While the Spanish were minus three hun

Ere they scuttled their ships and pulled
for the shore.

No nation at war Is quite welcome you

"OH, JOHNNIE" FAST
 ROMANCE OF THE WEST

"Oh, Johnny," in which Louis Ben nison will be seen for the first time tonight at the Palace theatre has more than ordinary values of film comedy.
 When Adele Butler leaves her chum and partner, Johnny Burke, to live with her fashionable relatives on Long Island, she is just an un- spoiled and charming girl Her aunt and uncle, though of one of the old est families of the East, have most of the defects and few of the redeem ing qualities of their kind. They spoil the girl
 So much so that when Johnny appears to visit her she is at first inclined to be ashamed of her old chum and partner She is delighted to see him but after the charm and excitement of the meeting has worn off she sees his uncouth manners.
