AMONG THE THEATERS

Chinatown, as it was some years
ago, with the big dance halls of the
Barbary Coast and the motley crews
from the fleets of the world anchor
ing in the Golden Gate, making the
most of their time on shore, is shown
in Mary Pickford's latest AIRCRAFT
picture, "Amarilly Of Clothes Line
Alley" which will be shown at the
Orpheum theatre beginning tonight.
The exterior scenes were filmed on
the streets of San Francisco and
scores of slant-eyed Mongolians added
atmosphere" to the picture.
"Amarilly of Clothes Line Alley
was adopted by Frances Marion from
the novel by Belle K Mandates, and
presents Americas Sweetheart" as a
product of the slums, who has some
amusing and exciting experiences.
Among her admirers are two favored
ones-a bartender and gilded society
youth. She meets the latter when he
gets knocked out in a brawl which
takes place while he is on Summing
tour.
Remember tonight, Friday and Sat-
urday at the Orpheum.

Cotton in Brazil.

A. L. Moreau Gottschalk, United
States consul general at Rio de jan
GIRO, is enthusiastic over the prospect
of a revival of the cotton growing in.
dustry of Brazil, according to the San
Francisco Argonaut. He. calls atten.
ton to the fact that the republic is the
original home of one of the parent cot.
tons of the world. Cotton thrives in
the country when skilfully cultivated,
but the industry has thus far been neg
lected for others more profitable. The
consul general advances a strong point
when he says that a by-product of the
cotton industry-cottonseed oil cake
would be a great help to the cotton
raisers.
