compositions pectc-d will be de. clared winners and ranked according to the correctlvens of their an werf. The recital given last Wednesday by the Ms..s IlfUn Guilfoyle and Josephine Decker did mueh to further the esteem with which thes local artists are held. Mis Decker a ' a contralto and Miss Guilfoyle fn the piano were ver' satisfying and each deserves much credit for her work. Miss Cuilfoyle' plaving has developed to the point where she is eminently fitted for a much broader concert field than she has ever before attempted. Do you think that there is much musical talent lying dormant In South Bend bocause of lak of encnuragement or opportunity to exploit itself? Tho management of the new Blackstone theater does, and from present indications this city will profit much from a musical standpoint by the coming of this corporation. In addition to having a symphony orchestra of from 10 to IS pieces, f laying both afternoon and evening, the munacrement intends to engage local Kolointfl who measure up to a reasonable standard. Opportunity for a public hearing will in this1 way b- given musical .students and professional musicians who desire to enter the concert fit 1.1. Angelo Vitale, formerly director of the Vitale concert band which toured this country will have charge of thp- orchestra. An organist of high merit will play when the orchestra Is not present. Today's concert of the South Bend "mrhony orchestra, Frederick Ingersoll conducting, will be given in the Chamber of Commerce building at ." o'clock without the assistance of a soloist. The program, however, has many interesting features among which aro Xicolai's "The Merry Wives of Windsor" and a serenade for four violins and piano. The attendenco has noticeably increased at each concert and it is probable that tho encouragement given the organization will prompt the orchestral association, which is sponsoring the roneerts. to provide South Bend with a symphony orchestra annually. The final concert of the series this season wiil be given next Sundav at the usual time and place and Louis Illbel. ono of the most capable pianists in this state, has been engaged to idve a half-hour recital in connection with the orchestral program. The program for this afternoon i- as follows: 1 "'bimse Lullabv" by I:. H. Bowers: 11 Three characteristic songs, ;n "All Souls Pav" by Strauss, (b) "A'Song Of India" by Himsky-k'orsekora, (c) "The Nib'" by Xavier I.eroux; .1 "In The Sight f Tho oasis" and "An Indian legende" by Baron; 4 "Serenade For Four Violins and Piano" with Harry Geis, Wilda Shonts, Tony CiConno .and Frederick Ingersofl on violins and Bthel Starr at the piano; "Four Poetic Album Leaves" by G.

love, presented with reality and simplicity that go straight to the heart. Dr. Frank Crane called "Humoresque" a "whopping human treasure." No bunkum or cheap sentimentality has been permitted to creep into the photodrarna which gains its great effects by a straightforward telling of a very human Ktory. Fannie Hurst wrote "Humoresque" for a magazine.

Hy W. W. DUNKLll Hector Fuller, for a number of years a prominent writer cf theatrical affairs in Indianapolis, and during the world war one of the most brilliant correspondents in Europe. Is In South Bend. For the past two years Mr. Fuller has teen associated with D. W. Griffith, the master director of motion pictures. His latest and greatest picture. "Way Down Fast" Is coming to the Oliver fur one week. Ptarting Sunday, Dec. 5, and Mr. Fuller is paving the way for the coming of the big attraction. The nam "Way Down Last" Is familiar to theater-goers for many years. It has been a standard success in the legitimate theater because of its human story. That D. W. Griffith should buy the rights of screen production was a surprise to some. As a photoplay spectacle it could not compare with "The Birth of a Nation." "Intolerance." and other masterpieces of this artistic producer. But Mr. Griffith knew that the

story of Anna Moore was a human

document with a universil appeal. He calls it a simple story of plain people and also states that it is his choicest photoplay. Time. money and the master technique are lavished on this marvel of the camera. For more than, three months capacity audience attended the showing of til" picture in one of New York's largest and best known legitimate theaters:. After the'South Bend fngagement the picture goes to the Wood's theater. Chicago, for an indefinite tam. Pictures have never been shown in this theater before. Observe Regular Soalo. Th.- regular scale of diamatfc attraction prices will be ( harped. For tiie op ning performance, in Chicago, when Mr. Griffith. himself, will be present. Jl't a seat will be eharged.

ich favorites

as Lillian Gish. who has Leen under

Mr. Griffith's direction for the past 12 years and he has secured wonderful results in winsome, pathetic, passionate acting from this will-o'-the-wisp little actress. The result is 100 percent in acting and direction. Richard Barthelm: s. who played opposite Miss Gish in "Brök, en Blossoms," has the part of David and makes the best of every opportunity. Burr Mcintosh, an old time legitimate actor has the role of Squire Bartlett. Kate Brice. Creigh-j ton Hale and others of the support-i

ing cast are the best players for the

respective roles obtainable. Has Rip: Thrill. The big thrill in "Way Down Fast" is reserved, of necessity, for the closing moments, when David rescues Anna from death at the falls in the Ice-Jammed river. The scene is said to be the most thrilling ever depicted on screen or stage. At the New York premiere this scene swept an audience of "hard boiled" motion picture experts off their feet. Hundreds stood up and yelled, and other hundreds remained riveted to their seats, spellbound. Mr. Griffith and his wizards of the camera not only use the dreamy "fade out" and misty "close-ups," so effectively employed in "Broken Blossoms," but have introduced various colors to produce marvelously effective work. In this production he has blended story, acting, photography and music Into something nearer perfection than has ever been dreamed of before.

Tho doctor who holds to the opinion that whisky is the only thing that will help a weak heart will find men waiting on his prescription.

NOTE We wish to call especial attention to the remarkable acting of the horse and dog in this production. Tom Mix's horse, Tony, is called the "horse with human brains." His dog, Bart, is one of the greatest and best trained dogs in the world. What they do in 'THE UNTAMED" will startle you. And "THE UNTAMED" is pronounced Tom Mix's greatest western drama. Don't miss him, whatever you do. Also extra added special MONTY BANICS in 'THE FLIVVER WEDDING," a 100 percent comedy with hundreds of sure fire laughs; and TOPICS OF THE DAY, (read 'em and laugh). This is Mix's first appearance here in some time and because of the fact there will be great crowds here to welcome him so be wise, just once, and avoid the night crowds by coming to the matinees.
