BIG DRAMA PROMISED
IN COMING FEATURE

THE Child Thou Gavest Me-, the
Perry N. Vekroff story which will be
shown at the Sugg Theatre for two
days starting Monday, sets forth in
logical and interesting manner the
complications that arise from SOL
emnized without the groom knowing
that his bride has child. The girl
herself does not know that the child
is still alive until after the wedding,
and then, for sufficient reason, she
refuses to reveal the identity of its
father.
Thus. before the echo of the we'd
ding march has died out, the couple
are estranFed, but are compelled to
live in the same house. The man is
filled with antipathy for his wife's
son and feeling that he has been
.iicked and cheated, devotes his life
