SHE'S A VAMP ON
HONEYMOON TRIP
Spends Two Weeks in Woods
With Hubby Just Like
Any Other Lover.

NEW YORK, July 1s.-IIow should
"vamp" spend her honeymoon?
Two weeks ago, perhaps, this Ques-
ton might have been answered by a
description of torrid festas in some
Partisan quarter. where love and pas
sion are at their most picturesque.
But from now on the question is
answered. No less a person than Miss

Elmer Harris.
the showing whether Miss Daniels
was impersonating Lizbeth Ann Pal
mer, the incorrigible child of a much
harassed millionaire father, or
whether she was merely being her
self Certainly her performance was
convincing enough to make one be-
lieve that she was merely letting
the audience in on some Of her own
innocent escapades.
We first meet Lizbeth Ann while
she is playing baseball with a gang
of street urchins on a corner lot.
Unfortunately for the young lady
she Is sliding for home" at the very
moment when she is supposed to be
leaving home for a visit to New
York. II should be remarked here
that papa was much more' eager for
his child to take this trip than the
child was to go. because he was
sadly in need of a rest. whereas Liz
beth Ann was apparently never tired.
He gets her safely on the train
however and the daugher arrives in
New York, with her chaperon, an
elderly cousin. They dine at a
restaurant and when the cousin re-
marks at the high prices asked for
everything, Lizbeth Ann forthwith
lays a wager that she could live for
a whole week in the city on Is
cents. Which she promptly and
logically PROCEEDS to do, winning the
wager and a husband to boot, but
1t wouldn't be fair to those who ex-
pect to see the picture, to tell the
details of her amazing adventures.

The Wonder Girl. whose name IL not
