Griffith's production, "Hearts of the World", will be the attraction at the Victoria theater for two weeks, commencing next Sunday. There will be a matinee every day during the engagement. The organ- ization, which comes to the Victoria, is the same that played continuously for seven months at the Olympic and Colonial theaters downtown. Bhis or- ganization embraces a big symphony orchestra and a big crew of expert stage mechanicians. "Hearts of the World" should be seen by everyone, as it is a bona-fide pictorial record of important incidents of the great war. Big battle scenes taken on the battlefields of France form the background to a delightful love story. It shows France from one month be- fore the war started up to January 1918. The principal characters are layed by Lillian and Dorothy Gish, Robert Harron, George Fawcett, Ro- bert Anderson and other noted theatrical stars, The soldiers of Great Britain, France, Belgium, Italy and our own Rainbow division are prominent features in the big spectacle. The heroic people of "France also take prominent parts. George Arns Goes To Sea George Arns, of Wilmette, Ill, of the Battalion Band of Great Lakes went to sea Tuesday morning. Assisted by two other uniformed men, Saturday night, Arns played the music for the dance at the Wilmette Woman's club. .UY--SECOND HAND | Ho.sman, 524 Davis street. | T37-tfc WANTED TO BUY = WANTED TO BUY--A CHILD'S bicycle.
