 world laugh right on through Satur- ] day, not skipping any of the days in between.
 1 Nor is this going to be all the com I edy offered. Mack Sennett is being 1 drawn on to help fill out with the i laughter. Each day that there is a
 different Arbuckle comedy there will { be different Sennett farce, with bath 1 ing girls and everything. and that
 means every day this week.
 His Wedding Night is what Fatty will start the week with Monday. Then
 on Tuesday he will be seen in "Oh, Doctor" Wednesday At Coney Island'' 4 is the feature sThe Country Hero" i will be the offering Thursday. Out
 West" is the attraction Friday and
 "The Bell Boy" will be the last attrac-
 ton Saturday. The Mack Sennett fea-
 lures will all be of the same type
 which has made the name Sennett
 synonomous with laughs and plenty { of action.
 i Everybody knows Fatty Arbuckle and the six comedies chosen represent some of the best he has ever made { They are all filled with action from i start to finish. and Fatty is seen in a different role in each but in each ! role he is the same funmaker with 3 /; new twist to every scene. In his sup 1 port are this other two funny men ;, Al St John and Buster Keaton
 1 It is promised that there won't be a dull moment at the Colonial any day
 this week.

Griffith's $ presentation Of his lateS1 spectacle at the Trianon theatre will mark the linking of the worlds most famous cinema producer with the First National Exhibitors Circuit, which has contracted for the distribu- ton of a number of special attractions by D. w. Griffith.
 As the basic theme for his triumphal offering, Griffith has selected probably the most powerful theme the human mind could suggest. In vigorous mat ter-of fact way he takes up the ques- tion of the hereafter, whether there is a divine Providence that answers mothers prayers, and whether good people get their rewards and whether a meraed punishment overtakes the eail
 sThe fundamental thought of the en- tire production is the answer of the directing genius to the most bafflinS question of the ages, is There a Here after?" Mir Griffith has located the setting of his production among farm folk who are deprived of a son by the great war. The entire family has all but lost faith in God and humanity in general when oil is seen bubbling the sputtering out of the ground.
 This scene was taken in the famous La Brea asphalt fields of California. This is one of the few places in the

Rex Beach personally supervised the casting of The Silver Horde" and made a point of getting players for the picttne who coincided in type with the characters he visual izeo in writing the book.

world where rich. crude oil bubbles out
 of the ground.
 Communication with the dead will
 always be a fascinating conjecture, no
 matter how many fakers are exposed
 The possibilities of such communica
 ton are almost beyond imag agination,
 but D. W. Griffith has evolved a won
 derfully interesting story based on the
 possibility, which he has told in his
 latest motion picture production The Greatest Question"
 She didn't wear the croix de guerre and her name didn't find it's way to the newspapers; but hers was the golden courage of an unrewarded self sacrifice as great any hero! She was Just little girl, pathetic, tremulous little thing. People called
 her little Miss Yes'm." Her father
 was a peddler and when he died she and her poor mother drove alone in the peddlers wagon; just waiting, driving and waiting-until at last her mother answered the Great Call and this little girl was left alone in the world without money or friends until she found refuge with poverty strick- en farmers family.
 Thus is Lillian Gish introduced in D. w. Grffiths powerful production, his latest creation.
 With the typical touch of the genius,
 Griffith founds his gripping story of

Hector Sarno does some excellent work as tho Indian Constantine, as does Carl Ger ard in the strangely contrasting part of Alton Clyde, youth whose wealth serves him only to seize the. pleasures of life.

 Did Kindly Providence watch over this little girl? Were the prayers of a devoted mother answered when the call to arms took away the sole sup port of the family? Griffith answers these questions by going on record with an everlasting response to "The Greatest Question"
