Marion Davies a. RlaIto

'Enchantment," starring Marion
Davies, the present attraction at the
Rialto, certainly proved to be film
rightly named. for it is a most en-
chanting entertainment.
Delightful as the original story,
"Manhandling Ethel" was in the
Cosmopolitan magazine, it has been
made doubly so in the wonderful
scale of beauty and sumptious mag
nificence reached in the filmed adap-
tation.
Marion Davies is superb She ham
dies the role to absolute perfection,
and dresses" the role in the most
stunning manner. 1t is a treat in
itself TO watch the display of al
Turing feminine finery in "Enchant-
ment
And on par with the pretty gowns
are the wonderful setting, spectacles
that present a feast for the eyes.
And then when one couples all this
with the fact that it would be hard
to imagine a cutter, more sparkling
and more appealing story than that
told in the comedy. one gains a slight
idea of the real entertainment value
offered in "Enchantment."
Marion Davies as Ethel is a
modern "flapper." pretty. winsome,
mucilly sought by the masculine gem
der, q prominent figure at the fash
ionable society functions, and eX
elusive cafes and cabarets. She rap
idly gains a most exalted opinion of
her beauty and feels that she just

WEIRD PHOTOPLAY
COMES To COLUMBIA
OPENING THURSDAY

Beginning Thursday. Mauk's Co
lumbia theater offers its patrons one
OF, or perhaps it is safe to say, the
most unusual photoplay ever filmed
in the presentation of the strange
drama The Cabinet of DIR. cali
gari."
Worthy of Edgar Allen Poe, the
story of this mighty picture is the
very acme of all that is weird, fan
tastic and strange. Madness, murder
and nightmare scenes provide not one
moment during the entire screening
that is without a thrill.
The settings Of the picture are in
themselves an innovation, being de-
signed after the wild nightmare
paintings of the cubist artists.
The story is that Of a madman
telling a bystander of his hallucina-
ton. it being apparent from the start
to the beholder that the narrator is
mad, yet SO logically does his story
fit one incident into the next that the
interest is gripped and carried for
ward in a mastery fashion The
dramatic yet fantastic episodes bor
der on the horrible and the story is
packed with surprises.
The Cabinet of DIR. Caligari is
not a picture to amuse. 1t goes far
beyond that and the screening OF il
offers the patrons of Mauk's Colum
bia theater an opportunity to see
what has been classed as one of the
ten greatest pictures of the year.

ing George Banta and Marie Rich.
These two clever people are well

have been engaged to present the

the high standard to be set in this
engagement
A special score accompanies the
production, insuring correct musical
presentation. This is perfectly syn
chronized with the film. and is bound
to add materially to the enjoyment
of the feature.
AS was was the case with THE
Four Horsemen," the management is
urging the advisability of everyone
being seated before the beginning OF
each performance, and for this rea-
son, it is respectfully requested that
the screen times be carefully noted,
and then arrangements for witness
ing the spectacle may be made ac-
cordingly
And spectacle is the only word to
correctly describe the wonder and
beauty of "The Three Musketeers."
Nothing in the career of Fairbanks
has ever offered him the opportunity
presented in practically every scene
in the present production. II has
been the lifelong ambition Of the in
imitable Doug to create the beloved
role of "D'Artagnan" for the silent
drama, and in realizing that am
bition, he has achieved a master
work-a filmed record of the novel
that will endure with the same rev.
erence in which Dumas immortal
story is held by millions of its read
ers all over the world.
The production actually cost over
a million dollars. 1t represents the
most amazing plane of production
yet attempted in film circles. Every
scene is a new wonder. every situ-
alton new phase of the story. each
sequence advancing the story, and
building every character. The story
of the knight errant of the seven
teenth century whose escapades and
endeayors, together with his friend
ship for the Kings musketeers, made
possible the smashing of one of the
biggest intrigues in history, is too
well known to require a synopsis.
THE Three Musketeers" is a house
hold word internationally familiar,
and every indication points to an
other link being added to the nation
wide chain of unending success for
the picture, in the engagement which
the Rialto will start Friday.

DUNBAR OPERA CO.
To OPEN SEASON Of
LIGHT OPERA HERE

The efforts of Brandon Brothers to
secure the Dunbar opera company for
a season of comic opera stock has
met with success and announcement
is now positively made that the COM
pany will return to the Elks theater
next Tuesday, Jan. 81. for an in
definite stay, presenting some of the
standard comic operas, opening on
Tuesday with the delightful opera,
The Mascot of which the public
never tires. THE Mascot" viii run
for six nights, with popular matinees
on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.
The company will give way the sec
ond week for five nights for the Elks
annual show and then return for an
extended run at popular prices.
Just realize what this will mean
for Phoenix and vicinity We will
have positively the best light opera
organization in America at popular
prices. All those who saw this CONF
panys excellent performance of
robin Hood know that the above
statement is no eXaggeration. There
is not poor voice i'm the entire COM
pany and the principal artists are
musicians of the highest type. The
company returns exactly as it was
heard here in robin Hood" without
one of the stars missing and with its
own special orchestra and conductor
and with a full carload of special
scenery, costumes and effects. The
only change is in the opera and in the
prices, and now the latter are within
the reach of everyone, and everyone
should take advantage of this ex-
ceptional opportunity.
This viii probably be the most ap-
preciated event in amusement circles
that Phoenix has known in many,
many moons. 1t insures a season of
real delight to those who love music,
and especially light and comic opera,
when it is presented in a finished and
artistic manner. That is exactly what
the Dunbar Opera company always
does. The advance sale for seats
opens at the ElSs box office this
