remarkable appeal to the general public, that public which is not in the habit of going to the theatre regularly. Year after year this highly favored story, with its wail of Hawaiian music, comes along and assembles the crowds. Nor does it appear to have run its course yet. If the audiences of its past engagement are any criterion, it will probably bo coming along a decade or two hence, with its music still wailing and its volcano still sputtering. People will measure the years of their activity by "The Bird of Paradise." Not since the hey-day of "Way Down East" has there been a piece of theatrical property as valuable as this Hawaiian story. ,': The reason for its hold on the. public taste is its exotic atmosphere, its

The picture has such a multiplicity of features that it should afford splendid entertainment to all, according to the reviews of those who have seen it. There is life in the frozen North where dare-devil men risk their lives, interesting views of the life of those wonderful dogs of the arctic, magnifi

cent Bettings of home life among the dissipated circles of blatant money squanderers, and a delightful love story..

--Among the important players in the cast are Martha Mansfield, who plays opposite Eugene O'Brien, Frank Whitson, and George Stewart. WEST. RICHMOND FRIENDS FILM IS ANNOUNCED The photo-drama entitled "The Stream of Life" will be given at the West Richmond Friends Church on Monday evening, April 4 at 7:30 o'clock. .

The "Stream of L'.fe" strikes a new note in pictures spoken of as equally great as Griffith's "The Birth of a Nation." The picture is the story of a young man born in the simple life of a country farm. He goes to the city and in the vicissitudes of life is plunged into profound grief and despair. He eventually finds his way to the real satisfactions of life, and the stream which began in a quiet , way as a rivulet

winds its course finally out into the

great sea. . , -, ,

Among many comments of this re markable Picture of life is this "Never

before have we witnessed a thing so gripping, so soul-stirring and yet bo

simple, sp fascinatingly guileless. It is instructing, entertaining, elevating." Children under 16 years of aee will

be charged no admission. ; Adults will pay 15 cents. - : '",

, .r . VICTORY . The lyrical beauty of the music of Victor Herbert's score for the romantic Irish American operetta, "Eileen," wh.ch Barry McCormack . presents at the Victory , theatre. Dayton. , for four nights commencing Sunday, Ayri 3, is considered to be the finest work of

Herbert's caraer. The music is dramatic, melodious and expressive, and in every way equals bis finest efforts in "Mile. Modiste" and excels, in general, -the complete score of that immortal piece. The story, by Henry Blossom, is Jn brilliant dialogue and moves very swiftly in dramatic intensity from the opening of the first act, outside the tavern of "The Sign of the Black Bull" somewhere on the west coast of Ireland in 1798, to the closing scene which takes place in the high walled garden of Lord Estabrooke's castle. ' The fulfillment of Victor Herbert's life's ambition, the writing of a real Irish opera, and its great success brings to Dayton a musical event as
