"THE SPIRIT OF 17."
At the Palace Theatre to-night-Jack Pickford will lead : the cast in "The Spirit of 17." The title gives; an idea of the nature of the picture, which is a war film. The spirit thafr actuated the warriors of the War of" Independence^ and the later tragedy of civil war is shown to be working: in the younger generation, and when, the great call came the response wasquick and ample. What Americahas done in the great upheaval isknown.to everybody, and the picture-' to be shown to-night is a- martial story of good endeavor. Sheriff Nell' is 'a ■well-known,.., Sennett, character" and Polly Moran can always raise a. laugh. The picture that is on tonight's bill is provokingly funny. A Burton Holmes travel Series,' andf the latest Paramount Gazette com--plete the bill.
