It was decided to enter a team in the O.A.L.A. alsoOto have red and white as the team col- ors. Following are the officers elect- ed-- Hon. president, Dr. Eh F. Irwin; president, H. Cousins; vice-president, George Stokes; manager,A. Trinkwon; secretary, G. A. Stokes: treasurer, L. Mallaby. Everything will be in shape tor an early practice and a good sea- son is looked fox-ward to by all. It is not often that one may travel so cheaply as in the great illustrated travelogue to be seen at the IVes1- minster Church next Monday night. Mr. Parkinson, who has delighte'd Weston audiences in previous years by his illustrated lectures, is to pre- sent Timagami, Ontario's wonderland, on that evening. The travelogue is illustrated by colored lantern slides and moving picture films, and re- veals in a most compelling way the marvels of this great northern lake- land. " Among the changes in connection with real estate activities in town is the tearing down of the Verral home and outbuildings, the work of which commenced last week. When this is completed. the new sub-divisiqn will be ready for building purposes. The old Shoddy Show will also go under the wreclrers' hammers in the near fu- ture and in place of the present un- sightly and unsanitary cottages, a row of modern homes will be erected. The latter property is in the hands of the Consolidated Realty Co. and their re- cord of sales since opening up a local branch speaks well for this long look- ed for improvement on the main thor- oughfare of our town. "The Easter season is drawing nigh and with it returns the Lily to its home in the greenhouse of A. M. Bar- ton, George St. A visit at any time during the next week will mean plea- sure to all lovers of the beautiful. Standing at the entrance your gaze wanders down avenues of green foli- age with its crown of snowy blossoms, perfect in shape and of waxen purity, symbolic of the life of the risen Sav- iour; also a harbinger of spring, when the trees and flowers will awaken from the cold of winter and burst forth with bud and foliage, bringing joy and gladness to every heart and the birds will pour forth their silvery notes of song. The regular monthly meeting of the Weston Horticultural Society was held on Tuesday last week with it good at- tendance. President Mrs. G. NI. Lyon occupied the chair and several mai- tei's of business were put through, Blue. prints prepared by Mr. Moore, of Niagara Falls, on utilizing to the best advanta,ge the memorial trees purchased last Fall in beautifying Weston were on the table and received considerable attention. The member- ship committee did not have the de- tails of this season's campaign com- pleted and this matter was left Over. His Lordship Bishop Sweeney, of Toronto, held Confirmation service in the Church okthe Good Shepherd on Sunday evening last. There were ly, candidates and Mr. Alexander was al- so inducted as Lay Reader. Mr. Rudolph, of the Weston Coal & Lumber Co., is able to be around again and down to business after be- ing confined to the house for the past three months. i During Easter week Union services will be held in the Methodist Church Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 8 p.m. and on Good Friday at 11 a,m. Addresses will be given by the differ- ent Pastors and the friends are asked to keep the meetings in mind. Mr. George Scott, who for the. past few months has been on the North- West Mounted Police Force at Regina, Sask, has been transferred to Ottawa. Master Wallace Cruickshank, of Barrie, is visiting with his grandpar- ents, Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Cruick- shank. Main St, On Thursday last the A.B.K. Girls' Club held their first dance in the Odd- fellows' Hall, Church Street. The hall was prettily decorated and drap- ed with the Club's colors. The pro- gram with hand painted shells by one of the members of A,B.K. Johnson's Orchestra, provided excellent music for more than seventy pairs of gliding feet. A dainty luncheon was served by the members and dancing was resumed till 12.30 a.m. The dance was considered the biggest success of the season and many expressed their hope that the girls would have an- other in the near future. Mr. J. P. Allen and Mr. K. McKit- terick, of the local G.VV.V.A., attend- ed the annual Convention of the On- tario Provincial Command held at Peterborough last week. Mc. Barrett, of The Canada Lum- ber Co., who has been confined to his bed with a very severe attack of dou- ble pneumonia, returned to the office this week. Mr. C. C. McIntosh. King St, sold his house on King Street last week to Mr. Wm. Rowntree, of Thistletown, who intends moving to town the early part of April. Hid a? MOUNT DENNIS PRES., H. B. HALFORD DIRECTORS; N. J.

"' _ Maple Leaf Theatre e?i(%iae)ie)R)iey/y/ye)K)katie)ieeieit "Through all the successive stops from the selection of the play itself, the consideration of its motion pic- ture possibilities, which were weighed on the severest scales, and the deci- sion to produce the play on the screen," said Mr. Karger, "Nazintova has shown herself not only conversant with the most minute details of pl'0- duction and picture values, but also a keeness of vision seldom exhibited even by producers." While in New York last season in search of suitable material for her screen appearances, Nazimova came upon "The Brat," Maude Fulton's great stage success, which Oliver Mor- osco produced for long runs m New York and on the road. "Being of a very impulsive nature she decided then and there to adapt it, and the manner in which she has acquitted herself from a technical viewpoint is a permanent proof of a skill in this direction that fully equals In the opinion of Maxwell Karger, Director General of Screen Classics, Inc., special productions, who, with Richard A. Rowland, President of Metro, presents Nazimova in her su- per-dramas of the screen, the photo production of, tho recent stage suc- cess, "The Brat," with this supreme actress as its star. not only serves to establish more firmly her wonderful emotional talents, but also acclaims Nazimova as a dramatist of the high- est order. - "With a copy of the manuscript," said Mr. Karger. "Nazimo‘va left New York for her country hbme. With her leading man, Charles Bryant, she read and re-read 'The Brat' and each time with added enthusiasm. Serial The youthful spirit of these two young; people, the magnate's young wife and his adopted son, develops a mutual attraction to the jealous dis- comfiture of the elderly one and the situations that follow are intensely dramatic and startling. But, so cleverly have the authors drawn their characters that the working out of the problem becomes of keen and intense interest to the viewer. NAZIMOVA A DRAMATIST SAYS MAXWELL KARGER The picture has as its underlying thought the fact that Youth responds to Youth, though tied to Age. This is brought out through the situation of a. young and pretty woman, full of the bloom of youth, being married to an elderly man, an industrial Her- cules, who has never had thought or time for "play," living under the same roof with his adopted son.

The ancient system in vogue in Latin countries to betroth young girls to favored suitors without consulting the being most concerned in the tran- saction, forms the basic idea, of the story of "A Daughter' of the Old South," the latest Paramount photo- play starring beautiful Pauline Fred- erick. which will be presented at the Maple Leaf on Mar. 26 and 27. "A DAUGHTER OF THE OLD SOUTH" MAKES RERIARKABLE APPEA l. helm-es. a charming Creole girl lic- living in Louisiana, is burtered away in the marriage market by hergrand- mother. but she resents this course and places her heart in the keeping of an American novelist, When he proves faithless to her, she becomes veveru.reful and troubles follow rapid- ly. While these affect her life to some extent, Dolores ultimately finds happiness in the love of the man to whom she had been betrothed against her will. The story is exquisitely told by Alicia Ramsey and Rudolph De Cordova, the authors, and it has been finely picturized by Margaret Turn- bull. The photoplay was ably direct- ed by Emile Chautard, an eminent French director now identified with the Paramount producing forces. In support of Miss Frederick appear such well known screen players as Pedro De Cordoba, Rex McDougall. Vera Beresford, Mrs. T. Randolph, and others. BASIL KING’S FAMOUS STORY ALLEN'S BEAVER THEATRE Monday and Tuesday, Mar. 29, 30 "The "Street Called Straight," a picturization of the novel by Basil King, has been made at the Goldwyn Studios and will be presented at the Allen Beaver Theatre, beginning Mon- day and Tuesday, Mar. 29, 30. It is the second picture which the Eminent Authors organization has made. Technically, the picture is as close to perfection as modern motion pic- ture art can make it, The sets repre- sent perfectly the high station in life occupied by the characters; and the interior art decorations suggest the culture and refinement to be found in many old American families. Beauti- ful photography reveals many unique lighting effects. ' This little girl, just past three, came to visit her famous auntie one after- noon, and was quite surprised to find her garbed as a little giri and indulg- ing in all sorts of queer' and awkward antics, calculated to represent a. child's efforts at dancing. Thinking it some kind of a game, little Miss Rupp in- sisted on joining the party, whereupon both Director Powell and Miss Pick- ford were treated to a great surprise- for in her quaint romping they found exactly the steps they were seeking for the "glad dance." Comedies may come, and comedies may go, but "The Garage," will go on for quite a long time. "The Garage" is the latest Paramount-Arbuckle comedy to be shown at the Oakwood March 29th, 30th and 31st. We can safely say that it deserves a, place in the select circle. The story is of Fatty, the helper in a. garage, which, by the way is also the town jail and firehouse. Fatty loves Molly, the pretty daughter of the owner, but is forced to go through many trials before he finally wins the girl for his own. The story differs from that of the average film production in that its theme involves mental rather than physical complications. “The Street Called Straight" has a deep thought underlying it, and appeals to the in- telligence of the spectator as well as to his emotions. The clearness with which the points of the theme are hammered home, and the subtle, convincing manner in which the significance of the situa- tions is brought out, are due to Wal- lace Worsley, who directed the pro. duction. The various characters are inter- preted by an all-star cast, including Milton Sills, Naomi Childers, Charles Clary, Alec Francis,' Irene Rich, Law- son Butt, Lydia. Yeamans Titus and Jane Sterling. TOT OF THREE DOES MOVIE "GLAD DANCE" :After Miss Pickford and her direc- tor, Paul Powell, had figured for sev- eral days on. different steps, and after Little Mary had even hired half a dozen children to dance for her that she might watch their steps andvstudy their actions in an earnest search for "kid business," she finallygot just the steps she wanted from her little niece and namesake, Mary Pickford Rupp. Many who view 'Mary Pickford's first United Artists Corporation pie- ture, "Po11yanna," when it is shown at the Mavety Theatre on April 1, 2, and 3, will wonder where she learned the quaint little dance which features her "glad" visit to Mrs. Snow, the in- valid.
