Ella Hall pliys the role of the little wife, who waits his return, only to pass on from sheer loneliness. Latwr she appears as the daughter who unexpectedly finds the father and brings to him the wel come news that he is not guilty of "the crime. It's a big drama and you don't want to miss it today at the Bijou.

Remarkable for magnificent interpre tation and exquisite settings, "A Price for Folly," an exceptional Blue Ribbon photo-drama produced by the Vita graph Company, does not aim at com monplace realism, but strikes deeper with an idealism that delves into tht mysteries of character, and it is all done in a spiritual way, possibly the veryi best way it could be done. Writ ten by George P. Dillenbaek, and pro duced by George D. Baker, the play has moments of fine structure and un qualified' sincerity of treatment. Edith Storey and Louise Beaudet surpass themselves, and there is not a flaw to be found in the splendid inter pretations of Antonio Moreno, Charles Kent and Harry Morey. Mr. Moreno is a veritable star of fine poise where poise Is needed and capable of inten sity when the role calls for it. Charles Kent rises to his opportunities in a way that makes one wish he had more of them Even those who ordinarily suf fer eclipse in minor parts caught the author's spirit, with a result that sym pathetic touches are strongly held at acute moments.

The members of the order assembled at 7:30 o'clock at their hall in the Odd Fellows' Building ana marched in body to the church, where special seats were reserved for them.

The speaker took his text from He brews, 13:1 "Let brotherly love con tinue." He spoke in part, as follows; "In the past epochs of history, re ligion, science, art, government and politics have been the dominant tools that civilization has used to carve its way to progress, but today these are to a great extent in the background and "Brotherhood" is the mighty in strument civilization is now using to accomplish its ends. "Brotherlv love, which is the very expressive phrase contained in my text. I take it exists in your order, other wi.s vonr order would not exist. Lei it continue! For rrtanhood is superior tn circumstances. The true man does not worrv about where he is, for no matter where he is, there is always abundant opportunity for him to strive for the better things of life. If your vision is large, the arena will prove large enough. But it your vision clouded your horizon will be narrowed. "You must be greater than your task or your task will swamp you. Tou must be greater than your temptation or your temptation will conquor you." Tn closing Mr. Craig declared that members of the Brotherhood througi Hnn ha.il eood ' reason to know the values of signals, and that he j would urge them to guard "Brotherly Love" as a precious signal of the pur poses of their order. "Let it con tinue," he added, "because it unites and couples us to each other and to the Man of Galilee."

LOCAL PYTHtANS HEAR SERMON By Rev. J. P Fte, at Bladen Street Church, on Subject of "Christian Service Good Music P '.ft However, One Armed Negro at Rocky Mount. Make His Eacape. Farrar appears as the star in another Lasky Feature Play Company produc tion following the unprecedented suc cess of "Carmen," is of intense interest to every photopray devotee in the world. Xot even her wonderful career in grand opera over-shadows .Geraldine Farrar's achievements on the 'screen, where she occupies, today a position un surpassed, and where she has set .an artistic mark that probably never will .be reached. - " "" " Miss Farrar's characterization of the fierv ParmPTi win remain forever in the memories of those who have seen her an imperishable , record. In her second photoplay, "Maria Rosa,"' pro duced for the Lasky Company .under the personal direction' of-Cecil B. De Mille, Miss Farrar reaches new: heights in photo-dramatic acting. In tne title part of "Maria Rosa" she appears as j a Spanish peasant girl, simple pf man ner and clean of thought and life, who is plunged into the midst of tragedy by " reason of the jealousy of an unworthy Peasant suitor. The scenes of this photoplay are laid in a little village in Spain. The char acters are simple folk, children, so to speak, in the ways of the great out- ome wuria, dui men a.u w ' strength ani force, of deep passions and sincere loves. In the midst of these human forces Maria Rosa be comes the centre of a drama, thrilling m its episodes, gripping in its appeal and happy in it's ending. This feature is to be presented at the wand today, in support of Miss Far pared by self-control during the forma tive period. The story is both.stron, and consistent.

After Ravine broueht his forty pints of liquor from Battleboro to this city and having r.orluded it under a wood pile, Will pv-.m ins. a one armed negro, hurried to the municipal building last night t nnprate a carriage on the streets of the city. The one armed negro orougm round of laughter when he explain ed that he wanted a license to operate transfer,' dray or in fact some sort of "license" was wanted. During this time, the oolice were cinching tneir clue and after the negro had returned home the officers went in searcn or the forty pints of liquor and it was found under the woodpile where it had been buried. The negro heard the ru mor of the find just a moment too soon to make possible his capture and ne dashed out of the house in the dead of night with hat, shoes or shirt and when seen by Officers Bell and Wheelas was making a lively get-away in tne wooas nearby. It so happens that the appli cation for license was denied but real ly it apears that he would have naa little use for it had it been granted. Speaking on the subject of "Christian Service," Rev. J.

In the course of a splendid sermon. the speaker pointed out me s11 things which could be accomplished through fraternalism coupled up with Christian service.
