"The Prussian Cur,
to the Hip for today-
will doubtless prove the same sensa- j
tion in Phoenix that has been its re- !
cord throughout America. It is A j
drama of the war. but. choses rather ;
the spy system of the Imperial German
government, as its central theme. The I
man from whom the information was !
gained that made possible the filming j
of this gigantic spectacle, was Capt. '
Horst von der 'Joltz. self confessed i
I German spy, whose service as a secret
I agent for the kaiser covered a period of
i ten years. He was the man who en- ;
j gineered the enterprise of the attempt
' at destroying the AVelland canal in ,
i Canada This was the man who faced j
! death as a spy in the Tower of Lon- I
J don, but whose life was spared on ae
i count of the efforts of the United .
Stales that he might come to this coun
i try and give the information which ,
I meant so much in the combatting of j
1 the sinister menace of the dastardly I
' spy system. '
The picture was staged at a great j
j expense, and is complete in every de
I tail. "The Prussian Cur," goes back
i through the years following from its j
; very inception the German schema of
courpiest. It shows with vivid realism
i the barbarous German outrages which i
I
pro-German serpent which crawls in
to their midst to poison and destroy;
it shows President Wilson addressing
congress; it pictures strikes, train
wrecks, and historic scenes at the im
perial German palace. It shows Amer
ica's fleets at sea the boys in camp
and on the way to the battle front.
l-iistotical archives were ransacked for
I details; secret records were examined
thigh officials were interviewed; for-
tunes were spent in collecting data
j and building the imposing sets de
! manded by this production. "The
: Prussian Cur" sums up- in swift,
I thrilling and inspiring scenes, 'the
i whole history of an epoch. It is bound
to appeal strongly to every red-blooded
which comes i American, and should prove one of the

"The Better Half," Alice Brady's
latest film success, will be the feature
offer'ng at the Columbia theater
Thursday. Friday and Saturday. It is
a story of twin sisters, adapted for
j the screen by Louise Shermin frooi
I Miriam Miohelson's novel, "Michael
! Thwaite's Wife."
Alice Brady is seen as both Louise
i and Trixie, twin sisters who are as
; different below the surface as it is
S possible for sisters to be. Michael
Thwaite, a cousin by adoption, goes
! away to become a physician, and upon
i ins graduation marries Trixie, although
in early life Trixie had hated him while
her sister Louise loved him.
After the wedding Louise enters a
hospital to become a nurse, while
Trixie continues her butterfly ways.
Finally Hendrick Thurston, a social
libertine and idler, lures Trixie to his
rooms for a late supper. Michael
learns of her caprice and attempts to
scold his wife. But Trixie packs her
bags and hurries to the hospital to
tell Louise that she is going away with
Thurston.
After talking the matter over, Louise
begs her not to go and Trixie prom
ises to return to Michael in the morn
ing. Following events find Michael
a patient in the same hospital where
Louise is working while Trixie has
gone to Europe with Thurston. An
operation is necessary in order to bring
back Michael's sight, and through the
dark days that follow Louise takes the
place of Trixie, although Michael
thinks it is Trixie who is nursing him.
At last Trixie tires of Thurston and
comes back, but when she learns that
Louise loves Michael she kills her
self. A Gaumont Graphic and a Strand
comedy will be the augmenting features
for Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Even the humble safety razor is no;
sale from the a' tacks of the author of
the Gecrec Wa'.-ii rtories. and the one
at the LsiRara wi'.ich star!., today au.i

day, brings to this screen the "boy
with tb.e big smile" in a comedy drama
built around the s-ifety iaxor industry.
This one i- called -Help. Help, Police."
Many a close have is the result of
the hair-raising' exploits of the beard
less youth as portrayed by George
Walsh in this thriller, which has been
recorded as absolutely the best picture
lie has ever made, not even excluding
his famous "Pride of Xe',v York."
According to the stoiy. the father ni'
:i is young Made is a manufacturer of
a patcnu-d whisker de:;lroyer device.
The bo 's sweetheart is the daughter
o'. a rival engaged in the same line of
pursuit. The two-edged whisker kill
ingexreutive are both after the plan;
o; a third concern, just big enough to
he in the way.
."o. :h.! . pops onto the scr in a
cut-up who iKufs as a banker from
tile west, but whose real occupation
seems to have been giving the society
resorts the once over, for the purpose
of scraping off their valuables. He
becomes acquainted with the girl, and
the young blade becomes keen for a
sharp battle with the cut-up. The old
blades have made an offer to t'ae third
concern, and the third concern has
sent a representative to the summer
resort to put the deal aoj"Oss. The cut
up. being in need of funds, thinks to
bridge the gap between the arrival cf
the representative whom he means to
rob. by quietly annexing the personal
pioperty of every guest he could man
age. The young blade watches him
enter the apartment of his fiance, fol
lows him, and the house detective fol
lows the hero. The hero chases of?
the cut-up. but is arrested for the thief
when the house man breaks into the
apartment. Explanations free the heio,
but the wits of the cut-up are when I
lor furt'aer escapades which carry hi fit
into another apartment. Again tip!
h. ro follows, and again the cut-tH)
n,akes good his get-away, but before Ic
roes he drops a match into the waste
basket and a fire starts. The hero pick
;i the sleeping girl, carries her out
o' the building, places her into an anti-mobile,
and madly rushes for help,
but when the girl comes to. failing to
realize wl at has happened, charges th"
hero with abduction, and again he is
:n the toils of the law, and incident
ally the crimes charged against him
this time crowd the calendar of th
court to the utmost capacity. Given
li s liberty on the promise to unrawl
certain unexplained things, the younjr
blade starts on a line of adventure
which bring the greatest of all thrills
to the screen. These include the mad
dash of an auto through an open spacv
to a rapidly rising jack knife bridgr.
holding It there until the bridge closes
again: the jump from a water tow-.r
t-f a speeding train: the jump from
; the t-a'n to a scmpaphore bridge, and a
! terrific battle in a deserted house with
ia sineie man pitted against five ad
versaries. '
