REX THEATRE TOMORROW {'How, a pretty New York shop girl aspires to get an intimate view of real society life, how circumstances oonspire.in her favor and make her the central figure in a ‘week-end party - ‘at the home of the leader of the fash- fqnable younger set, and how her il- % lmns are shattered until she is glad to return to her modest home apd her humble sweetheart are amus- ingly set forth in the newest Univer- eal feature, “The Triflers,” which Will will be shown at the Rex the- .atre Tuesday. The featured players in the produc-, ' tion are Edith Roberts and David ‘Butler,” whose work during the past .year has placed them in the: stellar class. Forrest Stanley, Nell. Craig, Frederick Vroom, Lill Katherine Kirkham, Cl Arthur Shirley, Olita Ot ny, Arthur Hoyt, Magd .little Benny <Alexander :a d° ‘other Universal favorites in the cast. An interesting question is raised by an unfaithful wife in “The ‘Woman Gives,” starring Norma Talmadge, as to whether religion has lost its grip through a rigid condemnation. . of those who have not followed its pre- cepts. Miss Talmadge, playing the part of Inga Sondeson, goes to the wife to get her to join in an effort to save her husband from a life of dissipation. Inga’s appeal to her sense: of righteousness brings the re- tort from the wife that she wants to spend the hearafter with her friends. This is one of the many dnmatlcl situations which go to make up the story - unfolded in “The ‘Woman Gives,”, which will-be the attraction at the Rex theatre, beginning Wed- nesday. MACK SENNETT PRESENTS A-NEW TYPE OF COMEDY Yesterday’s preséentation of ‘Mack Sennett’s five-reel super-production “Down on the Farm,” revealed to big audiences at the Rex theatre the fact that it is still possible to produce something new in pictures. The claim made by United Artists in the prelim- inafy announcements of ‘“Down on the Farm” that in 1t would be found something “different” has been vindi- cated in a presentment unusual in| many ways and unique in treatment The novelty of “Down on the Farm” rises from a blend of various elements each of them individually popular and appealing but never . before -) mingled in the same picture play. It remained for Mack Sennett to bring satire to bear on melodrama and yet preserve for melodrama its distinctive features of thrill, suspense and au- thentic comedy. . He, “‘kids”’ .melodra= ma and at the Bame time presents, it for_its face value.- Everybody i pleased. The production mighl be terniW:dnathematically a. thrill di vided by laughter minus anything; unmholegome and plus engaging tra- vesty.- . The plot is presented at the earliest possible moment,” for”'it" begins when the sun comes peeping over the hills invited to that..customary by the trumpeting rooster. Everybody is awake including the romantic farm- hand and the object of his young af- fection. Also is awake-the village ‘banker who is a typical blend of hum- or and travesty partaking the pature of Turk and Scot, Don Juan and Shy- lock. His first adventure is at the home of a humble villager whose hasty breakfast. has been left in fa- vor of the day’s toil and whose wife. the beautiful Marie Prevost, is at the | wrong! 99 CHORUS IS FE:!"I'UBE One.of the essential things in musi- cal comedy is;the chorus;and Jimmie Hodges who' will present his new 1920 version of “Pretty Baby” at the Grand theatre tomorrow is very proud of his Dixie chorus with the big musical show. y Many musical comedy producers amention in every form of advertis- ing their so-called ‘‘Broadway chor- us,” but not with Jimmie Hodges. He claims there are just as good look- |ing girls in the smaller towns and the country and ' with the proper training they are just as nimble in the dances, and their voices are just as sweet in song. ~After several sea- sons with temperamental New York chorus ladies, ‘ne -decided ;he’ would produce his own chorus, and he was an amateur when starting with this show, but with'care and patience has now a chorus that is the talk of mu- sical producers. ile looked first for youth because the younger genera- tion are more easily taught the in- tricate dancing steps. Only. tnose pos- sessing good looks were taken, and is the best- trained chorus in the field of musical comedy. “APRIL FOLLY” UNIQUE “April Folly,” Marion Davies’ lat. est Cosmopolitan Productions starring vehicle, which is vei..g shown last times tonight at the Elko theatre, is an ingenious example of clever plot construction. It is a story within a story. Marion Davies, as the heroine has written an unusual story for & magazine. She starts to read-it to the editor, and the events in the tale are. unfoldea before .the audjence’s eyes on the screen, with the pretty writer as:the chief character, the publisher as the hero, and theeditor as the villain. 5 ; - “April Folly’’ waa: adapted, from Cyntliia Stockley's, fhmous magazine story .of the same name. It tells the story. of a thrilling pyrsuit for a not- ed diamond and of a pretty girl who was not quite what she seemed. Con- way Tearle is the leading man. Al St John's new two-part com- edy, “‘Speed” another unique, enter- taining number, is also on tonight’s Elko theatre program. i SPECIAL DRAMA—SPECIAL MUSIC A photodrama of exceptional dram- atic strength, “The Flame of the Des- est,” released by Goldwyn as a special production, with Geraldine KFarrar and Eou Tellegen in the leading roles, is to be shown at the l.ao theatre tomorrow, and Wednesday matinee and evening. g “The Flame of “the Desert’” is a powerful love story of mystic Egypt, filled with.the color and romance of the sand swept far east—a magnifi- cant spectacle, superbly staged, with two. of . the most -capable dramatic artists of~’the’ diy ‘im the " ledding Special niusic for this éxceptional attraction will be played each even- ing by the well known Elko orchestra, which in itself is an attraction. “THE WOMAN IN ROOM 13” LAST TIMES—GRAND TONIGHT From" the luxurious apartment of Dick Turner 4 Mmuffled shot was heard!
