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.
