ARCADE God Apollo Appears to Nymph" 'The Wood A play that mingles very beautifully the atmosphere of aesthetic Greek life with the life of today is the Fine Arts Triangle "The Wood Nymph," to be seen at the Arcade Sunday. This shows Marie Doro to great advantage in her initial appearance as a Triangle star. The locale of the place is placed among the redwoods of California. Ac cording to the tale, Miss Doro as the Nymph has grown up under the care of a mother who has forsaken a civi lization to live in a finely, furnished log house in the time. The story be comes pregnant with fanciful and en trancing episode. eye as the result of a blow by the de fendant? Prosecuting Witness Yes, sir.

Tired? laughed the friend. What of, play? That's all the picture game is. The gentleman should run Sherry's or the Arcade for a week and see how much play there is in this kind of work, in cidentally foot the film bills for each week. Say he would be tired also. The reason both theatres are a suc cess is because each of the owners are not lax in their management and are strong to please all. (Babies and Chautauqua and Vernon Castles are the topic of conversation this week, oh yes war. The general belief is that all film agents are the biggest knockers. Every one knocks the other fellows films while his are the best. John Barrymore says he doesn't know a wedding ring from a key ring. . HERE'S A STAR'S POETRY. BY MARIE DORO.

AGE OF TREES GREATEST . i Giants in California Grown When the Pyramids Started. Sun Francisco, June 26. One of the wonders of the ancient world, and probably the greatest of them, was the pyramids of Egypt. And yet some of the giant sequoias of Cali fornia that are now thrifty tree had bark on them a foot thick when Cheops began building the great pyra mid that bears his name. Beneath the shadow of the pyra mid. Nupoleon said to his troops: "Forty centuries look down upon you." In the shadow of the big trees of California one might say: "Eighty centuries look down upon you." Thero are trees in the grove estimated by scientists, among them John Muir, the eminent naturalist, to be 8000 and even 10,000 years old. The oldest living things in the "Hide the villain; take him girl but I world are these giant trees. Also the don't be willin'." Quick, I hear the 1 species of vegetation to which they motor toot!
