RIALTO-
Varied Features

A conflict is on at the Rialto
this week; battle royal between
forces Of the>~> silver. sheet and
stars Of the music world. Just
who will eventually survive can
not be foretold, But it is certain
that each feature Of the very
abundant program deserves a
place at the top. Hence. in order
that this review may be unbiased;
let as take the units as they are
given on the program.
No. 1.-The Rialto Orchestra's
presentation of Gounod's ave
Maria" most beautifully rendered
by Director Guterson, accom-
panied by five vioIins.
No. 2-International News reel.
bits of exciting events from here

No. 3-Miss Velnaa Sutton,
coloratura soprano. in two very
well rendered vocal numbers.
No. 4-"The Age Of Innocence"
a photo-adaption of Edith Whar-
toms Pulitzer prize story. portray
ed by a cast composed Of Beverly
Bayne, Elliot Dexter, Edith Ro-
berts, Willard Louis and Stuart
Holmes. Just when the innocent
age occurs is not yet clear, but
it is evident that all principles Of
that age ere smashed when a
Russian countess enters certain
circle Of New York society, forms
the third side to a very perfect
triangle and nearly disrupts two
unsuspecting lives. Nearly, we
said; 1t does end happily. AS
Countess Oienska. Beverly Bayne
easily retains that charm and
fascination as of the past. A
rather ordinary picture, but well
done.
No. 5-"Greater than Marriage,
flor some unknown reason re-
rIa:ned this) from Louis Joseph
Vance's novel Joan Thursday"
lends itself most easily to a screen
production. This is the story of
a girl whose dream Of a stage
career came true. and Of a man,
whose patterned ideals of woman
hood became sadly torn to pieces
and reconstructed by the sacrifice
and truth of this girl. Marjorie
Daw is splendid as the girl Joan.
and Lou Tellegen heads an excel
lent supporting cast. Good act
ing and couple Of thrills add
much to the interest of this story
Of Broadway, which is by no
means the least portion Of the
bill. e. L. p.

"Baby Blue"

The attraction at Polls for
the week of April IL will be q
new musical comedy, Baby Blue"
The story has to do with the
fast set of the modern day
and many complications arise
during the play to bring about
amusing situations.
Hal Christy has furnished some
snappy tunes and catchy mel
odies-among these being "If
You Could Only Care" Sands
of Sandoray," "I'm Sittin's On
the World When I'm Sittin's On
My Sweetie's Knee" 1.-THE More

willingness to play the political
game as those higher up dictated.
The disappearance Of the sheriff
who was known to be hostile to
the political ring leads to q series
of amazing adventures in which
the girl and professor find them,
selves the chief participants.
Nevertheless, the enterpr1s1ng
editress finds time to promote

productive of many laughs anu
results in an unexpected dramatic
denouement. Nor is the pro
lessor idle either. 1t doesn't
take him long to come out of his
academic SHE'LL, pull himself to-
getfler and fall in love with his
feminine leader.
Director Crosland has done a
workmanlike job with this photo
play. The staging Is all that
it should be and the photography
is. excellent. The featured play
ers in particular-Lofs Wilson,
Noah Beery, Raymond Hatton
and Raymond McKee-are worthy
of honorable mention.
A hilarious new comedy, Tons

ton, while the Pathe news pic

orchestral establishment are
other features.

ssThe Way of a Girl''

What is the way of a girl? Is
it to act the muleish-obstinate
female in the face of all obstacles
and restrictions? Is it to develop
a thrill out of the everyday hap
peninCs of an ordinary human
being? Or1is it to call upon the
stronger sex for help in the final
test? He who seeks an answer
to these queries will find IT this
week at Loew's Columbia, an
swered in very novel manner
through the medium Of the fea.
ture picture, called, The Way: OF
& daughter of wealth becomes
engaged to "a man who would
train her as he would az horse,
and resenting this, the girl sets
out to show her trainer thing
or two. Or, in other words, to
have her own way. There! It's
out! The way of girl Is to
have her own way! And what
happened to this particular girl
as a result of her way is the
story. She attends prize tlgnts
out OF spite, spends a night In
jail Tor speeding, anu AA1H~1J o.
over the side of a mountain in
her machine, into a raging river,
and floats calmly to the cave of
two escaped convicts,| murderers.
Interesting? Indeed it is, with
plenty of thrills, a landslide,
fights, etc.. and a final rescue by
the hero Of course. All of which
shows how much this poor female
had to go through before sub
hitting her way to a straight
Jacket. But it isn't all such
tragedy. There is a lot OF good
comedy, and one is bound to
like the unique way Of telling the
story.
Eleanor Boardman is the fea.
tured one, the girl in this case,
and is all that can be desired,
in spite of her way. Somehow,
we don't blame her for the things
she does. Owen Moore tries to
tame her, and succeeds only after
changing. his methods. Well d.
rected and interesting, which Is
the all import.
A comedy, International News

rush Of '76 by the farmers of the

the old West of fifty years ago.
Throughout the plains of the

roamed at will. Then, in the
spring of 1876, news spread that
the hides were bringing as much
as three dollars each in the East.
Immediately there was a. rush.
Persons from all over the country
and from all walks Of life started
for the buffalo fields. Perhaps the
greatest influx was from Illinois,
Indiana, and Ohio.
The picture is packed with
thrilling incidents and action.
Two Of the mighty scenes in the
production show a terrific battle
between 500 Indians and a hand
full Of white men, and a mad
stampede of 1000 fear-crazed
