ACCUSED OF THEFT
GIRL LEAVES HOME
Department Store Employe is Charged
BY Her Father of Stealing
Dresses.

Anna Hedder was accused of steal
ing finery from a department store by
her father, and at the suggestion Of
the<proprietor, Mr.. John Wallace, he
consented to her arrest. But before
the arrest could be made Anna proved,
much to the chagrin of her father, that
the clothes were paid for by several
wealthy friends.
The sudden accusation of Mr. He'd
der against his daughter came about
through Annals insistence on attend
ing party with several girl friends.
Mr.. Hedder, of humble circumstances,
and of apparently old fashioned ideas,
refused to allow his daughter to at
tend the social. Anna thereupon took
the matter into her own hands, in
sisting that since she was old enough
she had a perfect right to lead her
own life. But the beautiful clothes on
her back amazed Mr.. Hedder, and upon
receiving an unsatisfactory answer
from his daughter he phoned the de-
partment store where Anna was en-
ployed. Mr. Wallace, the department
store proprietor, anxious to curb the
many thefts in his store, Immediately
visited the Hedder home and identi-
fled the clothing worn by Anna as
having been reported missing by the
store detective. It was then that Mr.
Wallace, upon learning of the girls
incorrigible ways from her father.
suggested that she be sent to girls
home. The affair came to climax
when Anna revealed q receipt for the
clothes, and in her anger she left her
home. Up to a late hour the police
found no trace of her.
This stirring domestic story is em-
bodied in the screen version of the
famous stage play called why Girls
Leave Home" which will be shown at
the Isis theatre Monday and Tuesday.
Anna @. Nilsson, the well known mo-
tion picture actress, plays the role Of
Anna Hedder and is said to give a
vivid impersonation of a young girl
who lis forced to leave home on ac-
count OF the bigotry and cruelty of her
parents. Other members of the cast
include Claude King. Maurine Powers,
Kathryn Perry (Mrs. Owen Moore),
Dan Mason. Julia Swayne Gordon and
others equally well known to screen
fans.
