'"The Man Who Won" offers q
strong appeal Everyone admires the
man who squares away and strikes
out upon his own resources fighting
his way to success when sneering fate
Expresses. He becmds the ideal and
example of others. He has a large
following. Such is the story in the
Vitagraph feature, starring Harry T.
Morey which will be shown at the
Lyric today and tomorrow.
The story was written by Cyrus
Townsend Brady, who has contributed
some big successes to Vitagraph. All
the atmosphere and beauty has been
brought out in the screen production
under the direction of Paul Scardon.
The play deals with the adventures
of Christopher Keene, (Morey) in
securing q vast quantity OF platinum
at time when all the world was
after the same thing. Mysterious
enemies attack him. He falls into the
hands of a powerful enemy who seeks
to deprive him of the fruits of his
toll. Fate plays a part and he loses
his memory His actions become sus-
picious, perhaps he is a spy That is
what the girl thought and tried to pre-
vent him from accomplishing his OBJ
ject
The elements of mystery and sns-
pense are consistent and the surprise
ending is the natural result of UNI
travelling the plot. 1t is not dragged
in by the ears as so many of the So
called surprise endings are. 1t is the
kind of play that holds the attention
in a tight grip until the final close out

Into the rural village for the setting
and into a woman's soul for thc
theme, David Wark Griffith has gone
for the materials or his new Aircraft
picture, True Heart Susie" which
will be shown at the "B" theater to-
day and tomorrow.
He has chosen three characters.
typical and definite in the domestic
life of America. familiar to the resi-
dents in every small place and most
large ones. One is that of lovable
loyal girl, who never has a chance to
marry but one man, and when that
nan passes her by, ages her soul with
tears, and wearies her days with
waiting.
Another is young man who goes
to college, returns with comical con-
ceit, the premier Of swains, as serious
to himself as the measles. And the
third is girl who considers marriage
reyer a union of hearts but a neccs-
sary patronage, a wife of subsidy
rather than of love.
