Georg:e Be ban, seen in Honolulu re
cently in "A Roadside Impressario."
returns In the feature picture of the
program which opened yesterday at
the Liberty theater. It is a Paramount
production, "The Cook of Canyon
Camp," and in the picture the star Is
seen as the chef of a north woods lum
ber camp, whose chief ambition is to
become owner of a "flapjack palace."
The story is a simple narrative of
life in a lumber camp, but it shows
Beban in one of his most wonderful
characterizations. The warm-hearted
sympathy of the lumber camp cook is
aroused when he learns the cause of
the sorrow of "Silent Jack," one of
the men of the camp. His efforts to
help "Silent Jack" bring about a diffi
cult situation for the impetuous cook,
but he is able to extricate himself and
all ends happily.
The serial picture. "The Mystery of
the Double Cross," which is declared
to be one of the best productions of
the kind ever offered here, is part of
the program. The weekly Pathe news
pictures are also shown.

FAMOUS NOVEL
IS DRAMATIZED
"Joan. the Woman" carrying as it
does an irresistible human appeal, is
one of the best drawing cards in tb
way of motion pictures ever brought
to Honolulu. Crowded houses at eTery
performance at the Bijou attest to Urn
popularity of this great film master
piece In which the celebrated prima
donna, Geraldtne Farrar, has the titu
lar role, ably assisted by another pop
ular movie star. Wallace Reld. Theo
dore Roberts, as the vicious bishop,
portrays a despicable part in hi
usual villainous manner.
Miss Farrar's Joan of Arc is a dif
ferent woman from the ethereal le
gendary bemg as recounted by his
tory. It Is a woman, the human Joan,
that is presented in the film into
which is interwoven a beautiful
love Btory, but the finale shows Joan
rising above material passion, center
ing all her emotions in her one pur
pose, to which she holds fast with
Iron determination the victory ot
France over the invader, a cause for
which she goes to death at the stake
Other notabie actors, including Ho
hart Bosworth, Tully Marshall, James
Neill. Raymond Hatton, Cleo Ridgley
and Charles Clary, give to the play a
stamp of histrionic perfection.
There will be a splendid matines
Christmas afternoon.
Few programs that have been pre
sented by moving picture houses in
Honolulu can equal the bill whicii
opened yesterday at the Hawaii the
ater. The feature offering is a Metro
production and is the screen version
of one of the most powerfully dramatic
stories ever penned, "The Right of
Way." by Sir Gilbert Parker, and the
leading character In the story is
played by William Faversham.
In addition to this picture a Charlit
Chaplin comedy is offered as part of
the program and, also the new Instal
ment of the thrilling serial, "The Rail
road Raiders," in which Helen Holmea
is star.
In the feature picture Faversham
appears as "Beauty Steel," the etesranl
fop of the story, whose great talents
as a lawyer shine .most brightly whea
stimulated with tvhisky. The tar
;has played few roles that equal thib
one.
In "1 A. M." Charlie Chaplin pre
sents some new things in farce com
edy. The " picture is ne big long
laugh from beginning to end. It is a
typical Chaplin picture.

WAILUKU, Maui, Dec 21 By the
production of the Birds' Christmas
carol, under the direction of Mrs.
Helen Mar Linton, one of the best en
tertainments by amateurs was given
in he- Wailuku Orpheum that Maui
people have ever enjoyed. Mrs. Lin
ton showed an infinite amount of pa
tience in being able to handle so
large a cast, especially so many chil
dren. The children's parts were par
ticularly, pleasing. The stage setting
and costuming were especially appro
priate. Mrs. Linton's own work in the
put of Mrs. Ruggles was excellent,
while the other parts, taken mostly
by 'those who had never been on the
stage but once or twice, were fully up
to the highest anticipations of all.
The prologue was rendered by Miss
Catherine Miller, and Alma Pharos
acted the part of the angel. Mrs. Enos
Vincent was the committee for pub
licity, Mrs. R. B. Dodge acted as treas
urer, Mrs. D. H. Case the committee
for the costames, Mrs. David S. Wads
worth and W. S. Chillingworth for the
groperties, Mrs. Robert Harbold on
lake-up. Richard W; Linton was the
the Orpheum, donated the theater, and
the furnishings were loaned by the
Maui Drygoods and Grocery Company.
" The play; was made possible by the
permission of the author, Kate Doug-
jass Wlggin, for its use for a benefit
performance. Above expenses the
proceeds will be devoted to the Bel
gian children. About 1154.00 was tak
en in at the door, and nearly I25.0C
was especially given for the Belgian
colors which were sold among the au
dience.

WAILUKU, Dec 21. Red Cross to-
Jr tals on Maui are 7,776 members, ac
' cording to reports published on the
wvt various bulletin boards about the is
!iand. By districts these are: Molokal,

Iiunene, 1610; Kahului, 414; Paia
1165; Haiku, 363; Kula, 539; Hana,
430.
The drive is creating more emthus
iasm than anything of the kind evet
before attempted in Maul county"!
Wailuku led up to Wednesday night,
but as was expected the Puunenfc
memberships rose at a rapid rats
when the laborers began joining. La
halna also passed Wailuku, though i
is expected that Wailuku will add m
iterially to her quota tn the next da
or two. The figures show that a tre
I mendous effort has been put forth. Is
Kahului the number represents nearlj
half the population of that harboi
town.
The campaign managers are now
out for 3,300 more names, so that in-
sieaa oi o,vuu, me quoia ior tnu
county, the total may be nearly twice
the number requested.
