lWes with a man of the social world,
who receiving a diplomatic appoint
ment, abandons her. The unfortunate
Ctrl, left In poverty, falla under the
way of a Solvation Army girl, who
procures for her a position In an aris
tocratic family. There she enlists the
sympathy of a man who. prior to that
time, had been Indifferent to the oppo
site sex. She marries htm and bears
him a beautiful boy. v The diplomat,
who Is the husband's friend, return
and the secret of the woman's past is
revealed to the husband. The heart
broken husband drives her forth and
takes from her her boy. She dies, after
having once more clasped her boy to
ber heart. The husband repents when
it Is too late.
Another feature of an entirely dif
ferent and lighter vein Is "Uncle John
to the Rescue," which Is a comlo do
mestic entanglement of a trite and hu
morous nature. In this, however, the
differences are amicably . settled.
"Piano Making;" Is an exceed Incly Inter
esting Industrial picture, while Gener

lesque on the amateur soldier.
With clever music and a beautiful
sew comfortable house, and the most
complete, courteous attendants, the

Columbia Theater Offer Varied
BUI Beginning Today.
That the extent of a man's heroism
cannot always be measured properly by
bis actions Is shown In a Pathe photo
Dlar entitled "A Midnight Call." which
Is scheduled as an attraction on the
bill oDenlnc; today at the Columbia, it
Is a play that carries a distinct heart
appeal and an example of noble seir
sacrltlce. It has many tnse and highly
dramatic situations. The story con
eerns a young man who has a horror
for the water because ha was nearly
drowned In the ocean when a child. His
sweetheart Is overturned In a boat, his
college chum goes to the rescue and
ha la looked upon as a coward. In after
years he becomes a physician and will
ingly gave his life to save from death
the little daughter of his former sweet
heart. "Three Babes In a Flat" la billed as
one of the funniest and most highly
entertaining Essanay comedies ever
produced. Three young married couples
take apartments In an apartment-house
where no children are allowed. After
a year rolls around the stork visits each
of the three apartments, and then the
trouble begins. The proud young par
ents prove too much for the Janitor
and the childless tenants In the house,
and win a decisive victory.
A splendid little Vltagraph comedy
drama with a rural setting Is "Back
to Eden." In which It Is shown that
there Is no "EM en" complete without Its
Adam and Eve. In this "Eden," however,
there are two Adams and two Eves
and two pairs of happy lovers. The
Pathe Weekly, with its current events
in motion pictures. Is on the bill.
"Motion Picture Dancing Lessons," a
Kalem film which created such a sen
sation at the Columbia two weeks ago,
has been secured by the management
for a return engagement beginning De
cember 28. Ssjnce this film was shown
there have been repeated demands for
Its reappearance.
REAL LIFE PLAV AT GLOBE
"The nonse of Discord' Is Powerful
Blojrrnph Drama.
How many homes are rained by Internal-discard!
How many lives are
ruined by a suppression of love and
feeling' "The House of Discord." now
on at the Globe Theater, Eleventh and
Washington, is a strong drama. Illus
trating what may happen In this kind
of a home. The husband discourages
his wife's evidences of love and the
wife Is only saved from a fatal mistake
by an accident, but It caused her years
of separation from child and husband.
It had occurred primarily through her
fcelf-rihteous sister-in-law's domina
tion and Interference. A like fate and
downfall threatened the daughter, now
reaching maturity. The mother's In
sistence separated the child from her
environment. Love and understanding
did the rest.
An decant educational rathe nature
film Is "Birds of the Marshes," a com
plete showing of these birds and their
young In the native spots.
Colored views of Naples. Italy, are
beautiful. Cutey and Lillian Walker
are seen in a sparkling comedy. "The
Life-Saver." The fashion plates, re
ceived direct from Paris, are already a
feature at the Globe.
