The Ohio again will introduce a novelty musical program in addition to “Sackcloth and Scarlet.”
For the first half of the wek, the Isis will offer “The Trail Rider’ with Buck Jones. -I- -I- -I HISTORICAL BACKGROUND FIGURES LN NEW MOVIE Marion Davies comes to the Circle on Sunday in “Janice Meredith,” which is aclaimed by Eastern critics as the crowning achievement of that ■tax’s successful carver. Based on Paul Leicester E'ord’s novel, this picture is a historical romance embracing the ontn 9 ptriod of the Revolution War ar.d intertwined with the fascinating love story of the rebel daughter of a Tory and a bond-servant of noble ancestry, who becomes one of Washington’s most valuable aidea. The Boston Tea Party, Patrick Henry delivering his famous speech, the ride of Paul Revere, the Battle of Lexington, Washington crossing the Delaware and his defeat of the Hessians at Trentoir, Benjamin Franklin's successful appeal to the French Ellng for aid, and the surrender of the British at Yorktown, have all been faithfully depicted in this great production, which was directed by EL Mason Hopper. In this production, which has been given a lavish setting by Charles Urban, Miss Davies Is said to have a, suitable role. Harrison Ford, who played opposite her In "Little Old New York," again appears as the star’s leading man in this picture. The supporting oast includes: Hoi brook Blinn, George Siegman, W. C. Fields; Joseph Kllgour, Madlyn Arbuckle, May Vokes, Helen Lee Worthington and Olin Howa-d. In addition to “Janice Meredith,” the program will include the usual short subjects. -1- -I- + COOGAN’S LATEST PICTURE AT APOLLO Splendid entertainment for Jackie Coogan fans ia promised in “The Rag Man," the celebrated youngster’s first picture since his return from the Near East where he Journeyed on his famous mission of mercy, stopping anon at the capitals of Europe to hob nob with titled rulers and statesmen. Willard Mack wrote the story, a typical American tale, of a kid on the sidewalks of New York. Years before the story opens, old Ginsberg—young then and full of ingenuity and hope, perfected an Invention that revolnata.on(lzed the manufacture of sewing machines. Despite the tradition of his race Ginkberg, a poor business man, permitted himself to be defrauded. The story! of his misadventures in finance is related to little Tim, a mite whom he shelters when a neighborhood orphanage is destroyed by fire. Circumstances so adjust themselves to the lad’s shrewdness and Intelligence that he is enabled to find the men who have enriched themselves at Ginsberg's expense. How he persuades them to restore to Ginsberg the things that axe Ginsberg's Is told with directness and infinite charm. Max Davidson has the role of Gincberg.

MOTION PICTURES
SATURDAY, MARCH 14, ly Zo
The Lost World One scene in “The Lost World,” Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s story of prehistoric monsters nnd modern love, brought to the screen by Earl Hudson for First National, Is estimated to have cost $10,000,000—though not to the pro- | ducers.of the photodrama. The scene shows a volcanic eruption, with Bessie Ixjve. Lewis Stone, Wallace Beery and Lloyd Hughes, mingling in wild flight with the titantic reptiles of ages ago. At the time of its filming, a gigantic forest fire was raging In the California forests, and this was used as a background for the thrilling action. The fire, federal forestry officials estimated, cost the state and the nation a staggering sum, but it lent a vivid, rerJtislc setting to the picture, which will be generally released by First National following its current run at the Astor Theater in New York. This story is now appearing daily in The Indianapolis Times and will bo presented at the Circle. .
Ing lawns on Fifty-Eighth St. between Central and College Aves. was adopted. Marion County construction Company was awarded contract for paving Arizona St. between Uniiin and Talbott Sts. with asphalt. Total cost will be $2,046.76. Street will be completed June 15.
