RICHMOND THEATRE
X . i ? j. * ?
What is a "climber?.'', The term
is almost exclusively u$ed in the so
cial set to designate a type of so
cial parasite who strives to break
inside the forbidden precincts of
the social circle. visualization of
such characters is given in Vita
graph's latest picture, .."The Climb
ers." Corinne Griffith is the star.
This production, which is adapted
from the stage, success of the same
name by Clyde Fitch, will be shown
at the Richmond Theatre tonight.
. Climbers-are seen to be persons i
tvho use all manners of ruses to
rcach recognition as wearers of the
social purple, but who for some in
definable reason cannot attain the
goal of their ambitions.
GRAND THEATRE
A clever idea for a code is ex
plained in the interesting Para
mount picture. "The Dummy," in
which Jack Pickford is starring at
the- Grand Theatre tonight.-Its' nov-_
elty lies in its simplicity," for tJie'
method is simply to have a set of
dictionaries (of course they, must
all be alike) and use the word
following or preceding the word
meant. The picture is quite satis
factory entertainment. Also 14th
Chapter ''Elmo the Mighty."
INC.OMAR THEATRE
''Her Purchase Price," at the In
gomar Theatre tonight, Bessie Bar
riscale's production for Robertson
Cole and distributed by /'Exhibitors
Mutual, is the most colorful picture
in which the blonde star-:has ever
appeared. " >
JMost of the action of the picture
takes place in Cairo, Egypt, and
thtt streets and interior sets used
are evidence that great care has
been taken to make them perfect in
Oriental atmosphere and detail.

Demonstration of
A demonstration that proves to you how easy it
is to be a good cook in the Duplex way, and what
little trouble it will be to you.
You simply need to start the things on your stove
?while heating the stones for the "fireless," then put
in your stones, and your vegetables or meats in the
Duplex Fireless Cooker, and go on your way rejoic
ing, attending to other matters of housekeeping. You
will find that everything will be perfectly done al
ways. never anything burned and there will be no
need for anything to get dried up or cold while wait
ing for the "late-comers" to the family dinner.
You save gas and coal by using the "fireless."
Come in tomorrow and see this cooker demon
strated.
