Tivoli-" Empty Hands. -

Crandall's Tivoli Theater this week
beginning this afternoon at o'clock,
will offer as the major film feature,
Paramount's production of Empty
Hands," in which the stellar role is
played by Jack Holt, supported by
Norma Shearer, Charles Clary, Ward
Crane, Hank Mann and others. The
comedy for the week will be Short
Change" in which a cast of farceurS
appear and the orchestral features
is under the conductorship of Elias
Breeskin.
In addition to the concert overture
there will be presented a musical in
terval originated and produced by
John J. Payette, in charge of presen-
tations in the Crandall Theaters.
This innovation will take the form of
an intimate fireside scene, revelatory
of vocal and instrumental musician
ship.
Empty Hands" relates a story of
a man Injured to the vast open spaces
and a beautiful society leader who
are thrown together in the environs
to which the man is most accustomed.
In the wildS they are forced to COM
bat the natural elements with empty
hands," and the romance that de-
velops is strikingly original. Miss
Shearer is devastating as the beauty
who finally lures Mr.. Holt into a love
affair that he had not suspected to
be in the offing.
Short Change" is comedy that is
based on a purely farcial idea and
then developed with all of the serious
ness that is needed to make successful
farce. The bill will embrace a new
issue of the specially assembled news
reel and added camera subjects of
abbreviated length.

1t happened in a small town in
Kansas while Willat and Hamilton
were motoring across country to

Emerson Hough's story, in which
Lois Wilson. Jack Holt. Ernest Tor
renee and Noah Beery play leading
roles.
On the trip they carefully went
over every detail of the picture and
at the end of the days run it was
their custom to retire to their hotel
room and act some of the scenes to
test which effects would be best.

ately after leaving New York and
when they arrived in Kansas they
had reached the climax-the place
where Jack Holt finds Noah Beery.

Hamilton enacted the role which
they become in their acting of this
particular scene that they failed to

knock sounded on the door and three
deputy sheriffs stepped in that they
awoke to the realization of the way
they had been threatening each

Columbia-Valentino In
"Monsieur Beaucaire

The success achieved by Rudolph
Valentino in his return to the screen
in the Paramount perturbation OF
Booth Tarkington's Monsieur Beau
caire" at Loew's Columbia Theater
during the past week has forced the
management to extend, Tor another
week, Valentines picture.
Valentino has demonstrated at the
Columbia, during the past week that
his hold on the hearts of feminine
admirers has not been lessened by
his two-year retirement from cinema
endeavor while his enactment of the
title role has won to his support new
masculine admirers who have found
in Monsieur Beaucaire" a story of
dramatic appeal.
Sidney Olcott, who is responsible
for some of Gloria Swanson'S and
Marion Davies successes, directed the
screen production of monsieur Beau
caire" while the cast that appears In
Mr.. Valentines support includes Lo-
well Sherman. Doris Kenyon, Bebe
Daniels, Lois Wilson. John Davidson.
Ian MacLaren. Frank shannon, II.
Cooper Cliffe, Downing Clark, Flor
ence o. DeniShawn and others.
Valentino assumes the role of the
Due de Charles, favorite of Louis XIV
of France and one of the most sauve
and ariStocratic courtierS of that ia
nous and dissolute court.
Owing to the unusual length OF the
production the usual supplemental
features of the Columbia program
have been omitted. though the Col
umbia symphony Orchestra, under
Director Leon Brusilof, has arranged a
symph onic prelude and a special musi
cal score that enhances the appeal OF
Monsieur Beaucaire.'

First Dinosaur Fighter.

THERE have been pioneers in wom-
an suffrage. woman pioneers in
all sorts of professions, pioneers in
the bobbed-hair moVement-and now
we have a woman dinoSaur-fighting
pioneer.
She is Bessie Love, who has the
feminine lead in The Lost World"
now being produced under the super
vision of Earl Hudson. To her goes
the distinction of being the first
woman in the world who ever fought
an allosaurus. Maybe she is the only
woman who would want to fight one.
Perhaps it constitutes an anachro-
nism to state that it is possible for a
woman or man to fight a dinosaur
al this late day. The species of dino
saur to which the allosaurus belongs
existed millions of years before the
origin of man. approximately $4,000
years ago.
But. according to Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle's story, Prof. Challenger
claims that they are alive today in
the inaccessible districts of the ANA
zon. In the story Bessie's father
found them and so she accompanies
the professor on an exploration party
to point out where her father had
abandoned the search.
Bessie Love says that if ever Prof.
Challengers prediction should come
true that a mighty brontosaurus
should invade London and other prin =
cipal cities of the world, as it does
in the photoplay, she will indeed be
thankful for the knowledge of dino
saur fighting that she gained from
her appearance in "The Lost World"

High Life Tires Actor.
WALTER LONG leaned against

WALTER LONG leaned against a
grand piano and yearned for the
wide open spaces. He wore a dress
suit and an imitation diamond that
scintillated like snow bank in the
sunshine.
Just a bootlegger off his range,
with a craving for the great out of
DOORS" Thus he characterized him
self, as he chatted between scenes.
II haven't been on location for a
year." he complained. Il hope some
body casts me as a cowboy, SO that

1t was on a set where Wine" the
picture exposing the liquor traffic in
society, was being filmed at Universal
City, shown here this week at the
Rialto. Long has the role of master
of ceremonies, the king of the boot
leggers.
In the midst Of his eulogy on the
grandeur of the plains, Fred Kohler,
screen heavy" walked on the set to
say hello to a friend in Wine" He
stopped for minute to greet the lads
around the piano and get an earful
of the atmosphere of Gods country
where men are men, as vividly paint
ed by Longs words 1t made the
heavy ,lightheaded and he brutally
poked a pin in the Long bubble.
He told the boys that he had just
returned from a seven weeks loca-
ton trip in Nevada. The weather
was so cold that the grease froze on
the ham and eggs at breakfast time,
the beautiful plains were blanketed
with a foot of snow, the wind blew
the roof off the cabin and he got nine
chillblains on each foot.

Adolphe Menjou Ends
Career as Villain

Under the terms of the contract
that Adolphe Menjou recently
signed with the Femous Players
Lasky Corporation it is rumored that
he received hard-and- fast assurances
that in future he would not be re-
quired to play yillainous roles.
Although Menjous success has only
come to him within the last IS
months, he is. today, the most sought
after actor for so-called aristocratic
roles In the whole of movie-land.
Nevertheless. until he signed a con-
tract with Paramount a short time
ago, Menjou's natural joy at his sue
cess was tempered in large measure
by the fact that there was still
large contingent of directors who re-
fused to engage him for anything but
villainous roles. And Menjou does
not want to be a villain.
BY curious coincidence, Menjou
not only played a prominent part in
Washington last week in "Open All
Night" but he aagin comes to the To-
cal screen this week in another pro-
duction, Sinners in Silk"
Menjou's creation OF. new type of
screen hero was accomplished in the
face of unusual odds. consisting of
the fact that he not only possessed a
previous reputation for playing viii
famous roles with success but that he
also reflected, in his person, the quail
tiles that are regarded as adapted
primarily to villainous purposes in
the drama.
For example. he is somewhat ma
ture-appearing to be on the shady
side of 30-he can wear clothes with
the savoir faire OF the Prince of
the Prince of Wales. he possesses a
mustache that can curl most super
ciliously and he seems, at all times, to
have a way with the women.
