MOORES RIALTO
1T A0EA~S TLAI
Connecticut Yankee"

"a coNNEcT1cUT YANKEE in
King Arthur's Court" William
Fox's spectacular comedy drama
screen translation Of Mark Twain's
greatest comic romance. has made
such q favorable impression upon
Washington and resulted in such a
tremendous demand for seats that
the management Of Moore's Rialto
theater announces q continuation Of
the engagement for another week
beginning today, having found 1t
impossible to accommodate all those
desiring admission regardless Of the
formal opening Of the new mezza~
nine tiep Of boxes and the added seat
ing capacity obtained thereby.
Mark Twain was one Of Americas
greatest literary gsniuses and the
story depicted in the current offer
ing IL one Of his masterpieces. The
author teaches while he tickles. You
learn while you laugh. He has taken
history as a framework, and upon
It has built a roaring comedy.
To him history books are a great
Joke, they see truth through a veil
Of centuries. the years having I'LL
tered fact and left hgend- Mark
Twain strips away the veil and the
result il a scintillatinS satire that in
book or picture form is hard to
equal.
King Arthur Of the Round Table
was no giant. He was man with
a mans weakness. He believed In
witchcraft, and the great magician
Merlin, an ordinary sonJurer who
would be ridiculed today. was able
to give the King tbs shivers by
means Of the simplest little tricks.
The plumbing In King Arthurs
Court was awful, the place was sadly
in need. too, Of a telephone service.
II took a Connecticut Yankee to
put things to right. The Yankee.
Martin Cavendish, even proved that
tho much vaunted knights Of The
Round Table could not fight. With
one revolver, one horse and one we'll
coiled rope, he licked the whole tin
suited outfit.
Not all the action in this tale takes
place in the Middle Ages. There is
a pretty modern romance, and this
romance, by a stroke Of Twain's
genius, is woven into the Yank's
medieval adventures.
For the rest, all one has to do Is
run their eyes over the cast and
they are practically assured OF worth
while entertainment. Harry G. My
ers, Pauline Starke, Charles Clary,
Rosemary Theby. William v. Mong,
George Siegmann, and others Just as
popular make up a company for
which the term "allstar" is per-
fectly correct.

April Billiards

Some newcomers to Colorado will doubtless be i'm
pressed with the idea that last weeks blizzard was
quite exceptional but that idea is far from the truth
Heavy SHOWS in April quite common in this state,
and there many records of much storms than
that which blocked the highways and stopped the rail
road trains last Friday and Saturday.
So well is this weather risk understood that those
who suffer from such storms likely to be those un
acquainted with Colorado conditions. Surely no one
who has learned how quickly April sunshine can be
changed into furious with heavy snow driven
by raging north wind would take the risks that were
taken by many automobile parties last week.
Another thing that is well understood by Colorado
residents is that these April storms beneficial in
the highest degree to the farmers and the stock raisers
Upon them and the following showers in May depend
in large measure the crops Of the following summer

July showers, however abundant too late to give

As for the damage to the fruit that is commonly
exaggerated, and if the loss shorld be almost

There is difference of opinion among naval -ex-
perts to whether the fighting ships of the navy
should be held together grand fleet whether
they should be separated and stationed 'Where they
will do the most good,' to congressman and others
selfshly interested The fleet navy has the unan-
nous support of both naval theory and naval expert
ence, while the separate fleets enthusiastically
