THEDA VAMPS AGAIN. While Theda Bara is causing much : ‘•omment in New York by her personal appearance In a spoken drama, "The Blue Flame,” her shadow will be on view at the Alhambra the first half of next week In “Lure of Ambition." That's the advantage of having a money-making shadow because the shadow can work while the shadow maker; is at work on the speaking stage. In the movie Theda has a chance to j vamp. Her ambition in this movie play is to ! use men as stepping stones to achieve j the end she has in view. Theda starts out as Olga Dolan, a girl ! of the slums, but when she completes her conquest of ruined lives she is the j wife of a duke. Sounds like the real 6tuff for this su- \ preme screen vampire.Tha story was written by .Tulia Burnham and Edmund Lawrence, the latter I also directing the production. Supporting Miss Bara are Thurlow Bergen, William B. Davidson, Ida Waterman, Dan Mason and Dorothy Drake. The bill will include a Christy comedy.

DIAL HONORS FOR OLIVE THOMAS. Olive Thomas does not have to rely upon a. playwright to turn out a story for her to act. N'ot much. Olive sets down to a typewriter and grinds out "Youthful Folly." She then takes it to a movie produ ing plant and tells her director that she will act the leading role There is no argument and Olive Thomas’ very' own movie ploy will be on view at the Colonial all week, starting Sunday. In "Youthful Folly" she appears in the role of Nancy Sherwood, bubbling with youth and beauty, who finds life dull and dreary on the run-down plantation where site lives with h-r three aunts, who never see things the way she does. The first real glimpse of the outside world and society aud pleasure comes to her when her second cousin, who married a wealthy New Yorker, visits their home. This relative, Mrs. Ainsley, is unhappy because she married for money and found out too ate that she loved another man.
