FOX'S TONIGHT

Frank Keenan in "The Silver Girl" is the attraction at Fox's tonight.
 In 'The Silver Girp' MT. Keenan has a role that he handles with ease and discrimination. AS Jefferson Hunter, part owner of the Rowling Coyote Mine, he marries Ann Kepple, daughter of an old friend. She be- comes lonely, however, and yearns for more company. So when she sees Hunter turn down a chance to go to New York she resents it. In time he grows to understand her desires and so before long they are settled in the big city, she to take up a life in so- ciety, he to attend to the business in tr1cacies of a big amalgamaton. How New York treats these two from the vast open places of the West; how 1t inserts itself between them for a time and makes their eXistences unhappy, and how finally the West gets in it's healing power and patches up the diff ferences that threatened to keep man and wife apart from each other for ever are events that are told in ab- sorbing detail in "The Silver Girl
 A funny Keystone comedy, the lat est Pathe News. Screen Monologues and a Harold Lloyd comedy complete the film program. Fox's vaudeville consists of Juliette, a dainty contor- tionist: Curtice and George, in 8 sing ing offering; Walsh and Austin, com edy singing and talking act; and the Rose Revue, 8 trio of entertainers in a very classy repertoire of songs and
 dances complete the bill.
 There will be no reguar perform ance at Fox's tomorrow, the New Britain Choral society giving their an- nual concert. For the last half of this week, the big police drama, From Headquarters" with Anita Stewart and Earle Williams, will be ] the feature picture offering. In From l Headquarters'' Anita Stewart DOT l trays girl who took vengeance into l her own hands and then fled to her
 father, a. police inspector, a relentless
 pursuer of all evil, who placed duty i above love. And the father who loved l the motherless child better than life ! what did he do? His duty as ar i officer of the law, or protect the name and perhaps the very life of his daughter. What did he do, and wha'
 she did, is portrayed with tremendou! 1 dramatic effect in From Headquar.
 ters" A funny Sunshine comedy en l titled '"The Houses of Terrible Scan
 dals,'' episode number two of '"Tht l Tigers Trail" and four new acts O 1 vaudeville will also be offered

POSLAM LIKES BAD CASES 0F
 FIERY ECZEMA

When Poslam takes hold of virulent and stubborn eczema, it soothes and cools at once, putting a stop to the terrific itching. On raw parts of the skin it feels immeasureably grateful. As Poslam continues to penetrate, there develops just the healing pro- cess needed. Contrast the ease of healing with the severity of the trou- ble, and Poslam's work seems remark able, indeed. One ounce of Poslam is worth a pound of ointment less effi- cient.
 Sold everywhere. For free sample, write to Emergency Laboratories, 243 West 47th St., New York City.
