that In the beginning among the early

have been less pagan and more char

that may be, no wiser choice could
have been made by the missionaries
in China toward establishing genuine
national Thanksgiving feast than the
selection of the day Of the popular

;;'The Right to Love"
at Opera House

Mae Murray, the pretty film
actress who has scored recently in
"On With the Dance and the
"The Right to Love-" made an
unexpected debut into motion pic
lures. She was formerly a stage
dancer and was featured in the
Ziegfeld Follies of 1915. Her act
opened with the showing of few
feet of film, in which Miss Murray
was depicted rnnning down the
aisle of the theatre to the stage.
At this point the curtain lifted
and disclosed the dancer in person
Standing before the footlights in
identically the same costume she
wore on the screen.
1t happened that on the opening
night Of the Follies several film
producers we're present. All of
them noted the excellent manner
in which Miss Murray screened
and saw possibilities in her as a
photoplay actress. The result was
that the following morning she
received no less than five offers to
appear in motion pictures. She
accepted the one made by Adolph
lukor, because the picture which
he had in mind for her. "Sweet
Kitty Bellairs," was her fayorite
story.
Miss Murray is at present ap-
pearing with David Powell in
George Fitzmaurice productions.
The second one of these is THE
Right to Love" which is on view
at the Opera House Thursday and
Friday OF next week. It is a
Paramount production.
