Especially imposing, it is said, are scenes in many parts of a pre- tentious gambling house where much of the action takes place. The main salon where various games are in operation, patronized by a throng of people. “Hardboiled Rose” tells the story of an aristocratic Southern gentle- | man who becomes addicted to rou- | lette, and whose consequent losses plunge his entire family into trag- edy and his secretary into jail. To save her lover, a cultured girl of the South becomes the “Hardboiled Rose” of the gambling house, and works for the clearing of the Sec- retary’s name. ¢ Myrna Loy plays the title role of “Hardboiled Rose,” heading an all-star cast which includes Wil- liam Collier, Jr, John Miljan, Gladys Brockwell, Edward Martin- del, Lucy Beaumont, Ralph Emer- son and Otto Hoffman.

P " The most delightful youthful, fun-ful farce that has come to Ju- neau for many moths is “The Four- flusher,” featuring George Lewis and Marian Nixon, which is now at the Palace Theatre. The picture exudes all the fun of youth and ambition. The story is a clever one and Universal could not have chosen a better supporting east for they promoted almost the entire roster for players from “The | Collegians” to this very gay fea- ture-length farce. Lewis, given more opportunity for straight acting in this than in “The Collegians,” proves that he is a capable trouper who can put him- ! self into any role with a rare sin- cerity. Marian Nixon, of course, is al ireat merely to gaze upon. But be- side being petite, she is also an experienced aetress and plays her part with feeling. ‘___—_———————"‘ !'

The script, based on the Raynor | Selig newspaper serial, calls for seenes in which the little shop girl, | {who has an ambition for gmnd opera, sings a number of operatic selectlons. | Director John F. McCarthy de- cided that Sally should really sing !the Jewel Song from Gounodsl |Faust, during the filming of these | scenes. Fletcher Norton, cast mem- ber and former comic opera star,| ,was detailed to stand on the side- | lines of the camera and sing with 1 |the little picture actress so she {would not falter during the rendi- ‘Mon of this difficult selection. When the time came Sally sang with such a clear soprano voice that Norton forgot to accompany her. He stood transfixed and lis- tening while Sally carried the song entirely through the scene and the camera recorded her action. “Becky” is one of the best pic- tures of the year concerning Ameri- can stage life and will be seen at the Palace Sunday and Monday. | LODE MINING CLaimM LOCA- TION NOTICES AT THE EMPIRE = Special Dinners on Sundays and' Week Days Soda Fountain in connection Come in and listen to-the radio MARY YOUNG, Prop.

THE FIRST COMMERCIAL Incandescent LA was considered one of the mavrels of the age. It sold for $1.25, was rated at 16 candle power and the average amount of light it gave i throughout its life was about 65 per cent of ] its initial light. The present average lamp costs 20 cents, is rated at 69 candle power, the average amount of light it gives throughout its life is 93 per cent of its initial volume of light and it con- sumes 40 per cent less current. Roughly speaking, five times the amount of light can be obtained today for about 20 per cent of the cost in the early days. This is one of the returns for the money and time spent in electrical research since the day the first commercial incandescent lamp was born. Alaska Electric nght & Power Co.
