A more; delightful photoplay has not been seen here this season. The dain- ty star gave an excellent perform: ance and proved herself a comedi- enne of no insignificant powers. ‘William, Boyd, a popular Cecil B. De Mille star, featured as her leading man; shared stellar honors with Miss Joy in this admirable production. The scenes of the pictures ara laid in Oriental waters, partly aboard a schooner and in the castle of a bandit chief. There is a thrilling Chinese raid, the loot ing of a town and the abduction of the heroine -and hero by the Chinese. marauders, . The heroine, Eve Macey, the tomboy daughter of a schooner captain, portrayed by Miss Joy, is an outstanding performance. She is romantic and has a knack of tiasing up folk with her lovers’ knot which prov- ed highly enjoyable to_ the audi- ence. Mr. Boyd proved himself a real he-man in his battles with the bandits to save his little sweet heart. Walter Long as the bax dit chief was exceptionally artia. tic, -while. Robert Edeson, . Richarl Carle and = Arthur - Hoyt .were wholly adequate in their portray- als. “Bve's lapua" Jncontestlbly is a picture which one can’ see sev: eral times with genuine enjoy- ment. The titles are exceptionally witty, and apropos to the subject. P iF WARRIAGE FAILS" | | .

PALACE TOMORROW ; Just like “The Big Parade,” by the same director who thoroughly caught tae spirit of war and transferred it to the screen with its pathos, grim humor anl drama, now does “Bardelys the Magnificent,” King Vidor's latest production for Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer capture the spirit of the colorful, romantic, swashbuckling era of the middle ages, “the days of old, when knights were bold.” “Berdelys” is everything that could be desired in the way of screen entertainment. It is a spectacle picture, which means that it employs thousands of men and women, horses and vehicles, to gain its effects, but it is nol a spectacle in the sense that the humans around whom the drama revolves are never .subordinated to the mass effect, . John Gilbert, the star, is seen in a distinctly new screen char- acterization. He has the (title role of “Bardelys,” the handsonie courtier “who could win any wo- man he set his mind to” and was not above boasting of ¥ Ani just such boasting leads /| a8 wager that the fair played by | is uuacemlb] ¢ a .

Ben Eielson and Capt.| George H. Wilkins passed througn Juneau yesterday on the steame Yukon. The work of this will be carried out by the two men alone, and will start immed:- ately \upon their arrival at Poivt Barrow, Lieut. Eielson said. T exploration is in reality a con- tinuation of the work done by the| Wilking' expedition two years ago,| but different areas to be plored. “The purpose ' sald Lieut the area Barrow, in the polar regions, paratory to the ablishment meteorological stations. “When this work is completad, flar work in the areas around the North pole, it is plk ned from data obtained at stations, to forecast the weather for long periods in advance. As the situation is now, weather for only short periods can be forecast because of lack of knowledge of world wide conditions.

No wires or wing supports of any kind are used externally, giving her great- er speed because of less surface for the wind to strike upon. It is a Lockheed Vega, with a 220 H. P. Wright J-5 engine, which is capable of making 140 to 150 miles per hour, and will take off at 1100 revolutions, while the maximum revolutions are more than 1900. It has 40 miles p=r hour more speed than those uscd two years ago, Lieut. Eielson as- serted, and added that he is con- fident it will carry 3,600 pounds. For aoout three months the ex- pedition plans to remain in t{he Arctic regions, working steadil; eastward, and at the end of that time will return home via Europe. Lieut/ Eielson is one of tha pioneer Alaska aviators, has many friends throughout the entire ter- ritory, and is undoubtedly one oi the finest aviators in the entire country. For the past six months he has broatened his knowledge of planes as an inspector of ali mail pilots for the government, which position has taken him across the continent four timss and has given him an opportunity to fly in practically every type of plane made, he said.
