Many directors Of motion
pictures find music helpful and
even necessary to get the men,

mood for emotional scenes. Tom
Terriss, director of Find the

Paramount picture
coming to Moore's Rialto Theater
for the week beginning Sunday,
had an orchestra playing In one
of the most stirring sequences
in this Arthur Sommers Roche
story.
The actors, In a drawing room
setting, were supposed to evince
fright and establishment at the
sound of pistol fired in another
room. but the players. instead
OF putting real emotion into their
performances, moved listlessly as
II they were attending the last
rites for a dear friend.
Director Terriss stormed, insist
ing on more snap, but there was
no improvement. Then he real
lied the trouble. The orchestra
was playing a slow lullaby, fit
only to rock a baby to sleep.
He gave orders to the leader to
play old-time Embarrassing the
ice" music. and it brought re-
suits.
Find the Woman" Is a great
mystery photoplay involving the
capture of a murderer after d
theatrical agent is found stabbed
to death in his office. Eileen
Huban, George MacQuarrie, Har-
rison Ford, Henry Sedley, Nor
