Tex follows her across the border and finally effects her rescue. Watch for "The Woman Thou Gavest Me."' This striking film will be screened on December 7. LYCEUM PICTURES. WEDNESDAY. Constable Talmadge's latest Select picture, "The Lesson," is a highly entertaining photoplay, wholesome, delightful and masterfully produced, a refreshing, clean breath of spring air in the stifling atmosphere of the sexstressing melodramas which crowd the screen to excess. As such "The Lesson" stands out from the rut of the common garden variety of pictures, but it possesses an additional noteworthy feature in the fidelity with which it portrays small, town happenings as well as metropolitan life. Constance, the cute and cunning, is assisted in "The Lesson" by Tom Moore, and the combination furnishes fine entertainment. Supports are Gazette and a scenic of the West Coast of New Zealand.
