! There Is a splendid note of co-opera
! lion sounded in the current month's
: number of Picture Progress, a rnaga
: zlne issued by the Paramount Picture |
j Corporation. Usually the press ma- j
tcrial from a company is all about the j
j company itself, but Paramount steps
| out of its way to show in the subject '
of '"preparedness" that tile Vitagraph
I in "The Battle Cry of Peace" has a film '
i that is worthy of attention from every j
American who has the honor of his '
j country at heart. Continuing ip the ar- !
; ticle. there is pointed out the need for j
j more armament and a concise Idea
I given of the size of our navy, as com
■ pared with that of other Powers. The
motion picture, it is added, can do >
| more to give the public at large the j
j necessary concrete evidence of what Is
I meant when certain types of ships are I
talked of.
i In a powerful role that allows her !
| talent greater opportunities than even |
I her initial photoplay characterization |
lln "The Tongues of Men," Constance
Collier, the noted English actress, will :
shortly be seen in another Morosco- !
I Paramount release. "The Code of
Marcia Gray." The Second motion plc
i ture vehicle for Miss Collier presents
an engrossing drama of modern fash
ionable life and llnance. In which this
talented artist offers some of the best
work of her notable career.
Buth Roland, the Balboa star, receiv
ed a letter from a girl in Pennsylvania.
J who said she awoke one morning with
| a red circle around her right eye. As
she had been attending the weekly in
stalments of "The Red Circle," the Bal
| boa serial plav in which Miss Roland
is appearing, she wrote to inquire if
! there was any possibility of her being
! related to the birthmarked, family of
j "Circle Jim." She said she lived In
| constant fear of the red circle's reap
pearance.
Literature, literatura. thy name is—
moving pictures! Verily the man of
i letters lives not in the twentieth cen
tury who can boast of having received
5,000 letters in a single mail Immedl
| ately after the announcement was made
that a certain book of his would ap
| pear. That is said to be the situation,
however, in which Virginia Pearson,
the Fox star, finds herseif. The an
-1 nouneeiueut that she would write a
! text-book on Movies was the cause of
j the deluge. Quite a responsibility she
i has, we would add.

i Gertrude -McCoy, a film favorite of
two continents, Is now associated with
the Gaumont people. She was born in
Rome, Ga.. and made her first appear
ance on the stage in* "The Two Or
phans." Bike so many others, she did
her first stage work under D. W. Grif
fith, and was later with the Pathe
' forces. Sire is known as an author of
photoplays.
I.OCAI, THEATERS
Coming Soon
"The New Henrietta," with its extra
ordinary cast, including the live stars,
William H. Crane. Thomas W. Ross,
Macl.vn Arbuekle, Amelia Bingham and
Kdith Taliaferro, is to be seen at the
I Orpheum Theater, March 21. This
famous play by the late Bronson How
ard, which has been rewritten and mod
; ernized by Winchell Smith and Victor
i Mapes, ran for several months at the
i j Knickerbocker Theater, New York,
i when it was first revived three years
ago. Now it has repeated Its triumphs
; in that city at the Bronx Opera House
and the Standard Theater, and at the
Adelphla Theater, Philadelphia. Har
risburg theatergoers are fortunate to
have the opportunity of seeing such a
gathering of stars as is offered by Jo
seph Brooks, the producer, in "The New
Henrietta."
"The Hnttle Cry of Pence"
To-morrow evening Harrisburg
theatergoers are given the double op
portunity of seeing the J. Stuart Black
ton masterpiece, with its expressive and
I emphatic appeal for preparedness
! against war, and at the same time by
I selecting that evening, to assist in mak-
J ing a generous contribution to the Mar
] jorie Sterrett battleship fund, which
i this paper is endeavoring to assist in
| raising. The management of the Chea
| ter has volunteered to give.lo per cent,
jof the gross receipts from the two
evening performances to-morrow to the
battleship fund, and it depends entire
: ly upon the number of people who at
j tend those shows how big the contri
bution on the part of the management
| will be. May it be large!
I Tlieda Bara is all her vampire self,
j and intensely interesting besides, in
"Destruction," the
Tlicaln llarn new William Fox
; Wliim l.nnrclM in drama, which will be
! "Destruction" presented at the
Colonial Theater for
' the last time to-day. William Collier
and a great cast arc also appearing in
1 ; a rich Triangle comedy as ail added at
] J traction. To-morow's new Triangle
i I drama features sweet Bessie Barri
-1 j scale, who will be seen in "Honor's Al
; tar." with Lewis Stone and Walter 13d
i I wards. The story In brief is this: Wal
' ter Edwards, a self-made millionaire,
I wants to get rid of his faithful wife,
i ; Bessie Barrlscale. At a club the hus
! band hears Lewis Stone boast to his
i cronies that he has lost his sense of
i honor. So he makes Stone an offer of
! $50,000 if he will win the affections of
i his wife and so free him. AVoods agrees.
> Dinners, balls, etc., follow, and finally
I Woods allows his automobile to break
l i down just before a notorious road
| | house. Her appeal to his sense of
! ; honors overpowers him. however, and
> he takes her home, later scoring Kd-
J ; wards for his unworthiness.
! For three consecutive days fair femi
! nimity will hold sway at the Majes
! tic Theater. There
! "*ll-<ilrl Carnival" will be no mkn In

the girls are "polar bears," too. If

company will appear in a series of re- '

act stands in a class of Its own and is
recognized by vaudeville managers as j
being the most beautiful of its kind.
Kate Watson, the "truly rural girl," 'is j
on this bill also; Clara Howard, a win

and through his untiring devotion and
personal efforts, were developed into a
highly educated, charming society belle,
and if, when you had attained this en
viable position, you were forced to
choose between this man to whom you
j owed everything in the world except
life Itself, and a dashing young army
officer, which would you choose? This
1 is the dilemma which Marguerite Clark
, faces as Peggy in "Mice and Men."
s To-morrow the Regent will show a
! return engagement of John Luther
j I'Ong's classic, "Madame Butterfly," fea
turing Mary Pickford. From the de
| llghtf'ul little occidental girl, who lias
| flirted, smiled and wept her way
through many adventures and ro
| mances, Mary Pickford has become a
powerfully emotional Japanese girl,
| whose portrayal of the sufferings, grief
and anguish of the deserted wife is far
above anything that she has ever at
tempted in sympathetic treatment.
j Of to-day's five-act production a cer
| tain critic has this to say:
"Vultures of Society"
"Vulture* of Is fittingly nam:d. for
| Society," With it is a startling por
l.llliun Drew trayal of all the vul
tures that prey upon
society, using the word in Its broad
sense. Under the able direction of E.
, 11. Calver* who also acts the leading
role, it has been given a most elaborate
production, with some wonderfully
beautiful settings. We cannot com
mend too highly the artistic judgment
that has been shown in the staging of
i this picture and the care that has been
taken to make it complete In every de
! tail.
I "Ijllllan Drew, in the leading role,
does some very able acting in several
characters. E. H. Calvert, In the part
! of the society thief, does some admir-
I able work, as does Marguerite Clayton,
as the society girl."

of "Battle Cry of Peace"
"The Battle Cry of Peace" film is
taking a rest over Thursday, but will
I be presented again with renewed vigor
on the Orpheum screen to-morrow and
i Saturday. The public will be given an
i opportunity to-morrow evening of
helping multiply the dimes and quar
ters and of the Marjorie Ster
rett battleship fund by attending either
|of the two evening performances. Ten
j per cent, of the gross receipts will be
turned over by Orpheum management
i to the local custodian of the fund.
| If you think this is just an ordinary
j film, read some of the opinions which
| are here expressed and then judge of
i Its nature; and after you have read,
don't forget that Friday evening is
"patriots' night" at the Orpheum.
"There are thrills by the yard, hor
