the feature attraction at Loew's Co.
lumbia Theater. beginning today and
continuing until Wednesday. is a
story that is bound to dispelI dull
care and one that is liable to change
the routine of many homes of the

Reason"
In this fascinating comedy Tay-
lor Holmes plays the role of a hus-
band, slave to the charms of Ms
wife and a slave of habit. His wife,
satiated with the attentions her very
ardent husband has lavished upon
her. harkens with a responsive ear
to the message of the latest pastime
of society. the Swami, who has led
the better halves to believe that
they are weighed down with the
shackles of love-woman's individ-
ualism crushed by the ardent crea-
ture she is tied to. Demanding
freedom the wife forces friend hus-
band out into the open to seek a
reason for their separation. Then
the fun commences.

history in Washington by the an
nouncement that the showing of the

Line" starring Irene Castle, will
be continued another week, be gin

version of William Dudley Peiiey's
splendid saturday Evening Post story
with Bert Lytell pictured in the title
role. will be the chief photopIay at
traction at CrandalPs Metropolitan
Theater the first four days of this
week. beginning today. The leading
feminine role Is taken upon the
screen by Eileen Percy. who is cast
as the beautiful circus girl with
whom O'Day falls desperately in
love.
Throughout its length this subject
Is characterized by a type Of delight
ful humor that is strongly suggestive
OF Marx Twain at his best The chief
figure in the narrative is young
man who has evolved a philosophy of
life that entails the pursuit and per-
fection Of one thing at a time. When
the struggling circus comes to town,
three things suggest themselves as
worthy of Stradivarius O'Day's ef-
fort: First. to get a job with the
show; second, to learn to whip the
strong man, who loves the fascinat-
ing bareback rider; third. to become
at least a partner in the enterprise.
The manner in which all OF these
things are accomplished affords many
moments OF diverting comedy that
will take every real American back
to the days when the circus lot was
the biggest thing in life. The sup
porting cast is one to conture with.
and the production and photography
add realism to one OF the seasons

mainder OF the week will be shown

ated in this city by Joseph Santley

ject with its lively girls and divert
ing story. all of the charm OF the
original production has been retained.
The customary abbreviated picture
subjects and special orchestral fea-
lures will complete each bill.

more expensive.
