Chaplin's ottering is being neti
d jfor the first time ziw-e it played

M-vt-ral months ago. It fs a typical
I'hBplin comedy, the story dealing
Hitli t'tiarlie and his family on a
lay's pleasure in a Ford rar that
shimmies.-' If you have never seen
Chaplin in this picture you will get
women laughs to fill a book.
Dorothv Dalton in "Hard Boiled"
!s at home in a part that many say
Has Just made to fit her. She plays
iha part of a girl who has the repu-.
tat Ion of being "hard boiled" and to
5v up to her name she plays the
lame.
Th two pictures continue for to

Riverside
At the opening of the season Riv
irside drew attention from damie
k'vers because of the excellence of
the dance orchestra. Devotees ' of
aancine were delighted to find that
he management had provided one
f the best orchestras In the state.
In fact, many have pronounced it the
best.
Now comes the added "big iioise"
lit Riverside. "The Slide," the big,
new daredevil slide. It's the talk of
the whole Valley. . It is so fast that
the bather going down leaves the
slide for more than a dozen feet
right after the descent begins and
does not touch again until he or she
is flyingr through the spate half way
Son. It is the biggest addition that
th park has been able to put in for
everal seasons, and Will be the at
traction for the next few weeks when
the management has something else
to 'spring as a surprise.
The bijf pool is an attraction also
these, days and will soon be the mec
ta for those who drop down after
Rortwto "take off" In the "drink."
Iverside this year is the best it
ha ever been and will go on adding
lojts attractions until there will be
no 'other spot in Arizona that can
"vifc.to compete with it.

Quantity and class both distinguish
the ball at the Strand. Ethel Clayton
is seen in a smashing dramatic story
entitled "The Irice of Possession,"
and Katty Arbuckle cornea along with
his Bid-splitting "Garage" and helps
to make the ottering the biggest pro
gram that the Strand has seen fit to
put on for months.
Ordinarily any management would
be content to offer Mis I'layton
alone in har picture, "The Price of
Possession,' because it is a special
Paramount feature. But the fact that
Rickards and Nace have a number of
pictures on hand because of the late
opening of the Rialto theater com
pels them to double tip and use two
features instead of one.
t Miss Clayton's picture show her in
a role distinguished by the fact that
she has never been seen in one like it
in her long career on the silver sheet.
She plays the part of a woman whose
family creed was "Keep what you get
and Ood help those who try to take
It." All herlllfe she had wanted a
home, children and-contentment. All
her life until her worthless husband
dies she had had abuse, Thenshe
became mistress of a magnifKent
mansion and had her every wish
gratified. Then came the rightful
owner and tried to take It from her.

by an all-star cast and the photog- I
raphy is unusually good.
Another feature of the program for j
