THOMPS0NS STORY AT THE PALACE
Buck Jones Also Listed at Popu.
 lar Movie House

The new popular price policy in- stituted at the Palace last week is proving very successful. The low prices of admission, ten and fifteen cents in the afternoon and fifteen and twenty y-five cents at night are very much appreciated by local movie goers, especially so because the grade of entertainment being shown at the new prices is the same as that which had been shown previously at higher prices of admission.
 The program for the first three days of the week starting tomorrow consists of two highhly entertain features, Denman Thompson's Sunshine of Paradise Alley" and Buck Jones in ''Desert Valley"
 From the reports received from the New York presentation of Sunshine of Paradise Alley" 1t is 8 comedy of merit. Set in the most interesting locale of New York's East Side. 1t is swiftly moving story of the life problems of the alien peoples, who are huddled to- gether in the slums.
 The Irish policeman, the Jewish clothier. the Italian fruit peddler and little Sunshine O'Day the friend and champion of all, are in teresting folk, whom we all know and love though 1t is true We have seen them on the screen all too infrequently. The director has told his story with splendid under standing, directly and forcefully without resorting to stage heroics or diverting the plot to force a point Natural, unforced humor, well conceived and well interpreted by the players make this picture the merriest photoplay in long time.
 The pathos of Paradise Alley" the heart rending struggle of Sun shine to overcome the almost in surmountable obstacles in her path will move the most cynical. You feel for Sunshine and you will cry with her. But her spirit will reach out tO yOu lIOllI llC 0liNC VI oiVSt' and you will soon again laugh with her as she gayly laughs at her own shortcomings.
 The champion feature on this program is Buck Jones in Desert Valley" a splendid western picture pulsing with drama, action and roaring comedy. "Desert Valley was filmed amid scenes of rare beauty among the fantastic forma- tions of the canyons of the Mo- dave valley.
 Comedy, thrills and suspense abound in this fine picture whose story deals with the disputes of cattlemen over water rights. Buck plays the part of an irresponsible cowboy who has knack for get ting into trouble over other peo> ple's troubles. Hard riding, spec tacular fighting and comedy of a rare order make this one of the best westerns seen here in some time. This is clean, wholesome picture which everybody will en- joy.
 There will be two shows Sunday night. The New Palace is open con- tinuously daily from 1:30.

During this period worked the first

from Italy thorough knowledge of
classical architecture as practiced by
Palladio and other Italian architects.
This era saw the describing of the
last lingering Gothic traditions. The

ten made into geometrical patterns
with mouldings, the arch also intro
duced in the top tier of the panels.
Ceilings are executed rather crudely
