JANE NOyAK STAR AT RIALTO IN "kAZAN"

One of Oliver Curwoods virlie, throbbing tales of the north, "kazan, is the Rialto attraction this week. ic Is one of the authors most exciting attempts and is produced in way that supplies thrills one upon the other throughout the picture. Also with a very spirited tale of the TO- nance and love of a man and girl of the north there is run the romance of Kazan, the dog wolf, who only learns to love one human being, the girl, and is constantly coming to her rescue.
 In this latest Curwood production 1t would seem that no effort has been spared to attain the beloved atmos- phere of the gray land of ice and snow There are the snowstorms the blizzards and the huge piles of snow about the little cabins hidden away at intervals in the great blanket or the north. More than the usual mum Der of dogs are used, in fact. sew eral packs, who take part in race for life that forms a part of the in- terest of the story. Therace Is against a bowling pack of wolves, also brought into the story. Beside the wolves there are other wild and dan gerous animals, all of which are wound cleveriy into the general theme.

attached has space for the refund which will be paid by the treasurer as thre celebration is over immediate ly upon presentation of the certifi- cate at the bank.
 Already enough money has been subscribed to insure a substantial re- fund to every contributor and Chair man Ramsay expects that when all the small contributions come in and when the other s1,000 donations are received. he will have enough to in- sure refund of 50 per cent. This will all be in addition to the income from the exposition which is expect ed to be more than the total expenses of the celebration which would then insure that everyone was given back all they gave.
 "We do not want anyone to get the idea that because we have re- ported more than $s0,o00 collected and have asured the people that he will not spend over that amount that We do not desire further contribu- tions,' said Mir. Ramsay. As matter fact we are especially anxious to have all the people represented in this affair and even though they are assured of receiving a part of their money back now their contribu- tions will be just as much appre- ciated as the first donors who took a chance on receiving no refund.
 Every man who has the interest of Birmingham and Alabama at heart owes it to himself to do his full share in this matter just as 1t no money had been collected. Just be- cause others have come forward with the full amount to be raised should be a double incentive to him to come in and do his share and thereby divide the burden more equally. The first donors are in the position of having guaranteed the total expense but that does not mean that they do not desire and expect all other patriotic citizens to assist in financing the celebration The early contributors have merely made it pos ible for the committee to make its contracts wit hthe assurance that the money would be available to meet the expenses"

1.-THE G0LEM" AT GALAX IS
 A WONDERFUL PICTURE

What is conceded to be one of the most, perhaps the most strangly in teresting pieces of motion picture production to ever reach the screen is The Golem,' now showing at the Galax. To the careless amusement seeker. perchance, the picture means very little but to any who seek to interpet the evident deep meaning that lies behind the wierd story 1t will be found to be a mine of valu- able truth. In short "The Golem" is a strange combination, owing to the smooth running of the wierd tale of the great Golem it runs on the surface like a facinating fairy tale that the smallest child could enjoy, with the depth of truth mentioned for the interpretative mind shown unexplained.
 First the story. "The Golem" is tale of the days of persecution of the Jews under Rudolph of Germany. Rudolph and his effer1inate court while feasting send word to the Jews that they are to leave the Ghetto, the place they are allowed to call home A great Rabbi has learned secret of putting life into big stone figure, called the Golem, and to win permission for his people to be allowed to stay in the Ghetto, he gets the word of life and the great Golem comes to life ready to do his command against all man. As far as the Golem is used in the direction of right he is a helpful force, but who is to turn the massive power back into clay, or to keep the power from falling into selfish hands.
 There is a difference of opinion as to the significance of the "Golem,' Is the power that is loosed on the world to cause wreck and ruin when it's mission is fulfilled, the human brain, or is it the forces of spirit that man is essaying to call into this sphere? Which is it? The plc- ture itself is work of art in pro duction The Ghetto is wonderful niece of work

It is difficult to imagine more perfect role than that of the mother in The Greatest Love- and It Is equally impossible to imagine any other actress who could interpret it as superbly as Vera Gordon does.
 As Mrs. Lantini. the devoted Wife and big hearted mother, she has even more opportunity to show her super emotional ability than she had In l"Humoresque," her first big success
 But even an actress or such eai- hra as Miss Gordon has to be sur rounded by strong supporting east if her work is to be most effective and in this picture that has been am ply supplied.
