What Do Men Want?" Lois Web CTS latest screen drama shown for the first time in this city last night at the Empress Theater is a picture with a tremendously human appeal to women. Millions of married women and millions of sweethearts will learn through this great American drama of the hunt for happiness the things that promote real contentment among men.
 What Do Men Want?" is said to reach the greatest heights Miss Weber has ever attained in her art of pro- ducing living breathing photodramas. even bigger and broader in it's appli- cation to everyday people in everyday life than "Where Are My Children?" "Hypocrites,' Scandal" "The Price of a Good Time" and other Weber sue cesses that have held audiences spell bound in the past.
 When questioned about the type of picture that "hits home" to movie audiences, Manager Pinkus, of the Elm press Theater stated that photoplays that offered entertainment with the added value of pointing moral were the kind of pictures the public like best. What Do Men Want" shown for the last time tonight.
 Tomorrow: Rex Beach's crashing drama of the Great North, "The North Winds Malice" with an all-star cast. An inspiring story of Alaska during the gold rush, produced under the per sonal supervision of Rex Beach, and played by a cast of well-known per formers, including Tom Sanschi, Vera Gordon, Joe King and William H. Strauss.
 A picture that will transport you to a new world, a world lit up by the glinting radiance of true romance. It is one of the best stories Rex Beach has contributed to the screen. Don't miss it.
