"Near- jly a Lady" will probably be as much face, and makes life, whatever our lot may have been, all the better and sweeter and more worth the living. It is something that all of us should see, for it takes us back to the happy days that were and. still may be and serves as a balm for every aching heart, for the sweetest story ever told is "Silver Threads Among the Gold." i notices under head of "Amusements" are prepared and of this writer's unusual work as the public will ever see. The writer, all things considered, however, can hardly be blamed for resisting Bosworth's inducements, and preferring to stick to her present career. Especially view of the fact that the author is none other than the brilliant Elsie Janis herself.

Louise Rutter. who portrays the Other Woman in "Milestones of Life," a four-part Mutual master picture at the Ottoway today, enjoyed a nationwide reputation as a star of the legitimate stage before entering1 motion picture work. During the past several seasons she was cast for important roles in various Broadway successes and despite her youth had the lead in several noted productions. When Edwin Thanhouser offered her a position at his studios Miss Rutter immediately accepted. Word that she had deserted the stage for the motion picture studio reaching Broadway caused one of the biggest sensations of the year.

"Like many who have preceded me," Miss Rutter said recently, "I realize that the motion picture will soon take the place of the speaking stage. One has but to look at the list of former noted legitimate players who have gone over to the studios to bear cut my contention. In many respects studio work furnishes the player with unlimited opportunities of bringing forth the talent they possess which, in many instances, would be impossible on the speaking stage.

with the utmost pleasure and pride that the management of the Broadway theater presents to you tomorrow the immortal play based on the famous and everlasting song, ingly told that its appeal is all human and all compelling. The comedy of life, its pathos, its tragic moments and the tenderness of its love are all depicted in a way that cannot but touch every heart, and bring back to mind the almost forgotten, but still treasured memories of days of long ago. It is a story that will go echoing down from generation to genera tion as long as love rules the world. It is beautiful, with its ever-changing lights and shades, and its all powerful appeal to the best that lies in all of us, and however deep the good in us may lie, it is such a story as this that brings it to the sur- day, and we had to contract to show it at ten of our houses before the owners would consent to let us the nrice of admission, which It is a hidden weakness- this cause of cracks and pinholes a certain great fault of the ordinary type of "shade material.

It has been our intention to make this the hit of the season, and therefore wre have secured at an added expense "The East Avenue Tabernacle Quartet" to sing at appropriate places in the picture. Anyone who has heard this quartet knows well what they are capable of doing, and those who have not been so fortunate will no doubt be delighted with their splendid rendition of "Silver Threads Among the Gold" and other of the old favorite melodies.

The picture itself employs a cast of over two hundred people, all of whom are stars, but the lead is played by Richard J. Jose, the grand old man who first made this most heart-stirring of melodies famous when his silvery tenor floated out over the audience. The play is staged on an old rural homestead and in New York and it is an alternation of laughter and tears from beginning to end, as well as a vivid and. realistic picture of life in its constantly changing phases. It is a story suggested by the immortal song blendid with pathetic incidents from the life of the old man who made the song a household favorite wherever the English language is spoken.

The subject is well known and has lived through all the changing years, ever growing brighter, always new and undimmed In its tender and wistful pathos. It is something more than a picture. It is the simple old rural romance told again so freshly and truly that one cannot help but become imbued with the spirit of the story.
