"A man kin sometimes say sumpin' in half a minute dat he can't explain in five Fears." yez Driver O’Flannagan (to his horse, which refuses to get up after falling): “Well, of all the lazy spalpeens. Get up, will yez, or 0’11 drive right over This beautiful and convincing story and exquisite photoplay of mother- love is presented with a special mu- sical setting. Three years pass. John ig released from prison and comes back home to find his father is dead, his mother has been neglected by all of the other children, and the hypocritical Isaac has even appropriated for his own use the money that should have gone to support his aged mother. She has even been evicted from her own home and sent to the poor-house. How John comes to the rescue, saves his mother from poverty, punishes his hypocritical brother and drags him through the streets, is told in vivid and dramatic scenes. John's faithful sweetheart, ever confident of his iniao- cence, welcomes him with open arms, and it is a happy home indeed when the mother returns to her old home to find that even though some of her children may have neglected her, the black-sheep turns out to be the only white one, all wool and a yard wide. 1 Finally, the children are grown to manhood and begin life's occupations. The two sisters marry. Isaac, the cad, becomes a prosperous business man, and only John, the black-sheep, is left alone with his mother, although he, too, has a sweetheart. The father, careless, lazy, and good-for-nothing, is accused of horse-stealing and Cir- cumstances are such that to protect his father from going to jail John takes upon himself the burden of the crime. It almost breaks the heart of his mother and of his pretty sweet, heart when he is sent to prison for a, crime he did not commit, but the weak father, hesitating to confess the truth, permits the sacrifice. l The Story of 'Over the Hill" deals with a mother, acted by Mary Carr, who endeavors to raise her children in the path of righteousness and with that end in view she makes every sacrifice so that her children may have the proper schooling and com- forts. Unfortunately, her husband is a genial good-for-nothing, who even goes so tar as to become involved in a crime rather than work. In the family, there are four brothers and two sisters. John, the hlack-sheep of the family, is a lovable harutn-scarum boy, who is constantly getting into mischief, while Isaac, the eldest, is a cad, and a hypocrite. Produced in New York by William Fox in September ot 1920, without ostentation, without undue exploita- tion, without any furore or newspaper fireworks, the fame ot the simple and beautiful picture, "Over the Hill," spread like wild-fire. All who saw it sent hundreds of their friends. News- papers hailed it as one of the great and crowning artistic triumphs of the motion picture world. Clergymen preached sermons about it. Editors wrote editorials advising every moth- er's son and daughter to see "Over the Hill.” The result of this word-of- mouth advertising was to send such crowds to see "Over the’Hill” that William-Fox repeatedly extended the engagement, leasing one theatre after another and moving "Over the Hill” continuously until it was finally pre- sented at six different theatres on Broadway. It must be remembered also that "Over the Hill" was present- ed in leading first class Broadway theatres, at the top scale of $2.00 for the best seats, and for many weeks this single attraction playing daily matinees drew the remarkable gross business of: more than $22,000 per week. These figures are absolutely accurate and have been the marvel ot all who have been familiar with the presentation of feature pictures on Broadway. _ t" There is no suggestion of big, mas- sive scenes, no spectacular effects, no crowds __-_ nothing but the simple, thrilling and powerful story that touches the heart of all humanity and brings everyone to realize the love and affection with which a mother's memory should always be revered. Founded upon the famous poem by Will Carleton, this simple story of the devotion of a mother for her children in spite or the trials and tribulations to which they subject her, is one of the most appealing and lovable stories ever screened. Staged under the direction of Harry Millarde, it has relied for its great strength with the public upon the simple theme and plain story of a mother and her family whom she carefully rears and pro- tects. One of' the 'great epoch-making photoplays of many years is the beau- tiful,Mrilliam Fox photo drama ot mother-love entitled "Over the Hill," which will be seen at the Beaver Theatre entire week December 5th. “OVER THE HILL" MOST PoWI9tPUL OF ALL )lODIGliN MOTION PICTURE DRABIAS There is a powerful love story lun- ni.:g (Trough the film.

Rome is burned from en'd to end, v,hile, the terror stricken popl;lace t"ees in confusion. Gladiators light deadly combats in the arena, and kill each other at the sign of Nero’s in- verted thumb , and Nero dies by his own hand. The picture places before its audi- ence the actual Appian Way, the Col- iseum, the Forum, Emperor Nero's Palace and Banqueting Halls, the Eternal City, Rome itself, and many other historical scenes. Every scene is real. Realism is in evidence in mob scenes, the torturing of the early "Quo Vadis", the first big motion picture ever presented in America. and one of the most sensational, thrilling and dramatic films ever pro- duced, tells a most powerful story. The play was adapted from the world- famed story of Henry Sienkiewicz‘s novel. In its realistic and faithful effects and details the motion picture is a masterpiece of its kind. _ The picture places before its audi- ence the actual Appian Way, the Col- iseum, the Forum, Emperor Nero's "QUO YADIS" SPECTACLE IS PICTURE OF CENTURY At the Oakwood December 5. G, "Well," came the cautious reply of one evidently given to a noncommittal brevity of speech, "it ain't done me no good." "Are you hurt, my friend?" kindly asked a, gentleman, who was first among the rescuers, as he helped the stranger to his feet and brushed the mild and dust from his clothes. While making a visit to New York, a man unmistakably of country origin was knocked down in the street by an automobile. A crowd instantly surrounded him with condolences and questions. 2 and 3. Knowing that "Mid-Channel" is the greatest play on modern mar- ried life that the world's most fore- most dramatist, Sir Arthur Wing Pin- ero, has ever written, and that this masterpiece aroused such a sensation when it was first published, because of the startling revelations it made, it is easy to explain the tremendous popularity that this production rill have, especially when Clara KimEall Young, responsible for many of the screen's greatest achievements, excels her own best effort, if that is possible. in the difficult role of Zoe Blu'ndell. the abused and neglected wife of Theodore.

Garments were then cut out for the Soldiers' Settlement and distributed among the members to be returned completed at the next meeting. The ladies are looking after two families of ten children and have already sent a complete outfit of clothing for each child and for the mothers.

The home of Mr. and Mrs. S. Mc-, Lellan was the occasion of a very pleasant gathering on the evening of Tuesday, November 15th, when the neighbors and friends to the number of twenty-one were entertained to a fowl supper in appreciation of the kindness and help to harvest, etc., during Mr, McLellan’s illness. After supper euchre and games and dancing were engaged in till a. late hour. T Mrs. Marshall gave some years in voluntary assistance in the mission ot her son, and has been of signal service not only there, but in keeping the local branch informed as to those supplies most really needed for the work. Her services had, therefore singled her out as one whom the branch delighted to honor. So while the form provided for the creating of life membership was being read by the rector, the certificate was handed her, and the badge pinned on. the former being the gift of the members, the latter the gift of Miss C. Tier. Mrs. Marshall had been for some years a member of this brarwh while living in Islingtom while her son, William, was of the staff of the Union Bank, and one 'time warden of St. George's. Another son, the Rev, John F'. J. Marshall, is a missionary at Norway House, Winnipeg, Sask., in whose Work, and that of his esteemed wife, the branch has taken a deep interest. A pleasing feature of the business meeting of this branch held on Thurs- day, Nov. 10th, at the home ot Mrs. A. B. Anderson, Islington, was the presentation of a lite membership to Mrs. Frances Elizabeth Marshall. Mrs. Wisner, who is in charge of the brick fund, reported $106.78 from all sources.
