MORAL
In RIALTO
FILM
Beautiful and Damned" Is
Pure Entertainment with
A Punch.

Moore's Rialto found it diff
cult problem to accommodate the
great numbers that turned out
yesterday lured by the The
Beautiful and Damned" title of
this weeks major offering.
F. Scott Fitzgerald, the author,
represents one of our youngest
and most modern as well as most
capable writer's. Perhaps no other
American writer has keener in
sight into the problems Of our
young people than Mr.. Fitz-
gerald; and in this picture, which
is an adaptation of his famous
novel by the same title, he finds
a means of expressing them in
a most interesting and effective
way.
How many instances can each
one of us cite of young man or
woman idling their time away in
careless dissipation and riotous
living while they leisurely wait
for some rich relative to croak?
A typical example is presented
here. But. in this case, the rich
uncle did not die quite as soon as
was expected and rather incon-
siderately he took it upon him
self to sooth the disappointment
of his impatient nephew by adj
ministering q bitter dose in the
form OF disinheritanoe. In the
meantime, the nephew marries a
jazz-crazed girl whose tempera-
ment parallels his own. Wild
escapades, gay parties, drink and
jazz provide the fare on which
they start matrimonial career.
But, as in all such cases, there
comes a Stop! Look! Danger!
signal which warns them Of what
is ahead. In this instance, the
young wife il the first to regain
her senses. For a time the hus-
band continues his reckless course.
Having been disinherited, their
means Of sustenance is cut off
and soon they find themselves
facing poverty. Then, something
else happens, but we will not di-
vulge that here.
After viewing this picture, It
makes one inclined to believe that
perhaps the doctrine Of Catharsis
is corfect-that people who have
their fling when they are young
usually develop into the best men
and women later. i
The balance of the program iss
made up Of excellent filters. w.

CENTRAL
Nav AIlisOn-LarrY SemOn.

'.The Woman Who Fooled Her
SELF in which May Allison ap
pears for the first half OF the
week at Crandall's Central, is a
particularly well mounted photo
drama Of love and business in
trigue on the Equator. The tropi-
cal scenes 4 are completely con-
vincing by reason Of the pictures
having been filmed on the island
of Porto Rico, which, while not
equatorial 10 in no sense sub
tropical. The exterior views
which play a large part in the
development OF a story having to
do with vast coffee, sugar and
tobacco plantations, are marked
by a more luxuriant tropical ver-
dure than even southern Califor-
mia can supply. The companion
feature of the early-week pro-
gram is Larry Semon's side-split-
ting burlesQue, The Counter
Jumper" which concerns the adj
ventures-and he had q plenty
Of q young clerk in the general
store Of small town on the
Western frontier. A new issue
Of the Kilograms and excellent
pipe organ selections round out
the bill, that will continue
through Wednesday.

ture film is excellent despite the
difficulties of camera work under

Harry Adler and Rose Dunbar

Sonia Baraban and Charles

pair jumped to vaudeville and
scored just as big in the varieties
as they did in musical shows.

Bunch and Judy"
Comes Next Week

If the sound of the bagpipes
rouses the true Scot to enthusiasm,
1t is no less true that the I'm.
expected sight of the tartan of his
clan brings up tender memories of
the ancestral hillside and the glory
of family traditions. The tartan
tells a. story to the initiated, but
the ignorant onlooker Is able to
tell one plaid from another only by
the sense of color. Each clan has
it's own distinctive and well-beloved
plaid, and every stripe and each
varied hue tells it's own story to
those who hail from bonnie Scot
land.
In Charles Dillingham; new
musical comedy, THE Bunch and
judy" which comes to the National
on Sunday, February IL, there is
a typical Highland scene, with
purple-hued mountain rising sheer
from the castle grounds, and down
the rugged paths stream the Scots
of some fifteen different clans to
the musical drone of the pipes.
This scene is Called 1.-THE Gather
ing of the Clans" and never fails
to rouse an audienceito enthusiasm
by it's sheer beauty and almost bar
barrie charm. Every one of the tar
tans worn by the people on the
stage is authentic and was espe.
cially imported from Scotland foI
this production. Each item of the
veritabIe Scotch costume is cor
rect in Eery particular.

loverT of Scotland to know that the
