Th! 8tandards of todaydo not ask,
"Is a man honest?" He is consid
ered honest as long as he Is suc
cessful. A woman is considered
honest until she is found out. The
story " of "Dollar for Dollar,"
Frank Keenan's latest Pathe fea
ture, is a forceful ' disclosure of
the foibles of modern lfle. It is
sensationally true. The Bligh
theater is running "Dollar for

One of the outstanding features
of Charles Ray's First National
attraction, "The Old Siwmmin'
Hole." coming to the Liberty, are
the exterior locations. It took sev
eral weeks for Mr. Hay and hi
entire staff to scout for locations
to be used in the picturization of
the James Whitcoinh Riley classic.
IJlizzards are not to be had for
the asking and yet Rex Beach
wrote two great blizzard scenes
for his latest picture, "The North
Wind's Malice," a Goldwyn pro
duction, which comes to the Lib

ADouble Dyed Deceiver" will
be remembered by some, as being
one of the most interesting stories
from the pen of -ttae famous O.
Henry. The very fact that it is an
O. Henry story, and is to be pic
turized will be sufficient to send
many to the Bligh theater when
the picture Is shown there next
Friday and Saturday.
As a stirring vehicle for Jack
Pickford, this new Goldwyn fea
ture production promises to add a
bigger popularity, if possible, to
the works of this well known and
popular author. -

supposedly having the same soul
as Pauline, and handing it on from
generation to generation. The
play proper opens at a masquerade
party in the mansion of William
Vandermuellen, a Wall Street cap
italist. Pauline is attired as a
Spanish tenor ta and when she
gases in the mirror she feels in a
vague way that she sees herself
as she appeared in a bygone age.
Tho scene then shifts to two
pirate ships where Pauline's fa
ther is seen identical with El Di
ablo, one of the crudest of pirates,
and all of the other characters ap
pear also as they were formerly.
Pauline guides her poor sweet
heart to Santa Catalina where he
finds much buried treasure and
which enables him to marry her.
Miss Davles was never more
charming than as the Spanish
beauty and the entire production
is exceptionally well handled. Her
support headed by Norman Kerry
is excellent.
"On the Art of Reading" is a
book which will inspire the occas
sional reader to try deeper works,
anxi give the habitual reader a
zest in literature.
