With all this suit swellness the prices are within easy reach. mrt SE ame i ot ---- 4 FROM APRIL 10TH TO MAY 13TH { TO THE RED CROSS. | The Demands Upon the Society Dur- ing the Next Few Months Will Be Unusually Heavy. .

At Griffin's. Marguerite Clark, widely known as "the sweetest girl in motion pictures," will 'headline a well selected pro- gramme at Griffin's for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, in her latest Paramount picture, "Rich Man, Poor Man."
