Viola Dana to Be Seen
In “Seeing’s Believing”
When Viola Dana, the fascinating
Metro star, comes to The Criterion
Theater on Sunday in her new pic-
ture called “Seeing’s Believing,”
she will appear in a role that ex-
actly suits her piquant, charming
personality. It is just the type of
part that Miss Dana plays so well,
and her many friends will be de-
lighted with her acting in this new
comedy-dram a.
Miss Dana enacts the role of
Diana Webster, a millionaire or-
phan. Diana and her aunt’s suitor
are obliged to pose as married
when, on their way back to the city
they are obliged to put up at the
town’s only hotel. A few days later
when she returns to her home, she
finds a friend of her brother who
had been a guest at the hotel when
she had stopped there. She informs
him that she is not married, but be-
fore she has a chance to explain
further, he tells her that he will
safeguard her “secret.” As far as
he Is concerned, “seeing's believ-
ing."
In support of Miss Dana are Al-
lan Forrest. Edward Connelly, Ger-
trude Astor, Philo McCullough,
Harold Goodwin, Josephine Crowell
and others.

“Hail the Woman” Greatest
Classic, Film Critics Say
Declared by critics to be one of
the greatest photoplay classics of
all time—a human epic of trium-
phant realism—"Hail the Woman,”
Thos. H. Ince’s super drama of
American life, is coming to The
Folly Theater Sunday and Monday.
There are as many different opin-
ions as to what constitutes a “good
;picture” in the fullest sense of the
word, as there are colors in a rain-
bow! Yet all opinions agree on
!:he subject of “Hail the Woman.”
One critic, who prides himself on
having seen every production of
note in the realm of motion pic-
tures, sat spellbound through the
pre-view of “Hail the Woman.”
Florence Vidor, who takes the
role of the “triumphant woman,”
gives a deep interpretation of those
qualities of womanhood that direct
the fate of humanity throughout the
aeons. She is supported by a bril-
lant cast, including Madge Bella-
my, Gertrude Claire, Theodore Rob-
erts, Lloyd Hughes. Tully Marshall,
Charles Meredith, Edward Martin-
del, Mathilde Brundage, and others.

My Most Embarrassing
Moment
One dollar will be paid each
week for the best paragraph en-
titled, “My Moat Embarrasing
Moment” Name and address
published unless otherwise re-
quested.
Proud Mother—My son will be
America's greatest artist one ot
these days. Every spare minute
he has he it found drawing,
drawing, drawing. He Is al-
ways drawing something.
Visitor—Yes, ©Ten when he It
sleeping, he*s drawing Ms breath.
It is needless to tell how this
trite remark embarrassed me,
for the moment, yet I have
laughed often over It since and
have realised how a mother’s
brag can embarrass people not
interested in her child.
