Victor Moore in Chimn,ie Fadden at
 the Arizona Today

Americas foremost comedian Victor Moore will be seen at the Arizona to- night in E. w. Townsend's clever crea- ton, "Chimmie Fadden," when he was on the staff of the New York Sun.
 Victor Moore as "Chimmie' is a product of the lower East Side or, if you wish it, the bowery. Townsend's s reportorial experiences well qualified him to act as the recorder and des- cribes of Chimmie and of the circle he moved in.
 MT. Moore will be remembered in "Snobs" which picture caused his can cellation of contract at the Keith thea = ter at Washington. D. C.. owing to it's drawing power when he was playing in the opposition house on the speaking sta Ge.
 "Chimmie" Fadden is said to be one of the best pictures the Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play Co.,. have ever released on the Paramount Program.

'"The Great Question" It is a story of New York society life-a story of a mar, the eve of marriage, when he burns all evidence of former love af- fairs and prepares for new existence.
 MT. Lockwood does well in his part and he is a great actor making the most of every dramatic scene. Miss Allison and the balance of the cast are equal to every part and "The Great Question:" is well worth seeing To- morrow the Lion will present Roscoe Arbuckle in probably the most laugh able comedy in which he has appeared "Fatty's Tintype Tangle."
