Then follows a series of encounters
between Lish and the leader, In all of

has licked everybody in the neighbor,
hood, he finds the quiet he has sought.
He finds something else, too.
It is Maggie, the waitress, who had
helped him In his schemes.

Today IK Family Film Day at the Alia
and We Offer the Following for
Your Approval.
The old adage that an elephant nev.
er forgets was demonstrated a few
days ago at 'the Lasky studio during
the rehearsal of some of the circus
scenes of the production of "The
Clown," a thrilling photodrama of the
sawdust circle in which Victor Moore
is to star and which will be seen at
the Alta on today only. In order to
have everything correct, the Lasky
company rented an entire circus for
three days. Among the animals was
"Bill," a hug's and vicious elephant
with a reputation as a "killer." No
one was permitted near him and he
was used for exhibition purposes only
In the audience was one Arthur E.
Jameson, an ex-circus acrobat.
Jameson chanced to pass near where
the elephants were standing, when
Bill set up a deafening trumpeting
and strained violently at his chains.
One of the itrainers asked Jameson to
keep out of sight. The former circu
man asked the trainers where the
present owners secured Bill and wis
told that he had been purchased
from a bankrupt circus organization
ten years ago. As soon as Jameson
learned the name of that organiza
tion, he walked over to the struggling
animal and Bill, with every sign of
Joy, reached out his huge trunk and
drew Jameson to him. Jameson ex
plained to the crowd that he had
known Bill In the old days and had
chased a fox terrier out of a box car
where the dog had the big elephant
panic-stricken. Jameson put Bill
through a number of tricks and was
promptly offered a position by the
management and at the conclusion of
the day's work, Bill lifted his old
friend to his back and trudged hap
pily along with the procession.
"The Clown" Is a Paramount pro
gram release.

Is this story of the stage.
Itrhtly-Madp ProdiHtiions to Be Sccii
at the Temple Theater "The Gild
ed Ca' With Alios Brady Uio
First Offering,
Princess Honors, the heir appar
ent, succeeded to the throne. Baron
Stefano, prime minister, was in love
with her, but principally loved the
crown she wore and the accompany
ing power it conveyed.
Luckily, yet unluckily his love was
not raturned by the princess. With
his love spurned the Baron began
scheming to overthrow the little king
dom and turn it Into a republic with
himself as ruler.
But there was a Prince Boris who
had renounced his title and cast hit
lot with the people. Without know
ing their real stations In life, the
queen and the prince fall in love with
each other and the old saying that
"love will find a way," their combin
ed efforts are too much for Baron
Stefano and right triumphs.
This Is merely an Inkling of the
many intense situations which occur
during the tolling of the story of "The
Gilded Cage." in which Alice Brady
and a specially selected ciut of world
stars will appear at the Temple the
ater for tonight only.
United Staites are as vitally and is d
rectly interested as the governments
now at war. Their interest, more
over, in the means to be adopted to
relieve the smaller and weaker poples
of the world of the peril of wrong
and violence is as quick and ardent as
that of any other people or govern
ment They stand ready, and even
eager, to co-operate In the accom
plishment of these ends, when the
war Is over, with every Influence and
resource at their command. But the
war must first be concluded The
terms upon which It is to be conclud
ed they are not at liberty to smggest.
but the president does feel that it is
his right and his duty to point out
their intimate Interests in its con
clusion, lest it should presently be
too late to accomplish the greater
things which lie beyond its conclu- j
sion; lest the situation of neutral na-1
tions. now exceedingly hard to endure j
be rendered altogether Intolerable an1 j
1st, more than all, an Injury be dor,
civilization itself which can never be
atoned for or repaired.
AfkH for Definite Terms.
"The president, therefore, feels al
together Justified in suggesting an
immediate opportunity for a compar
ison of views as to the terms which
must precede those ultimate arrange
ments for the peace of ithe world
which all desire, and In which the
neutral nations, as well as those at
war, are ready to play their full re
sponsible part. If the contest must
continue to proceed towards unde
fined ends by slow attrition until the
one group of belligerents or the other
is exhausted; if million after million
of human lives must continue to be
offered up until on the one side or
the other there is no more to offer;
If resentments must be kindled that
can never cool and despairs engender,
d from which there can be no recov
ery', hopes of peace and of the will
ing concert of free peoples will bi
rendered vain and idle.
"The life of the entire world hmj
been profoundly arrea ed. Every part
of the great family of mankind has
felt the burden and terror of this un
precedented contest of arms. No na
tion in the civilized world can be 'ai.l
in truth to stand out to its Influence
er to be safe againt its disturbing ef
fects. And yet the concrete objects
for which it is being waged have nev
er been definitely sated.
is Not Pr4OHiiig Peace.
"The leaders of the several bellig
erents have, as has been said, stated
those objects In general terms. But
stated In general terms, they seem
the same on bath sides. Never yet
have the authoritative spokesmen of
either side avowed the precise ob
jects which would, If attained, satisfy
them and their people that the war
had been fought out The world ha-'
been left to conjecture what definite
results, what aotual exchange ol
runrantees. wha,' polit'cal exchange ol
guarantees, what political or terr. to-
creasing longing. He believes that the
spirit in which he speaks and the ob
jects which he seeks wll Ibe under
stood by all concerned, and he confi
dently hopes for a response which
will bring a new light into the affairs
of the world."
