"IAyENDER AND OLD LACE' AN
 INTERESTING DRAMA-RIALTO

The quaintly interesting story Lavender and Old Lace" is being shown at the Rialto all this week In an adaptation so fine that the whole romance, humor and pathos of the book seems to live on the screen. Those who have read this refreshing story of small town loves. of young romance and wasted years with lost Illusions, know the odd appeal of It, the thrilling delving into old and new romances in a small town where memories are treasured and a being falls so easily a victim to illusions instead of life.
 With touches of fine humor in many typical village scenes and ideas that are entertainingly brought out. the really pathetic story of a woman who loved with love everlasting is told. There are also other loves inter wound about the central thread. a young love of two young boa arders who come to the village and become strangely part of the life of the women and two whimsical affairs that provoke many smiles and con- siderable sympathy. The story of tho leading character, the woman who waited for years with faith in her heart, could scarcely be more appeal ing.
 Margaret Snow Is very sweet, gen.

1.-THE BARRICADE" TODAY
 AT FIVE POINTS THEATRE

Directed by William Christy Ca banne, adapted from an original story by Dr. Daniel Carson Goodman. noted screen author, The Barricade" comes to the Five Points theatre today.
 An intensely human theme, devei- oped with all the consummate skill for which MT. CabaHne Is noted, makes "The Barricade" one of the really big subjects of the year. Much of the action takes place in the sium districts of New York city and MT. Cabanne, a master at realism, builds up these scenes in the most skilful fashion.
 The central character of Tne 'Barricade" is a lovable old Jew, a character which is portrayed with the highest distinction by William H. Strauss, for years a well known char acter on the stage and screen.

 Colorful, bright, dramatic and ex- cellently acted, Peacock Alley" Is one of the most absorbing produc- tions in which the charming star has appeared. The famous dancer is given many opportunities to show her art, and her costumes are among the most gorgeous she has ever brought to the screen.
 As the dancer in this colorfui pro- duction, Mae Murray scores with the finest bit of characterization she has ever done, critics say. She is sup ported by 8 notable cast headed by Monte Blue as the youthful husband.
