
In this play Miss Bara does her
best work, due to the fact that she
has grasped the possibilities of the
drama and has entered into it with a
spirit which only she possesses. There
are myriads of gorgeous scenes, each
filled with brilliancy and charm.

NOW The LUXURIOUS SERGE;
SKIRTS SHORTER BOTH WAYS
Once Inexpensive Fabric as Aristo-
cratic as Silk. Wool Scarcity
Sends Prices Soaring.

The output of wooden dress goods
is being so restricted by the govern
ment that the woman's serge skirt
will be luxury this year as COM
pared with the silk skirt which for
merly held the place of distinction,
according to Dawson merchants who
have returned from spring buying
trip to New York.
Wool scarcity is to be felt very
seriously in the garment trade, they
stated. Suit coats are to be very
much abbreviated by most manufac-
turers, and skirts are growing more
and more narrow. Serge skirts are
now priced as high as $47.50, a fabu-
lous sum as compared with the scale
Of values of few years ago.

OUR OWN FOOD AND FEED.

that if the south fails to make its

in forceful words he goes on:
1.-THE plain, hard truth is that with
40 million people withdrawn fram pro

business of destruction, i is not hui
