"BRAss". AT LYcEu,I.

Brass the screen version or Charles c. Norris novel Of the same ramc. now showing at the Lyccum with Monte Blue and Marie Provost in the leading roles. Is one Of the best photoplays of the season. It is not preachment and is not an el- aboratc expose of the so-callcd di- vorce evil. It is human story of a young couple who. because theyswould not cooperate with each other, be- came estranged. The woman, friv- oous and gay. married again only to find, as she said. she had left a man for brute. The picture abounds in touching scenes, yet it is replete with mirth and presents a story that leaves a good, clean impression and a more sacred regard for the marriage rites. The final conclusion of the picture is not overdrawn. as ono fears as it comes to an end, but ends as it would in real life.
 On the same program is round ,, of "Fightins Blood's" latest series. This episode taken in the environs of the Hollywood motion picture colony, brings to Gale Galen new adventure and presents his comical little fight ing manager in some new comedy roles. It is tinged with enough romance to please The news reels also features the program.
 Another rolhcking Chaplin comedy is on the bill.
 The Lyceum is scoring distinct hit next week in de- Earting from it's regular policy of straight pictures by engaging Charles Abbott and his fashions and styles of 1924 show.

something worth seeing"
 Cuffy Bear turned to Peppers pleasant brother. Ginger. What does Pepper mean?" Cuffy inquired in 8 low voice.
 T don't know" was Gingers reply. If I were you 1 shouldn't pay much attention to what he says. He's a great splutterer. He's always making threats. But they never amount 10 anything. Pepper never loses race without losing his temper too. He'll tace tonight"
 But for once the pleasant brother was mistaken. To be sure, that even ing Pepper appeared on his spotted pony with the rest of the riders. He waited with them just outside the en- trance to the big show. Cdfy Bear couldn't help smiling when he saw Pepper. But Pepper Iaid no heed to CUny nor to anyone selsc. He was very busy. He was untying, with his teeth and his haids. the thongs that bound him to his saddle. And mo- body noticed what he was doing.

 After Jack hung up the telephone he turned to me and said, At last, Leslie, old Syd has come to see us and he has invited us to dine with him and go to show tonight"
 Why didn't you invite him out here. Jack" ] asked
 Simply because l knew that if you two old interpretive philoso- phcrs got together you would go incoming around among ideas that would be hard for me tc follow that I would not want to follow if could. We can have good dinner and see good show. Syd is mighty good company when he doesn't take either you or himself too seriously. He is much like you, Leslie, in many ways.
 There must have been two en- tirely different egos mixed up in my cosmos. They fight all tho time. know in my heart, dearest, that old Syd and you are both much better than I and yet feel there must have been something about me that isn't wholly unworthy, because if there was you wouldn't bother with me now, would you?'
 And then, title Marquise, Jack came over and put his arms around me and pulled me close, close to him and whispered, Dearest, I am sorry that I was such contemptiblc hound as to send you to your father for that money, but honestly you must know that 1 was like rat in hole. Oh, J know that you have been particii- larly decent to me in not twitting inc of the fact that you told mo to leave Harry Ellington alone, and down deep in my heart at the time knew you were right. however. much l might say to myself that you were narrow minded.
 "Syd told me the same things, dear. and ! may aB well confess to you that I don't expect him to be as magnsnimous as you. He is going to give me hell for going against his advice and he is going to throw in my face tho fac. that whenever | did take his advices came out all right
 Why. if l had taken syd's advice before we were married. if would have saved me lot of trouble at the time and ever since"
 Jack caught his breath when he said this, little Marquise, and quickly changed the subject as though he were afraid that would ask him some question that he didn't want 10 answer Copyright, 1928. ny NEA Service,

 race. The spotted pony ran rider less with the other Shctlands. To the astonishment of Cuffy Bear, who was watching everything, he scampered into the lead and beat by two lengths the bay pony ridden by the monkey Ginger. The spotted pony won the race. Ginger's pony came in second.
 To everyone's great amusement, a clown pretended to try to climb inc tent pole and catch Pepper. Tho clown stood on his head at the bot tom of the pole and started 10 climb it feet foremost He soon fell sprawl ing up on life ground. And the whole audience. laughed louder than ever.
 or course the people thought it vas all part of the show. They sup posed that Pepper and the clown act d like that at every performance.
 When Johnnie Green led Cufy away to put him in his cage for the night the disa greeable Pepper was stifl chatterins away at the top of the tent pole.
