In "Joan the "Woman." the big fea
tare now being presented at the
THftatfir npralliinft V3.TT3.T IS
^ seen at the best advantage in which
f-vsho. has yet appeared on the screen.
The scenario, arranged by Jennie
ft: MacPberson. eoaects the events ol
? Rheims and Orleans -with the travail
through which France is going today.
a prologue shows an English trench
"somewhere In France." A volunteer
I is asked to blow up a certain German
" trench. A young English officer steps
forward. The\commander tells hint
that he will not be needed until mid'
night, to think it over until then, because'the
man who goes on this mission
will not return. ,
The young officer is then shown
ifighting a battle within his own soul,
f To go or not to go? While doing so
vision of Joan of Arc appears to
*- him and tells him that he must make
I "the sacrifice in explanation of what
f he did to her nearly 500 years before.
' The scene of the battle in which
Joan, leading the revivified and in/
spired army of France, defeats tit:
7 . English and raises the siege of Or:;_
leans is one of the most magnificent
? things of the kind yet accomplished
. on the screen.

markable heights of motion picture
realism.

- stives. The prices at which this orI
ganizatlon will produce a series ol
, ?. musical comedies throughout the enr
"gagement are all out of plumb wi<
the bigness and goodness of the at'
traction. One must think of it
the $1.50 class and then go there
-pecting to get a good money's wor.
' Ana there will be no disappointments,
f if yesterday's presentation of "A
Chinatown Romance" Is the standard
by which we are to judge the others.
The splendid ability displayed by the
principals and large chorus assure a
satisfactory rendition of anr musical
comedy selection that Manager March
might make. Some may not like one
play as well as another, but it is ccr^tain
they will like the players when
*they are cast with such good Judgment

and character types were fault-rtessly

It is regrettable that the selection
' for the introduction of Mersereau's
Submarine Girls at the Hippodrome
' yesterday contained a number of
' comedy bits that have been repeatedi
ly offered to Hippodrome audiences,
and some or them quite recently, as!
it detracted some from the entertain-!
: Ing quality of the show. This company
has Just-entered this territory after
i a successful tour of the Pacific coast
1 and western cities, and it was due
j largely to this fact that this happened.
1 j Offsetting this handicap, however, the
ability of the players shone brilliant;
ly through the maze of familiar bits.
The opening number, aided by splen:
did light effects, smacked Tery much
of a real production. The singing and ;
dancing of the chorus was ail that j
' one desired and the singing special- i
tics introduced by various members
of the company were likewise perfect-1
ly satisfactory, to the three audiences {
which greeted the company's initial:
p.? - . . .-u
( HOW IU r airxuum acacuII.
Eddie D; cr. in Hebrew character,}
. sings new numbers and does it well, j
. Lew Kellner. a nifty stepper proved
( a pleasing feature; the Paramount!
, quartette was a sure-enough hit. and
the two Mersereans acquitted them,
selves splendidly in vocal numbers.
Mr. Merserean has a particularly
: pleasing voice and the choice of numbers
were mostly new. and all highly
enjoyed.
Billy Finnegan is a rollicking Iriahi
man who is naturally funny and his
part in the show may well be classed
i among the good points.
Tomorrow there will be a new bill.
.. and it will be different, so that we
. will then' see and hear a splendid
! company in a bill that will win tin,
iversal approval. The screen offering
today is 'Fatty" Arbuckle in "Rough
| House." Undeniably it is the fun,
niest of the Arbuckle's yet produced.
, surpassing in the minds of those who
like action and pretty girls, even his
. ' famous "Butcher Boy" creation.
; "The Lost Express" enters upon its
i fourth chapter tomorrow.
J Nelson Repeats Caprice Picture
"The Heart of Romance," the Wil
liam Fox production which proved
highly entertaining to Xelson audiences
yesterday will be repeated there
today. Miss Caprice appears in a dif'
fertnt character role in this latest
picture?wideiy different from the
' parts in which local patrons have
' been accustomed to seeing her.

this purpose. j ]
Pine cough syrups are combina-! ;

buy it? You can easily make it your-! j

To make the best pine cough rem- j |
edy that money can buy, put 2 1-J (
ounces of Pinex (flit cents worth) iu |'
a pint bottle, and fill up with home- j1
