The pic- ture is "Madonna of the Streets," produced by Edwin Carewe and pre- sented by First National Pictures, which opens at the Capitol Theatre on Monday for three days. Nazimova and Milton Sills, ever to be remembered for his work in | "The Sea Hawk," have the two lead- ing roles in "Madonna of the Streets," which is an adaptation of W. B. Maxwell's novel "The Ragged Messenger." Sills plays the role of an Englishman who, In order to | gathering at the Y.M.C.A. on Friday} \ imove, Na3 a Madonna of the S At the Capitol Monday, Tuesday and Weadnerday. atone ror un evil he has dofié, founds a mission for unfoftunate women. in the heart of Limehouse, London's picturesque underworld. "Madonna of the Streets" pulses with all the glamour of life as it exists to-day in what is probably the most notorious of all undeyworlds. It is the story of a womdn who sets out to collect a debt that is due her and who finds her true soul in- stead; of one who finds salvation where revenge was sought.

Love, war, work and play are what have stimulated and inspired These four and these only are re- spongible for practically all great art sald Prof. Tait McKenzie, Canada's outstanding sculptor, in beginning | his fllustrated lecture, '"'Athletics in| Sculpture" at Convocation hall Friday evening before a large audience. Love has been the motif for thé thousands of Madonna and Child pictures. Work has been the inspiration of such house because of his bitter critictsm ; works as "The Sower," and "Tha of his rich patrons for their oppres- sion against the poor, who then gaes among the unfortunate people spreading happiness with.the aid of his suddenly inherited fortune. Interwoven into-the story are thé characters of Lord Patrington, who is chiefly. responsible for Morton's dismissal from the cathedral the part being played . to perfection by Claude Gillingwater; Lady Sarah, Patrington's daughter, played by, Vivien OakMind, who aide Morton; Dr. Colbeck, played by Courtenay Koote, an English "highbrow," who after juggling a crazy manocle #bout for some time learns at last that Morton is not as bad as had at first been thought; Matron Elyard, played by -Rosa Gore, a very snippy housekeeper, and Howard Bowman, Played by. Harold Goodwin, one of orton's salvages, who falls in Jove with Mary Carlson after she had become the wife of Morton and by doing so brings the story to a dra- matic climax. COLLEEN MOORE AT STRAND. Flapperdom has lost its great: est exponent, but only for the time being. » The reason is the attractive role of a temperamental young actress in "Miérting with Love," in which Colleen Moore is oco-featured with' Conway Tearle and which will be shown at the Strand for 'the last time to-day. Instead of the jazz girl of former pictures, she will appear in - the chargeter of a hoydenish Kiki type of Broadway farceuss. Conway Man with a Hoe," of Millet. Play and war have been used as theme: hundreds of times. The similarity of the last three incentives of the artist, was pointed out. "It is hard to distinguish between work, play and war because all are the eéxpres- sion" of a love of physical prowess," said the lecturer. . Because of .a great. knowledge of athletics and athletes and a very deep interest in them, they have been the inspiration of practically all Tait McKenzie's art. Consciously or uu- consciously, he has set himself the task of perpetuating the beauty of modern athleties as the Greek sculp- tors perpetuated the beauty of ath- letics in ancient times. An interna- tional' fame attests to his success. By lantern slides the speaker traéed the history of athletics and their relations to sculpture, from the earliest times to the present. Although most. athletic exercises have their origin in antiquity, there are several that are modern. . The pole vault and the shot put are ex- amples of important forms that have developed recently, and perhaps Prof. McKengie's greatest work has béen to make sculptural records of these two events. Certainly the photo graphs of two studies he has made of the shot-putter do not suffer by comparison with that best known of all Greek statues of athletes, t discus thrower. The Canadian wor! is undoubtedly more realistic, more sscigntifically accurate, and seems to fate a finer fire and ecstacy. In concluding his address, Prof. MdKeénzie said: "I feel that there is no greater service an artist ¢an do than to perpetuate the beauty of the athletics of his time." The second of the series of two public lectures given by the eminent Canadian will take place in Convoca- tion hall to-night.'
