Moore's Rialto Theater is showing
Charlie Chaplins latest film comedy
"A Days Pleasure which is not "a
Days Pleasure for the film star and
his family. but goes far toward af-
fording laughable hour of pleasure
for the patrons of the theater. Other
attractive features include "'rhe Eter-
nal Triangle" a photodra in which
no human being appears. but which is
played by dogs.
The pleasure trip starts off with
the star and his picture wife and two
call children leaving homo in Il
Ford. The trials and tribulations en-
countered on the trip to the steam
boat wharf for an excursion afford
the amusement. The trip on the
water, when practically all on board
become seasick, and the return home
keep the audience in a continuous
roar of laughter.
Instead of the Rialto orcheStra, the
kaminskies Jazz Band supplies the
music for the dancing on the excur-
sion steamer, and it is a pronounced
feature.

But cafes and bars are not the

Love has also gone to war. The
little city is filled with pretty girls
who find that the khaki uniform
sets off extremely well the young
vigor of the American soldier
Some Of these girls are absolutely
devoidDof restraining virtue; but
those are not the ones the boys
prefer. Commerce and love ap.
pear to them hardly compatible
For most of these young men
have a good deal Of sentiment in
their makeup and often show a
purity Of morals that would make
us Frenchmen smile. They wish
to love, and generally with the
idea Of marrying. Then they pay
their court quietly and earnestly,
with no brusqueness, and it is a
charming sight to see these big
boys, foreigners, in the French
family of their fiancee. There is
not much talking because they
hardly understand each other, but
they get on all the same. Jimmy
stammers a few words of French
Henriette speaks very brokenly a
few Of English. That is enough
for them to express the inexpres-
sible.
Another Of the attractions of
the man on leave is the visit to the
proteges, children of the devastat-

by the American soldiers, They
call the children their mascots and
are sure that they bring them
