actors in New York also<tried it, but no one ever was found who could put into the part the yearning pity and pathos with which the prop boy had touched it.
 And so it was that Charles Emmet Mack came to the screen as an actor in Dream Street." So impress ed were the New York critics with his performance that several have ex- pressed the belief that another great screen career has started down the golden path along which MT. Grif- fifth has sent to many young actors.
 For the boy it was the fuIfilment of a dream.
 Mack came from a good old Irish family down in Scranton, Pa
 His mother was a lovely Irish col 1een whose gir1ish dream was to be a dancer. Instead she married and raised a family, but she taught all her children to dance and gave them the gift of laughter that is never far from an Irish heart.
 The boy went to the mines to the hard grinding work of the breakers; then he ran away with a circus where he slept in the tag end of the canvas. He worked in the side shows and rode the elephants, but the laughter never left his Irish heart. nor the poetry, either.
 Young Mack got a pretty thorough stage training in vaudeville before he came to motion pictures, but he made up his mind he was going to be a Griffith actor and gave up his other job to become a prop" boy at the big studio. And there he waited pa- tiently until his chance came. "Our dreams come true," says MT. Griffith, If we but dream aright."
 Dream Street. in which young Mack is featured is now being shown at Poli's.

heroine makes a charming figure and the whole production is filled with heart-throbs and human inteIess touches. such as only Lois Weber can give to a screen production. In conversing with some of hEs regular patrons Manager Rourke has discovered that many of the women are bringing their men folks-hus- bands Sweethearts-with them to try to obtain an answer to the per picking problem that forms the theme of the play. One girl from East Bridgeport, who confessed to a number of beaux, said she was going to bring each one of them. to see the picture, on different nights.
 Although the production played to Q S2 admission charge during i1s rec ord run at the Lyric theatre, New York, Manager James RourkeI has arranged to present the play here at the usual Empire poupla-r price scale. with continuous performances from 1:30 to 1O:30 and an augmented or chestra for the special musical set ting.

EMPIRE.
(Review.)


 Picture fans who have been scran1- bling for admission to the Empire theatre for the showing of Lois Web CTS spectacular drama, What Do Men Want?" were more than repaid for any inconvenience they may have suffered. for this soul-stirring drama of real American life with real Amer tcan people scored @ tremendous hit. What Do Men Want?'' is best de- scribed as a drama of, the hunt for happiness. Admirers of Mary Rob er<s Rinehart will remember that in Dangerous Day." one 'of the char acters asked the question, What Do Men Want?'', and What Do Men Want?" is the ques4i ion George Der nard Shaw makes one of his charac- ters ask in t'Hea.rtbreak House." Lois Weber asks the same question. but the answer she gives is more start ling than that of Mrs. Rinehart or Shaw. It would be unfair to go into too much detail in giving the story of the picture, for that would rob the playgoer of much of the surprise. Its st tuations might take place in any home, and the solution is dramatic and unusual. Claire Windsor as the

ADVICE TO THE
 LOVELORN
WIN HEIR LOVE.
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
 For years I have read your good
 advice, and so thought you might
 help me. Last October I met
 young man who after few months
 acquaintance, became my husband.
 His mother. whom I knew for years,
 liked at first, but through some lit
 tie misunderstanding she turned
 against me. When we were married
 he brought me to live with his moth CT. For a while everything went well, but now I am not satisfied. His mother idolizes him and tells him that it is me who is selfish. Now, Miss Fairfax, don't you think it is better for me to leave mother and son together and go out in the world and make my own living rather than to break two hearts to satisfy my own? PUZZLED. Since you recognize what a wonder | ful mother this woman has been to | the man you love, why doesn't your admiration for her impel you to try to win her love? Your job isn't to go out in the world and make your own living. It's to conquer what 1 lies right before you. Win the wo- | man who is your beloved's mother. | Set that task fairly before yourself 1 and try to love her for what she has | been to him.

LYRIC.

Nothing that has ever been done in stock can come anywhere near the Lyric production of Experience, which was greeted warmly by holiday audiences yesterday. A great play IS s'Experience,". as we all have heard, and there is no doubt that the pro duction by the Po1i Players in every way up to the original.
 ''Experience'' not only has charm ing story-and a dramatic one-but is flooded with beautiful scenic eff fleets, gorgeous costumes and more players in the cast than we've ever seen before in a stock show.
 In the role of " outh,' the leading character of George V. Hobart unique play, Minor Watson scored another great triumph, which was equa11ed only by Miss Eyeta Nudsen in the character of Love" Fine per formances were also contributed by Sophie Allen. Maud Blair, Lucille Poth, Roy E1kins and Frank McHugh, and the work of the remainder or the large vast was exceptionally artistic and pleasing.

Beauty Chats
By EDNA KENT FORBES

KEEP THE ELBOWS PRETTY. In these days of short sleeves, the elbows are always needing some sort of special care. They are so much exposed and so much rubbed that dirt and dust is grimed into them and the amount of scrubbing necessary to keep them clean dries them out so pick up more grlme than they did be- fore.
 The elbows must be treated with cold cream or with olive oil. This that it is less likely to take up the same amount of dirt. If you are stout so that the elbows are round and smooth you will never have very much trouble with them. But if you are talI-underweight- skin over the elbows will seem to be stretched and loose and to fall into all sorts of ugly lines and wrinkles.
 So, if you are thin, you must expect certain amount of trouble in keeping the elbows pretty. You can make them plump by rubbing them with warm cocoa butter every night. Or it you do not want to do this you can try the old fashioned method of sit. ting with your elbows in a saucer of warm olive oil. In about ten min uteS the skin will absorb a certain amount of this oil and what remains on the surface can be massaged into the arm or wiped off with a soft old cloth.
 After such a thorough massage with oil or cream, the elbows should be Tinsed in cold water or rubbed with a litt&sa, piece of ice if you have any handy. This astringent treatment tends to draw up the loose skin. Then when you dress to go out you will find that you can rub a little powder into the elbows and that they will be as soft and white and smooth looking as you could desire. An excellent Dlan is to rub a little cream into the elbows every time you rub any over the face.
 Peggy:-Using peroxide to bleach supertiuous hair on the face will dis courage the growth of these undesired hairs. The peroxide is very drying and in many cases has practically killed the roots of these hairs. If you do not favor electric needle tretatm ents you can keep down these hairs by pulling out the most noticeable ones with a pair Of tweezers.
 Blue Eyes:-Alligator pears are not particularly fattening. The most fat tening fruits are bananas and grapes.

 times Oliver Curwood has written & great number of successful stories of the Northwest. Several of these have been adapted to the screen. In a majority of cases they have made motion picture entertainment of an unusual nature and wholly worth.
 "Isobel or the Trails End" is of the later class. Curwood considers the story one of his best. Carewe, in adapting it, has given something exceptional to the screen.
 The picture reaches a high mark in entertainment value. Its story is one of simplicity, at the same time it presents characters so real and so hu- man that they demand attention throughous.

 An actor was missing. MT. Griffith glanced around the room and his eye was attracted by the slender figure of prop boy. He was a boy with a. pale sensitive face and glowing Irish eyes.
 Suppose you try it," said MT. Griffith. So the boy tried the difficult part of the weakling brother. There after some 26 of the best juvenile

PLAYA

A quartette of crowded houses yes terday packed the Plaza Theatre and registered much enthusiasm over the bill presented there. The much her aided feature "A Mans Home," un- der the direction of Ralph Ince has certainly fulfilled its advance billing. It is without doubt one of the best pictures that has been seen here th1s season An exceptional cast includ- ing Harry T.

 The late features with Listen Les ter'' and '"The Last Waltz" Francis K Donegan and Amelia Allen present ed their dancing speciality "Playtime' to an immense hit. The turn is one of the best staged pieces in Vaude- vile and with two mighty clever peo- pie in the leading roles, it deserved the success that was accorded it: Oliver and Merritt, a knockahout comedy turn were the laughing hit of the show. Lucille Du Bois was the singing hit. Andrews and Bla- chette were the musical hit. And there you have a show that is fast, entertaining, conical and contain ng

LENT.
By i. =. McEXOY.

Lent is a stretch of 80 days dur
ing which people deprive themselves
of things they cannot afford, or don't
really want anyway.
During this season the girls re-
ligiously deny themselves more than
three ice cream sodas day and they
dance under no circumstances eX-
cept on Monday, Wednesday a n
Saturday nights. They also studious-
" refrain from going TO any shows
except an occasional movie or a
matinee once a week or so.
For men. Lent is a season Of
painful reflection. They know that
Easter is at the other end Of 1t and
that means new clothes all around.
Lent was originally a time Of
prayer and fasting. These usually
60 together. If the cost Of food
goes much higher. Ash Wednesday
will be moved up to Jan. l, and we
can observe, at least, the fasting
part all the year around. As for
prayer. most people only know the
prayers beginning with: Give Us
Oh Lord" and have forgotten those
beginning with: I'VE Give Thee
Thanks" At nearly every dinner

More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

ALL FOR THE LOVE OF THE
LADIES.
At last we have fathomed the reason
Why none Of the popular schools
Have adopted a course in the Ethics
OF Force
OF the Marquis of oueensberry
Rules.
For what could an undergrad profit,
By counter or wallop or swing,
Or a trip hammer punch TO another
chaps lunch
II his girl didn't sit by the ring?
The glory that followed a Knockout
The smashes that went TO the
Jaws,
No fultter could start in feminine
heart
Or waken sweet COS Of applause;
And only cut lips and confusions
The boxers received for their
pains.
When collegiate sport of the red
blooded sort
Was marked by the absence Of
james.
The ring had small favor in college
When fashion on fisticuffs frown-
ed,
1t wasn't much fun for the fellow
who won
without any ladies' around
And many a future Jack Dempsey
His talent at bruising concealed.
And went after fame IN the sissified
game,
That is played on the gridironed
field.
But now that it's shown that prize
fight
A social occasion can be.
And popular pugs exchange hay
maker slugs
At many an afternoon tea,
The mills at the schools are attended
BY all the society vamps.
And the gyms full Of chaps with
blue dents on their maps
Who are studying hard TO be
champs.
