Polley, and “George Washington,” by Mrs. G. E. James; dances by twelve lit- tle boys nad girls; and songs of Washington’s time by Mrs. W. C. Ellis.

Extra chairs will be placed both on the main floor and in the gallery, so there is sure to be ample accom- modations for all. — e Aud Rushed by Plane Fails to Beat Death TUSCON, Arizona, Feb. 2.—Miss Aliee Hilliard, aged 26, step-daugh- ter of Robert Binghem Louis- villee, Kentucky, publisher, for whose use an oxygen chamber was brought here from New York by airplane, is dead as the result of pneumonia. by to LUCKIES” ted Protection— agalnstirritation= m«u h And Molmn—Pmoi Wm Keeps that “Toasted “Toasted” Flavor Ever Frosh ICKY STRIKE—60 modern minutes with du finest dance orchestras and w’m.,'fii y and Saturday evering over N.

Rex Parrott will play selecmms on the organ. In “Svengali,” Barrymore por- trays the master-hypnotist who won such fame on the stage a gen- eration ago, in “Trilby.” “Trilby,” which was written and illustrated by George Du Maurier first swept the English - speaking countries as a novel and won even greater acclaim as a stage play. It depicts with grim power the evil control of Svengali over the | pretty artists’ model of the Latin | Quarter in Paris. Sinister Music Master ‘Through the spell of the sinister | music-master, Trilby becomes. a great singer, leaves Paris with him and though pursued from place bo‘ place by Litttle Billee who loves | her, and by his stalwart friends| Taffy and the Laird, is oblivious| to them until the weird magic of | Svengali is miraculously broken. | “Svengali” is one of Barrymore's most dramatic roles. It provides a worthy vehicle with which to dem- | onstrate the almost hypnotic power | of the art which made his “Peter Tbertson,” “Richard” and “Hamlet” | unforgettable. Marian Marish as Trilby Marian Marsh, was .chosen by | the star to play the part of Trilby. | Others in the cast are Bramwell Fletcher, Donald Crisp, Lumsden | Hare, Carmel Myers, Luis Alberni, | Ferike Boros and Paul Porcasi. The part of Trilby is suffused not only with rare charm but| with ~dramatic power by Miss| Marsh. The flower-like delicacy of face and form which characterize Miss Marsh makes her Trilby alto- | gether lovely. 1 Screen Play By Alexander | The screen play is by J. Grubb| Alexander. Barney McGill did ¢ photography, and the sets are by | Anton Grot. Archie Mayo directad. | “Svengali” as a type of evil love is known all over the world and| the strangely haunting romance of | the model who fell under his un- canny dominance is a thing to be remembered. The play will be in- delibly fixed in the minds of those | who see it now with the advant- ages of the talking screen and with the masterly interpretation of Mr.| Barrymore. - DAILY EMPIHIS WANT ADS PAY PAINTING DECORATING KALSOMINING ESTIMATES FURNISHED ' FREE First Class Work Guaranteed J.
