Will Rogers Passes St. Peter

Will Rogers, whose boast it is
that he is the only man in motion
pictures who doesn't own dress
suit, was invited to speak at the re-
cent meeting of the Actors Equity.
at the Ambassador hotel, in Los
Angeles. He spoke--but. he told his
audience. it was only by the greatest
good luck that he managed it.
In the first place. he said, he came
near not getting there in time be-
cause he had to walk half the way
from the studios at Culver City
there were so many cars parked
ahead of his. When he finally ar
rived at the hotel he had difficulty
convincing the doorman he belonged
there--if he hadn't happened to have
his invitation with him, he would
never have been admitted.

Rialto-"The Dollar-a-Ye Man"
and SIS Life Worth Liyinr2"

Roscoe Fatty) Arbuckle takes
the scream from movie fans the first
four days of this week at the Rialto
theater in his latest knockout vehicle,
"The Dollar Year Man."
The story is written around the
familiar amateur detective who was
so conspicuous during the late war.
1t deals with the adventures Of a
former dollar a year man." Roscoe
Arbuckle, as Franklin Pinney, doesn't
win the hero's medals, however, until
he has had many langhable adven-
lures and which make this picture
one of the funniest in which he has
been seen.
Eugene O'Brien in Is Life Worth
Living?" is the feature attraction at
the Rialto theater for three days
beginning Thursday.
In his new play, the star appears
as a chap who has barely avoided
going to prison on false charge
of theft and feels that, although he
has been acquitted in court a damn
ing stigma has been left on his name,
and that many of the avenues to
earning an honest living had been
forever closed to him.
The result of his efforts to re-
establish himself in the social and
business world are so discouraging
that, in desperation, he plans his own
destruction. Then there bobs up a
number of interesting reasons why
the carrying out of his plans should
be delayed, chief among them an
unfortunate young miss who instant
ly arouses in him protecting in
stinct.

n--"Don't Neglect Your Wife"
Cast Of Character

Gertrude Atherton's famous story,
Don't Neglect Your WIFE," is the
chief cinema attraction at the Sun
theater this week. Mabel Julienne
Scott, former Omaha woman, has
the leading role. -
Don't Neglect Your Wife" tells
the story of a mans man" who
thought more of his club life and
of his profession than of his duty
70 his young bride. The picture
opens in the aristocratic social cir
Gle OF old San Francisco.
DR.. Howard Talbot thought his
bride had too much education and
feared reading would spoil her looks.
- ne spent most of his time at his
clubs, Madeline, left to her own re-
sources, fell into an innocent friend
ship with a brilliant young news
paper man, Langdon Masters, who
lived at the same residen, hotel.
The inevitable happened-they fell
in love with each other. Wien they
had discovered and ackl owledged
their love, they decided they must
avoid each other in the future.
But in the meantime, gossip had
been busy weaving her shiny net
about their friendship and the hus-
band had been made aware of his
wife's liking for young Masters
society at Just the time they had
discovered their love and decided
they must repress it.
Awake at last to his neglect, DIR.
Talbot blames himself. When they
acknowledge the truth of his ac-
cusations, he believes he can yet
save his wife and orders Masters not
only never to see Madeline again, but
to leave San Francisco forever.
Despite their protests at this death
blow to Masters promising career,
DR.. Talbot insists and Masters
leaves.
Months later, Madeline learns that
Masters is drinking himself to death
in New York's lowest dives, and de-
:ides that as long as she can't join
her life with his, she will at least link
her fate with his: she takes to drink.
She is deaf to her husbands pleas
and finally runs away from him. He
then divorces her and she az once
seeks out Masters in his degradation
and with the aid of the mutual friend
who has kept her informed about
him, rescues Masters and brings him
back to a normal life. Happiness
and prospect of long and useful life
together make up for the blackness
# despair in which they had lived
long. {,
