“KING. QUEEN, JOKER” AT GRAND THEATER TONIGHT Do you remember Sydney Chaplin jn Keystone comedies? ‘Remember the laughs he provided for you? Well, . after.n_lapse of several. years, Mr. Chaplin has returned to the screen. “ this*tinte in a five-reel comedy just released by Paramount. 1t is “King, Queen and Joker,” a comedy melo- drama' written and directed by the famous comedian himself. It will be shown at the Grand theater tonight ‘and tomorrow. N . The story deals with a king whose dominion is'in the throes of a revo- dution, and a barber's assistant. The king is abducted and the harber, who resembles him amazingly, takes his place. Plenty of éhance for comedy, eh? Well, Mr. Chaplin has filled his picture with laughs and thrills and it will prove a revelation to you. Mr. Chaplin’s +leading woman is Lottie MacPherson, a beautiful and tal- ented actress. It is the “Ben Hur” of screen comedy. That strenuous out-door actor, Tom Santchi, will also appear at the Grand tonight in a two-reel drama of adventure and thrill entitled “The ‘Tempest.” “UNCHARTED SEAS” AT THE REX THEATER SUNDAY Seven Alaskan canine huskies, vet- erans of polar'expeditions and numer- ous winters in the land of the mid- night sun, were introduced into Hol- lywood’s film colony as players .in iMetro’s special production of “Un- charted Seas,”. which will be on the screen of the Rex theater Sunday. Alice, Lake, who 1is playing the stellar role in the. production, made . friends with the suppgsedly vicious malemutes, and learned to drive them | in spite of their aversion to. feminine | authority. J. H. Scott, himself a well known student of Alaskan wooderaft, took the dogs from their frozen home in the North and acted as their guar-| dian during the six months’ trip to Southern California. One of the ani- mals was with Steffanson on his Arctic expeditions. Under the guiding hand of the patient Mss Lake, the animals be-| came acclimated @and promised 'to become the least temperamental of of actors. “Uncharted Seas” is a Munsey| i magazine story from the pen of John Fleming Wilson. | For her supporting cast, Miss Lake has such notable persons as Carl Ger- ard, Rudolph Valentino, who played | in “The Four Horsemen of the Apoca- 1ypse”; Fred Turner, Charles Mailes and Rhea Haines. Wesley Ruggles directed. Photography is by Jonh B.| Seitz and art direction by John Hol- den. The scenario was writlen by | George Elwcod Jenks. “THE LAMPLIGHTER” AT REX THURSDAY 'AND FRIDAY| What is described by the producer as a “thrilling drama of a love that| wandered but was not lost” will be presented for the first time locally at the Rex. theater Thursday, being booked for a run of two days. It is entitled “The Lamplighter” and in it will appear Shirley Mason, the Wil- liam Fox star and one of the clever- est and daintiest actresses in all| . filmdom. 1t is a delightful love story, | punctuated adequately by thrills. “SALVATION NELL” AT REX LAST TIMES TONIGHT | Out of the depths of New York's Bast Side comes a secrecn t| fascinating character and z! realism. | It is the William Bennett produc- E 'NEWS OF THE THEATRES i ww | lique Francais 5 ing may cause a draught through the in an engagement at the Rex theater last night.

Carrington, Charles MacDon- ald, Matthew Betz and Marie Haynes. | The production was directed by | Keneth Webb and the scenario was| prepared by Dorothy Farnum. It is an artistic achievement, as well as a splendid story. { m&_ Lower Hudsorr Called North River. The application of the name North river to the lower part of the Hudson | dates back to the time of early Dutch seétlements in New Jersey.. North riv- er Is the historic name of the lower course of ‘the river which flows be- tween Manhattan and the Jerseys. It was north of the New Jersey settle- ments, just as the Delaware was south, and the two rivers were known to the Dutch colonists as the North river and the South river, respectively. The per- sistence of the alternate names of the river often is mentioned as one of the | local idiosyncrasies of New York city. Fleet Captured by Cavalry. In the war between’ Fratce and| Holland in 1793-1795, Pichegru led the French soldiers into Amsterdam | in mid-winter, and was met by the, citizens shouting, “Vive la Repub- ” As the Dutch fleet | was at that time ice-bound in xhe' Zuyder zee—the harbor of Amsterdam | —Pichegru surrounded it with his cavalry and forced it to surrender. | Thus was witnessed the unique spec- | tacle in war of a fleet of warships surrendering to a land force. | | Old Roman Road, land and ‘Am erica develop speed tel improvement. tracto:l, Discovery hus beep made in Lngs | land of another old Roman road hith. | erto unknown.
