at the beginning an atmosphere of
love, happiness and thorough content
ment, moves swiftly on to a prim and
menacing- development, shaped with a
thoroughness and ingenuity that
fairly grips the beholder. It is an
up-to-the-minute play, dealing with
matters of present day moment, and
though it has the large application of
its title and this thesis .. -effectually
dealt with, it is nevertheless a big,
commanding woman's play.
Unusual short subjects surround the
chief attraction, such as the Rialto
News, a laughable Lloyd comedy, and
with topics of the day. In addition
the Rialto Symphony Orchestra of
thirty pieces renders an excellent
overture, together with a violin solo,
"Bubbles," by Daniel Brceskin, conductor.
COLUaiBIA.
Although most of us are still try
ing to .find the secret, the Columbia
management claims to offer a real
suggestion as to how it is "Easy to
Make Money" in the presentation of
the feature film of that title starring
Bert L.ytellt which is to be shown
there for four days beginning today
As Jimmy Slocum, son of a wealthy
New Yorker, Lytcll. is seen in the
part of a speed demon of the smart
set and a champion spender of his
father's money. As the last moans
of causing him to settle down, Jimmy'
father" bets him $25.000, that he will
AMUSEMENTS
be arrested more than once within
the year. If Jimmy loses the bet he
agree.f to pay his father $1 0,000 and
agrees not to attempt to borrow the
money,- but will earn it. Jimmy is
immediately arrested for smashing up
a barroom. For this he succeeds in
getting a year's sentence in Jail. Dur
ing his stay there he makes some
peculiar ecquaintanccs. They come
into his life a, little later. Upon being
released he claims the wager and
starts out to prove to his father that
it is "Easy to Make Money." Pecu
liarly enough does he prove. H,- and
in the proving he wins a sweetheart
who becomes a business partner as
well as his wife.
