Bessie Love and her company is back on the lot at Hollywood, Cal. after several weeks spent in filming eXteriors for her coming photoplay of lumber camp life '"The Little Boss" in the big woods of Northern Cali fornia. Most of these scenes were taken adjacent to Eureka, on vast timber tracts For additional eXter- iors the company went to Fresno, af- ter completing it's work at Eureka. Wallace Macdonald appears as Miss Loves leading man.
 What is said to be probably the longest Western street ever built for a picture play was recently construct ed at the American studios for use in "Six Feet Four in which WiIliam m Russell will be presented. It meas ures 3S0 feet in length and includes 32 buildings.
 Harold Lloyd, Bebe Daniels and 'tSnub' Pollard have completed "Si, Senor'' and this comedy is said to be the best Spanish travesty ever given to the screen. It fairly thrills with the spirit of chili-concarne and Is full of tomale tensity. Miss Daniels as the Mexican beauty is vi vaciously alluring and Harold Lloyd does some of his nimblest and most daring acrobatfcs.
 A startling reproduction of pop ular New. York midnight revue was staged at the Metro studios for scenes in connection with a May Allison pie ture Almost Married Over hun dred tables are on the ballroom floor and an artistic stairway curved it's way from the stage to the floor.

 WEST END.
 Cecil B. DeMille. director general of the Famous ,Players-Lasky Corpor- ation, and producer of For Better, For Worse" which is to be shown at the West End theatre tonight, is a stickler for fine acting, and he per sonally selects the cast used in each of his productions, often spending weeks on the work of casting alone.
 For Better, For worse," Is no ex- ception in this particular. All of the roles, from the leads down to the minor parts, are taken by actors of prominence and reputation, and a list of their names is sufficient assurance that the acting will be of the very highest quality.
 In the cast of For Better, For Worse" are Elliott Dexter. Gloria Swanson, Tom Forman, Theodore Roberts, Wanda Hawley, Jack. Holt and other capable screen players.
 Passing the Buck,'' a two-reel Big "V'' comedy scream, starring Larry Semon, will also be shown.

 Tho Bacchsnalian orgy which ush- CTS in the Chinese New Year in Chi natown Is a. scene which brings the blush of shame to the mild and lady like celebrations of New Yesr's Eve ] in an Eastern metropolis. The fan tastic Oriental settings and wild rev. elry of Chinatown's big night are gra phically shown in a realistic man. ner.
 Hayakawa is a stickler for 'tatmos phere'' in all his productions, no mat ter what the cost. The expense of this ono setting alone was enormous, while the number of people engaged ran into the hundreds.
 The Hula-Hu1a dancer who does her bit in this big scene Is one of the best-known stars in Honolulu and 8 personal friend of Hayalcawa- She brought her entire company, of dan- cers and her special orchestra to as sist in making this big scene vivid and those who see it will agree- that | 1t is the real thing.

courages the organizing Of rifle clubs
for the purpose of maintaining the
national board for promotion of rifle

Advantages to Members.
Reasons for maintaining a civilian
rifle club are many, as pointed out by
Secretary Jensen. Chief advantages
to the individual are:
The opportunity for rifle practice
under conditions most helpful to al
vancement in practical knowledge
and skill.
The chance to obtain a government
standard of skill and an Of
fetal award for qualification in any
or all of three grades.
Opportunity to win medals and
other trophies in club matches and
!. oheip win them in league matches
as a member of the club team.
The possibility of winning national
hnnors or aiding the club team to
do so.
The certainty OF acquiring better
skill as a game shot.
The stimulus Of having a manly
and patriotic vocation tt counter
balance the working-day vocation.
The pleasure Of regular association
and competition with other rifemen.
