The Crest Pier Theatre will also

the most comfortable theatre seats on
the island. A plaster screen and two
new Simplex machines insure perfect

OF course the villain dies suddenly and
the hero and heroine live happily ever

at Bakers. Tuesday at the Casino
was double feature day. The two at
fractions were Fatty Arbuckle in 1.-THE
Dollar-a-Year-Man," and a Goldwyn
production of Arnold Benefits stage
success, "Milestones." The Arbuckle
picture is about a fat laundryman who
belongs to a very select yacht club.

country visits the club the other mem

man is going to disgrace them, but he
rescues the prince from a band of Boil

honor at the banquet. "Milestones" is
about the love affair of three genera

gambler changes clothes with him and
takes his place. When the priest
awakes he doesn't know anything. In
his youth the gambler had been edu-
for the priesthood, SO it was easy
for him to play the part of the parish
priest. Constant association with the
good things of life change his out
look, and when the real murderer is
he (the gambler) confesses
MS imposition, and starts over again.
