THE CALL IF THE NORTH" COMES ID
 RIALTO MONDAY

For two days, Monday and Tues day, Jack Holt, one of the most pop ular of all the male players, comes to the Rialto to present his first starring picture. "The Call of the North"
 This is a Paramount super-feature adapted from the novel by Stewart Edward White, and is a big, virile story of the frozen country, an ad- venture story of the most exciting type, interwoven by a romance par ticulariy appealing and highly en- crossing.
 Paramount has taken great pains with the first starring vehicle of the man who has been one of the best known leading men on the screen. The selection of the story was made On account of it's adaptability to Holt's style as well as the compelling nature of the theme, and the won derful material it offered for an ex- ceptional motion picture.
 The story has to do with the cus- tom of the harsh factors of the pow erfuI Hudson Bay companies, send ing those who dared the company by free trading" along La Longue Traverse"-the journey Of death | which meant nothing more or less ] than to send the victim out into the great frozen wastes of the north, with | l lection against either the beasts or | the elements-the result was certain death. It happens that Graham | Stewart incurs the displeasure of one i Galen Albret, the most cruel factor of the north.

NAzIMOVA IS STAR IN 'CAM|LE'' AT
 R|ALTO ON FRIDAY

Seldom indeed Is the motion picture lover offered a greater entertainment than that contained in the announce nsent that the Rialto has booked Met ro's classic, Camille" presenting Nazirnova, the incompatible, sup ported by Rudolph Valentino, for three day engagement, starting next Friday.
 The combination of the worlds greatest actress, the screens greatest lever, and the worlds greatest love story, is an irresistible one, and 1t is freely predicted that this engage rnentAwilI smash all recent records from the attendance standpoint.
 Nothing Nazimova has ever done for either the stage or the screen has offered her the limitless scope for her wonderful emotional art as does this immortal classic from the pen of Alexander Dumas.
 It has proven the greatest vehicle for such world-famed artists as Sarah Bernhardt, Eleanora Duse, Morris, Rejane, Modjeska, Laura Keene, Olga Nethersole and Ethel Rarrymore It has never lost it's pop rlarity despite the fact that it has been before the public longer perhaps than any other masterwork ever con- structed.
 It is a role that one must uncon- sciously associate with an artiste of the type of Nazimova-

name, "A Prince There Was" the management presented a clever ami nal circus with dog, pony, monkey and goat actors, and the animals were seconded by the addition of a two legged actor who clowned the pro- gram to the delight of the tots and incidentally their elders. The ponies were wonderfully trained and they gave a sparkling performance. illus trating to what extent the dumb brute may be trained bv kindness, for the little fellows seemed to thor oughly enjoy their part in the pro- gram.
 Perhaps the biggest hit of the anil nal show was the appearance of the trick mule, Jazz Bo." Like all of his namesakes, he was handy with his feet. and the invitation to the boys of the audience to come up and take a ride on his back found no stickers, for h. simply was not rideable. The monkeys, of course. held the spot, for there is something about an educated monk that is irresistible. Bulger' s Animal Circus is the first of the big things the Rialto is to announce for the rest of the season to come to that house. and the reception accorded the little dumb actor portends sue cess for Richards and Nace in their endeavor to add to the bill something besides just the picture program. It is not often that one sees as fine a vaudeville bill coupled with as fine a picture as "A Prince There Was" Usually the theater manager books in a cheaper picture with unknown stars or no stars at all. But the

is not accepted by the publishers. Refusal after refusal has brought her to the realization that she is a fail ure, and she tells her troubles to the prince" He must help her-that he knew-but the way. He finally hits on the scheme of posing as an assist ant magazine editor, and as such pur- chases the girls manuscripts.
 The writings begin to pile up with the pseudo-publisher, and the girl wonders that there are none of them printed. An explanation must be made her-that the prince" realizes and there's but one thing left to do buy the magazine. And it happens the magazine is the identical one which has refused to print the stor- ies. Deception as bold as that prac- ticed by the prince could not be kept up long without discovery. and dis covery comes, but with it the realiza- ton of mutual love, and the way for the happy climax is unfolded.
 Besides the Meighan picture. the Rialto is offering Bulger's comedy animal circus, with ponies, monkeys. dogs. goats and clowns. This is a treat for both the giddies and the grownups, and rounds out one of the most complete double programs yet offered locally.
 The management Is calling partic- ular attention to the screen time schedule printed elsewhere in this edition, laying especial stress on the fact that there will be no show be- tween the hours of 5 and z. the shows starting at 1 and 3 in the afternoon and and in the evening.

TROS. ME|GHAN IN PRINCE THERE VAS
 |S AT THE R|ALTO

The Rialto announces the closing today of the engagement of Thomas Meighan in Paramount's adaptation of George NJ. Cohan's famous stage success, "A Prince There Was.''
 Again has Paramount furnished the motion picture lover the happy combination of star and story in production ringing with romance and happiness. appealing in its human ness, thorough in it's artistry, and perfect in it's direction and technique
 George M. Cohan's "A Prince There Was" has always been considered one of the greatest plays the noted actor author ever produced. It was the reigning success on Broadway for month after month, and has since become one of the most popular plays in any repertoire.
 Its being adapted for the screen as vehicle for Thomas Meighan per petuates the happy story in a manner decidedly more comprehensive than was possible on the speaking stage, and forms a most admirable vehicle for the popular star.
 The story is one that through the l sheer strength of the romantic vein cannot but interest everyone. It tells of a girl who, reared in luxury, at the death of her father, found herself penniless and was forced to face the world in the cold and calculating bat l tie for existence.
 Inexperienced, unsophisticated, she was no match for conditions, an6
