Martin and Sessue Hayakawa will be

Forbidden Paths" The story runs
that Sato, a Jap, loves his ward, an
American girl. of great beauty and
talent. She. In turn. loves: q young dis
plomat, who goes to Mexico and is In
veigled into a marriage by an adven-
turess. Returning home he realizes his
true love, and Sato, studying the situa-
tion brings the two together by sacri-
ficing his own life and taking that of
the adventures. The story is thriller
from start to finish.
The big thing of the week, however,
will be in the presentation of that ia
nous masterpiece that has been shown
in every city of the land and has called
forth columns of controversy from the
newspapers, "The Honor System" to
be shown here at the Lyric on Satur-
day afternoon matinee at p. M; Sat-
urday night at Z and and Sunday
Afternoon at 2 p. m. Sunday night the

"The Honor System" Is one of the
greatest human stories ever written

old time horrors of prison life with it's
murders, suicides and tortures, with
the methods of today in which is rec
ognized that every prisoner, every man
and woman has a soul that is worth
saving. The story is told in eight big
parts and is grimly fascinating from
