To motion picture audiences thl' wide world over, Jackie represents a composite pf all the boy heroes cnr created by such authors of juvenil e fiction as Stevenson, Alger, Optic, Appleton, Stevens, Standish and others of similar note. And it is no sec ret that man y of the nation's great est men and women have read and arl' still reading such stories along with the ll!illions of boys and girls. The personification of what every mother \vould like to realize in her son, and of . what every boy would like to br, ] ackie Coogan has endeared him self to the picture-goers everywhere, and it will doubtless be of great intere st to these followers that ] ackie is to be see n in two pictures: "The Bugle Call" and "Buttons" this season. * * * which ha s evoked enraptured reviews from critics, will come to the Varsity Friday and Saturday-a De ~Iille production in which old storm -scarred sailing vessels and the . ea figure as background.

The picture wa ~ directed by Edward Sedgwick, creator of "Slide Kelly Slide," and C. Gardner Sullivan wrote the story. Thus, in thi~ hrief consideration of "The Bug!(' Call," we have a sneaking suspicion that we're going to more than like it. * '-'-THREE HOURS'~ with - Now Plaf:!ingThe Grand Old Man of the ScreenTHEODORE ROBERTS In Person in a brilliant sketch by Wm.
