THE THING We
LOVE" new PLAY
Wallace Reid Picture, A Story OF
Spies and Intrigue, Will Be
Shown At Dixie.

"The Thing We Love-" the latest
Wallace Reid picture produced by
Paramount is one of the strongest
things that brilliant young star
has ever done 1t deals with patriot
ism in its highest form and the story
is as follows:
Rodney Sheridan (Wallace Reid)
is engaged to Margaret Kenwood,
daughter of the president of the
Kenwood Manufacturing Company,
of which Roger is vice-president HIM
self. Both Rodney and Margaret
are strongly anti-war when the ac-
ton of the story commences, which
is at about the outbreak of the .Eu-
ropean war.
When Margaret's' father pledges
his plant to the manufacture of mu-
ntions, Roger refuses to assist and
resigns his position. He also starts
a violent campaign against the pro-
cedure and against all war in gener-
al. Margaret's father, enraged, plans
to frame a charge of embezzlement
against Rodney, which he carries
out.
Rodney is sent to the penitentiary
and his life practically ruined altho
he has one staunch friend through
it all-Margaret, although he does
not always realize it.
How he is drawn into a terrible
plot of the German agents to wreck
whole munition plant and how he
narrowly escapes committing the a.
trocity and is rescued just in time
by one wholly fine and loyal Ameri-
can citizen of German parentage who
has been standing firm by the land
of his adoption, makes up a tale that
will touch intimately every single hui
man being in this great land.
Manager Lawrence of the Dixie
has announced that "The Thing We
Love" will be shown at his theatre on
Saturday, May 18th.
