The first picture made fifteen years ago has been revived and Rickarda and Nace have a bran new print of the first effort of the world's greatest screen favorite and will show it at the same time as her latest picture. It will be in marked contrast to the' modern product and will show how much they have done to improve pictures In fifteen years.

Wallace Reid at The Strand bailie Reid finishes his engage ment at the Strand this date after a most successful run in the most charming of pictures. "The Charm School." Reid has the part of his. long career in this Paramount of fering and he certainly clinched his title to the most perfect lover in pictures in the smart little story he has just finished - here. 'Xot alone was the feature the talk of those who have Been it but the comedy "His Noisy Still" came in for more than the usual comment for it is a caustic satire on those who smile behind their hands at the Volsead act and make the Illicit home brew in the family circle. Reid finishes tonight and gives way tomorrow to Mary I'ickford in "Through the Back Door" a wonder ful picture which is now playing in Los Angeles! It is another evidence of the local firm to please the picture patrons by bringing this picture to Phoenix while it is still running in Los' Angeles. It is not often that the local fans have the opportunity of seeing pictures while they are still drawing record crowds in the coast cities.

This picture is for several days and is to be followed by Robert War wick in the classic of the stage: '"in Mizzouri." Critics place Maurice Tourneur's latest screen masterpiece, "The I.ast of the Mohicans.' by J. Fennimore Cooper, in a new category of film productions. It is called a perma nent photoplay classic, which means that it will live when the ordinary entertainment film has passed on The Columbia theater offers this ex- I travagant production for the last times today.

AH the ability and knowledge of the great Tourneur has gone into this production, which comes as his first through the w Associated Producers of which he. is a mem ber.

Turn into a mold and put it on ice to chill. They have never had much money, they have never won to fame, But their lives I'd call successful in the big and vital way; And whatever was their fortune, they have met it as It came; They have known their share of sorrow, but their hearts are young and gay; They have hoped and dreamed together, they have laughed and they have wept. And their love has never faltered, and it will not. till the close; They are old and bent and wrinkled, but through all the years they've kept The pollen on the butterfly, the dew upon the rbfee. Somehow their simple annals have a savor of romance Since they' Joined their hearts in marriage more than forty year ago. For they still can find a magic in a touch or in a glance And the glamor of the honeymoon has never lost its glow; They are only common people with a common sort of life; They have worked in hum-drum fashion as their calm demeanor shows. But through all their plodding progress they have kept, as man and wife. The pollen on the butterfly, the dew upon the rose. To their brood of sturdy children they gave love and trust and care And they taught them truth and honor and to walk the path of right. To their friends and friends were many they gave out a goodly share Of a warm and sweet affection and a cheer forever bright; To each other understanding, faith of every question free And the little flame of passion which true mating always knows, So they've kept their dream unfaded, they've preserved for all to eee The pollen on the butterfly, the dew upon the rose! Regarding authorship of "Mary'a Little Lamb," a recent number of a London magazine says: "There have been many claimants to the distinc tion, but most of the evidence seems to show that the real author was Mrs. Sarah Buell Hale, who for a number of years edited the Lady's Magazine, the leading journal of its kind for almost half a century in the United States. She was the author of so many popular poems for chil dren, and her son, Horatio Hale, stated that the poem was first pub lished by his mother in 1830. "It was written some time in 1827. and owed its origin to Dr. Lowell Mason, the American composer. Dr. Mason settled in Boston, and gave particular attention to the training of children in vocal music, this being the fir&t attempt to introduce singing into public schools in America. , "In order to popularize his classes. Dr. Mason requested Mrs. Hale to furnish him with verses suitable for children. This Mrs. Hale did. com posing a number of children's rhymes among which was the now famous "Mary's Lamb." o In China the mourning color is white; in Persia brown and in Turkey it is violet.
