PALACE
The management of the Palace the
atre has made arrangements for the
showing of the sensational motion
picture, Some Wild Oats" which was
recently shown for several months in
Chicago, Milwaukee and New York,
breaking all records of attendance
The picture will be shown here
starting Dec. ). Some Wild Oats" is
the most daring. sensational and bene-
fetal motion picture that was ever
produced for the screen. It brings
the entire subject of venereal disease
before the public in d most effective
manner The picture leaves nothing
to ones imagination; it boldly puts
the subject before you in very frank
and inOffensive manner. Calling "a
spade a spade" it goes into details
and puts before you the naked truth.
Unlike the other motion pictures on
this subject, Some Wild Oats" has
an original story which is true to life,
entertaining and educational at the
same time. 1t is a story of a young
farmer boy who comes to the big city
to have his last fling before entering
the navy. His experience teaches one
a remarkable lesson.
The picture was made under the
auspices of the New York and Chica-
go health officials. The picture has
been endorsed by the city officials
and prominent citizens of Chicago,
New York, Milwaukee, Buffalo, St.
Louis. Kansas City and Omaha. On
account of the frankness of the sub
ject and scenes, it has been decided
by the management not to show this
picture to a mixed audience There
| fore, special shows will be held for
men only and special shows for wom-
en- only. The times for these shows
will be found in the theatre advertis-
! ing.

daughter should see this picture. It
will relieve them of the embarrassing
moments that parents have in explain
