The coming of "The Kternal Magda
i leu.?" to the Orpheum on next Tuesday
evening, has aroused more Interest than
limy similar announcement in some
I time. The widespread discussion
I aroused by the play during: its run in
New York has created an interest in the
piece much greater than is usually
shown in New York successes outside
tl'st citv. In "The Kternal Magdalene"
Bobert Mclaughlin, the author, has not
sought to offer a new solution to the
1 old problem o the social evil, but has
! attempted to bring forth with startling
clearness the importance of a truth ut-
I tered 2.000 years a SO.

the comedy. "Daring

time to-night. The
dramatic feature stars William S. Ilari,

while the comedy, which calls in daring
aeropianinfr. stars t'hester Con kiln.
There is variety and contrast in the
Fine Arts Triangle play. "Bet Knty Do
It." coming to tiie Colonial for the first
half of next week. The first part of
the heroine's life is spent on a farm up
in Maine, where she puts in her time as
the family drudge. Her parents die,
her sister marries and then
she goes to live with her sister. Katv
then slaves for her sister .and as each
baby arrives, its care is handed over to
the patient, youfng Cinderella. Then
her brother-in-law and sister are killed
by a train and Katy finds herself the
foster mother of seven charming chil
dren of all sizes and of very lively dis
nosltions. Katy then responds - her
uncle's offer and takes her brood to
Mexico, where we will leave them for
the present.

Anna Held Experiments
With English Language
Anna Held, the dainty, international
j idol with the quaint Champs Elysees
accent, showed an ingenious delight
j when she heard for the first time the
j Anglo-Saxon word "henceforth."
During the production of her Oliver
j Morosco moving picture, "Madame
la Presidente," which, incidentally, she
was tendered something like $25,000
for a brief fortnight's appearance, she
heard the word for the first time in
her life when her director, Frank
Lloyd, gave one of the actors a line for
a scene: "And henceforth you will
always live in Paris."
j Anna Held, to whom film life was a
novelty and who was accordingly that
much more observant of everything
that went on. straightened alertly,
quite regardless that Ting Ting, her
tiny ? 5,000 Pekinese spaniel, was
I gnawing intimately at the hem of her
frock.
"Wat you say, Msieu Law-weed,
'eneeforth'?"
" •Henceforth'," Lloyd corrected. "It
j means 'from now on', 'always after
| this'."
j Miss Held pondered the unheard-of
•word eagerly, repeating it with ap-
I parent relish. " Eneeforth. Ence
j forth. From now on. Always after
zis. 'Eneeforth. 1 never hear zat
I word in my whole life! Wat a prett-ee
word! Oh, 1 louv zat word,"
By this time Ting's teeth had set for
the "kill."
A rip!
And the frock was ready to be given
to the poor.
Reproving her Pekinese pet only
[ c asually—for what is one frock when
I one has brought thirty-seven trunks of
j them just from Paris'.'—Anna Held
; admonished with her forefinger: "Ting
i Ting, you mus' never more tear yo'
I mamma's dress again." She stopped
i and turned to Frank Lloyd helplessly,
j as though she had lost a word—a great
; word.
"Henceforth," he prompted with a
! grin.
j "Yes, Ting Ting, you must tear yo'
mamma's dress never more again—
'eneeforth!" Her face brightened
proudly.
" 'Eneeforth, you 'ear me?"
And the great word was her's.

in the operation of cars will be put into effect:

ing into North Market Square for the re- gers will be received and discharged on
sumption of the north-bound trip. west s jd e of the Square.
tfl These changes, which will tend to equalise traffic on various tracks in Mar
ket Square, it is believed, will greatly facilitate the maintenance of schedules
on ALL lines, and thus benefit ALL patrons.
CJ It must be understood, however, that they will not completely overcome
all difficulties. Various causes beyond the control of the companies fre
quently contribute .to delays along the various routes of their cars.
<1 But they WILL eliminate the delays now occasioned to various lines by
the overburdening of certain tracks in Market Square—and as it is the de
sire of the companies to improve service to their patrons wherever possible,
the above changes in operation have been decided upon.
