Finishing touches, are now being put on the inter.or of the building, which has already been oc cupied. The new building Is constructed of white brick, is 122x150 fret in size and two stories in height. On the first floor are tne offices of ihe company, show room, stock room, two garages, vulcanizing, battery and self-starting departments and ladies' rest room. The offices are at the corner of the build ing, with the entrance on Eleventh street, and having the show room In connection. Just to the north of the offices is the stock room, which is conveniently arranged. The garage entrance is on Eleventh street and the shop entrance on Front street. IMMENSE FLOOR SPACE.

Week's Attractions at the Theaters GREAT FILM DRAMA COMING TO PINNEY Based upon a theme ns old as the human race, but ever new in its vary ing phases, "Who's Your Neighbor?'' comes to the Pinney theater next Sat urday for an engagement of four days. This is the film drama that has creat ed a real sensation wherever it has been disclosed, and in Salt Lake, where it was shown for a wee.k recently, it created wide discussion and attracted audiences that crowded the theater at - 4*. Scene from the remarkable phot o-drama, "Who's Your Neighbor," at the Pinney next Saturday. e.veey showing. It depicts n condition fraught with vital significance to ev eryone, and in the most vivid anti en thralling manner. The story is told in adroit and forceful fashion, and concerns the earnest attempt of a wo man's society to break up the segre gated district In a large city. They are opposed by the district attorney, who strives vainly to convince them of the dire results that will inevitably follow the success of their efforts. However, the society wins, and a sit uation is developed by which the hap piness and lives of several innocent people are nearly wrecked. The man ner in which the characters become involved with one another provides a thrilling story, which has a complicat ed plot, yet easily folluwed, from which an entirely unexpected climax is evolved, with a happy ending. This remarkable photoplay Is from the gift od pen of Willard Mack, who is just now one of the conspicuous figures connected with the American drama. He is not only a virile and capable act or. but a distinguished playwright as well. His thorough knowledge of the world, and intimate perception of hu manity and life as it really is. give him singular advantage in the writing of plays. "Who's Your Neighbor?" is said to be quite the best of his efforts, with a thrill is every episode and in cident. During the engagement at the Pinney one performance will be given each afternoon at 2:30. and two at night at 7:30 and 9 o'clock. BIG DOUBLÉ" BILL AT THE MAJESTIC A giant double program opens at the Majestic theater today, in the pre sentation of "The Last Days of Pom peii," taken from Bulwer-Lyton's fa mous novel, and "The Ten of Dia monds." a powerful drama with the cast of "The Flame of the Yukon." "The Last Days of Pompeii" features one of the most spectacular chains of action seen in any feature for some time. It shows in vivid detail the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and the city of Pompeii being destroyed un der the stream of «molten lava and ashes. Hundreds of people are seen escaping panic-stricken through the tumbling walls and falling buildings as fire lays everything low in its wake. Another portion of the picture shows hundreds of the townspeople being thrown to the lions In the public arena | while others are being burned at the stake. "The Ten of Diamonds" is an un- : usually powerful photodramji, told in a j gripping manner. Lavish settings and * extravagant mountings are featured | throughout. "The Flame of the Yu kon" cast of performers give a won derful portrayal. Action is every- • where and the whole picture sums up ! as being refreshingly different. The Majestic management announce« i the forthcoming productions of "Her Greater Love," starring Theda Bara; "The Yankee Way," with George ' Walsh; "Come Through," with Doro- 1 thy Phillips; "Pay Me," "Nedrly Mar ried," taken from the stage successes' of the same name, and "Polly of the Circus," long familiar as one of the most successful Broadway attractions.* Model 18-3 Excelsior Motorcycle While they last at $295.00.

PAULINE FREDERICK AT STRAND TODAY A theme that will have a universal appeal is found in "Double-Crossed," a Paramount picture starring Pauline Frederick al the Strand theater to day. This is the fact that not one of m fig CEO R G E »direction w Coming to the Majestic soon in a WALSH ILLfAM FOX. nothsr big attraction. m us real ' y knows all about the persons nearest to us in daily life. For In stance, in "Double-Crossed." a devot - ed young wife learns for the first time [ j | i of a youthful slip on the part of her husband whom she adored and whom she had unconsciously placed upon a pedestal too high for any man. What happened when she found out his crime and how a new and deeper understand ing was brought about between them, is pictured by Miss Frederick with all the wondrous artistry'of which she is capable. The magnificent wardrobe for which Pauline Frederick was fanned on the stage and for which she has con tinued to be celebrated since she be came a star in Paramount pictures, is once again to grace Miss Frederick in "Double-Crossed." In this story Miss Frederick is the wife of a very wealth> broker and of course she overlooks nothing in dressing the part. BLUEBIRD PHOTOPLAY SHOWN AT THE ISIS Cast up by the sea, on a verdant island in mid-Pacific, a boatload of lourists faced privation in iheir fight to live. The hitherto gruff o«d mil lionaire turned out to he a kind hearted and self-sacrificing friend: the saintly and charitable philanthropist proved, at heart, to be a cowardly ami selfish wretch, while the flippant so ciety youth, who had tangoed and two- : stepped himself into a listless hold on life, was changed into a manly and resolute fighter in defense of the help less. Such were the fruits of chance : that exposed Ihe true inwardness of, men who had been false to thwmsclves all their lives. And on this foundation "The Show-Down." a Bluebird photo-| play of rare beauty and interest, has been built hv Lynn F. Reynolds for exhibition al the Isis theater on Sun day only, with Myrtle Gonzalez and George Hernandez playing the star pa rts. SOUTH BOISE.
