The big photo- play feature is the popular mount star John Barrymore in latest drama ‘The Test of Honor.” Mr. Barrymore plays the role of one who loves a married woman. The wife had used all the wiles of her beautiful,. dazzling. personality. to make this man love her and then, when this man struck down her hus- band and he died because of her neglect, she denied the man she pro- fessed to love and saw him sent to prison for seven long vears found guilty of the crime of which he was guiltless. Did he forgive? Could he forgive? You never know just what is going to happen until the last foot of the picture has passed. Mr. Barry- more's wonderful acting will thrill you will the fine acting of Con- stance Binney as the girl. The other photoplays on the bill include Charlie Chaplin in his funniest comedy, ‘A Dog's Life,” also a new episode of Eddie Polo in The “Cyclor Stories.”” | The vaudeville bill fea- tured with the “Seven Dancing Ser- enaders,” who offer a singing, danc- ing, musical review that is a riot. This act comes well recommended from the Poli circut where they have been featured. Gardner and Van of- fer a clever juggling novelty that pleases and Etta Hahn, a captivating young miss, whistles and offers a number of songs that are well ren- dered. There will be continuous shows Saturday:. UM TH The Cormican Players will he seen but three more times in that ever- lasting success “The Rosary,” at the Lyceum tonight and tomorrow after- noon and night, after which, begin- ning next Monday night the widely discussed drama “Yes Or No,” will inaugurate tiie farewell week of this deservedly popular group of thespians. “Yes Or No,” is described as a com- edy drama of women and their homes. The title comes from the fact that most of the big crises in life are settled by one of these two little words. Two women face such crises in this play, and their answers change and mould their after lives. One of these women is rich; and the other is poor. In the presentation of the double plot, a method of ancient drama is used, which, with the aid of modern devices in the theater, be- comes distinetly novel. While the stories of rich and poor are parallel, they are not balanced. The structure of the play demands that one story is that of a woman's development, while the other is that of an entire family. In addition to the regular company including the Misses Van Waldron, Rochte, Saxe, Mrs. Gleason, and Messrs. Morgan, Cormican, Gal- lagher, the following players have been brought on from New York Ithel Dagget, W. B. Read, Wilbur Braun, James Marr, Foster Wiiliam George Ellwood and the clever kid- d the Read children, Hazel and William, who appeared in the original cast FOX'S THEATER.
