YOUNG PERSONS CONFIRMED AT CHURCH SERVICE Rev, Otto B. Moor Preaches Sermon Against Wildness of Youth, “In these modern days ‘running away’ is youth's most popular sport,” said the Rev. Otto B. Moor in a confirmation sermon Palm Sunday at the Immanuel Reformed Church, Prospect and S. New Jersey Sts., on “Whence and Whither?” “At 12 many boys and girls have more education than their parents ever had.” he said. “Being favored, youth is tempted to think himself highly important. He is tempted to call his parents back numbers. “Then in his conceit he runs away from good home influences, from the control of his parents and from church associations. But thinking time comes to everybody. The sad thing for so many is that it comes too late. The question is sure to come, Whence comest thou?’ Follow Only Best Teachings “The best time for thinking time is now,” said Rev. Moor. “Whether you stay in your home town always or whether you go to the ends of the earth, if you remain a captive to the best that har been taught you in home and Sunday school and church you will always be at home with happy memories and with your God.” Nine boys and girls were confirmed. They were: Edward Bloemker, Eugene McClellan, Elmer Muegge, Edgar Hauenstein. Robert Wagener, Byron Knierm. Bertram Gerdts,* Miss Esther Neeson and Miss Nellie Thompson. A book called “The Child's Bible” was presented to each member of the class. Edward Bloemker, president, presented a globe of the world to the church. The class song, "Make Me a. Captive, Liord,” was sung by the confirmants.

Jane Grey Puts Herself in Hall of Fame; Barthelmess Presents a New Movie Idea
By WALTER D. HICKMAN . ANE GREY has made herself Us famous. _j Mary Oarr will always be remembered for her work as the mother in “Over the Hill” and Jane Grey will never be forgotten for her work as the wife who couldn’t keep pace with her husband in “The Governor's Lady.” Miss Grey has leaped to the first line of stars by her careful and intelligent work in “The Governor’s Lady.” David Belasco some seasons ago saw dramatic possibilities in this play and now a movie director takes hold of the story. There is only one triumph in this photoplay and it belongs to Miss Grey. Theie is a lot of domestic hokum, but it is ; the human stuff and not so terribly overdrawn at that. It concerns the failure of a sweet little home-loving wife who couldn’t become a “great Lady” when her husband grabbed off several millions for himself. The little wife, who had been his domestic slave for twenty years before the money rolled into the bank account, Just couldn't make the social grade. Rather sounds like the old, old story, but Miss Grey brings so much sincere charm and mental sufferiiMT to the role that you are bound to agree that she has created a movie role of great strength. I am willing to put her work down as one of the real accomplishments in character work on the screen in the last ten years. Robert Haiijps plays the role of the husband who forgot the early loyalty of his wife. The picture has been well directed by Harry Millarde. Here is a human picture with smiles and tears in it, and it contains some of the best acting (on the part of Miss Grey) that I have seen on the screen for years. My advice is don't miss “The Governor's Lady” at the Apollo this week. Will Rogers has a clever .satire on the rnovles in "Big Moments From Little Pictures.'' He does a burlesque on the bull fighting scene of “Blood and Sand,” first played on the screen by Valentino. He also pokes fun at Douglas Fairbanks and other well known screen players. Good fun. At the Apollo all week.
LOT OF RUSSIAN HORROR IN “THK N REM)E/VOl S" Marshall Neilan, a splendid director, has gone all wrong in "The Rendezvous.” Recently the Russians have been prominent on the stage as well as highly profitable, and probably Neilan thought that a Russian nightmare would prove 1 entertaining. Here jgA. M is a weird and • A j unsatisfying attempt to he dra- * ■ matie and even IjtA? morbid in a Ruspfe JMm sian setting. I JgmjSßk can't imagine S HEHpSg : . ygjß jMBSpTsK rn i c? a-mains mytery to ri.e. The cast is composed CONRAD NAGEL of some real pople such as Conrad Nagel, Lucille Ricksen, Elmo Lincoln. Sidney Chaplin, Kate Lester, Kathleen key and Richard Travers. The picture has only one triumph and that is the work of Chaplin as an English tommy. If it was not for the comedy work of Chaplin, this pitcure wouldn’t have a laugh in it. When Chaplin is present, one forgets all about Siberia.
Faster morning at 6:30. The Rev. 1.. C. Fackler is pastor. “CROP OF HUMAN SOULS” Need of "Grana - . ies of God" Told by Cleveland Speaker. “The world needs a crop of human souls gathered into the granaries of God,” said George W. Soerheide. superintendent of the Cleveland Gospel Center, at English's Sunday afternoon. "It is time churches rejoice at the prospect of harvesting souls,” he said. GIRLS WILL PRESENT PAGEANT “Dawn of Faster" to Be Given at Third Christian Church. “The Dawn of Easter,” a special Easter pageant, will be given by junior girls of the Third Christian Church next Sunday. Speciul music has been arranged. SOUTH SIDE CHURCHES UNITE Joint Services Will Be Held on Good Friday. Methodist Episcopal churches of the south side will join in Good Friday services at the Woodside M. E. Church from 10:30 a. m. to 3:16 p. m. Friday. There will be numerous prayer periods with various leaders in charge.
There is one character in this story that is certainly the wild bird. His pet hobby is to break the ear drums of women upon whom he seeks revenge. “The Rendezvous” is just plain, unadorned Russian tragedy with one comedy character. Nearly forgot to tell you that the villain (the man who breaks tha ear drums of women) is locked In a tomb by a woman who couldn’t hear his screams. That is one villain I wanted to see killed. The bill includes organ music by Lester Huff, songs by Ed East, music by Charlie Davis, orchestra and a spat comedy. "H.t the High Spots.” At the Ohio all week. •I- -I- -IBARTHELMESS TEACHES LESSON TO UNFORTUNATE PEOPLE Dick Barthelmess by appearing in “The Enchanted Cottage” attempts to drive home a rather intellectual problem. His message is: Beauty is as beauty does. “The Enchanted Cottage" teaches the lesson that a crippled man may become “beautiful” in the eyes of a woman and that an “ugly” woman may become lovely in the eyes of even a crippled man. The movie public does not like to see its leading men all crippled and ugly in figure. crutches. So Dick gives her up and MAY seeks quiet in a MacAVOY cottage in the country. There he meets a girl who has an ugly face. She Is just the uglY duckling and no Rcmeo ever gave her a second look, although she was a good girl. Dick and the girl (played by May MacAvoy) decide that they are both ugly and so they marry. When they fall in love again they dream that both are realty beautiful. In these make-believe scenes Barthelmess throws off his deformity and Mary becomes really beautifuj. But they are made to realize by practical people that they only ini ag.ne they are beautiful and so they decide to keep away from the world and see each other through their own eyes. It is a pretty thought and a pleasing lesson. It is "anew sort of a Barthelmess role hut the photoplay Jias been directed with much skill. This picture does not compare with Barthelmess’ best picture, “Tol-able David " but the “Cottage" is pretty romance and actually holds your interest. The bill at the Circle includes an overture. "La Boheme”; a Christie oomedy. “Fun From the Press," and C'irclette of News.” At the Circle all week -|. -|. -|. LARGE AUDIENCE HEARS IVOGUN IN SUNDAY RECITAL The largest audience this season, both in numbers and enthusiasm greeted prano.

100,000 People Visited the / Home-Complete Exposition The Home Complete Exposition was a wonderful success, beautiful, inspiring and educational. Ideas were gathered which toill make the homes of Indianapolis more attractive and comfortable, and the houses more complete from cellar to ridge-pole. The first essential of a comfortable, complete home is water bath, toilet, kitchen, laundry, garage, lawn—each has its special equipment for the convenience of the family. Modern plumbing fixtures are the visible emblems of a complete domestic water supply; but underground, and out of sight, is a labyrinth of pipes carrying pure and wholesome water, under good pressure, to all parts of the city where homes exist. The Indianapolis Water Company has laid 502 miles of feeder and distribution mains under the streets and highways of the city—a length sufficient to , ' y stretch from Indianapolis to Washington. THE WATER IS AT YOXJR DOOR . USE IT FREELY , BUT DO NOT WASTE IT. / \

one in the audience would have suspected it, for she did not falter in a single bar or note, and In a program of this kind, the full capacity of the voice was necessary. She reached her high notes with ease, her shading was beautiful, her modulations effective, and her interpretation was faultless. Her accompanist, Bruno SeidlerWinkleF, not only deserves credit for his perfect work at the piano, but received applause for the several arrangements which he has so admirably made. The entire program was appreciated by every one, and when the “Spring Song" was given as an encore, the applause lasted for fully three minutes. The “Blue Danube” nearly created a riot, and the last encore by Dvorak was greeted with prolonged applause, and the artist and her accompanist came out again and again. The next concert will be given by Leonard Shure, the boy pianist, at 8 o’clock on April 27. (By Observer.) -I- I- -IONE OF DOUG’S EARLY PICTURES AT SMITH’S When a star becomes famous it is the custom of producers to re issue early pictures of the star. This has been done in the case of Douglas Fairbanks. Mister Smith’s this week is presenting one of Fairbanks’ earlier pictures, “When the Clouds Roll By.” It might be called an optimistic movie, as it Is Doug's theory that tc make the world happier the individual must set an example. That is what he does in the movie. Kathleen Clifford is chief in the supporting
