•THE SONG OF THE SOUL"
-The Song of the Soul," which
comes to the Grand theatre, March
12 is taken from a story by William
, Locke called "An Old World Ro
mance." It deals with a blind beau
ty and a disfigured man— the beast;
and of how their common misfor
tunes were finally blended, through
self-sacrifice and love, into an en
during and happy marriage.
Miss Martin plays the role of
beauty— -she is well qualified, ex
ternally and artistically for the part
-who. in her childhood, loses her
"sight through fire. That she does
not lose her life is due to the courage
0 a boy playmate, who is disfigured
as a result of his heroism.
Years later the two meet again.
Jerry Wendover, the boy grown into
a man, has retired to the "backwa
ter" section of the South, a recluse
from life as a result of his sensitive
ness over his facial Impairment.
Shunned by men and women, he in
turn shuns both. When he acci
dentally meets Barbara, he is aston
ished that she does no recoil from
his scarred countenance. He dis
covers that she cannot see, and a
friendship grows up between them,
and later they are married.
"SO LONG LETTY'"
"So Long Letty," the Robertson-
Colo super special picture which will
be shown at the Grand theatre,
.March 13 and 11. will give some
pointers in an amusing way to dil
satisfied husbands.
Tommy was a strong healthy man
who needed nourishment; but Letty
was more concerned with the "dan
sants" and the latest in gowns, than
she was with domestic duties. As a
result Tommy tried to exist on Bar
dines, crackers and tea dust.
To make Tommy more miserable,
there lived right next door dear little
Gracie, whose long suit was cooking,
and Tommy nearly perished even
time the aroma of fried chicken and |
pravy floated from Grade's window.
But Oracle's better half cored move i
tor style and class—at least he
thought a. did —;_♦/.-. i" ' •'■'■ deli
cious meals Gracie ',_—t'.'» prepared
for him.
Each man sighed for the other
man's wife. Then a brilliant (?)
idea came. How, about changing
wives? See the picture and find out
how it worked out.
"FICKLE WOMEN"
On March 15 and 16 the Grand
theatre will present as its banner at
traction David 'Butler In "Fickle
Women." This story was adapted
from the Saturday Evening Post
story, "Sitting on the World." It is
a typical story of American rural
We and deals with the humorous
tore exploits of an American boy who
after making the world safe tor
democracy by fighting In the mud of
Flanders returns home to find that
a slacker has taken his girl from
him.
It is said that there are many
wholesome laughs, most of them at
the expense of the young hero, who
in the end does a little laughing at
the expense of the other fellows.
It shows that it is Impossible to
keep a good man down when that
man can smile when another fellow
- robs him of his girl. But this hero
works a little different from the
.average movie hero. After a few
ighs of outraged love, he corners
the chicken hearted wretch who has
caused all his trouble and after a
sound thrashing makes hi.m take
• hack his false slander. Then when
tft girl wants to come back, he re
uses to have anything to do with
»er and marries another girl who
has secretly loved him for years.

"GO AND GET IT"
There is a Strong appeal in Mar
shall Neilan's mlle-a-minute melo
drama of newspaper life. "Go and
Get It" for overseas men who have
or are contemplating returning to
civil life in the adventures of the
hero, Kirk Connelly. During the
war Connelly's task, much against
his will, was that, of cook. But he
found time between meals to do some
real hero stuff and get wounded. On
his return to private life Connelly
gets a job on the editorial staff of a
big daily newspaper In the hope of
becoming a reporter. Hut to his
great disgust the managing editor
sets him to writing cooking recipes
But fortunately for the young vet
eran this condition does not last
long, He is eventually assigned to
a big story and it leads to one of the
most amazing assignments a reporter
has ever had fall to his lot. And
the ex-cook book editor acquits him
self in a most creditable manner and
"gets he story" and a "scoop." But
you will have to see this picture at
the Liberty March 12-13 in order to
appreciate bow truly big it is. It Is
a First National attraction and is
considered by them as one of their
best releases.
"THE STRONGEST"
Particular interest attaches to
| "The Strongest," the classic of the
... en from the pen of Georges
Clemenceau, the "Tiger of 'Fran
which William Fox presents at the
Liberty theatre, March 14, because
the keynote in the love affair be
tween the American, Maurice, and
the Ffench maiden. Claudia, is that
of closer understanding between the
United states and France. It is j
not, however, a war play in any
j sense.
The young people first meet in a
! hospitable French village through
which Maurice, in the American uni
form, passes. The young and ener
getic Yankee remains In France to
contribute his peculiarly American
. ' punch" to French industry. When
a series of highly absorbing events
leaves the girl stranded, Maurice
takes her as his bride to the United
States, the land of opportunity— the
land of "The Strongest."
The picture was directed by R. A.
"Walsh, a wizard in the etching of
character and the accentuation of
atmosphere. The story thai Clemen
ceau wrote first as a novel, then as
a photoplay, he visualizes so that it
wins a permanent niche in the Bpecs
I .tor's memory.
"KATHLEEN MAVOURNEEN"
I Every true Irishman's heart must
rejoice that "Kathleen Mavourneen
1 will be shown at the Liberty theatre
March 15 and 16. This picture is a
big William Fox special directed by
Charles J. Brabin, who also wrote
it under the inspiration of the fa
mous poem by Mrs. Julia Crawford,
the Irish poetess. It features Theda
Bara in the title role.
"Kathleen Mavourneen" is a real
Irish picture, with a wealth of de
tail and atmosphere, and is thor
oughly enjoyable from the beauty
of the opening scenes down to the
big surprise at the close. Among
the most colorful of the many in
teresting episodes are the Donny
brook Fair, the wedding of Kath
leen and the squire, the ball, the
attempt on Kathleen's life and her
rescue by Terence, the trial scene,
the near-execution and the happy
termination.
Theda Bars scored an emphatic
success as Kathleen, a type of role
new to her. but one which she in
vests with beauty and charm. Ray
mond McKee, an Irish lad and an
i excellent actor, Is well chosen for
the part of Terence, Kathleen's
sweetheart. Marc McDermott Is seen
as the squire, and Edward O'Connor
gives a capital interpretation of an
Irish father.
"THK NOTORIOUS MISS LISLE"
Paris, the mecca of art students,
the Babylon of the pleasure seekers
and its evenings of wine, and morn
ings of headaches forms an entranc
ing background for one of the most
dramatic situations in the latest
First National attraction. "The No-
torious Miss Lisle," starring Kather
ine MacDotiald. This picture will be
shown at the Liberty theatre, March
17-1 I,
As Gaenor Lisle, a beautiful girl
with a haunting past, who is passing
through the French capital with her
husband on their honeymoon, Kath
erine MaeDonald employs a type of
dramatic talent that so ably portrays
the fact that she is a vivacious bride,
married but a short while, and yet
depressed by the overwhelming bur
den of a past that may at any mo
ment be exhumed before her hus
band, who knows nothing of the
scandalous affair.
Her fears were not without founda
tion. Out of the human tide that
eddied into Paris from all quarters
ol the globe, her husband meets an
old colleague who tells him of his
Wife's implication in an affair that,
kept London agasp,
"TIIF WONDER MAN"
Georges Carpentler, who will be
seen at the Grand theatre, March 17
and 18 as the gentlemanly hero of
"The Wonder .Man." a Robertson-
Cole production, 's an all-around ath
lete as well ah heavyweight boxing
champion of _urop?.
George 3 is bo shy of interviewers
that th- information could never be
extracted from him bt.. his manager,
Francois L'escamps, •- not adverse lo
j such facts finding ihdlr way in; i
j newspaper offices Nay, the volatjls
little manager goes further than
I that —he boasts of the athletic
! prowess of his prodigy, produces
| French sporting records showing
| that Carpertier as a sprinter is only
one-quarter behind the world's rec
ord for the 1 00-yard dash, and as a
j pole vaulter he is only one-quarter
; of an Inch under the best French
! figures.
But Georges does not stop there.
He can do ten miles cross country In
record time, he shoots well, he rides
! better, he Is an expert at tennis and
plays the net game while training
He is an expert at billiards, swims,
handles the oars like a professional
and can manage a gasoline engine

tomobile or airplane,
Don't ask, "What shall l do with
my fruit," but rather, "What have 1
