max came when he told fathers how
he had looked forward to training a

told that he had planned to be an

R|ALTO To PRESENT
FAIRBANKS IN THE
THREE MUSKETEERS"

No more vivid or picturesque tale
of love, intrigue, daring and adven-
ture has ever been written than
"The Three Musketeers," Alexandra
Dumas sublime epic of the seven
teenth century. 1t has held readers
enthralled and on down the halls of
time its popularity has ever in
creased. In the future years it will
continue to be one OF the most
eagerly read and most thoroughly en-
joyed masterpieces in the entire
world of literature.
What more appreciated announce
ment could possibly come from the
great motion picture world than that
THE Three Musketeers' has been
vlsualized on a scale more elaborate.
more comprehensive and more in
spring than was ever before at
tempted: that Douglas% Fairbanks
will be seen in the beloved role of
"D'Artagnan": that such players as
Marguerite de Ia Mott, Barbara. La
Marr, Walt Whitman, Sidney Frank.
lin, Mary MacLaren, Thomas Holding
and host of others too numerous to
mention will be seen in a supporting
array that represents the very finest
talent available in the realm of the
shadow art And this is the produc-
tlon which the Rialto announces for
an engagement starting next Friday.
rms is the production all Phoenix
is awaiting with that same eagerness
as 1t is awaited by every city it is vet
70 visit. Booked solidly, one of the
most persistently sought productions
by all the leading theaters of Ameri-
ca, The Three Musketeers" is daily
adding to the majority by which it
has scored nationally as the finest
motion picture yet to reach the
screen. Records made by the -Four
Horsemen" have been shattered, and
until the release of "The Musketeers"
II was believed the very limit in at
tendance figures had been reached.
The Three Musketeers" records
more house records than any produce
tion on either the stage or screen
has ever reached.
The Rialto is making elaborate
plans for the proper presentation of
this masterpiece. The length of the
feature precludes the possibility of
more than two screenings daiIv' the
afternoons promptly at 2:15 and the
evenings promptly at S:15. and for
this reason the management is MAX
ing special requests that the screen
times be noted and that the patrons
be seated before the start OF each
screening. All the night screenings
will be on the reserved seat plan =
and the same thing applies to the
Saturday and Sunday matinees-but
the balance Of the matinees will not
be reserved. 1t is announced that the
seat sale will open at the theater
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock. and
that seats for any of the night per-
formances, and for the Saturday and
Sunday matinees may be obtained at
that time.
Geo. j. Hayes is preparing one of
the most pretentious musical set
tlngs he has ever given a feature.
Everything points to the engage
ment of Douglas Fairbanks in '"The
Three Musketeers" being the most
brilliant theatrical event Of next
week, certainly the production rep
resents the most brilliant attraction
now before the public.

NEW PROGRAM SETS
STANDARD FOR FUN
IN LOCAL THEATERS

Starting today an engagement that
will undoubtedly set new standards
for fun and laughter. the Rialto is

Buster Keaton, Viola Dana, and a
Santfsjeal presentation that combines

parts.
Buster Keaton's vehicle Is "The
Boat" and a funnier, more ridicu-
ious conglomeration of slapstick
stunts were meyer thought out by the
most imaginative genius on any of
the comedy "lots." The very idea is
orfgfnal--that of chap who builds
himself a craft on which he starts to
make cruise of the Pacific ocean.
Buster Keaton is invincible in the

a roar of laughter. and one does not
have time to catch his breath before
he rs convulsed at some new stunt
which the versatile Buster is offer
ing. Buster wrote and directed the
comedy himself 1t is cited every
where as being the funniest slapstick
affair in many seasons. and it is
bound to find instant favor with the
Rialto's clientele.
And Viola Dana's picture is a per-
feet jewel. 1t reviews the adven-
lures that befell a girl operative of
the San Francisco secret service. who
was assigned to the case of a ring
Of opium dealers. It blends comedy
with flashes Of the dramatic--is told
ir a breezy, entertaining fashion, and
gives the star a role which she
handles in the same vivacious style
that has made her one Of the most
popular girls on the screen. The
actio1 involves her taking a position

character man has done.
As Farralone. an artist member of
a. group of fanatical social reformers,
he has an unbounded opportunity to
show some of the great cnaMlcteriz-
tioa work in which he excels. In this
picture his role departs from the usu-
al story in which he is cast as a
character, either wholly evil or who'll
ly good. In THE Ace of Hearts" he
portrays wholly human character
capable of both good and evil. and
with the splendid cast carrying the
other roles, makes this picture one
not soon forgotten.
A Hallroom Boys comedy, Taking

banquet at the Leland at 6:30 o'clock
last evening, for M. F. Mulroy, who
leaves soon for his future home in

and several responded to toasts.
DR.. L. H. Kermott, "King of the
Curlers," made few appropriate re-
marks, stating that it was with the
deepest regret on the part of every
curler that mike" is leaving.
Ed Shirley, president of the Rotary,
responded to the following toast, in a
feeling manner: "Are Mike and I
frends?" He referred to the Duluth
Rotary trip in detail, explained in an
calculating manner some things that
hitherto appeared to be unexplainable.
Mr. Mulroy was presented with fit
ting memento and he responded in an
appropriate manner.
No member will be more sorely
missed from the curling club than
Mr.. Mulroy, one Of the most consistent
players and best boosters for Minot's
