LLASALLE STREET Central 6785 CHICAGO Varsity Theater to Show "Home James" Next Week Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. and Jobyna Ralston, have the leading roles in "The Toilers," which will be shown at the Varsity theater in Evanston this Sat- urday, September 8. The story's locale is a little mining town. Steve (Mr. Fairbanks) lives with a couple of mid- dle aged miners who adore him, and with them works down in the coal mines underneath the ground. On Christmas eve he rescues an orphaned Mary from what is commonly spoken of as "worse than death" and from then on the three miners have Mary on their hands. At first all of them stren- uously object to her company. Then love hits Steve and he falls. It takes a gruesome mine disaster to bring the other two around. "Home James," with Laura LaPlante and Charles Delaney is the Varsity attraction for next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Miss LaPlante im- personates a young lady who leaves the small town in which she lives to become a great success in New York as a portrait and landscape painter. She fails to realize her dream even as her stepmother and everybody else had prophesied she would, and obtains a position as clerk in a department store, where she labors in the picture depart- ment. But she doesn't let the folks know the truth. She makes them sick with glowing reports that finally bring Stepmamma and a bosom crab to the city to see what they shall see. In the meantime, Laura has been having a romance with one whom she believes to be a chauffeur, but who is really the son of Lacey, who owns the depar:- ment store. The W. C. T. U. of Wilmette and Winnetka is to meet at the home of Mrs. Charles Aspenwall, 1195 Tower road, next Monday, September 10, at 2 o'clock.
