But 1 was certain that Dicky had caught a swift glimpse of me before I had seen him. His action was too claborately natural to be absolutely spontaneous.

T must get away from here!” whispered wildly, for with ical injustice I felt as if Dr. were alone to blame for my suffer- ing. If he understood my feeling, he made no sign, his voice retaining its cool, professional tone. “Of course,” he assented. “I will call a taxi at once. You will wish to go to M Underwood'’s, I suppose.

Fig- uring her individual work, without giving thought to the enormous ex- pense attached to the production or the wonderful scenic effects secured, Miss Thomas scores one of the big- gest hits of the year. In “An Even Break,” Miss Thomas plays the part of Gotham’s favorite just as she did for several seasons in real life, when as the star of Zieg- field productions she set the heart of -0ld New York awhirl. How she is won by her childhood sweetheart is a tale worth watching, but the de- tails, the scenic effects, the lighting masterpieces, the innovations in the line of special attractions, and the company of artists with which the | Triangle Company backed this star, go a long way toward making the picture the hig hit it has proven to be. Special sets that occupied an en- tire stage and cost as high as $6,000 apiece, and a bevy of girls experienced in the work of the choruses of New York’s most famous dining places and theatrical productions form but a small part of the features introduced while the engrossing story is told. Briefly, Olive Thomas is one of the most famous actresses now appearing on the stage or in pictures. Her fame is international, and she is sought wherever she goes. Realizing that the general public would appre- ciate seeing the “talk of New York,” she was secured for the pictures and appeared in “Madcap Madge.” She made a hit. Then she w secured for another picture, and “An Kven Break” was chosen as the vehicle. Directors were given a free hand, and the vesult is a picture extraordinar One scene, for instance, a reproduc- tion of Minot's Cafe, which provides the background for considerable of the play’s action, measures 100 by 200 feet and other lavish sets set a new mark in motion picture grandeur. The story itself deals partly with life in a small town, shifting then to New York. Throughout, Miss Thomas is the center of attraction, and is cos- tumed in a manner to which a Zieg- field star alone does justice. An added feature for three d: will be “Thirst,” a Keystone comed that is a comedy, and the Lyceum Weekly, presenting the latest news of the day. This afternoon and eve- ning Charles Ray, in “Sudden Jim,” and Mary Pickford, in *“Poor Little Peppina,” a double feature program, will be the attraction.

HARTFORD “THE YANKEE WAY” AT FOX'S THEATER Today brings an altogether unusual show to Fox's theater. With the most popular star in the business as headliner, and the first episode of GEORGE WALSH ‘DIRECTION WILLIAM FOC At Fox's Today and Tomorrow in His Biggest Hit, *“The Yankee Way.” {a big new serial, besides the third | chapter of another, and iany other superior short subjects, there is ever reason why some mighty good enter- i tainment should be expected.

Naturally, she was a blonde, and George, after no de- liberation, came to the conclusion that she had better move to America, to keep him from being lonesome on his return.. The young lady had her own ideas on the subject, however, and George finally had to win her in the Yankee Way. Another feature of great interest on the same program is the first episode of Pathe's greatest serial, “The Seven Pearls Mollie King is co-starved with Creigh- ton Hale.

Why =T SIDE TALKS BY RUTH OCAMERON GRS Take a Chance I knew a man whose first thought every minute was to play safe. He never did anything or went anywhere without thinking first if there was anything unsafe in it.

And I never knew any one get less out of life than he did. “Just the same,” reverted the critic circling back in the manner of his kind to the point from which’ the Authorman had thought to pry him, “Just the same I think it's taking a bigger risk than the thing is worth.” The Things One Could Say.
