Columbia Theater

Allan Dwan. director of "Panthea," has indeed given a picture that might be termed a masterpiece. To those that saw it at the Columbia theater yesterday, it is pronounced as a suc- cess. and everybody was well pleased. It must be remembered that MT. Dwan was Mary Pickford's and Douglas Fairbanks director in all their big successes and now that he has taken Norma Talmadge, you can expect a picture out of the ordinary. The theater was so cool that the spectators could have worn their coats or wraps, and yet it was not uncomfortable at all.
 At the Lamara
 In speaking of cool houses, you will generally find that the first thing taken into consideration is the attraction the house is offering. The proof of this is the fact that the William Fox masterpiece in which the world famous Theda Bara is being starred, in Heart and Soul" at the Lamara played to a great crowd The nature of the picture was such as to make the heat small Consid- eration as the audience cheered and applauded, which also proved the at traction was great enough to over

 Arguments before Judge Stanford for dismissal waxed hot when Coun- ty Attorney Laney contended that out of courtesy to the plaintiffs at torney, the information had not been filed within thirty days. He stated that he would not attempt to show good cause, because there might be a possibility of technical error. In resenting the insinuation of the county attorney. Mir. Trimmer man demanded that his letter be read In it he asked that Mrs. Butts be not arraigned until he arrived in Phoenix.

At the Majestic

The Majestic theater has been showered with requests for the pre- sentation of Hell Morgan's Girl" and has booked that premier attrac- tion for 9 two-day showing, starting today
 Fon dramatic power and intensity no production filmed this year can surpass this great feature. The ac tiOn is set ill the most noted and in teresting spot on the western shores of the continent-the far famed and notorious BarDary Coast-the heart of San Francisco's underworld.
 No exaggerated characters or scenes mar the drama. It is a depletion of the primitive passions and greed of power-the brute force of the mdi- vidual swaying opposed to intellect. and the odds in favor of brute force
 The vigor of Jack London's writings make a fitting basis of comparison with Hell Morgan's Girl' and were he the author, it would add to his

Lionel Barrymore at the Hip


 If one is looking for novelty in the plot of ones movie dish, here it is, found in "A Millionaire's Double" playing today and tomorrow at the Hip.
 Ride Bennington. young American millionaire, awakes to find that his wife has eloped with another man. He has an encounter with a burglar and the thief makes off with Bide's overcoat which contains papers that later identify the crook who has been drowned as the real Bide The papers carry the suicide, as it looks, of the young clubman on account of his wife's perfidy and then commences one of the fastest and best worked out plots to be offered by the Metro people this year. Lionel Barrymore as Bide Bennington plays his own double and from there on it would be little short of a crime to tell the plot that helps establish this picture as the best comedy young Barrymore has ever made in his career before the camera. It is rich in humor, full of action, has plenty of pep and plenty of plot and counter plot. It is said to be ideal entertainment ana with The Great Secret" at the Hip, should make up a good warm weather bill.

 Two regiments fresh from the front paraded Petrograd Saturday, and the newspapers say damobllization is pro- ceeding rapidly, though in disordered fashion. In many cases companies have been reduced to the strength of 25 10 30 men by gradual departures of soldiers who demobilized themselves.
 The railway situation, notwithstand- ing the brave front of the trades un- Ions. is precarious everywhere. Many strikes arc threatened owing to the non-arrival of funds for the payment of wages.
 The serious fuel question in Petro- grad has now been complicated by strikes of employees in the fuel depart ment, who refuse to work under the Bolsheviki commissaries. A similar cause has been responsible for a strike of the employees in the Petrograd city hall, who quit work on the appearance pf the new Bolsheviki mayor who for merly was a day laborer.
 The Russian church, which was one of the most powerful institutions un- der the old regime, now has attention at the hands of the Bolsheviki, which has directed the confiscation of all church property. lands, money, gold, silver and precious stones, and the abolition of all privileges of the clergy.

 JOIN MARINE CORPS

Glenn Metcalf. Phoenix boy, will leave tonight for San Francisco to en- fer the marine corps. His case de- serves special mention for he is a boy who if given the opportunity will rise still higher. He came to Phoenix sev- eral years ago. Friendless and alone, he kept his head above water by doing whatever a boy could find to do. He was all the time looking for an oppor- tunity and it was offered to him by Dr. and Mrs. Garland B. Couch. They took him into their home and gave him chance to educate himself. He did even moro than that. He obtained such a place in the Couch household as many boys never reach in the homes of their parents. He became a son to them.
 Last year he was graduated from the high school, where he made his mark in various ways. He became manager of the High School Annual and cap tain of the cadets. Very early in the war he desired to take part in it, though only 19 years of age. Finally he enlisted in the marine corps.

 The monitor was only the first of a series. Others with lighter guns and lighter draft were lying in reserve ready at moments notice to slip through the winding channels to some point nearer to the enemy and from there to direct an unexpected fire on his positions.

 Later the press boat again ploughed through seemingly endless mazes of canals, meeting with monitors and new and cunningly located batteries which. as the afternoon approached, began to get into activity especially against air planes that were circling about: The canals and lagoons were resounding with the explosions of shells of all calibres as the correspondents boat steamed off to the huge shore batteries that gave the final touch to the de- lenses of Venice. The guns here made even those on the biggest monitors look like playthings.
