Test For Actors
In Arcadia Film

The ability to scream loudly stood
Thelma Todd in good stead when she
was being last for the role Of hero
inc in "The Haunted House."
This First National picture, which
comes next Wednesday at midnight
to the Arcadia theater, is one long
series Of thrills and the several wom-
en- in the cast are constantly being
shocked out of all aplomb because of
the unprecedented experiences to
which they are subjected.
Thelma proved that she could
scream with the best of them and
was engaged for that as well as for
many other reasons, not the least be-
ing her talent and real beauty.
Benjamin Christensen directed the
film.
