'TONIGHT and TUESDAY ONLY “THE BIG PARADE"” SPECIAL MUSIC BE ON TIME— 7:15 and 9:30 i Ethel e T T LT T T T T A LD LT T T TPV WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY Cecil B. De Mille Presents LEATRICE JOY n “MADE FOR LOVE” With EDMUND BURNS, Bertram Grassby Wales l||IIIIIIIIHII'IHIHIIIIIHIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIlIlIIlllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIII — s Attractions At Theatres ’(he complete score for the feature | which was ordered for this pro- duction. )"'_'WTO?:%T‘ DEVIL" | NOW AT COLISEUM | “THE BIG PARADE" | NOW AT PALACE | “The Big Parade” is ecplendid. It moves with the power anl sweep of a tide and has a grip like the undertow. It is one of those rare achievements in pic ture making that is all good and grows progressively better with each reel. “The Big Parade” is imfinitely more than a war play. It deals with humanity in war. the bitter and the sweet, the fineness -and the hellishness, the friendliness and the hate. It is utterly free from sentimentalism and, hokum, but full of sentiment. It is' so different from other war plays that there is no comparison. The picture is simply packed full of humor, of pathos, of Wi, of comedy and of drama that is profoundly moving. Renee Adorec. left crouched in the road after Jim had gome off in a motor truck, simply typifies the best of the' flce of womef. A scene in the ' shell hole where tobacco- chewing Slim spits at a target and s0 wins the chance to save his two pals from almost certain death is without heroics. The long train of trucks carrying men —always more men—to the front matched by the train of ambu-| lances returning after the “pa-| rade” is profoundly moving. John Gilbert and iff fact all in! the cast are excelent.: Audiences that crowded the Palace yester- day afl’ voted it a great picture Take a good looking young fei- low with a beautiful speed car and no money to run it with. Then add a beautiful girl and her moth er in a Ford that refuses to run. Sprinkle gingerly with speed, thrills and laughs, and you have a fair idea of Richard Dix’s new Paramount picture, “The Luci: Devil,” which opened at the Col seum Theatre yesterday. Esther Ralston plays opposi' the star in this original screen story by Byron Morgan, directed by Frank Tuttle, who made “Too Many Kisses” and “Miss Blue- beard.”’ It is the tale of a young fellow who spent the earlier part of his life dreaming of what he would do if he ever got a good car, and then when luck came his way— what he did. All the scrapes he got into, the money he was fleec- ed out of, how he was arrested once and almost a second : time, how he fell in love with a beauti- ful girl and followed her for miles and miles, how he entered his car in ‘a big auto race and won it, the money and the girl will, give you more thrills to the miun- ute than you've ever experienced before in your life. In “The Lucky Devil” Dix drives his own car every foot of the | way in the road race, the like of which has never been seen before tin pictures. Others in the cast are “Gun- {boat” Smith, Anthony Jowitt, Tom ! Findlay, Edna May Oliver, Joz | Burke and Mary Foy. and many.will see it again tonight| or tomorrow. The music was eplendid, the orchestra ' playing IF BACK HURTS FLUSH KIDNEYS Drink Plenty Water and Take of Salts Before Breakfast.

M i “MADE FOR LOVE” AT 1 j PALACE WEDNESDAY | “They're dancing the Charlestoa in Egypt! It may sound surprising, but it {isn’t. For they moved Egypt to the De Mille Studio. In “Made for Love,” made under Paul Sloane’s direction with Leatrice *Joy starring, one sequence ‘s shown at the Winter Palace at Luxor in Egypt. Americans pre- 'domhmte as the guests in this famous place, and for their bene- {fit a' group of American gir's | stage the Charleston contest, much 4o the delight of the Egyptians ipresent.
