LUIS WEBER, STAR IN WHAT'S WORTH
 WHILE 1T STRAND
ReAl Apr plerRes

There opens at the Strand for three day engagement starting Sum- day, picture by Lois Weber entitled
 What's Worth While," that should be seen by every woman in Maricopa county. This story tells of beauti- full, blue blooded southern aristo- cratic girl, a creation of culture and refinement, who has been taught from her very babyhood, that to marry beneath her station was a crime almost as great as the prosti- tuition of her womanhood, and yet this girl, whose father is interested In oil wells in the west, meets and loves desperately a great big hand some, athletic westerner, known among his male friends as Square" Elton. Elton is interested with the girls father in the West and when she comes to know him, despite the gap between the two in breeding and in culture. she recognizes in this forceful westerner, the man she has always admired as possible mate. Tradition, family breeding and every thing cry out to her not to go to his arms, but that same instinct that has made the cave woman, clad only in leopard skins, nestle her head against the hairy chest of the victor in a battle of love for her, actuates her I choice. But this Elton fellow is no ommoner-underneat his broad l chest beats heart of pure gold and he realizes that to marry this girl l would be to wreck her happiness, so l he resigns and goes abroad to Europe l and on his return two years after, the I polished process is finished-he re- | turns an educated and fascinating man. From there on the story takes such a remarkable twist that 1t is stamped as one of the greatest pro- | auctions of the year. Lois Weber | who made it, is perhaps the greatest woman director in the world. She built this picture for Paramount, as the first of a series of super-specials
 to be made by her for this great re- leasing concern. This is the same picture that Grammar played at his palatial Rialto theater in Los Angeles
 and it is perhaps the best value the I Strand will show this summer ir | problem pictures. While the mar | riage question is ever the most prom | fnent in this creation, it is not marree l by any triangle feature, for it is 2 | big gripping clean love story of two
 real people. A he-man who arouse. the admiration of every woman ant
 a girl so loverable and so sweet tha- man spent two grinding years 1T
 Europe to perfect his education ant to polish himself that he might bt worthy of the woman he wanted fol his mate. Lois Weber has never made better picture.
 With the feature there will b.
 shown a very smart comedy, "A Dol lars Worth" and the ever generou:
 Pathe News. This picture remains
