Elsie Ferguson, Annette Kellerman, BRYANT
Washburn, Norma Talmadge, Paul
White and William S. Hart to Be
Seen The Next Few DAYS.


Admirers of Elsie Ferguson, the beauti-
full and talented Aircraft star, have an
other treat in store for them when her
latest starring vehicle, ''The Marriage
Price" is presented Thursday. Miss Fer
guson has new and delightful role in
this photoplay, that of young society
girl who is impoverished when her father
is ruined and after he commits suicide
she is cast upon her own resources for
livelihood.
OF course it all turns out right in the
end, but the suspense is quite gripping
before Helen Tremaine's ship steers in
the harbor of love and happiness.
Also a Mack Sennett comedy. "Her
Blighted Love" will be shown Thursday.

William S. Hart, Wednesday.

They have put Bill Hart in stripes run
ming horizontally for his new artcraft pic
ture, ''The Poppy Girls Husband, :" which
will be seen Wednesday. Bill isn't averse
to wearing stripes as long as it is only in
pursuit of his art Also, be does not
mind sitting in cell so long as he knows
it is made of wood instead of steel.
He did hate to sacrifice his hair-but it
had to be. and he went to the barber's
cheerfully and had close trim. Juanita
Hansen, who is known far and wide for
her excellent screen work, is leading
woman. Capt Walter Long, late of the
U. S. Army, has fine role, and the 9TH
ers in the cast are all well known players.
The Barbary Coast affords colorful
background for the story-the under
world of San Francisco. Yet there is a
splendid moral to the plot and the story
in it's entirety is said to be one of the
best ever produced with William S. Hart
as star. 1t was written by Jack Boyle
and adapted to the screen by c. Gardner
| Sullivan.

Norma 1almadge, Monday

Norma Talmadge is the bright particu-
! lar star in the Colonial Theatre sky for
Monday, appearing in a powerful emo
tional play of love and money entitled
''Her Only Way"
Urged by her guardian to accept Paul
Belmont, who has sought her in marriage,
and who promises to restore her estate,
Lucille Westbrook, Miss Talmadge), is
torn between what she considers her duty
to the home of her fathers and her love
for young Joseph Marshall Eugene
O'Brien), who is poor and has no pros
poets.
Fearing that he is about to lose her, 10
bitterly denounces Lucille and her love of
money and angered by his lack of faith,
she sternly dismisses him, telling him
that when Belmont comes for his answer
it will be Eyes"
AS in a dream the girl finds herself
accepting Belmont, and the wedding sup
per like distorted picture floating upon
disordered brain is at hand. Even now
Belmont shocks her, for intoxicated, he
shows an easy familiarity with society
woman, Mrs. Randolph.
The climax is reached when Mrs. Ran
doiph, more and more enamored, urges
Belmont to divorce Lucille and make her
his bride.
Never had a play a more unexpected
ending than this one at the Graphic. 1t
is worth seeing.
Life of Gen. John ]. Pershing," Tuesday
Everybody in these days is anxious to
know all that they can about General
Pershing and the word that his life story
has been put into film will come as ex-
tremely welcome news. It is announced
that the Colonial Theatre will present the
great William Fox picture, 'The Land of
The Free" or "The Life of Gen.. John j
Pershing," on Tuesday.
There is no doubt that this is one of the
greatest moving pictures that has ever
been presented. 1t recounts tale such
as has never been told anywhere in the
world before. 1t is the first time that a
great mans biography has been written
on the films before it Was given to the
world, to any very large extent, through
a book.
/ Beyond its interest as historic subject
it happens that the story of the life of
this great man is one of the most inter-
esting that could possibly be told. The
film that will be seen here shows that ne
1 has had more adventure Ii his career
| than has fallen to the life of any man we
can remember.
| Also on Tuesday, the latest episode of
''The Lightning Raider" and a Mutt q,
jeff comedy.

VcnizeloS'of Greece, never fails to at tract great crowds. At the hotel where the American delegation is housed and at the Foreign office, Venizelos' ap- proach k always heralded by the ar rival of one of his Cretan soldiers ar rayed more brilliantly than a comic opera bandit.
 The Cretans who escort the Greek statesman are all more than six feet tall ard apparently have been chosen from various organizations as diff fcrcnt man appears daily, and the same uniform is never seen twice. The ,warthy CrctanS all have small waXed mustaches twisted into uptuned points and stand rigidly at attention for hours while awaiting M. Venize- los at the entrance to the hotel or the Foreign office. The jibes of small boys and the jokes of various allied soldiers who gather in wonderment never seem to disturb the imperturbable CretanS.
 Perhaps the most startling uniform worn by one of the guards consisted of white tights bound by tasSellej black silk cords at the knees, a red velvet blouse and sash, a red fez sur mounted by black silk taSsel so long that it falls below the waist and blach sandals with upturned toes topped by great blacl; silk pom poms. This cos tune was completed by an ivory handled knife two feet long thrust carelesSly into the sash.
 The knives and swords worn by the CrctanS are the chief feature of tho uniforms and make collectors of an tiouc weapons very envioGs. They are of all sizes and shapes and have

TIE RESPONSIBILITY
FOR N0N-ATTENDANCE
Coiored Pastors Say They Are to
Blame for Sunday Meetings
Situation.

In direct and emphatic statement
issued yesterday by Rev. 4. Payne and
Rev William Thomas, president and
secretary of the colored Baptist min
listers conference, fun responsibility is
assumed by the members OF the con-
ference for the failure OF the colored
people to accept the delayed permits
sion to attend the Sunday meetings

nestly discussed for some time, result
ing in a statement issued last week by
a member of the Sunday committee

pie did not attend the meetings.
The signed statement issued by the
colored pastors recites their eager
ness to aid in all the preliminary ar
engagements for the coming Of Mr..
Sunday, their readiness to contribute
to the expenses and the conferences
between churchmen Of both races.

would be admitted to the City Audito-
rum. were turned away. 1t tells OF
the conclusion which they finally
reached that they were not wanted,
and their efforts at evangelical work
among their own people since that
time.

have been highly successful, large
numbers of conversions being report
ed. The invitation to attend the Sun
day meetings came aftcr arrange
ments had been made for meetings

clined with the full approval Of the
