Scrambled Wives"

Did you ever know pictures had
manners, just the same as individuals?
Well, they have and Marguerite Clark
called attention to the fact in comment
ing upon her First National production
Scrambled Wives" 1t seems that be-
cause of the tendency of camera to
distort it has been dangerous to al
ways see that ladies were all seated
before the gentlemen took their places
In a drawing room scene. The nat
ural differenc in height would be so
much emphasized that the men would
appear ready to shoot right out of the
top of the picture. But nothing like
that in Scrambled Wives according
TO Miss Clark. who characterizes it as
the best hammered" picture in which
she has ever appeared in spite of the
fact that it is farce comedy. "Scram-
bled Wives" will be shown at the Lyric
theatre Tuesday.

~The Kentuekiansp

Monte Blue, the big WesterTer who
made a distinct success recently in
the Cecil De Mile production of

probably the strongest role in his
screen career in the Charles Maigne
production OF "The Kentuckians," the
well known John Fox. Jr.. novel which
comes to the Eagle theatre Friday and
Saturday and Central theatre next
Sunday. He enacts the role of Eoone
Stallard. a Kentucky mountaineer,
who goes to the legislature with the
ambition OF winning emancipation for
his fellowmen.
No sooner does he attend a session
of the legislature than he has a clash
with Randolph Marshall. a Kentucky
aristocrat. who VOWS that the only
way to get order into the mountainous
regions is to disrupt the mountain
GERS country A feud in the noun
tains causes Stallard to flee to his
people and he demonstrates success
fully that he can rule them. When
he returns to Frankfort, planning to
ask the hand Of the governors daugh-
ter in a marriage. he is brought to a
sudden realization Of the difference
between the mountaineers and the
Blue Grass people and refrains from
any such step and the picture closes
with the assumption that Marshall
wins the girl.

"rhsIost Romance"

To watch William deMille direct
impresses one much the same way as
when one watches master musician
play with perfect touch upon the keys
of an instrument and then listen to
the notes as they respond to his touch
This was the statement of a noted
writer who visited the uasky studio
at Hollywood, Calf, where scenes for
1.-THE Lost Romance" the new William
deA1ille Paramount production to be
shown at the Eagle theatre this after
noon and tonight and also Monday
night, was being filmed.
"He holds the story and theme OF
his picture in his mind, just as the
musician feels the spirit and theme of
the composition" said the observer.
"He outlines to the player the emo
tions he. is to express, the thoughts
that stir him as he buries himself in
the Characterization. The actor feels
those emotions and thinks those
thoughts and the result is his perfect
expression OF the idea"
The new picture is said to be per-
feet example of ideal screen direction.
The Characterization are by Fon-
tame La Rue, Conrad Nagel, Jack Holt
Lois Wilson, Maym Kelso and other
we'll known favorites. The story in
wolves one OF the biggest and most
vital themes in the lives of the aver
age man and woman and is one that
should appeal to every picture fan.

The charming little flapper star.
Gladys Walton comes to the Lyric
theatre next Thursday in brand new
Universal comedy-drama High Heels"
High Heels is a delightful story
of girl who was too rich. She could
MT adjust herself to the world in gem
eral. She couldn't tolerate her broth
ers-nor even her father, whose money
brought her position. She was just a
spoiled little society Gebutante.
Then came the crash. Money, pos
ition, power and sham friends all dis
appeared. From flapper, it changed
her into Christine, the woman, who
understood.
Opposite the star is Frederick VO-
geding, the husband of Florence Rob-
erts, who gives an excellent portrayal
as the young doctor. William Worth
ington, the distinguished director and
actor. handles the role of the grouchy
old man next door with the finesse of
the polished actor. Others in a notable
cast are Freeman Wood, George Hack
athOrn, the Debriac twins, Milton

Dunbar, Olo Norman, Leigh Wyant,

PAY Day is the title of it's latest,
described as a galaxy of fun with new

pack a houseful of laughs from the
opening title to the final closeup.
Chaplin appears in one of his in
imitable laborer roles, looking forward
to pay day with the same anxious face
with which an expectant parent waits
for the doctor to say: Its boy" His
comedy carries the story at swift
pace from a huge construction plant
where "a, skyscraper is being erected
and finally to the haunts of the ten

on pay day, and finally home to the
wife. From each set the star obtains
a maximum of fun at minimum, OF
