SUNDAY AT THE PALACE.

Sunday night brings to the Palace a, double feature program with dra- mas, comedies and numerous others. One of the big features is Heads Win,' feature that you will like, and the other is the famous Japanese actor Sessue Hhyakawa in his latest, 'The Dragon Painter" Those who like beauty in pictures will find in The Dragon Painter probably the m ost exquisite photography ever thrown on the screen. Pictorialiy it is a master piece. Much of the action of the story is in the Hanake mountains in Japan. These were taken in the ia nous Yosemite valley, and in order to get the lovely cloud effects Director Worthington and his staff had to as- cend to a height of 14,O00 feet over- looking the valley, where they waited patiently for days to get just the right effects

Tonight this picture will be shown for the last time with tue remainder of the wcel1-end pro- sl;tm Ut Fox's theater. For the Sun day evening concert the management has secured two splendid specimens of screen art, the first picture fea turing J.. Warren Kerrigan in ''One Dollar Bid" This picture is another one of this favorite screen stars active productions, with the same power of attraction. and intense situa- tions that are characteristic of all he Kerrigan pictures. The second fea- ture picture has as it's star the very capable and charming Anita King and is called "One Against Many" It is d fine screen drama embodying all the virtues of an artistic screen drama, There will be comedy, News and travel reels with a special Sum day evening concert by FoN's orches- tra under the dire ction of Mr. Matlo- son. and an organ recital by, Miss Du- four. For tho first half of the coming week the latest William Fox $ spe- cial chem drama. "Should a Eus- band T'orgive?" viii De the feature pie turo. Hall, oom Boys comedy in two reels, Fox News and four acts of vaudeville will co mpetc the program. "Should a Husband IForgiNe?' from all reports is q picture extraordinary with a big horse race in the climax where the heroine, played by Miriam Cooper, rides the winning horse to victory Critics claim that this pro ductiol leaves "Checkers" in the background when it comes to thrill ing exciting hard punching gripping action. There are all the elements that a live picture should have: Love, youthful indiscretion, horse racing, fighting, all combined with a splen- did cast including Miriam Cooper, Mrs James k. Hackett, Percy Stand ing, Vincent Coleman and Charles Craig This production was directed by. R. A. Walsh. brother of tl,e famous George.
