Bushman and Beve- ly Bayne *“The Great Secret” Fe tures For Today and Tuesday. The *“House of Lies"” the screc story of a beautiful hizh born womar whose spirituality lifted her above the everyday wordly marriages and who solves this great problem in a mo-: unique way is the feature attractic at the Breed theatre today and Tues day. Bdna Goodrich, the Moroaco-Para- mount star whose beauty is orldw nowned plavs the different role of the eeeker after real love, the love that is above reszarding the aspsct of the beautiful solsly, and sees the wonder- ous beauty of the spirit—of the’ per- sonality—of the soul. In this photop'ay Miss Goodrich de- liberately jeopardized her beauty that the story might be played with its con- vincing strength and fascination. One scene of great sylvan hesutv in_this picture is the big garden party and the open air theatre performance in -a marvelous garden setting. This attraction axceeds any previ- ous Morosco production for its ele- sance of its atmosphere and unusual plot. The Breed will also present the sixth chapter of the million dollar serial, “The Great Secret” starrinz Francls X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne. THE AUDITORIUM.

Beginning with the matinee ‘today the Davis will resume its regular pol- lcy of Keith vaudeville and Triangle feature photoplays and the bill book- ed for the first half of the week is one that everyone will want to. see Heading the bill is The Gar. gen, a beautiful scenic musical of- fering presented by six pretty girls. They ¢arry their own scenery and have many novel lighting effects. Another big " time act is Florette, Sandow’s Physical Culture Girl, in her original equilibristic offering, introducing ar- tistic creations of muscular ability and hand balancing supreme.” The third act is Mr. and Mrs. Allison, who pre- sent their comedy skit entitled, Min- nie From Minnesota, 2 laugh from be- ginning to end. In the photoplays the feature is The Bride of Hate, a five part Triangle production with Frank Keenan, the sreatest dramatic acfor of\todav and Margery Wilson starred. This is a distinctive drama.of the old south, a mvstery play with the sus- pense held to the very end, boid, powerful, original and convincing. The Bride nf Hate recites the trag- edv that results from a vouthful ro- mance and the uncanny methods of the victim’s uncle to avenge the trans- eression.
