A T THE WHITNEY
I'
"A Dangerous Girl," under the direc-
tion of Edward W. Roland, is the story
of a working girl in a big down town
office. "Dealing with that most inter-
esting subject, woman," says the press
agent, "the play is full of truth, vivid-
ness and life, and is presented by a
company of exceptional merit, togeth-
er with a scenic equipment that leaves
nothing to be desired."
AT THE ARCADE
Today the Arcade will present Viola
Dana in "Blue Jeans." One of the
best known melodramas on the Ameri-
can stage was the play from which
this picture was taken. Viola Dana
as June has one of the best roles of
her career, and the thrilling story of
the little poorhouse girl in blue over-
alls is especially interesting. Clifford
Bruce supports Miss Dana in the play.

Hominy company, in reply to a tele-
gram sent by Mr. Fred Heusel, one of
the leading bakers in the city, reads.
"Have withdrawn from the market on
corn flour and have none to offer."
The American Hominycompanyis
one of the largest corn flour mills in
the middle west.
Cash Basis
Another large mill writes, "For the
reason that we are under restriction
not to open any new accounts and to
reduce gradually those we have, all
transactions will be made on a strictly
cash basis."
In order that the United States can
fulfill her promises to the Allies in re-
gard to the grain situation, Food Ad-
ministrator Hoover yesterday urged
extensive use of home substitutes in
place of wheat flour. Potatoes are be-
ing piled up in such large quantities
all over the country that they are
spoiling on the producers hands.

about that famous stage play, "BLUE JEANS" that had a straight run for two years in New
York City when he was one of the boys,-and remember that the possibilities of the screen are
infinitely greater than the old fashioned stage-and therefore that the screen rendition of this great
production to be shown at THE ARCADE to-day is far better than the original, which, like
"The Old Homestead," was one of the most popular plays of its day.

Read what two of the leading motion picture nagazines say about this feature:
MOTION PICTURE NEWS:
This is a picture of a play thta is always entertaining. It contaius moments of power- and a last-minute
adjustment of happiness that is executed with great skill. Viola Dana as June gives this star a splendid a
chance for the full play of her capabilities. The support, direction and titles are all exceptionally fine.
MOTOGRAPHY:
"Blue Jeans" has returned to spread its thrills an d pathos and story of love over the emotions of picture
fans. As a play twenty years or so ago it went on record as one of the most successful ever 'produced. It has
now reached the screen in one of the most satisfying productions of the day, worthy in every respect to take
its rank among the classics of picturedom. Farces may come, and comedies may go, but melodramas go on
forever, and "Blue Jeans" is undoubtedly one of the best melodramas ever written. It may be said without
parley that this picture does not contain a single dull moment. From the first appearance of Viola Dana as
Ju'he, to the famous sawmill scene at the end, one is vitally interested in the scenes unfolded, and powerless to
resist the picture's,charm. Exhibitors who offer this, feature to their patrons will be conferring a favor upon
them which they will not forget. Viola Dana perform s with a simplicity and charm which endears her 'to
spectators from the start. She is really delightful.
