Price 'O THED31A WiAlA PICTURE AT OPERA HOUSE Theda Bara \in the William Fox super-production, "The Slirene's Song", will feature the progrjim for Friday at the Opera House. "The Siren's Song" is a powerful dramatic picture that tells in a new way the story of the eternal struggle of woman's love and sacriflee. Miss Bara portrays a little girl of Brittany, who is lbrought up in an environment of re.ligious severity. It shatters her love romance with a divinity student, and makes her gift of song a source of sorrow to her. liventually, by dint of a heart-breaking struggle, she be comes a noted prima donna. Regard less of convention, she lives with the man she loves until her minister-lover returns. He forces her to renounce the joys of loving. After she has made this supreme sacriflce she learns that the mInister is a hypocrite and that her spiritual regeneration made her blind to her true love-the man she sent away. "The Siren's Song," is a remarkable drama, which offers '.liss Bara excep tional opportunity to exhibit her great versatility. Sewing Machine Needles for all makes of machines just received. S.
