"TJIE OLD NEST GREAT
STORY OF MOTHERS LOVE.
STILL AT THE LYRIC

A genuine American photoplay
at last, 1.-THE Old Nest" story
of mother love and self-sacrifice
common to every family the world
over, which was shown at the
Lyric theater yesterday and is be-
ing repeated today, is the work or
Rupert Hughes, the eminent
American novelist. 1t was pro-
ducod by Goldwyn and directed by
Reginald Barker. There Is hume"
and there are tears in this plain
story of daily life as we all know
it. Not a person in the audience
was free from the grip of its APP
peal. II you like to laugh. II you
enjoy a gentle weeping spell, II
YOU want to see yourself, your
brothers and sisters, your father
and your mother on the screen, go
and see "The Old Nest"
While this story is gripping, 1t
has n different hold on the emo
lions than the usual thriller. There
isn't one melodramatic scene. Yet
this picture held the audience at
the Lyric theater more strongly
than any melodrama ever filmed.
And the reason is that the "Old
Nest" is a genuine story, beautiful
lv acted and excellently produced.
We have never seen one woman
portray the gradual aging mother
SO deftly as Mary Alden acted this
role. Her black hair became iron
grey. then siMery. And with the
passing Of the years, the physical
appearance and activity of the
mother kept pace with time. "The
Old Nest" is a picture that Amer
lea has been waiting for.

PREMIE R BRAND
WINS A VICTORY
OVER 0PP0NEN
Is Given an Overwhelming
Vote of Confidence: Sails
Saturday to Attend Arms
Limit Conference.

Paris, oct. 26 (by the Associated
Press) Premier BRAND will take
passage Saturday to attend the con-
ference on the limitation of arma-
llents at Washington, with the
prestige of one of the greatest VIC
tories of his political career,
The majority in the chamber OF
deputies, which seemed to be NOV
ing away from the premier yester-
day after Andre Tardieus attack
on tn cabinet, dwindled into lit
tie minority after the premier had
replied today
M. BRAND received a final vote
of confidence, 3S1 to 1856. The first
test of strength came on the ques-
ton Of priority for the order or
the day, the premier making the
demand. This was voted, S39 to
IFS, many deputies abstaining.
Many of those who voted against
priority, voted with the govern
ment on the question of contl-
dence.
Political passion had been
worked up to the highest pitch by
the aggressive attacks of M. Tar-
dieu yesterday, and when M. Her
riot, leader of the radicals, opened
counter attack today it soon be,
came tumult which required
more than an hour to calm, M
Herriot, abiding to M. Tardieu $
criticism of France going to wash
ington alone, said 1t was astonish-
iin@ that he should propose that
the premier proceed to the con-
ference with the European COAL
ton behind him.
