 WASTELAND HERE
Palace Has COlOred Film for

Wan derer of the Wasteland," which was produced fin the original locale described in the book, the deserts of Arizona, by Irwin Willat. Jack Holt, Kathlyn Williams. Noah Beery and Billy Dove are featured in the prin- cipal roles. ....
 According to Jesse L. Lasky. first Vice-president in charge of produc- ton of Paramount, "Wanderer of the Wasteland" is Zane Grey's favorite story and the most popular of all the books he has given to the Amer ican public.
 This staff took with it into the desert all of the intricate parapher- nalia necessary for the photograph ing of ceor pictures, the entire pro- duction company spending several weeks in camp, as practically tall of the picture was photographed in the desert.
 
 Not only because of the color photography but also because of the dramatic story, which Zane Grey has written. we expect 'Wanderer of the Wasteland' to prove one of the out standing pictures of the year."
 "Wanderer of the Wasteland," which will be shown Sunday, Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday at the Palace theater is a story of the great American Sahara, where men braved unbelievable hardships in their hunt for gold-a hunt, which brought thousands into the desert--a hunt, from which mere handfuls returned successful; many never did return at all. The mere fact that this Zane Grey novel sold over million copies, is evidence enough of the popularity of the story.
 On Thursday Colleen Moore will be offered in The Perfect Flapper."

Messalina was woman of rare beauty but of easy virtue, who lived In the Imper- ial palace with her husband, Clau- dius, who was a nephew to Emper- or Caligula and counsel The em- peror was a great tyrant and Messa- lima took advantage of the hatred of his people to make her husband em- peror. Her friend and companion was an Egyptian princess, until they both fell in love with young slave, famous chariot driver. The jeal- ousy between the two, the plot to outwit each other and the hate of the princess for young girl slave, brought about intrigue and drama which reached the climax in the death of the princess and MessaIina, with the two young lovers happily united. This picture played Water- bury at increased prices, but will be shown here at the regular Lyceum scale.
 Commencing Thursday and for the last three days of the week, "A Girl of the Limberlost," Gene Stratton Porter's great novel, will be the fea- turo attraction. The scenes of the book made famous by the word painting of the authoress are now revealed on the screen, interwoven with a romance whose pathos and tender sentiment will make the pie ture as well remembered as the or iginal book story. ..
