THE PLAZA

With his "mile a minute line of talk and his witty remarks, Noodles Pagan still keeps the patrons of the Plaza theatre convulsed with laugh ter. Noodles appeared last evening in an entire change of act, It was certainly good move on the part Lf the Plaza management to retain Noodles for the last. three days for the Plaza was packed to capacity last evening shortly after the doors open ed. It seemed as though it would be impossible to get together bill to come up to the standard of the one produced the first three days of this week either in merit or in draw ing power, but where there's will, there's a. way and the crowds are the proof As a general all around fun maker Noodles Pagan could not be Eeaten and he gets his audience with Jim from the start. F. w. Peters and company present a screamingIy funny sketch entitled His Lucky Day. that made big hit with the audience last evening. There are five people in the cast and John Gordon in the role of the Rev. pr. Ninny caused roars of laughter by his exceptionally clever portrayal of the part. Parise render ed numerous operatic and rag-time se- lections on the accordeon that were h. gh1y appreciated and he was forced to respond to several >encores. A good accordeonist is always a welcome fig ure on any bill and Par1Se was certain 1y made to feel at home last evening with the reception he received. Lambs Manikens proved a very pleasing and interesting novelty to everyone in the large auduience The act consists of a miniature stage with a regular per- formance including singers, dancers ana acrobats and should be a big drawing card for the little ones es- pecia11y. GoIdie Moore, a charming singing comedienne with beautiful display of gowns was also on the bill. One of the most interesting and anus ing features of last evenings perform ance was the thrilling fox hunt in ''I1he Fatal Legacy a Kalem two reel drama The scenes are wonderfully realistic and kept the audience keyed up to the keenest pitch of excitement throughout.

EMPIRE THEATRE
FROM DUSK TO DAWN
 AT THE EMPIRE THEATRl

The contention that great men are always great actors-at least as far as motion picture action goes-seems to be carried out by the way CIar- ence iDarrow, the famous Chicago att torney, performed in front of the mo- tion picture camera without a re- hearsaI and without a word of instruc- tionS.
 Chose who have seen the photop1ay entitled From Dusk to Dawn which
 is now shown at the Empire theatre, declare that Darrow was unconsciously dramatic and therefore the more in teresting and convincing in his ac- tion. The great lawyers facial ex- pression was caught by the camera and it shows the intensity of feeling that the orator put into the speech he was making to those who sat in the jury box and to the spectators in the courtroom
 The power of DarroW's oratory is all SO registered on the faces of jurymen and others who were also totally un- instructed and untrained in register ing emotions The demonstration that comes at the announcement of the verdict of ''Not Guilty is spontaneous and natural therefore strong and dra- matic.

 It took twelve months to make the settings for the Temple scenes in From the Manager to the Cross" the motion pictures of the life of Christ which are being shown at the Lyric theatre this week The settings for the scenes which show Jesus in the Temple which took twelve months to make were used but twelve minutes by the KaIem Company when the pie ture camera was set working to make the films. These scenes-a4ene cost SIG, ,O0o.
 The settings for the Temple scenes were all made from drawings by the celebrated German architect, Herr Schick, who spent number of years in Jerusalem measuring the ruins and finally working out definite data from which the Temple was built Rev. Frederick Lynch, editor of the Christian World, widely read Con- gregationaI publication after seeing the pictures gave them fine testi- moniaI. He said:
 '"The moving pictures of the life or Christ are all right. They are far more to be approved of than many of the films shown today. In this case the end justifes the means, for the end is ir itself 1audable.''

HELP FOR RIVERS

Washington, Jan l. - Chairman
Sparkman will call a meeting of the
rivers and harbors committee immedi-
ately upon the resumption of the SEES

agreement for an early report on the
annual bill making appropriation for

not yet reached such a stage as to in
dictate what will be the size of the

members of the committee, it will
