TIE u Editor Of The Times
ri ERBERT QUICK, in his re-
Hal cent letter. quotes the opin-
10y ions of two men of high
standing in medical science who
qnestipn whether it is best for the
human race to have. rules Of health
promulgated and thus prolong lives
of the weaklings, or whether it is
best to let nature take it's course and
give an advantage for the physically
strong and healthy to ultimately
predominant.
ofsthe two doctors he says, ssThese
men are among the greatest men in
the world In health lore, and. they
are old me with wisdom-which Is
9 very different thing from SKIN or
knowledge"
Further on he accuses old men OF
being r~ecattonary, etc, and SAYS,
The curse of tbs world is the do
minion, of men past so" I wonder il
the two old men with wisdom are
past 51'r

PARAMOUNT To
HAVE EIGHTH
CELEBRATION

The power of newspaper advertis-
ing as revealed by the fact that $500
newspapers, daily and weekly, serve as
the first line trench as the Famous
Players.Lasky Corporation tells the
world about the eighth annual Para
mount Week, September 6-13.
More than 100000 was loaded into
its big advertising guns that were
fired simultaneously on the first day
of the week, one of the largest sums
ever spent by any organization in
American newspapers in single
day.
In the background, as a sort of re-
serve, will be the advertising guns
trained on weekly and monthly maya
zines.
Coming as it does in conjunction
with the Inauguration of the Greater
Movie Season, Paramount Week will
be given added impetus this year. Ex-
hibitors are looking forward to its ad-
vent because in the past it has proved
a week of unusually good business
and has attracted thousands to the
theaters who do not attend regularly.
The record of the twelve months
prior to thus years Paramount Week
are impressive. To the film world
Paramount gave such gems as The
Covered Wagon. THE Golden Bed
LAUNDERING Herds" THE Ten Com
mandments," "Manhandled," mon
sieur Beaucaire," Feet of Clay"
"Merton of the Movies" North Of
Sc" Peter PAN" THE Goose Hangs
High" and Madame Sans Gene"
That was n difficult record to even
equal. And yet Paramount, by mobi-
lizing all its resources, by buying the
best literature for screen purposes, by
signing up the most noted authors, by
employing the leading artists, has not
only tied the last years output. but
has gone beyond it, as a review of the
releases that are TO come shows
clearly.
d. W. Griffith, the noted director,
has become affiliated with Paramount
and his first picture will be That
Royle Girl" from the well known
Harold Lloyd's pictures will be
henceforth released by Paramount.
Douglas MacLedn's pictures will be
released by Paramount.
Among other pictures the country
will see are "Beggar on Horseback, :"
directed by James Cruze; THE Van
ishing American" an epic of the Red
Man; "The Pony Express" another
Cruze production, about which Vice
President Dawes was so enthusiastic
when he saw some of it being filmed
that he suggested showing it to Presi-
dent Coolidge when completed.
, Gloria Swanson will be seen in "The
Coast of Folly" and "Stage Struck. "
Thomas Meighan will be seen in THE
Man Who Found HIMSELF" and a
picture made in Ireland.
Pola Negri will be seen in Joseph
Hergesheimer's Flower of Night, 4"
and other notable pictures.
Betty Bronson will duplicate her

PROGRAM
Star Is Featured in LATE
Play, ''Wild, Wild
Susan."

As a fitting attraction for the eighth
annual Paramount week program, the
Princess this week offers Bebe Dam
icls in wild, Wild Susan" Rod La
ROGUE heads the supporting cast.
Susan Van Dusen, "affectionately'
known as wild, Wild Susan" by her
intimates, is, in every sense Of the
word, n holy terror. Just to give an
idea of what Susan is really like: Her
righteous brother Edgar, certain that
the girls laundering for adventure will
bring about an early and violent end,
invests heavily in an insurance policy
on her life, naming himself as bene-
ficiary. He and his little sweetheart
expect a rich return as the result OF
Susan's recklessness. The events that
follow 60 to prove his poor Judgment
as investor.
Rod La ROGUE plays the role of
Tod Waterbury, an equally wild
youngster, who has turned to driving
taxi as a means of gathering ma
terial for literary career.
The fun starts when Tod and Susan
meet and get their heads together dop-
ing out new fields Of adventure. SUI
san, escaping by a hairs breadth a
fatal trip abroad with a friend OF
her father and his flop" son, comes
upon the butler in their home devour-
ing a correspondence school volume on
how to be detective. Here's one
angle of the thrill game that Susan
has never touched on, so off she goes
with the book, reads it through and
presents herself to the chief Of the To-
cal detective bureau and asks when
do l begin?"
Susan starts her career as a fem
mime Sherlock by collaring a pair OF
shoplifters and then, in company with
Tod, gets into more Jams" than they
can get out of, with Tod doing most
of the "squaring."

Gloria Swanson Starred in
Picture Depicting Life
of the Rich.

For Paramount Week" the Empire
presents the outstanding production
OF Paramount's "Greater Forty"
namely "The Coast of Folly" Gloria
Swanson's dressiest and best acting
picture to date. In This production the
star, as mother and daughter, gives
the most finished and convincing per-
Torrance that she has ever offered.
"The Coast of Folly" begins 20
years ago when divorces and motor
cars were just beginning to become
popular. Nadine Gathaway, played by
Gloria Swanson, then young, gay.
beautiful and tempestuous, becomes
aroused by the narrowness and rigid
ity of her stodgy, middle aged mil.
lionaire husband, deserving him and
their baby daughter Joyce.
The scene shifts. Twenty years
later: Joyce Gathaway, also played by
Miss Swanson, has come into the
prime of her young womanhood with
the heritage Of her mothers misstep.
Nevertheless she is the pot and leader
OF the younger set at Palm Beach,
the celebrated "coast of folly"
Joyce becomes involved in situa-
ton with a married man, the scandal
mongcrs seize upon the friendship of
the two and interpret it as they see
fit. Larry's wife makes the affair
odious, cleverly arranging matters so
the case is blazoned to the world in
newspaper headlines. Thus Nadine,
-, De- -.
she is the Countess de Tauro. learns
OF her daughters predicament and
rushes to her defense. How the situa-
ton is saved for all concerned through
the strange action of the countess
forms most interesting story. d,

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. S. - As
a sailor, George B. Porter was famil-
iar with the popular idea that sailors
had sweethearts in every port.
But month after his marriage,
Porter discovered that his wife had
reversed the usual order of things and
had gathered a collection of husbands
in more ports than he could conven.

And now. judge, she's gone to Cuba
with another sailor" was the test
that clinched the annulment Of his
marriage.

DON FELICE BACK
AFTER VACATION

Patrons of the Palace will welcome
the return of Don Felice, who again
takes the baton over the Palace must
clans this week. Fclice has made the
most of a vacation in the East and
will place a new idea in the way Of
prologucs on the stage in connection
with the showing Of "The Lost
World"
"In the Garden OF Love" is a novel
stage offering, consisting Of a COM
bination song and dance quartette.
Terry Terhurne and Miss Jessie Ed
wards have been engaged to do one
of the latest waltz creations, while
Charles Klump and Miss Mary Kroe-
ger accompany them with the we'll
known vocal number Let Me Call You
Sweetheart"
Don Fclice has been in the pit ever
since his return preparing the musical
score for "The Lost World" This pro-
duction is so different from anything
that has ever before been shown in
pictures that 1t requires more than
the average amount of attention in per-
fecting the musical accompaniment.
However, Felice assures that every
situation of the almost unbelievable
film will be properly stressed from a
musical standpoint which should add
materially to the enjoyment of the au-
dicncc.
The overture selected for the current
week is to be Wallace's most favored
composition "Maritana. The fox trot
has been revised by Don Felice and
the many novelty effects that make
the number so pleasing have been in
serted. Were Gonna Have Weather,
Whether or Not" has been selected for
this place on the Palace musical pro-

Today's Aid TO Beauty

We have found that in washing
the hair IL is never wise To use a
makeshift. but is always advisable
10 use a preparation made for sham
pooling only. Many OF our friends
say they get the best results from
a simple homemade canthrox mix
ture. You can use this at n cost
OF about three cents a shampoo by
getting some canthrox from your
druggist and dissolving a teaspoon
full in cup OF hot water. This
makes enough shampoo liquid TO
apply to all the hair instead OF just
the top OF the head. as with most
preparations. Dandruff. excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear in the rinsing water. Your
hair will be SO fluffy that it will
look much heavier than It is. Its
luster and softness will also de-
light you.
Your druggist can supply you and
the low cost-scarcely three cents
a shampoo-is almost unbelievable.
