The San Fernando Valley said to/ resemble the space about the Plaza in Los Angeles during the above per- jod, was carefully selected for the purpose of duplicating the old city. i — “BEWARE OF THE BRIDE” AT REX BEGINING TODAY «Beware of the Bride”, a Wil- liam Fox production starring Eileen Percy, will be seen at the Rex the- atre for two days beginning today. The combination of a™¢lever comedi- enne, a master of the art of writing farce comedy (to wit, Edgar Frank-| 1in), and the direction by Howard M. Mitchell, who guided *“The Husband Hunter,” Migs Percy’s latest success, should insure an immensely pleasing picture. Miss Percy’s supporting cast con- tains such capable players in the world of screened fun as Walter Mc- Grail, Hallam Cooley, Harry Dunk- inson, Jane Miller, Ethel Shannon, and George ‘W. Banta. The comedy situations are said to be of an unusually hilarious nature, and take place chieflly in the apart- ments of two sets of newly weds and| of a wealthy young bachelor, a form- er admirer of one of the brides. A masquerade ball, a suit of armor, a crabbed uncle, a scandal gossiping cousin and a young husband who is called away by hig firm in the midst of his honeymoon provide the laughs —which come thick and fast without offense. ) “THE SON OF TARZAN" AT REX THEATRE THURSDAY A highly trained ape upset all trained animal precedents during the filming of “The Son of ‘Tarzan’’ chap- ter-photoplay, which comes to the Rex theatre Thursday, for two days only. B This giant anthropoid, <aid to be one of the most intelligent apes ever captured in the African jungles, as- tonishes his trainer and those watch- ing the photographing of one of the scenes of the serial by leaping upon the driver's seat of an automooile parked near one of the “sets” and driving off. After a short chase the ape was recaptured. How the ape learned to drive an automobile was a mystery until it developed that the big monkey had been taken riding several times and allowed to sit on the front seat with the driver, all the time watching the motions of the chauffeur as he guid- ed the car along the highway, It is still a mystery to the trainer how the ape sensed what lever to press to start the car. FAMOUS MONKEY COMEDIAN AT GRAND LAST TIME TONIGHT Joe Martin, the almost human monkey comedian, appears for the last time tonight, in “Monkey Stuft” at the Grand theatre. So intelligent that he seems almost human. Joe's grotesque's maneuvers. in connection with other animal antics makes “Monkey Stuff”” one of the funniest of his comedies. Frank Mayo, the man’s man of many-an outdoor story, also appears in “The Red Lane,” & picturization of Holman Day's story of the same name. 7he locale of the story is on the borderland between Canada and Maine, wher® smugglers and lumbermen of all classes mix up _lie in general. VAUDEVILLE ACTS TO BE IN BEMIDJI TWO DAYS THIS WEEK This week Friday and Saturday, with the usual matinees and evening shows, the regular four act vaude- ville program showing regularly at the Grand theatre, will be shown two days, Friday and Saturday, instead of only Friday as has‘been in the past. So rapidly have the crowds in- creased, that it was deemcd advis- able by -the management to play the shows two, days in plac: of one. The. bill this week consists of a pair of Irish ~“entertainers, “Rita Winter;and Co.” whobe songs, dances and diversions offer a purely Irish at- mosphere to the act. Ramsey and Stone in a ‘“Cabaret De Luxe” wiil ~ make you think of the old Jays when the cabaret was in its prime. 'Billy ‘Mann (blackface comedian) is known as the Minstrel Man, the sort of en- terfainment always acceptable, and the bill closes with ““The Karuzos™ in a distinct novelty.

Mr. Roberts gets the last ounce of ‘meat’” from this very lovable part. Sylvia WAshton is excellent as usual in the role of a rich vulgarian. Har- old Goodwin makes an attractively youthfyl college lover. In the role of Horace Weatherburn, the father, Mil- ton Sills upholds his reputation as one of the best and ‘most versatile players in filmdom. The smooth and faultless flow of the story makes the direction of Paul Powell particularly deserving of man= tion. He shows in the production ihe same caréful technique exhibited in a score of famous films. rie Dix prepared an excellent scenario from the P‘lnnro play. A A AR AAAAAAAAAA A AANANANANS POULTRY CULTURE IN RUSSIA The Russtan Agricultural Corre- spondent School of Urbana, IIl., has recently announced a course in poul- try tarming. The school, which is the first Rus- sian institute of its kind, was es- tablished by ‘M. I. Wolkoff, who came here from Russia as a laborer 10 years’® ago. After graduating from Michigan State Agricultural College, he worked for some time in govern- ment stations, specializing in the chemistry of soils, and is now an in- structor in the University of Illinols. The school conducts courses in the Russian language, at a nominal sum, and its large enrollment illustrates the interest of Russiah immigrants, most of whom were born farmers, in American Agricultural methods.
