Now’ comes its successor, “Diane of Star Hollow” by the same producers, with the same O. L. Sellers direction, LLOYD'S SMILAGE With every ticket sold at the Grand there is a guaranteed smilage of three thousand feet of high-powered fun of the Harold Lloyd brand. “Now or Never” is the title of the laughter special, which pictures the adventures of a youth, a maid, a little girl and other travelers in a Pullman train. May Bilson the child, and the passen: gers are the susal Rolin comedians. “WHAT EVERY WOMAN KNOWS"’ AT ELKO, STARTING TONIGHT William DeMille has broken motion picture traditions ior perhaps the first time in the history of the screen, by making his latest Paramount pro: ngrd Durning, which is to be exhibited by special booking arrangements at the Rex theater.
