No. Main Street pnosr: ans AT THE THEATRES AT THE RIALTO Just as a little hit of the good mea- sure that. the public always gets at the Rialto theatre tomorrow. three big features will be shown. First. is the inimitable Charles Ray in “Deuce of Spades." Then there is Round Six of “Fighting Blood.” And last. but not ltast is Harold Lloyd in "Dr. Jack." “The Voice From the Minaret." Norma. Tillmadge's latest picture for First National release. which will show at the Rialto theatre todav. is noteworthy for its unique variety of settings. The story from the pen of Robert Hirhcns c0\ers considerable ground. and Director Frank Lloyd was compelled to reproduce far-oi! scenes on the studio lot iii Loo An- eles. The story opens in Bombay. India: proceeds through the Suez Canal to Port Said; then to Damascus. back ..-éN-awaflfi- .s-.. - - -’ to Bombay. from there to London an dnnally has iinis written to its exotic pages in Damascus again. In order to secure realiun. it was neeemary ior Mr. Lloyd to conduct extensive research into the ‘customs. raiment and living conditions in those parts or the globe. However. he did not have to do all the actual work. tor in the dim capital there are gathered “experts" who are ac- quainted with all sections or the world and can be relied on to give advice to motion picture prod-deem along their special lines. Eugene O'Brien heads the support- ing cast in this production. Report Seasonal Slump' in Brick Trade The slump in building. which near- ly everybody was talking about and a few agencies were rooting for. is ap- parent lathe report of the common brick manufacturers of the country this month. but has not reached seri- ous proportions. The gross orders on the books thir- ty daysago amounted to “8.691.000. while the orders reported in the cur- rent issue are 895,447,000. The pro- duction 0! new brick for the month totaled 128.942.0th and there was moved from the plants 116,701,000. This leaves the quantity of burned and unburned brick in the plants ap- proximately the same as a month ago. The falling of! in new business is most apparent in some or the centers that have been the busiest during preceding months. in New York. Cleveland. Detroit. Chicago. and ev en in Southern California districts. man- ufacturers. while well stocked with old orders and running at full capacity. have reported that the volume 0: new business coming into the office has been considerably reduced the preced- ing month. On the other hand. some important plants say that while they were pessimistic thirty days ago they are again optimistic. The condition is generally viewed as seasonal and while all admit that it is possible that the lhst six months of 1923 will not pile up a volume in new construc- tion equal to the first. six months. this still will be a banner year. In the larger cities there is no surplus of housing. There is an extreme short- age of schools and hospitals and oth- er public buildings. The only price change during the past months was a downward trend in some of the highest markets. In New England the highest price re- ported in current reports was $21 which is 82 below the. high water mark of the month previous. The composite price of brick. taking all reports into ' considgration, is 814.65 per M. ...
