BEBE DANIELS IN NEW COMEDY—GRAND TONIGHT Those who saw Bobe Daniels, the popular Realart star, in the original Plmer (Harris - play, “Ducks and Drakes,” w1l welcome her return to the'/Grand tonight and Thursday in another play by the same author, en- titled ‘““Thel March Hare.” Itiis the story of a wealthy young hoyden, whose properly chaparoned trip from her home in Los Angeles to NéW York is somewhat complicated by her falling {in love with an un- known\ hero in the railway station, ‘her refusal to go to the home of her Jprospective hostess, and her laying @ wager that she can live for a whole week in the great city on the meagher sum of 75 cents. The Harris iingenuity in construct- ing brisk comedy situations has never heen more active than in building this swift-moving play, ahd how well Miss Daniels interprets <the role designed for her can easily be imagined by those who saw her in “Ducks and Drakes.” The vivacious little star needs no coaching when it comes to playing dashing, good-little-bad-girl roles. To add to the gaiety of the occas- jon a fine supporting cast was chosen, headed by Harry Myers of “Connectii- cut Yankee” fame, Helen Jerome Ed- @y, Sidney Bracey, Maym Kelso, Grace ‘Morse, Herbert | Sherwood, Melbourne McDowell and Frances Raymond. “Who's Your Grocer,” an educa- tional comedy in two parts will com- plete an all-comedy program. READ PAYS:$25.000 TO ENGAGE HOUSE PETERS “By Special arrangement.” These three words, the crux of an agreement between J. Parker Read, Jr., the producer and House Peters, motion picture luminary, represent to the former an expenditure of $25,000. (For Mr. Peters, as all -film-lovers know, is a star /in his own right, and wlhen he was approached by J. Parker Read, Jr., to play the role of John Culbertson in “The Leopard Woman,” in which Louise Glaum enacts the title and stellar role, he at first de- murred. Ultimately, however, the nature of the part having exerted a tremendous fasdination for the popular actor, he consentedl to play the character. The agreement whereby Peters undertook the engagement lincluded the expres- sion “*by special arrangement” and it has just become known that in addi- ition to the lure of the magnificent part ‘in Stewart Whit's novel, J. Parker Read, Jr.,-further guaranteed Peters a ibonus of $25,000 when he had completed his work iin this As- soclated Producers release. \And, so, at the Grand theater next Suniéiny, you will have the oppor- tunity of viewing two of shadow- land’s highest-paid players playing opposiite each other. Among House Peter’s latest star- ning vehicle are “Silk Husbands and Calico Wives” and Maurice Tour- nour’s production of “The Great Re- deemer.” . “WEDDING BELLS” AT THE REX THEATER AGAIN TODAY Are all motion picture audiences made up cf several different types ol persons.

This isn't the case with ‘Wedding Bells,’ for one audience no sooner picks what seems to be a sure-fire laugh than the next audience gets more amusement out of some other incident. “Wedding Bells” was adapted from Salisbury Field’s stage play of the same title. It was adapted for the screen by Zelda Crosby and directed by Chet Wpthey. Among those in the supporting cast are Harrison Ford, | Emily Chichester, Ida Darling, James Harrison, William Rosselle, Polly Van, Dallas Welford and Frank Hon- going to laugh,” said another mem- ber of the Rex theater staff. *‘The}| more you see the picture the more humor you find.” “STRANER THAN FICTION” AT | REX THEATER TEURSDAY For its feature attraction for to- morrow, the Rex theater announces the engagement of ‘‘Stronger Thnn‘ Ffction,” an Astociated First Na-| 4ional picture release, starring Kath- | arins MacDonald, and presenting the screén’s most beautiful woman in a story that abounds in strong human interest, situation cleverly seasoned| with suspense, humor and not a few thrills. It is a marked departure from the | type of stories upon which Miss' Mac- | Donald’s picture have ' been ' based.) Formerly, it seemed;. tke authors| wanted to combine fashion, sur-| roundings, luxury and everything! that suggested wealth and beauty in-| to this star's j.ctures. ‘“‘Stranger | Than Fiction' is decidedly different. | It calls for an abundance of lively aeting, and is made up of enough strongly dramatio and intense, mys-| tery situatiions to enable the story to| stand on its ‘own merits even were it deprived of the assets of Kathatine MacDonald and a remarkably capable supporting cast. Among those in the cast are Wesley Barry, freckle-faced star, who-was. loaned ' by ‘Marshall Nelilan to the Ketherine MacDonald lorganizaition for this picture; and David Winter, who 'plays the leading male role. .\s Diane Drexel, a very wealthy but even | mare democratic society girl, Kather-| line MacDonald depicts a role< that will undoubtedl§ add to her thous- ands of admirers.

Here two conceptions are shown, one of them youthful and nov- el with a picturesque hint of Spain in its short jacket and handsome -sash, the other dignified and conservative, exquisitely tailored, disdaining decora- tions and faultless in lines; fulfilling the exacting requirement of mature women. . \Women who have reached middle Jife and acquired poise, are not.amenable to nll,the whims'of fash- ion that lure their younger sisters.

The - handsowe suit at the left is made of beige-colored poiret twill. All that may be said of it is told by the camera which has not failed to pre- sent every”detail .in its-makeup.

The jacket is| lined with gray silk and opens over a vest ofysilk-like the lining. Em- broidery in self color gives the jacket a rich finish, which the skirt lives up to by means of a sash of heavy, blue satin (ribbon,” having its ends finished with the handsomest of silk fringes. ¢ iy : ‘COPYRIGHT BY WESTERN NEVSPAPER UNIOW..
