VILLAGE THEATER SHOWS SPLENDID BILL NEXT WEEK Wallace Reid will be the headliner at the Village Theater on Monday and Tuesday of next week appearing in "The Roaring Road." There are several reasons why Mr. Reid is a top-notch screen star. He is classy, a man's man, an athlete, a splendid actor, and he has that gen- ial personality and magnetism which in large measure contribute to the success of men possessing those traits. An actor of wide experience and keen discrimination, he has the faculty of merging his personality with that of the character he assum- es, the result being a screen portrait that lives long in the memory. All of Mr. Reid's characterizations are ar- tistic and their naturalness is irresist- ably convincing. In his new photo- play, Mr. Reid is seen as a speed maniac, and he distinguishes himself not only by his superb portrayal of the role, but also by his daring and fearless driving of a racing car. Added features on Monday will be the customary Parthe News and a Christie comedy. The last episode of Houdini's "The Master Mystery" will be shown on Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday the film fans will be delighted with a new type of William S. Hart characterization. The vehicle is "The Poppy Girl's Husband" and is described as not a western picture. It is something new, according to the advance informa- tion. In this offering Hart rises to new heights, carrying the audience with him--taking the spectators out of themselves and transporting them to 'the very scenes depicted so graphically in the story- A Harold Lloyd Comedy and a Travel Weekly will be extra attrac- tions on Wednesday and Thursday. Vivian Martin will lead the bill on Friday and Saturday in her latest success, "Little Comrade." Now that the war is over, there is a tendency on the part of many to forget that the necessities for food production and conservation are as great as they were during the period of actual fighting, if not greater. Vivian Martin's new picture, "Little Comrade," is on this account par- ticurlarly timely, for it deals with a young farmerette who is determined to do what she can to produce food in spite of the hardships connected with the job. Start on Right Path With the almost numberless oppor- tunities for good and for evil that a city life presents, it is for each one, and especially for every young per- son to choose at first which path he | will pursue, which current to carry him along.--Philadelphia Ledger. of oxalic acid.
