Sid Chaplin has this to say about
himself in Reel Life:
“I was born on the day of my birth,
brought up on the bottle, I have re-
mained true to it ever since, except
that I have changed the brand. My
first experience before the footlights
was in my mother’s arms, the only time
I was ever impervious to a first night
stage nervousness. My father at the
time was singing a descriptive miner’s
song, in which he tells the audience
that he is leaving the gold field of
Australia and returning to England to
marry the dearest and sweetest little
girl in all the world. My mother being
the sweetest little girl, would sing the
chorus of the song from the side of
the stage. The song went so well this
particular night the audience insisted
on seeing the dear little girl that he
was about to marry and who sang so
sweetly from the side. Her entrance
with me in her arms has struck me
since as being a little out of the pic-
ture, considering the theme of the song.

in an army post, with resultant com-
plications that result in the affair com-
ing to the husband’s knowledge. He
and the young officer go away to war
that night. When the young man re-
turns it is to claim his early love.
Naomi Childres. makes the young
woman of the childish jealousy as near-
ly natural as is possible, and enlists
the sympathy of the spectators. ■ The
cast is in all respects excellent, and the
direction of the same quality.
The attraction today and Saturday
is “The Wishing Ring.” Vivian Martin,
one of the most fascinating ingenues
of the stage, is starring in this play,
which was the vehicle Marguerite Clark
used in making her entrance into the
legitimate theater. “The Wishing
King,’ is one of the three plays that
Owen Davis has written of which
World Film corporation has secured
the motion picture rights. The other
two being “Lola,” in which Clara Kim-
ball Young is starring, and “A Marked
Woman” in which Barbara Tennant
plays the title role, to be shown at the
Queen at a later date.

from Galveston for the recent Vera

Col. Jasper Ewing Brady, is a story of
a girl who finds among her fiance’s pa-

leaps to a jealous belief that he has

The “Keystone house” continues to
be the headquarters for laughter. Mr.
DeLong asserts that the Mack Sen-
nett’s people have inexhaustible re-
sources for fun making and challenges
a critic to find a comedy that would
not make a graven image snicker. The
bill for the week:

prise of his intended victim and her fi-
ance, Harry. Disgusted with the lack
of success which has attended the ef-
forts of his accomplice, the gypsy, Bal-

sode enlists the aid of a villainous cut-

name of “doctor” Louis Wrentz.

ries. Saturday and Sunday Theodore
Roberts, said to be America’s foremost
character actor will be seen in “a
kaleidoscope of life benath the great
white canopy,” “The Circus Man.” This
is a Lasky production and an adap-
tion of George Barr McCutcheon’s “The
Rose in th© Ring.” A. Bosworth piece
in four parts, “The Country Mouse” is
billed for Wednesday and Thursday.
The management says this should not
be confused with another film piece of
a like name.
Hanford C. Judson, the critic, says
“ The Circus Man” should be a pop-
ular picture, as its few drawbacks “are
swamped by its excellences. It opens
with a parricide, for which the hero is
wrongly accused and has to flee for
his life. He joins a circus and falls in
love with the circus man’s daughter, i
There is an interesting pickpocket i
character in it who is the means of
clearing him and reinstating him in
his inheritance. There are many char-
acters and two or three minor stories
are twisted into the main thread; but
all are interesting and to one who can
keep a clear-cut memory of faces all
man meets his first and almost only
defeat. He holds ou this arms to the
child, but with the divine instinct of
childhood, she senses a vague repul-
sion and so she goes to the arms of an-
other man. In that moment Jefferson
Worth is born again and all of the will
and force and brain that has made him
a master of men he brings to the task
of winning the love of this little child.
He finally realizes that to win her su-
preme trust and love he must cease to
be a leader of men and become a lead-
er for men, knowing that it probably
means disaster singly; with nothing to
aid him but his own indomitable spir-
i it and the enthusiasm of his adopted
( daughter, he engages in a desperate
fight with a grea financial syndicate,
in an effort to save the desert from
spoliation, saves it for those humble
men and women who are incapable of
protecting themselves.’ ■ ■ • •
The company includes Theodore Har-
dy, Joe Detrick, Jack Mosher, Earl t
Burnside, Eddie Black, Beulah Watson,
Gertrude Barker, ‘ Burton Robbins,
