eT et -- IES a -- EE ---- ee -- ' WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 16, 1925. - 7 DOUGS FILM COMING SOON "Thief of Bagdad" Scheduled for May 22-23 ~ Douglas Fairbanks' amazing pic- turization of the Arabian Nights, "The Thief of Bagdad," will be shown at Community House, Friday and Satur- day, May 22-23. The agility of the athletic Doug stands him in good stead as the adventurous THIEF OF BAGDAD. "The Thief of Bagdad" is generally considered as being, beyond question, the most extraordinary example of screen art known up to the present time. According to all accounts, it marks a distinct and radical advance in this popular form of entertainment, and places it on a higher plane than it has ever before attained. Douglas Fairbanks will be seen at his best as the agile happy-go-lucky rascal of old Bagdad. The story is based on the Arabian Nights tales and utilizes the services of thousands of people. Fairbanks' role is that of a thief who reforms and becomes a ver- itable prince, conquering unbelievable difficulties and finally winning the hand of the princess. To depict such happenings as are in "The Thief of Bagdad" has never be- fore been considered within the bounds of possibility. Some of the adventures are; the Thief mounted on the Winged Horse, flying up and through the clouds; the Thief and the Princess, on the Magic Carpet soaring above the house-tops and into the sky; the rais- ing of the magic army from nothing- ness, and the invisible cloak, by the aid of which the redoubtable thief reaches the presence of the princess. There will be matinees on Friday at 4 o'clock and on Saturday at 2:30; evening performances both nights at 7:15 and 9 o'clock. Temple Club Invites to Year's Last Party Tuesday evening, May 19, the Tem- ple club of the Winnetka Masonic temple will hold its last meeting of the season. The members are making this evening a guest night, and invite the wife, mother, daughter or sister of any Masons living in the community to be present on this occasion. The Temple club was formed a year and a half ago and has been responsi- ble for many enjoyable evenings at the temple. Membership in the club is open to the wife, mother, sister or daughter of any Mason living in the community whether or not a member of the Winnetka Lodge. The meeting will be called to order at 8 o'clock and, after a very brief business session, cards and dancing will be in order, followed by refresh- ments. Winnetka Masons Will Entertain Glencoe Lodge In February a large group of Ma- sons, members of Winnetka Lodge, visited Glencoe to pay their respects to the old home lodge and thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality that was ex- tended to them on that occasion.
