HEAT RE

RICHMOND Twenty-five feet from Siam to Mexico! Such was the startling geographical Jump accomplished by playera in "Fool's Paradise," Cecil B. De Mille's newest -Paramount picture, which la

playing at, the Richmond theatre, ', For on the same stage at Paramount studio one found the interior of a Siamese temple with a yawning pit in Which reptiles awaited the sacrifice while but a step" away there was a colorful cantina of an oil town on the border between Mexico and the United States. V The hero is a young ex-soldier who loses his all in the oil fields. Captivated by a famous French dancer, he is blinded at one of her performances by an explosive cigar, the gift of a cantina girl. Filled with remorse, the girl nurses and comes to love the man and he is happy believing her the dancer whom she mimics. Sight restored, he is angered at the trick and flees in search of his first love. Finding her in Siam. a series of dramatic incidents prove her shallow character and brings him back to the woman ho loved him in bis misfortune. To interpret this story, written by Belilah Marie Dix and Sada Cowan, suggested by Leonard Merrick's "The Laurels and the Lady," Mr. De Mifle

secured such excellent players as Dor-

why Dalton, Mildred Harris, Conrad

Nagel, Theodore Kosloff, John Davidson and Julia Faye. The production is

Jn every respect magnificent. V i MURRAY William Christy Cabanne's "The Barricade," distributed by R-C Pictures corporation, will be screened at the Murray theatre for three days, beginning Monday. It is based upon the story of the same title from the facile pen of Dr. Daniel Carson Goodman, who has taken for his theme the theory that genuine love and human sympathy do more to beget happiness in the World than the false pride and prejudice. "The Barricade," however, is at no-'time preachy It contains a lesson, to be sure, but Mr. Cabanne, with a

perfect understanding of his subject, has developed his theme into delight-' fnV entertainment. -A1 well rounded -ast was assembled, including Kenneth ITarlan. Katberine Spencer, Dorothy Richards, William A; Strauss, Eugene Borden, James Harrison and John O'Connor. : '. . , MURRETTE V. ' For nearly' fourteen' centuries,-historians have disagreed as "to just whether or not the great Empress Theodore was a wicked woman. All agree that even ihouglv she was" a bad, bad woman, she was very good company. In the great Italian screen spectacle, "Theodora," which Goldwyn presents at the Murrette theatre starting Sunday, the famous dramatist Victorien Sardou presents a Theodora who is very much of a lady. True, the early scenes of the screen drama show her as a daughter of pleasure on the Island of Cyprus, flirting with the young prince who afterwards becomes he emperor of the Roman empire; but.,, the best historical authorities

agree that after Tneooora became a wife and an empress, she cut out the

wild follies of her early youth and ex

cept for one unfortunate love affair, which forms the basis of the big

screen drama which Goldwyn presents, Khe was an irreproachable wife and empress. According to Gibbon, the famous au

thor of "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," Theodora was rather

.- wild person. Mr. Gibbon declares that she was born in Constantinople (or Byzantium at is was then called) in the early years of the sixth century wnd died in the year 547. She was the daughter of a lion tamer in the Amphitheatre in' Constantinople, and w hile a child , was sent on the stage to earn her own living in the performances called Mimes. She had no gift for either music or dancing, but made herself notorious by the spirit and impudence of her acting in the rough farces, as one may call them, which delighted the crowd of the capital. , MURRAY VAUDEVILLE, "Indian Revelries," with a picturesque stage setting, featuring Chief Oskomon and Mile. Marion, in native nnd characteristic songs and dances, will top the new, bill at the Murray,

opening Monday matinee, for the first half. This offering is said to be decidedly out of the ordinary, and is credited with being an exceptionally entertaining feature. They have just closed a tour of the Orpheum circuit, and are filling in a few dates on their way east, as they are booked to appear shortly at the Palace, New Yorc City. Frank and Milt Brittan in "Say It With Music," are also on the bill. These boys were a big hit three year3 aro, and now they return to regale us with all the latest New York hits. Willie Missem and company also will be seen on this bill.- We can not ay if Willie will miss 'em or net, but we do know he is a real comedian, ;and that he will make you laugh.

J "We have had frivolty, politics and

poetry during the last few days," Mr. Marshall said, "and now we are getting down to bare facts. The object of this bill, as I see it, is to protect the. eyes of the old men and the morals of the young men. Incidentally we are planning to legislate modest

into the bathers themselves." I , The bill under discussion at the time J provided that it should be unlawful ; for any person to appear on public ! roads in unincorporated towns clad only in bathing suits. According to; Representative C. A. Nelson of White : Mills, a little summer resort, it i? I aimed at the bathing suits of young! women visitors. j Senator B. H. Harris, who championed the bill, in reply to a query as f to whether he thought some of the J

modern evening gowns were "as im

modest as bathing suits, replied that , perhaps they were. But there was no way, he said, to regulate the wearing : of evening dresses. . . fv "It's an awfully pitiful sight to so an old, gray-haired woman with htr skirts above her knees," he added. - Mr. Nelson appeared before the upper body in behalf of his bill and said the new law would be enforced. He said he intended to resign as representative, get appointed a deputy shej-

If you are going to put a new sleeping porch on your house, or lay a new walk, this is the time of year to do it. You may have in mind putting up a new fence, or new clothes posts in the backyard. All of these things and a hundred more can be done economically with concrete, in a minimum of time and without the necessity of calling in help from the outside. There is no reason why you cannot lay a concrete walk or drive yourself. With simple instructions you can mix the concrete in the proper proportions, build the necessary forms, and set the mixture.
