The Roessler

With the opening of the new
Roessler Building the time is
auspicious for plain, straight
forward talk with the buying
public.
The home furnishers of this
community are entitled to more
information than merely the
fact of the Roessler Furniture
Company opening large, new
building at 1888 Broad Street.
They are interested in the aims
the ideals-the foundation OF
this new company.
You have every right to ask:
"Is the Roessler Company fill
ing an actual need in Newark"
The answer is, most en-
phatically, "Yes!"
Because we know of no fur
niture shop where the RoeSsler
policy will be duplicated.
At Roessler's you will be able
to obtain all that is newest and
best in furniture, oriental and
domestic rugs and carpets and
high quality bedding, covering
every possible point of merit
design, construction, durability,
color and harmony-at prices
that will prove a genuine reve-
lation.

THREE FAMOUS SCREEN
STARS PLAY kick IN
Betty Compson, Bert Lytell and May
McAvoy Seen In Big
Feature Roles

Presenting a remarkable stellar
cast, George Fitzmaurice's superb
Paramount production, "Kick In,"
based on Willard Mack's successful
play, will be the feature at the Lib
erty theatre for two days commenc-
ing Thursday next.
While it is admitted that in some
pictures too many outstanding play
ers might give a crowded" effect,
nothing like that is possible in "Kick
H." because of the fact that while
the production contains eleven per-
sons of stellar rank, the cen are
so divided hat the players appear in
groups.
The feature players are Betty
Compson, Bert Lytell and May Nc
Avoy, while others in the cast in

Two pathetic Kid crooks are May

made a big success in Sensational

Of course, there are the two main
roles of Chic Hewes, a reformed
crook, and Molly Brandon, the dis
tr1ct attorneys daughter. Betty
Compson and Bert LyteN were con-
sidered ideal for the two parts be-
cause it was in crook parts that they
made their first great successes, Bert

"Kick In" is said to present set as
well as individual variety, the scenes
flashing rapidly from the slums to
upper Fifth avenue, from an exqui-
site boudoir to a sordid tenement,
from the cabarets to the bread line.
And in between all the drama of the
hunters and the hunted, the eternal
strife between the police and those
that society considers the 'slawless."
