It discusses clearly and accu rately the caues of discontent, and of fers the remedy. It has been produced with the idea of he-ns kept strictly in modern environment. It is a veritable fashion show, so sorpeous are th powns and wardrobe worn not only by Gloria Swanson arc! Bebe Daniels, but by the lesser members of the cast. Thomas Meighan essays the leading role, and it goes without sayins that he brings to the interpretation tlv same artistic development that has been apparent in his every picture. For the comedy Mack Pennett has supplied "The GVncham Girl." while the Pathe News with its scenes of local hunters on a recent white wrap shoot balances the program. The Strand symphony, under the direction of H. I. Adams, is provinp a distinct hit and will be. retained as a feature through out the season. Columbia "The Valley of Doubt," a Willard Mack story of the Canadian winter woods, is conceded to be one of the best stories of its kind ever filmed by the enthusiastic Phoenicians who have witnesser it at the Columbia theater, where it is playing today for the final showings.

To the public of Phoenix, this announcement means an evening of penuine fun. to say nothing of the pratification at winning the genuine diamond set in a sold gold mountng which the management hangs up on each of these nights as the prize. No conditions of any nature attach to the offer it is simply a matter of some lady winning the ring vn each diamond ring nipht. The plan is to pass out numbered slips to the ladies entering the ballroom on the lt:30 dance. Im mediately after the dance, the drawing is held, and the lady holding the win ning number is immeulately awarded the prize. Tomorrow night as well as Thurs day night also will be diamond ring night, while Friday night continues as Balloon Night, another innovation that causes a great deal of fun. The pool with its abundance of fresh, heated water is always clean and strictly san itary, and with the concessions and re freshment booths open all day and eve ning a general good time is promised every day at Riverside park. Rarrona Douglas Fairbanks imishes his en gagement at the Ramona today, where he is appearing in his Paramount Artcraft success, "Arizona." Fairbanks interprets the role of Lieut. Denton, a young officer in the IT. S. cavalry at the times wnen the soldiers policed the plains. In tne same troup there is a captain, responsible for the downfall of the daughter of the ser geant of the troop, and even at that moment seeking the disgrace of the wife of the colonel. Denton interrupts the scheme, and loving his colonel as a boy -would his father, assumes the responsibility for a supposed theft to shield the wife and to incidentally throw the colonel iff the track as to the real state of affair. As time goes on, Denton becomes manager of a ranch, and later he and the captain meet. It Is at this meeting that the climax of the story may be foretold, though the ending may never be surmised until the rlnal fadeout of the picture. It is a virile story of the big outdoors, and with Douglas Fair banks in the leading role, it is a really guaranteed attraction. The Hip Finishing its engagement today. Cecil B.

The store will be open for inspection today and the public is cor dially invited. FOR SQL Mill Harding and Coolidge will receive a landslide of votes in Arizona, is the prediction of Judge Albert M.
