"Lure of Youth"

Lure of Youth" had it's first show
ing yesterday at the Eagle theatre.
The Metro special held the audience
in its spell until the very end. This
gripping picture portrays the strug-
giles of young playwright, unskilled
in the ways of sophisticated society,
who in a fury tears up his first manu-
script and returns to his home town
to try to forget the wound in his
heart.
Luther Reed, beside writing the
original story, adapted it Tor the
screen. Cleo Madison, William Conk-
lin, Gareth Hughes, LYDIA Knott, Will
liam Cartwright and Helen Weer,
all acquitted themselves well.
The picture was ao;y orected by
Philip E. Rosen, under personal SUI
pervision of Bayard Veil.er, director
of productions.
Lure of Youth" will again be the
attraction at the Eagle theatre to-
night.

Colonel Guilfoyle was one of those
officers who maintained the traditions
of the army with :. deep sense of
pride and of responsibility, and who,
while exercising every care in the
direction of his organization, reached
out sympathetic and helpful hand
toward those interests which are

the army he saw service through all
the days of the Indian troubles, and
at the beginning of his career in the

colonel when the Sixth cavalry was
ordered to Douglas at the outbreak
of the revolution in Mexico against
the authority of President Porifio
Diaz. He retired from that position
