Emily Stevens, star of Metro's special production de luxe, "The Slacker," written and directed by' William Christie Cabanne, is mount ing steadily higher In the artistic firmament. There is not on the American stage a young woman of more brilliant achievements, or great er promise for the future. And "The Slacker" places her at the tenith of her powers. It Is fitting that Miss Stevens should be chosen to play the leading role in this superb photodrama of patriotism, for she comes of fine old American stock. Emily Stevens Is a niece of Mrs. Flske, the celebrated actress, and the daughter of Robert' E. Stevens and Emma Maddern, also ! prominent players. She made her debut on the speaking stage with Mrs. Flske, playing the part of a maid In Becky Sharp," and she remained In her aunt's' company several years, playing and studying stage technique. After winning praise in "Leah Kleschna," she was given the leading feminine role in "The Devil," with George Arliss. Later she appeared in William Locke's "Septimus." She starred in'The Unchastened Woman" in 1915 and 1916, and the early part of 1917, then appearing on Broadway in John Galsworthy's magnificent drama, "The Fugitive." This star, however, has come to the full realization of her powers in her motion picture work. She has never appeared for any other company than Metro Pictures Corporation, and for that progressive firm has starred in Albert Bowker made a trip to Ar lington last week to receive some new Ford cars which had already been dis posed of to Morrow county people. Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Sims have ta ken up their residence in the Reid house on Water street. They receiv ed a visit during the past week from Mr. Sims' brother Henry, who travels for a commission house in Butte, Montana. While here, the younger Sims bought up a large number of turkeys which will be placed on the Butte market.

Central. Give me Santa Claus, please." (Pleasant voice.) "There you are." "Is that you, Santa Claus!" "He speaking. What is itt And please talk fast for I'm a busy man." "Listen, Santa. I'm Mr. Legion, and I'm up against a proposition. I've spent days and days trying to think up a suitable Christmas gift for each member of my family and I'm no nearer a solution of the problem than I was months ago. Christmas will soon be here and I don't know what to do. Can't you help me out with a suggestion?" "Customs are constantly changing, Mr. Legion. The small individual Christmas present has practically had its day. Many families are now pooling their Chrietmas money in order to get something worth while that will directly benefit and please all members of the family alike. THE NEW EDISON "THE PHONOGRAPH WITH A SOUL" is a most ideal Christmas gift one that will bring joy not only to the whole family, but to your friends as well. Not only through the Holiday season will it entertain, but through the long winter evenings and throughout the entire year it will stand for countless happy hours delightfully spent listening to the world's greatest music from the world's most famous artists. Furthermore, now is the opportune time to buy the New Edison, as owing to the probability of freight embargoes and other unforseen contingencies the price of the New Edison, "The Phonograph with a Soul," will be materially advanced January 1st. I advise you to buy now. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas, Good-by!" "Just a minute, Santa. A thousand thanks! and where is the best place to get the New Edison, "The Phonograph with a Soul'?" "In your own home town, from my representative." Oscar R. Otto Heppner, Oregon eSSF "The Wager," "The Wheel of the Law," "Destiny, or The Soul of a Woman," "Cora," and "The House of Tears." GREAT SOCIAL LABOR PROBLEM PLAY COMING When Dorothy Phillips appears in "Fires of Rebellion" at the Star thea tre on Saturday, Dec. 22, there will be presented a social labor problem play that will Interest every class of theatre-goer and give food for thought on the question of the mater ial welfare of the working classes. Miss Phillips will Interpret the role of a mill girl who has submitted as long as she can to the conditions that have for generations surrounded her kindred. The mill Is the town's one great Industry. In the hands of the over-lords of the mill are the destl- & it I i i4 us nles of the townsfolk. Everybody Is directly dependent upon them for support, and against these conditions Madge Garvey (the role played by Miss Phillips), the pretty mill-girl, revolted. On the day set for her marriage to the foreman of the fac tory; on the day when she was des tined to begin the possible task of bearing more mill-hands to be gath ered in by the octopus of industry, the girl fled the town and sought an adventure in social betterment. She went to a great city, where opportun ity had been promised her; but when she found the "opportunity" sur rounded with temptations and beset with evil, she soon realized that hon est toll made for happiness, and back home she came content to remain In the environment she had once felt on Friday evening, December 28, at the High School auditorium as the second number of the Midland Ly ceum course.
