"The Heart of a Hero" a story which once seen will never be forgotten. Founded on the events we never tire hearing and reading about, it describes the dangers and worries of those brave souls who made possible our present day prosperity. It begins at the peaceful Xew England school house where Nathan Hale is engaged. The industrious people of the time are presented at work and at play. Then rapidly the action changed and the dissension with England begins to assume large proportions. We are now carried through the days when to pledge allegiance to the Colonists meant practically gambling away one's life. The success of their perseverence is responsible for our present preminence as a Nation. Though showing extensively the events which transpired, the play follows chiefly the life of Xathan Hale up to the point where he rendered his immortal speech, *'I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.'* This is undoubtedly the most appealing play to apear in years and the two stars have never given better roles nor have they ever played the roles assignee! Them quite as well. The story of ''The Heart a Hero"' is full of acts of self sacrifice. Robert Warwick makes of Xathan Hale a character you will always remember. His sweetheart.

You will be given an opportunity to see just how. great were the hardships our forefathers had to undergo in order that today we might be a free nation. Rental, $10.00 per night.

"Now" said the president of the mining company, "let your eye make a dotted line to this point in the mapv, placing his finger on Paragonia, Central America. Douglas Fairbanks fixed his concentrated gaze on the pink-colored, triangular section dotted with volcanoes and murmured, "It"s far, far from Brooklyn and I will not go." The president tried to make Fairbanks accept his proposition. He offered him a good salary to go down to Paragonia and open the mines. But money had no charms as compared to Brooklyn, New York, with its Oueensboro subway, its proximity to Coney Island, and its nice, neat little haberdashery shops with their brcezv Arrow colars, tailored suits and custom shoes. Just then Douglas saw Alma Rubens. She was playing the role of Senorita Tuana de Castille, daughter of the Presidente of Paragonia. Her dark eyes. Spanish beauty, exquisite charm, suggestion of balcony romance and moonlight [17]
