Whales

The sperm whale could swallow
man. 1t grows TO a length of GO feet
and has an enormous head, which
amounts to about half its bulk and
third of its length. Its throat is
broad enough to allow it to swallow
man. The sperm whale is found chief
~ in southern waters, and in consid-
cradle numbers in the vicinity Of New
Zealand. Occasionally, though, 1t is
met with as far north as the Arctic.
One of number of important points
that distinguish it from other whales
is that it has teeth. The throat of
most varieties of whales are COM
paratively small-not more than four
or five inches across.

5000 THEATRES JOIN IN
MOVEMENT FOR BETTER
FILMS WEEK OF SEPT. GLIB

Confident that the public will
support the best in screen enter
tainment, the more progressive the.
atre owners in this territory have
Joined the national movement tc
celebrate Paramount Week, Sept. 6
to IL, when 5000 theatres throughout
the country will unite in exhibiting
Paramount pictures exclusively.
1t is significant that the Famous
Players-Lasky Corporation has chos-
en- newspapers almost exclusively to
advertise Paramount Week. Coming
as it does just after the opening of
the Greater Movie Season, it will on
this, its eighth annual year, be more
widespread and popular than ever.
The past seven years have proved
Paramount Week not only a pros
porous one for exhibitors but it now
is recognized as a national move
ment giving prestige with those
theatres identifying themselves with
the movement.
To send the week off to a flying
start the Famous Players-Lasky
Corporation is advertising in $500
newspapers throughout the country.
These include both daily and week.
ly, and the sum spent is one of the
largest ever by any one corporation
in American newspapers in single
day.
1t is only within the past few
years that Paramount has included
weekly papers in it's list, and it is
recognized as tribute to power of
the rural press.
A strong bid for continued popu-
larity among the movie-goers was
made by Paramount during the past
year when that company released |
such pictures as "The Covered Wag-
on" "Thundering Herd" "The Ten
Commandments" 'Manhandled,"
Monsieur Beaucaire," Merton Of
the Movies" North Of &c." "Peter
Pan" and many others of equal note.
And the company has in store for
early release such pictures as are
certain to keep Paramount out in
front in public interest. They include
That Royle Girl" and other produc-
tiOns directed by the noted D. w.
comedies with Hard Lloyd
starring, comedies with Douglas
MacLean starring; "a Beggar on
a James Cruze produc-
ion; "The Pony Express" another :
Cruze masterpiece.
1t is this latter picture that Vice {
President Dawes became so enthus- '
astic about it when he saw it being {
lined, and he suggested showing it
o President Coolidge when complet- b
