T Ne REVELATIONS By ADEL® - X'S day and Tomorrow 'ROY STEWART A Ripping Wild Western & With a Thousand Theills. - How Madge Managed to Deave Katherine and . Jack Together. “Well, Lil! This party!” Dicky sprawled at ease befare the glowing fire in Lillian Under- wood's library. He was smoking his favorite brand of cigar, and I knew from the expression on his face that he was well content with his sur- roundings. 1 Lillian smiled at him brightly. “Of course it is,” she sald. “Did You ever know a party of mine that wasn’t?” . “Haan’t ®he the crust, though?” Dicky demanded lazily of Katherihe Sonnot, Jack Bickett and me. I was seated between my brother- cousin and his flancee, a position into which Katherine had maneuvered mie, because of the cross-purposes at which she and Jack were. There had been no opportunity as yet for them to clear up their misunderstanding. Indeed, I rather suspected that Kath- erine, gentle as she was, was quite willing to let her unrepsoning, jealous lover suffer a little longer before she told him of her decision. to stay in this country instead of going back to the hospital unit in France, the work of which Jack was so jealous because of Dr. Braithwaite, the eminent sur- geon commanding it. “Invites us to a, feed,” Dicky went on, with-a wary eye on Lillian, how- ever, ‘“‘makes us work like dogs build- ing fires and cooking our own grub, and then when Old and Valued Friend tries to spread a bit of salve about it, begins to brag about her ather blow- outs. I didn’t think it of you, Lil, really I didn’t. It’s a wonder you don’t; make us wash the dishes.” ‘Why Katherine Waited. ¢ “And that’s just what you’ll do, my Dicky bird,” Lillian retorted sternly, “if I hear any more remarks touchin’ on or appertainin’ to my well-known haspitality. It's only because I had some small regard for my china that I didn’t set you and Jack at it before. But there are plenty of pots and pans which Betty will be mighty glad to see out of the way tomorrow.” t “For the love of Mike, Dick,” put in Jack, “if you're reckless of your own life, think of me and go easy. I have no desire to dally with dish- water tonight.” I felt a sudden throb of sympathy for my brother-cousin as I heard his ‘voice and caught the note of suffering beneath the light bantering words. I had known every intonation of his voice from childhood, and he could Dot fool me at least with an assump- ti6n of gayety. is sure some JimBenton” CHARLIE CHAPLIN IN “THE DENTIST” “WHEN WAR MEANT PEACE” PATHE NEWS. . :MARGUERITE CLARK _IN A MILILION LAUGHS | “BAB’S BURGLAR” Music by I‘.hg Lyceum HIGH CLASS VAUDEVILLE, WILLIARD’S TEMPLE OF WS OF A WIFE GARRISON The girl he loved heard the under- note and recognized it, too. I knew it by the drawing of her breath in an almost imperceptible gasp. It is a tiny mannerism of hers when ady emotion grips her strongly. I had no- ticed it when she told me the story of Jack’s cruel jealousy. I was sure that as soon as an opportunity arose Shel tp.+ haye proved popular, and justly would tell Jack of the change in her plans which would mean so much to him. Knitting-Bag Camouflage. Of course, she couldn’t tell him that she hall given up her work in the hos- pital unit in France to enter the se- cret service here. But she c¢ould say that she was going to take care of Lillian's mother-in-law. Lillian had stipulated ‘that both Katherine's can- nection and my connection with the important work in which she had so high a place msut be kept a secret from both Dicky and Jack. It had hurt me, too, when she had made the stipulation. I knew, of course, that she didn’t know Jack Bickett well enough to make him a sharer of her work. But Dicky was one of her dearest and oldest friends. She had known him far longer than she had me. She had once made a wonderful sacrifice for his sake. The conviction was slowly hammering at my heart that it was because she could not fully trust my husband’'s discretion that she didn’t wish me to make a confidant of him. Of his loy- alty to her, to me and his cauntry I was sure she had no doubt. But that she feared his indiscreet and some- what garrulous tongue, especially when loosened by the wine he some- times drank, I was certain, and the knowledge made me miserable. I think Lillian with her almost cairvoyant understanding of other people’s minds felt the unhappiness which three of us, her guests, were experiencing. For she hastened to change the subject to one thoroughly innocuous. ‘“What do you think of my knitting bag, folks?” she asked, taking a most gorgeous affair from the table near her and hglding it out for inspection. “I bar your comments, Dicky-bird, you're a heathen anyway. But Kath- erine and Madge and Jack are civil- ized. They’'ll say something nice about it.” Her words gave me an opportunity for which I had been looking since I had heard the undertone of suffering in Jack's tones. I rose from my seat and went to Lillian’s side, ostensibly to examine the knitting bag, in reality to leave Jack and Katherine alone to- gether. o MUSIC Biggest musical act in country.

Miss Clark, during her career on the screen has appeared in numerous good pictures—offerings 80; but this, her latest picture, com- pletely outdaes previous attempts. Bab Archibald is the yetinger of two sisters, just of the boarding school age, and her doting father gives her a Vearly allowance of $1,000, which is to provide for all her bills during the school term. Bab, unused to the great wealth, proceeds to spend it, and she does a thorough job, to say the least. Five bunches of violets, with the precious flowers selling at $5 per hundred, eat their way into the bank roll and a high-powered automobile, Wwhich seems to need mwore extra tires than the average car, proves an item of expense that brings the wad down soon. Bab had been considerably peeved because of the lack of .atten- tion on the part of the family toward her, in favor of an elder sister, and to get her sister out of the way in order to claim the attention of the family | for herself, Bab plans to get her mar- ried to a young man who appears to show no sign of ever pepping the vital question. However, luck is against the girl’s plans, for when she mistakes the sister and her flance in an attempt at eloping for burglars and causes them ta be locked in the dining room while | she fires an old revolver to attract at- | tention, the job is plainly botched up. | The picture programs at the Ly- ! ceum will be more pleasant hereafter ! through the acquisition of a five-piece ! orchestra. The orchestra starts today | and excellent results are expected. Every member is an adept at his peculiar line, and, with Prof. Ru-| dolph Ehrler leading, the organization should measure to the highest stan- | dard. The Lyceum Weekly, Keystone | Comedy and other pictures will be on | the program for the first three days. | The Lyceum has it if it is good, this | Wweek being no exception. f EVA TANGUAY AS “THE WILD GIRL” Events in the moving picture world have been happening rapidly recent- ly, all theaters vieing with one an- other to obtain the biggest and best attractions for the holi season.

It is a vivid ! drama of the West when it was truly wild, and has to do with bandits, clashes between sheep-herders and cow-punchers, and all the other thrilling situations that can, arise out in the country where a man is measured according to man’s stand- ards. Jim Benton, a rising young cattle-rancher, is being constantly an- noved by the shcep interests of his territory, and when his enemies, as a last resort to try his patience, dam up the stream that supplies his stock with water, Jim naturally buckles on his gat, calls the gang, and goes a-hunting. But there is a little woman in the case, and she ei- tracts a promise from Jim that he won't use his shooting-irons unless it is a case of self-defense. But when the time comes, something occurs that makes Jim blind with rage, and he itterll: forgets his promise: Re- sult—one dead sheriff, and Jim on trial for his life. The way of the law In that country is speedy, and within a short time Jim feels the noose tightening about his neck. But fate lad not decreed that he should | die for a crime which he had not committed, and how he is saved from i the shadows of the gallows as the rope is chafing his neck is the big surprise in “The Learnin’ of Jim Ben- ton.”” But that is not the only treat of the show, for that monarch of fun, Charlie Chaplin returns to Fox's in | the screamingest two-reel comedy hit ' £ that he has ever made, “The Cham-| A fetching coat in mole color vel- pion.” There are a score of absurdly OWrs, belted at the waist and trimmed funny situations in this picture, and )“‘ the neck with a draped collar. the culmination of the whole thing | finds Charlie knocking out the terror of, the Pacific coast, by means which the Marquis of Queensbury never thought of when he compiled his well-known set of rules, for horse- shoes ag weapons of offense were not in vogue in those days. ‘The Trestle | * of Horrors,” which is next to the | last episode of that highly popular | and thrilling serial of the great out. doors, “The Fighting Trail,” will also be shown, as will “When War Meant | Peace,” “The Dentist,” featuring Mr. | and Mrs. Sidney Drew and the latest issue of the snappy Pathe News interest is today row. show By Pictorial Review Particularly emphasized this sea- son are the long coats of velours, burella, cheviot, etc., with the ful- ness held in at the waistline with straight belts of self-material.
