AT THE RIAL’IO.
Tom Mix in “The Rainbow Trail"
today. "Desert Flower" tomorrow.
Tom Mix fans will have an oppor-
tunity to see their favorite star in
"The Beinborv Trial." for the last
time tonight at the Rialto theatre.
Thrill follows thrill from the first
title to the fadeout in this blood
tingling Zane Grey story.
Laughs legitimately lured. and
tears. too. are evidence that "The
Desert Flower," to be shown for
three days beginning tomorrow at
the Rialto theatre is made of the
stuff which makes the heart beat
faster and the cheeks glow more
brightly. it is healthy. honest corne-
rly drama. free from neuresthenia.
and presents chic Colleen Moore in
a role that will boost her following
tremendously.
All this gleaned from information
received from Hollywood and New
York. where the offering had its
first showing. It was booked by the
local management without delay on
the strength of these glowing re-
ports. and with the conviction that
anything in which Miss Moore ap-
pears is bound to have a wide ap-
peal among the patrons of the Rial-
to theatre. Lloyd Hughes is fore-
most in Miss Moore's support.
Balto‘s Race to Nome with Belle
and Gunnar Kasson is the extra.
added attraction. Remember the§
thrilling race to Nome with serumi
to save the victims from death ofi
diptheria. here is the woulerful dog 1
and his master to whom all credit
belongs. l

Raymond Griffith in “The Night‘
Club“ today and tomorrow.
ar m PALACE. !
l
Raymond Griffith. whose human
humor on the screen has made mil-
lions laugh and whose newest pic-
ture. "The Night Club." is guaran-
teed by Paramount to produce more
volumes of mirth, was "discOvered"
while playing a tragedy role.
Shortly after Raymond Griffith
went into motion pictures in 1916. a
director named Wolbert. saw the
young actor in a. tragedy role. He.
immediately sought him out and of-
fered him a job as a comedian in
L-K-O Comedies. Griffith was crush.
(d but when he was tendered a sal-
ary considerably greater than he had
been receiving. lie placed his pride
in his pocket and gave up dramatic
work. To his own surprise. he soon
people laugh.
"The Night Club." playing at the
Palace theater today and tomorrow.
is a. screen version of the stage play.
“After Five." by William de Mille.
Featured with Griffith in the cast
are Vera Reynolds. Wallace Beery
and Louise Fazenda.

well known to motion picture audi-

According to Anna. May Wong. the
Chinese woman uses a bandoline cal.

oint her wealth of night-black hair.
It is made from the wood of a. cer-
tain tree which grows in China. The
wood is flaked and soaked in water.
which releases the peculiar oily gum.
The preparation is then perfumed
and applied to the hair in its native
state. It is possible to secure the
wood from Chinese apothecaries in
the Oriental quarter of any Ameri-
can city.
