There is seldom seen a picture with so much | life and ginger as this, one of the | most recent productions of the Great- er Vitagraph studios. It tells the ad- venturous story of Janet Warned, (played by that charming young star, May AnNgrson) who, although born in the East, finds it necessary, of circumstances over which she has no control, to start for her brother’s ranch, in the wildest part of the wild west. The train on which she is riding is held up, and she Is taken and held for ragsom by Cap- tain Sunlight, one of tie most daring desperados in the codntry. She is rescued at length, but her rescuer bears such a strong resemblance to her recent captor, that she is con- vinced that they are one and the same, and so at the first opportunity that offers itself, she holds up he would-be regcuer at the point of a pistol, and turns him over to the sheriff’s posse. Serious complications ensue, and it is only after the exer- cise of a clever bit of strategy and a pitched border battle, that catas- trophe is narrowly averted. ‘“The Fatal Ring” has never disappointed in the past, and the eighteenth chap- ter, which is also on the program, is no exception to its previous record. Evervthing is leading’ right up to a smashing big finish, and evidently the author of the story determined to make Pearl White's last escapade one of the most daring that she has ever perpetrated. A funny “Fable 1In Slang,” by George Ade, is also an in- teresting feature of the same show. The show will be continuous today. Another Blue Ribbon production will be the feature of the Sunday night show, and Earle Williams will star, together with Dorothy Kelly, in “The Maelstrom,” a big crook drama of And DOROTHY KELLY in THE MAELSTROM A Gripping Crook of the New York Underworld A REGIMENT OF TWO With Anita Stewart HAPPY-GO-LUCKY With Clara Kimball Young.

It's come, Madge!” The solemnity of Dicky's would have startled me even in day- time when fully awake. But he had rushed into our bedroom at half after two o'clock in the morning, having just come from the last train, and I as yet bewildered from sleep, so that voice and manner greatly alarmed voice Dicky?” 1 ex- ‘What has what is it, claimed, sitting up in bed. come?” But I knew, even before he had time to answer. For days we, with the rest of the world, had been wait- ing upon our lawmakers for the final decision as to our country’s entrance into the world war. Congress had met in final dramatic joint session the night before. I didn’t need the flaring headlines of the newspapers Dicky carried in his hand to tell me that America had at last cast her lot with the forces fighting for the world’s liberty and civilization. “We're in the war!” I said, and then, as the full realization of what it meant broke upon me, I clasped Dicky’s arm. “Oh, so wonderful and so ter- rible, 1 said brokenly. He sat down and put his arms around me, and for a few minutes we clung together as two awed children might have done. I imagine it was the feeling with which many of the citi- zens of the United States faced the news—a glad thrill, an awed hush. I have never felt closer in spirit to my husband than I did during those few first minutes of contemplation of the news.he had brought. It was as if I were a clear flame i which was burning away all the doubts and dif- ferences that had beset my path lately. The Haunting Retrospect. For days following our removal from the Brennan house to the new one we had bought upon the banks of a lovely lake such as dot our part of Long Island; T had kept out of Dicky’s way as much as possible. For the re- membrance of the phatograph of Grace Draper I had found in the box Dicky had hidden away behind the rafters—the box about which he had displayed such perturbation 4pon moving day—troubled me. g Of course, T had said nothing to im concerning it. I couldp’t with- out letting him know I h:uF investi- gated the contents aof the box, but AFTERNOON GOWN FOR THE RECEPTION lives across the lake with her father, and every night he paddles over to | { call, always pacifying the father with {a plug of tobacco. The story wos flmed high up in the California mountains, and, although taken the epring, the company was caught | in a blizzard and for days were cut | off from communication with the outstde warld. The supplies got low and Mr. Beban had to carry out his part in reality by cooking “flapjacks” for.the other members of the organi- , zation.

The Hawk' is the story of a so- ciety swindler with Paris as the scene of his operations. With the assist- ance of his wife Count George De Dazetta, better known as “The Hawk" reaps a rich living from the wealthy Parisians, and everything is going his way until his wife, in whom he has placed all trust and upon whom he depends on more than anyone else, falls in love with one of the intended | victims.

T heatergoers and Women Readers ~—~———— OF A WIFE GARRISON ! i the problem which the sight of the| photograph brought me had been present In my mind ever since, had accompanied all the petty trials which |/ the presence of Dicky's mother and, Cousin Agatha in the new home while | I was trying to ‘get settled” in- volved. 1 had not been able to see Lillian to ask her advice concerning this probable re-entry of Grace Draper into my husband’s life, for the friend to whom I fled for counsel in every dilemma was absent from the city on a business trip. And there Was no one else to whom I would dream of confiding any doubt of my husband. Madge Makes Her Fight. Far Lillian, with her keen discern- ment and her broad experience, prob- ably had a better knowledge of Dicky’s character than any other hu- man Being had, even than I would cver have. She had been my stanch support during the awful time when Dicky had gone to San Francisco, es- tranged from me, and even before she had wisely guided me in my treatment of Grace Draper when the beautiful girl had first begun to show her infatuation for my husband. Can- fiding in Lillian was a necessity to me, not the usual feminine luxury. But even Lillian seemed shadowy, remote to me now. There was no one in all the world but my husband as I clung to him. For rising in my heart was the eternal primitive selfish cry of woman: “I cannot let my man go to war. Any other man but mine!"” But not to my lips, thank Gud, not to my lips, 4id my mean-spirited wail ascend. I brought to bulwark my fal- tering spirit all the love of, country, the precepts of patriotism which my little mother had instilled into me from babyhood. And with my face crushed against Dicky’s rough sleeve I fought out my battle as I imagine many another American woman has done' since that never-to-be-forgotten night. And when, shaken to the innermost depths of my being, but steadfast in purpose, I at last raised my head, ready to stand shoulder to shaulder with my husband in any decision he should make, he said regretfully: _“Gee! I'd like to have been in Con- gfess today when that thing went through. It would be something to remember all one's life, eh, Madge Not a word as to his own respan- sibility to his country; simply a regret for the dramatic spectacle he had missed. mances of “Arms and the Girl,” the greatest picture having the present Miss Burke scored ‘a great success and came into favor with local audiences because of her work this week.

FADS AND FASHIONS There are some very large square handbags among the new ones. Suits are trimmed with buttons cov- ered with the same material. Sleeves are short for day wear and often long on evening gowns. Wolf fur is so beautifully treated this year as to be almost like fox. There are Chinese tunics of gor- geous silk. They open on the gide. Jersey cloth is still important ma- terial in fashionable dressmaking. “I don't mind washing dishes in other people’s homes,” a dear old lady Wwho has washed many, many dishes in the course of her life said to me the other day. as she insisted on tak- ing her stand by my dish drainer, “why I think that's real fun. All the dishes and pots and pans are differ- ent you know, and that makes it so much more interesting. Where I used to have to wash dishes for eight we had some old white dishes and I used to think, now if I could just have some different dishes and not have to look at those same dishes every day, I wouldn’t mind half so much!" There was something infinitely pa- thetic to me about that last state- ment. The Sameness That Kills. It was such a perfect and pitiful expression of the longing for change of some sort, even so slight a one as ‘‘different dishes,” that eats away the heart and courage of many a woman who is shut into the prison of a dull routine. Of course routine work has to be done by someone. It is inevitable that dishes shall be washed and rooms swept and lamps filled and beds made over and over and over again, day in day out. (“If only some of these things would stay done,” a resentful housekeeper often sighs to me.) But it isn’t inevitable that this routine shouldn’t be sometimes flavored with the spice of change. Even Changing » Room About Some- tizes Helps. Changes, oven small ones like SIDE TALKS BY RUTH CAMERON Just Little Changes changing a room about, buying a single new piece of furniture, having some new clothes made, rest the mind that has gotten cramped by the daily routine, as a shift of position rests cramped muscles. It is wonderful, too, how small ma- terial changes and pleasant little new interests can help people who are trying to get over some great loss, A woman who lost her only child a few years ago told me how she de- liberately thought up such little changes for herself and her husband. At her suggestion they bought com- plete new furniture for their bed- room, had electric lights installed and went on a visit to a relative who lived some thousand miles away. Of course these were infinitely little things com- pared to their great loss, but they helped these two people to get a new grip on life. Sometimes a Change Prolongs “ Pcople’s Lives. as . and Sometimes large changes, such a complete change of scenery surroundings will prolong peopld's lives for years. I have known middle aged people who made such changes or had them forced upon them, sud- denly start to grow young instead of old. Sometinfes 6t course the change kills instead of cures. I suppose that depends upon the stuff the patient is made of. AIRPLANE AMBULAN HOUSEHOLD NOTES Brown betty is better if the fruit overbalances the bread.
