MONDAY Christmas Matinee and Evening "THE SHINE GIRL" LLOYD GEORGE CALLS ON AMERICA TO ANSWER THE CALL OF DESTINY (By United Prase to The Dally Bulletin NKW YORK, Doc. 23. An appeal to America from the British pro mlor, David Lloyd George, "to real ize the call tluatlny la making to her" for the enforcement of Inter national law and international rights" Is contained In Isaac F. Mur cosaon's personal study of England's prime minister. "Tho hope of tho world," Bald Lloyd George In his "message to America," Is that America will re alize the call destiny Is making to her in tones that are getting louder and more Insistent as these terrlblo months go y. "That destiny lies In the onforoo- ment of respect tor International law and international rights." It you had probed bohtnd this kindling utteraneo you would have seen with Lloyd Ooorgo himself captain of Industry, It It ono of the reasons why he maintains his amailng political hold. "Lloyd George has Iloosovnlt's striking gift of phrase-making, al though he dooa not Bhare the Amer ican's lore of lettar writing. As I have already Intimated, whatever may bo his future, Lloyd George will nuver bo aoufrontnd by accusing tplatlo. None exlMts. "Like Uooaovelt, Lloyd Quurg It past master III tho art of effective publicity. Ho has a monopoly on tho Urltlsh front pngo.

Just as Individuals are kept, in the path of right and humanity. "Uut before any such bloodless antidote can. be appllod to Interna tional ' disputes, to quoto Lloyd George again, "this war must be fought to a finish." These final words, snapped like a whiplash and emphasised witn a i fist-beat on the table, meant that i England would see her Titan task ed In a republic, like Roosevelt ho would say, "my army," "my navy," and "my pollclct." Roosevelt, however, has ono dis tinct advantage over his Brit lull col leaguo In that ho Is a doopor student and has a wider learning. "In one God-glvon gift Lloyd George surpasses not only Roosevelt but every othor man 1 have ovor mot. It Is an Inspired oratory that Is at onco the wonder anil the ad miration of all who hear It. Ho Is In many respects the greatest speak er of his day tho one man of his through, and if for no other reason, race whose utteraneo Immediately because the man who drives the war becomes world property.

There are those who say that ho nets all the faith and unfailing execution?

' PROFESSIONALS TO INVADE GRIDIRONS OF EAST IN 1917 Ry United Press to The Daily Bulletin) BOSTON. Dec. 23. Professional football, bringing with it a cluster of old time Btars, is due east next fall. . .:'.;. Flans are being made here for games, and if the "pros" produce the brand of football they show in the west they probably will be soon J n other big cities of the cast. The deserted ball parks, with their bleak! bleachers, offer an Ideal setting for the re-appearance at the oncient pig-skin game of some of the former favorites. Professionali football went like a prairie fire in the middle west this year. Former all-America stars and college captains played to capacity crowds wherever they went. In the effete east are even more 'stars of yesteryear than decorate the wild and woolly. Many of them are pining for the discarded mole-skins and eleated shoes. But as yet they liave made their appearance only in ulumni contests, or, in Boston, as members of the Battery A or I Corps cadets, in their annual game. Salaries of $100 a week and more were paid in the west to stars who were called back, more perhaps by the lure of the gridiron than by the remuneration. Jim Thorpe, the Indian all-aroilnd Star, led a team 'known as the Can ton Bulldogs this fall that was a whale. On It played such brilliant performers as Soucy, of Harvard ; Ghee, of Dartmouth; Costello, Georgetown; Spears, Dartmouth; Calac, former Indian star, and many others who have attained no little .fame at the gridiron game. "Ernie" Soucy, former Harvard captain and crack end, back from "Wisconsin ; where he's been coach ing, is enthusiastic over the pros pect and incidentally had a lot to say about Jim Thorpe and his play ing, which he greatly admires. At the Movies GRAND THEATRE. Crane Wilbur's appearance in any theatre brings out big crowds. This well known movie actor will be seen tonight at the - Grand theatre In "Wasted Years" and It is one of the best in which he has appeared. Tomorrow night, Theda Bara will appear in that famous English play "East Lynne." The play on the leg itimate stage has been Been by hun dreds of thousands for decades past and its introduction upon the screen is proving even more popular with the well known Theda Bara. A special has been arranged for Christmas da? when Manager Ru dow will offer "The Shine Girl" at a matinee and evening show. On Tuesday House Peters will ap pear In "The Closed Road," a story of a young idle rich man who gives himself up to sentence for a crime which he did not .commit.- doing so at the request ol popular society girl- 1 are the Qualities that have lifted him from obscure provincial solicit or to be the prop of a people? Reducing the wizard Welshman to a formula, you And that he la fif ty per cent Roosevelt in the virility and forcefulnesa of his character; fifteen per cent Bryan In the pure ly demagogic phase of his make-up, while the rest Is canny Celt oppor tunism. It makes a dazzling and wellnlgh Irresistible composite. It is with Roosevevlt that tho best and happiest comparison can be made. Indeed, I know of no more convincing Interpretation of the j thing that is Lloyd George than to paint this live parallel. For Lloyd George Is .the British Roosevelt the Imperial Rough Rider. Instead of using the Big Stick, he employs the Big Voice.- No two leaders ev er had so much In common. Each is more of an institution than a mere man;-each dramatizes himself in everything he does; each has a genius for the benevolent as similation of idea and fact. They are notn nersisieni uui. uruimm 'crammers. HEXI) THEATRE. ' " Helen Holmes pulls some reel thrillers in the sixth chapter of "The Lass of the Lumberlands" at the Bend theatre. This chapter tests Miss Holmes' grit to the limit. To morrow night Blanche Sweet,' one of the Paramount pictures', most widely known moving picture stare, will be seen In "The Dupe."
