"CHOOSE MUSICAL GIFTS THIS CHRISTMAS" "If LINDSAY SELLS IT-- IT'S ALL RICHT" Most people know little about Pianos or Phonographs, and most rely upon the word of the merchant from whom they purchase." There is double sati sfaction in dealing, with a firm in which the buyer can place i mplicite confidence! . Just such a firm is LINDSAY'S. A glance at the enumeration of the lines of musical goods they sell suffices to see that none but the best is ever offered in a LINDSAY store. Get your Christmas Piano or Phonograph now while our stock is varied: whatever you s elect we will deliver at once, or later--on Christmas Eve if des ired. Divided payments accept- ed on all purchases. We are open every evening until Christmas. Fo > con .

"OPEN YOUR EYES." | Is Attracting Big Crowds at the Grand Opera House. "Open Your Eyes," the feature] { photoplay at the Grand all this week is attracting big audiences. It is a picture that is handled with commen- dable discretion, and has been ap- proved by medical authorities every- where. It is a throbbing drama of youth, love, disillusionment, suffer- ing and medical quackery. It is a pic- ture with a double purpose. The central figures are two young women, just budding into woman- hood. The one finds her mother her confidante, the other 1s allowed to investigate the mysteries of life without 'any guiding hand to help her. While one mother talks senstbly to'her daughter, explainig to-he: the sacredness of motherhood (and the beautyrof a pure mind in a pure body, the other finds her daugh- |-ter's questions too trivial for_atten- | tion in a whirl of social aftags and | super dansants. The result is Inevit- able. One girl avoids the pitfalls that trap the unwary, the other learns her lesson in the bitter, cruel school of experience. Interwoven with the two girls' lives is the career of Alex. Valentine, a typical Broadway round- er, who brings shame and Suffering to one, whom he abandons under pro: mise of marriage, and is about to wed the other, whom he really loves, when the abandoned one halts the wedding ceremony by proclaiming that the bridegreem is unfit to be- come the husband of any woman. Leading physicians, clergymen, Y. M.C.A. workers and educators every- where have lavishly praised this pic- ture in every city where if has been shown, "Open Your Eyes" is beifig pre- sented every afternoon at 2.30, with' one showing 'at night at 8 p.m. with other pictures. ; .
