Wollscc Reid whose recent death
brought sadness to millions of mo-
tion picture admirers won his great-
est popularity in comedy roles and
he never played a. funnier part than
its the role' of “Clnrence” from the
play created by Booth Tarkington. It
is not surprising then that the com-
ing or this picture to Nor-walk should
have occasioned interest beyond that
ordinarily found even in super pic-
tures and it indications means any-

public demand for improvement of

with instant favor. because it is

stars with Wally in this special pro~

PALACE TODAY

 

Alice Brady Plays Dead in Production
Adapicd from Jack Boyle's
Popular Stories

Jack Boyle. well known fiction
writer. gave the public two splendid
stories—"A Problem in Grand Lar-
ceny" and “An Answer in Grand
Larceny." Now Paramount has com—
bined the two into one or the most
charming screen plays that has ever
been mudc. “Missing Millions" is
the title of the release starring Alicu
Brady and it is being presented, ot
the Palace Theatre today and to-
morrow. This is a new picture that
has won a great deal of favor on
Broadway and it is regarded as the
best starring vehicle in which Alice
Brady has ever been cast. David
Powell is supporting Miss Brady u
Boston Biackis and the combination
of stars is excellent. oThe picture can-
not help but please Norwalk patrons
of the screen. .

 

 

ARE You“ IN “TROUBLE?"

Possibly You Hod Better See Jackie
Coogan oi the Riolto and Forget It.

When you see Jackie Coosan in
"Trouble" at the Rialto Theatre, to-
day, tomorrow, \Vedncsdny or Thurs-
day, you will gaze on "the kid" in
the finest dramatic story he has had
since the memorable picture in which
he made his debut with Charlie Chop-
lln.

"Trouble" is a fine mixture oi
pathos and commiy, with the later
vicmfiut prmlmninuiiug. and the boy
slur is llm pivot of virtually every
scenc’. lie plays: the part of an or-
phan udoplcd into the homcot a
nc'cr-do—wcll plumber and one of the
funniest scenes is when .Tsrklmpmch
hitting for the lazy foster father.
floods a mansion in an effort to fix a
lcak. Later. in a tense court trial.
the child gives the finest piece of act-
ing any star of his years over con.
tributed to the scrccn.

 

 

Good illanners

 

Guests arriving at a public dance
should greet the patroncsses with
a friendly smile and a. word or
two. on at a. private affair. but it
is not required that they should
oi'fer their hands to be shaken'un-
less the patron'esses take the ini-
tiative. The guests may stay for
a. dance or two, or for the eve-
ning, as they please. On leaving.
it is unnecessary for them to seek
out the patronesseo to soy goodby.

BABY PEGGY.

Bob: Peary.
kid turned 1003:: before the camera.
She is an accomplished actress. She is
as prodigious as Jackie Coogan.

Jackie Coogan's age is‘ twice that
of Baby'Pesgy. He is only eight but
already he has played Oliver Twist.
One wonders it Baby Peggy will ‘be
so matured in the art or the cinema at
that use that she will undertake Jul-
lot. or Carmen.

However. there is a long stretch be-
tween Baby chgy's present station
and the heights acliicvcd by Jackie
Cbogan. ‘L'nlcss she is nourished
more meticulously than she now is she
will wither‘ln the budding.

.‘tht Baby Peggy needs is more
finesse in direction. In her currdnl
pictures only the comic side of her is
seen. A child whith is consistently
and continually funny is likely to be
regarded as a. smart. 11114141

Jackie Caoguu made an immediate

because he supplied rho‘pat‘hct‘i't: cits-
meat or that comedy. His father and

mother. in lhc-ir yours ot‘ contact with
the public. gained a curtain acumen in
