A PROCLAMATION,

Because God, in the victory for right
eousness. and for the peace He has
given us. has. given us occasion for
great Joy, and because JOY is an emotion
that can be best expressed in song, and
because singing is one Of the greatest
unifying and Matchmaking Influences.
and because the week of Washington
birthday has been designated as The
the whole nation win unite as, mighty
chorus to sing the songs we love, IT is
deemed especially appropriate at this
time to suggest that the week Of Feb
ruary 22nd to 2Sth, inclusive be set
aside for the singing Of such songs as
Will express our joy, awaken our love
for God and country. stimulate true
spirit of devotion and loyalty, unite us
in our civic interests and develop that
spirit Of brotherhood which will make
US better people and greater nation.
Because Of the far-reaching influence
for good and the great Joy to be derived
from the observance Of The National
Week Of Song, also because great praise,
such as can best be given in song. is
this proclamation calls upon all who be-
lieve in America and Aemrican ideals to
Join earnestly in the observance of this

Dainty Viola Dana
Here Thursday

It's pretty hard TO find a more
adorable creature than, Viola Dana.
1t will be pretty hard, too, to find a
more entertaining play than The
Willow Tree" in which she will APP
pear at the Colonial theatre on
Thursday. 1t is a screen adaptation
by Metro of the famous Cohan e.
Harris stage success by J. II. Ben
rimo and Harrison Rhodes.
Extreme novelty may be said to be
the outstanding quality Of this new
Viola Dana vehicle, for laid as it is
in old Japan, the picture presents az
absorbing spectacle of life and love
in the land Of the rising sun. Miss
Dara's role is that of little Japan
csc maiden who comes to life from q
wooden image, and she invests the
character with all the droll naivette,
the delicious comedy, and the tender
patkos that distinguished Madame
Butterfly"

ADJUSTMENTS
"A SCREAM IN THE
MIGHT" AT THE
COLONIAL TODAY

Even standing room will be hard
to secure at the Colonial theatre this
afternoon and tonight for "A Scream
in the Night" the great Select pic
ture that has startled the whole
world will be given. So wonderful is
this play, so amazing the theory and
so alluring is Miss Ruth Budd. the
star who is making her first appear
ance on the screen, that it is pretty
certain the audiences which are sure
to pack the theatre will gaze in
amazement at the events unfolded on
the screen.
Miss Budd, for all her weight is
but 104, is a perfect specimen of
womanhood and the feats of strength
she performs would compel many a
man to give up. Yet for all this. the
star is winsomely feminine. Ger;
tainly, no other member Of her sex
and few Of the opposite sex can
swing through 40 or so feet Of space,
away aloft in the air, scale trees with
bewildering litheness Of movement
and leap from one undulating branch
to another as if it were an everyday
pastime. Yet Miss Budd does all
these things and many more in "a
Scream in the Night"
The story concerns Professor Sill
VIC who aspires to prove that man is
sprung from a monkey. The expert
ment with which he hopes to prove
the theory is a wild creature whom
he brings up in the jungles. The
creature, named Darwa, is taken to
civilization where society accepts her
as woman. Robert Hunter,
young aristocrat falls in love with
her. He is being congratulated by
his friends, when Silvio steps in and
declares that he is to be congratulate
ed upon the success Of his expert
ment. The creature is not q woman,
he explains, but the result Of his ex
periments, therefore, only half hu-
man.
Subsequent events seem to bear
out Professor Silvio's declarations
a most unique and highly dramatic
situation Darwa, the wild creature.
is pitted against an ape. Gifted
with reasoning power. she escapes a
fate worse than death by triumphing
over the ape. which is shown to have
only the power of imitation. 1t is in
this climax that the author refutcS
D3rwin's theory.
Another mighty interesting feature
on todays program will be the new
Christie comedy He Married His
Wife" The Outing Chester film will
also be of unusual interest as will
