 |S SUPER PICTURE AT LOEW'S BIJOU

Gold Diggers" is the title of the super-picture, based on Belascos fa- nous play, which Is on the program at Loew's Bijou all this week. be- ginning Monday, forming a part of an exceptional bill under the new full-week bill policy.
 Contrary to it's literal meaning. "gold diggers" are not, people en- gagged in searching the depths of the earth for the precious metal, but as shown in this picture, they are beau tiful young women, whose profession Is dancing and acting, but who spend their spare time digging" for gold in the form of entertainment, jewels, clothing and money; and these inci- dentals they get from business men who seek diversion from the worry and stress of business.
 Thus a troupe of gold diggers, led by one Jerry Lamar, the widest and gayest of the party, live merrily in a large apartment, while their ex- penses are being paid for by a num- Der of wealthy men.
 How true love enters into their lives and complicates the whole af- fair and how Jerry plots and plans to bring things to a successful ter imitation is brought out In this film in a highly interesting and thor oughly amusing way.
 The large and expensive cast is composed of Hope Hampton, Louise Fazenda, Windham Standing, Ger trude Short, Alec Francis Jed Prouty. Arita Gilman. Peggy Brown, Margaret Seddon, Johnny 'Harron, Ann Cornwall, Edna Tichenor, Fran ces Ross, Marie Prade and Louise Beaudot Harry Beaumont directed this David Belasco production.

Fred Niblo's latest production. Strangers of the Night" at the Strand, required locale similar to the cliffs and the coast peculiar to Cornwall, In England.
 MT. Niblo went up and down the Californian coast looking for the same manor on the same cliff on the identical coast which Walter Hack ettt, author of the stage success, Captain Applejack." from which the photoplay Is adapted. described as a feudal manor on the Cornish coast.
 For weeks Alvin Wyckoff, MT. Niblo's cameraman, took pictures all along the California coast. But La guna cliffs, smiling down on the swirling waters, sparkle too tropi- cally in California sunlight to con- vince the exacting camera that Corn wall has been moved.
 After a fruitless search, which taxed the whole personnel, a chap visited Mir. Niblo's studio and pro duced a photograph of a stern faced, rock bit of coast MT. Niblo's staff looked at the picture despairingly, casually asking the lad where the picture had been taken, expecting to hear him say Scotland or some other cline equally distant.
 To their amazement. he told them that it was taken five miles down the coast, where the water was al- ways in a turbulent state. due to an eternal spring. It was made to or der, and it was handler than their widest dreams had conjectured.
 Production on the colorful scenery which answered the requirements so well was soon under way and Corn wall was brought to the screen.
 strangers of the Night" is the second in the series of Fred Niblo productions presented by Louis B. Mayer and distributed by Metro Pic lures corporation. It is adapted from the famous London and New York stage success, Captain Apple jack" by Walter Hackett. The sec mario was prepared by Bess Mere dyth and the photoplay was in charge of Alvin Wyckoff.
