It will continue the remainder of the week. In this picture Captain Nun- gesser performs some of the most daring feats ever recorded by a movie camera. Tonight concludes the Lyceum’s presentation of “Vanity,” in which I.catrice Joy and Charles Ray share leading honors, and “His Rise to Fame,” in which George Walsh, in the role of a prize fighter, adds| new laurels to his physical prowess. The news reels, showing world events of note, and the talking mov- | fe vaudeville featuring Billy Hig- | gins and his “Black Town Pre'\ch-‘ or” colored monologue, the gavotte | dancers and Joseph Terimini with bis variety of string instruments | conclude the program. POLA NEGRI AT PALACE | Everyone whose heart is stirred by the spirit of romance and intrigue | will find lavish fare in Pola \(-gnsb new Paramount starring picture, | “The Crown of Lies,” which will be shown at the Palace tomorrow. The | picture fs essentially a glowing romance in which a husky voung American flivver salesman lays siege to her heart. And finally, under dramatic conditions, she capitulates, knowing that she loves him above all else. The second feature will follow with Al Hoxie in “Lost Trail.” If vou like vour “fillums” made with action and plenty of it, and hard riding cowboys, a big limbed, fear- ' less hero and a deep eyed and black | hearted villain, then you will get a real kick out of the “Lost Trail.” PARSONS’ So real and so comprehe: was the action staged for the big war scenes filmed for “What Price | Glory?" now showing at Parsons’| theater twice dajly, +2:30 and 8:30 p. m., that an elaborate system of the orders of Raoul Walsh, the director, were to have been given to the actors was wrecked after the first 15 minutes of battle. Plans which had been worked out weeks ahead of time called for Walsh to use a magna- ' vox system and whistles. In this manner it was planned to pass his orders to every part of the battle- fleld, so that all troop movements would be under his control. © Soon | aftcr he called “camera,” however, | the din from the batterles of ar- tillery and the rifie and machine gun fire made both magnavox and whistles useless. ARROW SOCIAL DANCE The Arrow Social club's dance in ' the Tabs' spaclous ballroom, Friday ening of this week, will afford an opportunity to dance lovers to en- | joy several hours' indulgence in this very healthful pastime to the strains of a varied program of numbers | especially arranged by Olcott's Bac- chanalian orchestra with a view to “adding to its popularity at social at- fairs.
