"Proxiesv at the Strand.

The two days engagement is an- nounced by the Strand of Para mounts presentation of "Proxies'- one of the fastest and most thrilling romantic love stories seen locally for sometime
 ''Proxies,'' it will be remembered. enjoyed a most phenomenal run ct the California theatre in Los Ange- les recently, the faEs in the coast town voting it one of the most clever constructed mystery stories to reach the screen in many months. Its ac- tfon defies a solution at the hands Of the audience. Up to the very snal scene. the ending is in doubt-no one can foretell the next scene at any time, and this phase makes Proxies, utterly frristible. The story deals entertainingly and fas- cinatingly with a reformed crook who is determined to go straight, and ot his struggling against obstacles ot every nature which were thrown in his way. The idea of the story is unique and novel-somethfng way out Of the ordinary in mystery tales and as love story, it would be ex tremely hard to beat. Geo. D. Baker who directed "Heliotrope" last sea-
 son. produced Proxies from tho story By Frank R. Adams. Zeens Keefe and Norman Kerry enact the i leading roles, and are supported bS | such players as Paul Everton. Will liam H. Tooker, Robert Broderick

HThe Hell piooersr-Rialto.


 Today is the final day of the en- gagement at the Rialto of Wallace Reid, appearing in his Paramount success, '"The Hell Diggers." This exceptional adventure story presents Reid in his biggest outdoor story for several months-in fact by many critics it is agreed that he has had 60 picture since "The Valley of the Giants" that offered him as viriie a characterization as the role of the engineer in this story of the Golc dredge of northern California. Ac- ton runs rampant throughout the entire feature-woven against TO- mantle background, appealing and human and thoroughly delightful. The story of ''The Hell DSgers" IS one of company whose mining in terests incorporate the use of the large dredges. known to the farmers as nell diggers." The machines have ruined the entire country for agricul- tural purposes, and the war between the farmers and the mining concern IS constant and bitter, with young engineer in charge of the dredges leading the forces of the mining men, It Is when he meets and falls in love with the daughter of the leader Of the farmers that his attitude toward ms concern changes. and he sees the grave injustice being done the az riculturalists. Hsi turning on his concern. taking up the gauntlet of the farmers, and the stirring action incident thereto are factors which give the story it's instant appeal as an adventure love story of the high est merit. The International News and comedy-"A Seaside Siren" are | the added attractions. Tomorrow brings Charlie Chaplin to the Rialto ] to present his latest comedy-his first picture since ''The Kid'-"The Idle Class"

CHARLIE CHAPLIN IN THE IDLE GLASS"
 R|ALTO SATURDAY

Tomorrow morning at II o'clock there will be ushered in at the Rialto anothe rmotion picture engagement which will establish new local att tendance records.
 Charlie Chaplin is the star, his ve- hicle being The Idle Glass; his very latest picture, and the first one he has made since "The Kid" The Idle Class is new idea entirely in com edy. It presents Charlie Chaplin in the dual characterization of a tramp and a man of wealth-double expo sure playing a most important part in the fun created by the comedy. Chaplin wrote and directed the story himself, the action being entirely novel and positively away from any thing he has ever before done. As the tramp he is a golf enthusiast, as the man of affairs an absent minded husband, and the Intervening of
 these two characters has resulted in a comedy that for side splitting action and the very limit in fun nak- ing situations surpasses anything Charlie Chaplin has yet offered in his long career as the leading comedian on either the stage or screen
 'sThe Idle Class" will be presented without advance in prices, and tho
 management is calling attention tc i the early opening of the theater, urg- l ing attendance wherever possible during the matinee screenings. To- l morrow is the day and all Phoent, will again be on hand to pay tribute 1 to the king of laughter-gloom chaser l par excellence-the funniest man il l the world.

 T Elsinore Spencer, the petite SOIL brette of the Spencer forces, is an attraction in herself. Her gowns are of the kind that feminine theater pa irons admire; her singing and danc- ing possesses a freshness and vivacity that pleases and her beauty of face and form of the kind that is good to look at. Manager Spencer announces that his soubrette will be seen in the near future in a number of comedies especially selected. which will enable him to feature this popular member of the musical comedy stock.
 Four new members have been added to the roster of the Spencer com pany, Bella Celia. Bobby Mack, Hazel Chene and Pat Patterson, making the company the largest stock aggrega- tion ever seen in Phoenix, and each and every member will be seen in leading roles as fast as the manage ment can secure the proper plays from New York.
