aNew Thrills In "The Warrior"
"Th first conclusion one reaches af
ler seeing "The Warrior" at the Peo-
' pies theatre is that Douglas Fairbanks
has a rival. And a likely one at that.
Um la Ernesto Pacanl, better known
s Maciste. the giant slave of "Cabiria."
Thfturh at least three times the size
- of Fairbanks, he goes up the side of
a house with the same speed and ease
and seems to extract the same amount
Jht erttovtnent in his playing. To see
-a. man toss his enemies about as if
thev were infants and hurl half
dozen of them through an open window
in
' without the slightest effort is to get
a new thrill.
' -There are other thrills in "The War
rior," however. It is a vivid story
for the cause of Justice and is replete
with scenes of Alpine warfare that
are startling in their sheer audacity.
There is a thread of romantic interest
that runs through the series of exclt-
" jng incidents. But, towering above all.
Is the picturesque and huge figure of
the' Italian giant. Maciste. It is enough
to have seen him. --
Mary Plckford at Star ,-.
In "Rebecca of Sunnybrook VFarm"
at the SUr theatre, we have Mary
- Plckford as a creature of - fire and
- dew, and yet forever transparently in-nocent-and
Ingenuous. So completely
does the star characterization of Re-
becca dominate the picture ' that one
resents the intrusion of even the slight
est bit of plot: one would rather see
Hebecca leap "from rug to rug, like
Kllza crossing the ice, so as to keep
from slipping on the polished floors.
And her soap selling campaign to ac
cumulate enough premiums to get a
banquet lamp for a poor family Is im
mensely fvmny as is her ieud with
' Minnie Smell le, the parsom daugh
. er. There are comedies which make
people laugh because they show situa
. tlons which never could occur, but
Rebecca arouses memory laughter over
things which have happened and been
forgotten.
Mary Plckford Is admirably sup
r ported by Eugene O'Brien as Adam
Xadd. millionaire, and Josephine Crow
elU as the crabbed maideif aunt. Others
v in -the cast are Helen Jerome Eddy,
, Marjorie Daw, Violet Wllkie and Mayme
Kelso," .
Polly of the Circus at Sunset
"Polly .'of the Circus," scenariolzed
from her own play of the same nam
by Margaret Mayo. Is at the Sunset
: ' theatre. That wistful little lady of the
v films, - Mae Marsh, is Polly, and
xnost . loveable Polly, too. However, it
to . the story and fidelity of circus
-scenes "that is emphasised In the pro
duction, rather than the star. As the
camera follows Polly through her vi
- clssltudes to the final triumph of love
ind faith... the combing, spell of Miss
Marsh's wonderful adfcAg and the re
markable photography and lighting and
the sympathetically Interwoven sub

while the little girl from the "big- tops'',

her. The circus scenes, the parade,

A TRULY jRronderful photo-spectacle
Is "Joan The Woman." the Christ

Joan's story follows with considerable
accuracy the historic record of Jeanne

with the present by a suggestion of the
reincarnation theory, whereby a young

A Change of Vision
Oopyricht. 11T. by LUtt&a BibhD
IT WAS a Monday morning in a fash
ionable dressmaking- establishment.
The salesladies were looking over their
stock" of importations. The little girls
were arranging the novelties in the show
Fans, handbags and dainty lace
collars were arranged in picturesque
groups surrounded by a glorious roee
or an orchid. All was harmonious until,
the . manager came 'forward with her
appointment book: . "Miss Brown, your
customer, Mrs. Black, will be here at
10 o'clock for her fitting. Tou had better
have the lightest room ready. Tou, know
what you will get from her if you are
not ready, and see that Miss Murphy has
her dress ready.
"Who comes after her? Let me see
oh' that little nervous bride, Miss Ben.
whose trousseau we are making. She is
a vixen well, you surely have a pleas
ant morning to look forward to. I don't
envy you, dear, cheer up. ' Things will
be worse before they are better."
As Miss Brown rushed up to hurry
Miss Murphy, the fitter, the girls called
after her: "I am glad I haven't your
Job some fine morning for you. Brace
ourself and hay a prayer, dear you
will need a half holiday when 1 o'clock
comes."
Such was the reputation of the two
customers that every one stood in fear
of the irritation which they, never took
the trouble to conceal, but rather vented
upon anyone who happened to be do
ing anything for them, from the house
maid and chauffeur to the manicure and
dressmaker.. Many women are of the
opinion that to fight through the world
is far more satisfactory -than to go
through harmoniously. Their idea la to
start battle at once and start It strong
that there Is ne use for anyone to give
an argument. They speak of the ald
ers and abettors of their personal at
tractions as menials of the lowest order.
And to them worse 'than that. "Here
she comes, girls." The page opened the

Hard to Fit Pants to Peter Rabbit
YOU couldn't guess who the Store-
keeper was ! Perhaps you didn't know
that they had second-hand clothing
stores in the great forest! But you
must remember that all the wood folk
wear clothes; and many of them like
Mr. Red Fox. Jimmy Coon, Mr. Beaver,
Mr. Mink. Mr. Otter, Sammy M oak rat
and their wives and children wear the
most elegant fur coats In the world. And
of course these woodfolk wear out
their clothing : and they have to set new
rulta. And they must be In style
Just as we must be. And so it pays
to have a second-hand or ready-to-wear
clothing store in the great forest.
And Jimmy Coon took Peter Rabbit
to the moot stylish tailor to be found.
The storekeeper's name was Mr. Jim
Crow. That's a funny nam for a store
keeper : but he bad a very nice assort
ment of second-hand clothes and other
thlnga. Tou remember that Jim Crow's
a great collector. Why. Jim Crow went
around like a rag picker, and picked up
all the bright and curious things he
coifld find for his store.
Now it waa indeed funny to hear
Jim Crow speak up In his hoarse and
funny voice. "Peter Rabbit.' I have a
very nice little cane I could sell you ;
and here's one kid glove, which I picked
up last week In town ; and IU sell both
at a great bargain. And you really need
this cane and this pretty glove!"
And Utile Peter Rabbltt replied. "Mr.
Jim Crow, how do you suppose I'd took
walking along the little winding path.
with a cane and one glove, and wearing
no pants I Tou must find m a pair of
pants r
And Mr. Jim Crow pulled over all his
clothes ; and finally he said. "Peter Rab
bit. I've found at last. Just what you
want ! . Here, look at this. You say you
like green. Here Is a beautiful garment.
It's as fin as silk. I have Just on left
in stock, and it'S an the rase r
And little Peter's eyCa sparkled with
delight, as Mr. Jim Crow held up this
handsome shining garment 1 80 little
Peter tried on the fin green garment.
It was a vary tight fit indeed. And
Jimmy Cpon had to help little Peter
puu it on. F7 .
And Jim Crow was bubbling over with
excitement and remarked. "Why, Peter
Rabbit, tt fits you like thaApaper on the
wall I I never saw & better fit la ail my
years tn this basis ess I".
But Peter was so tight in this gar
ment that he could hardly breathe and
he said to Mr. Jim Crow,- "I Just dot
on green pants! Bat this is too tight;
I eouldnt run In such tight pasts !
"Oh. Peter Rabbit, don't be so fussy."
