BUSTER KEATON IN
ROARING COMEDY
IS At THE RIAL TO

Comedy, comedy drama, and an ex-
ceptionally clever arrangement of
musical numbers, combine to make
the program now holding forth at the
Rialto an immense entertainment
value.
Buster Keaton divides honors with
Viola Dana in the motion picture end
Of the lineup. Keaton's comedy is
"The Boat" best described as an
ocean of laughs and sea of fun.
Never have we seen a more ingenious
theme worked into a slapstick COM
edy. Keaton has been responsible for
many of the funniest comedies ever
to reach the screen, but We'll war
rant the statement that never before
has he accomplished so much in a
fun feature as he has incorporated in
this one.
"The Boat" starts off with roar
ing laugh, and that laugh never stops,
but rather increases as the rapid-fire
action is sent out from the silver
sheet. In theme" it all happens be-
cause Keaton, as the proud head Of a
family which includes a wife and
several kiddies, decides to build him.
self boat that he may take the
flock for an ocean cruise. There's
where the fun runs wild, starting
from the moment of the completion
of the bark to the final fadeout the

ization Of role Of contrasts and op-
posites in which intensely emotional
shading vies with dramatic strength
in making it stand out as particularly
one of the dramatic treats of the new
season.
In theme the action concerns a
young American whose life is
wrapped up in the love he bears for
his wife and child. A big diamond
merger in which he is intensely in
terested carries him to South Amer
lea His employer. secretly coveting
the mans wife, is pleased with the
appointment OF the husband as the
representative OF the American in
terests, and no sooner has he de-
parted than the employer starts his
subtle scheme for forcing his atten-
tions on the wife. Repulsed, the man
Is none the less persistent, and mat
ters are at this point when a great
diamond discovered on the Ameri-
cans property in Africa assures the
successful termination of the merger.
An adventuresome crook has learned
Of the discovery, and having secretly
plotted with the valet Of the Ameri-
can, they lay elaborate plans for rob-
bing him Of the great stone which
he is bringing back to America. But
when the attack is launched by the
crooks, a stranger takes the part OF
the besieged man, and the attack
fails. Investigation proves the
stranger to be scapegoat twin
brother OF the American, a son who
has been disowned by the family
years before. Hearing the story, the
American persuades his brother to
return home with him and start all
over again. On the return voyage
another attempt is made at robbery,
a scheme which incorporated the
stopping OF the vessel in midocean.
But mistake by the bribed stolSer
forces the steam into the boilers,
bursting them and wrecking the ship.
The twin brother is rescued with the
valet, and the American and adven-
turer are supposed to be lost. The
valet returns to America, and in the
office Of the employer unfolds a brill
liant representation scheme in which
the twin is to take the place of hi'

numerous as to almost require card
index system. A diary is kept by the
little 'flapper," and this the father
finds. He is determined to take mat
ters in his own hands but his daugh-
ter has gotten to point where he is
powerless to intervene effectively. A
theater party given by the butterfly
daughter to her father on his birth
day solves the parents problem. The
play is ''The Tanning of the Shrew;"
the star, personal friend Of the
fathers. why not have the actor seem
to seek the girl, have the father up
braid her for keeping company with
an actor; have the girl play right into
his hands by keeping company in
spite of protest; have her fall in love
with the dashing matinee idol and
then have him jilt her with the same
abandon IS she has Tilted hundreds.
"A capital idea and one that is set in
motion; but the actor is not prepared
for the rebuff he gets in the first
skirmish; he is not prepared for the
blow when he finds himself honestly
in love; he is not prepared for many

unraveling of the story, things which

itself, and which have caused the pro-
duction to be classed as great" by
every audience who has witnessed it.

charged. Thoroughly crushed, he
goes home, only to find notification
that he has fallen heir to an i'm
mense estate, the benefactor of a man
of whom he has never heard. Inves-
tigation proves the man had loved the
lads mother and had watched the
career of the boy for years. The
man Of wealth had never married; he
was a miser, and further investiga-
tion proved he had been murdered.
His next surprise is in the refusal of
the girl he loves to marry him; his
wealth, the girl argues, might stand
prefers to await the effect his sudden
fortune will have on his character
before giving him a definite answer.
Then comes a mysterious message
from a gang who threaten him with
death unless he complies with cer-
tain financial stipulations. Every in
dication points to this being the same
gang that murdered his benefactor.
He decides to fight, and to run to
earth those responsible for the crime,
and, persuading an actor friend of
his to impersonate him, that his
departure will not be noted, he plays
lone hand against the crooks, His
inspiration is the girl he loves; he
will prove to her he is every inch a
man; that wealth has made no diff
ference. What his adventures lead
to; the clever working out of the
romance, and the surprise climax, are
all important factors in the excellence
Of the story which the Strand starts
today.
The added attractions are the Pathe
News and the comedy. '"Tanktown
