which open today at the Mrand
theater, ii France, following Naio
Iron's defeat at Waterlooo, when ihe 1
eeond reiioration swept Louis
XVIII and hn court hack into a'
madder frivolity than it ever had
known. At that time the Duke de
Langraia permitted himself the in
dulgence of wagering on the stain
! faith of hi 'wile, the durhess,
portrayed by Mis Talmadge. Count
de Martay, who hoanted his ability
to win hit way to her heart before
the time of her hu.bind't departure
on a military mission, wat to filled
with shame before her nobility of
character that he acknowledged hi
wrong humbly to the duke, whlrn
aroused hit suspicious and led him
to believe the pair were throwing
dust in hi eyes. In an ensuing
quarrel with the duchtit ihe learneu
of the wager, which resulted in a
tacit end to their marriage of conve
nience. The innocent young wife, humili
ated and in despair, suffered a con
sequent change of heart and another
season found her the reigning court
beauty and coquette, with General
Armand de Montriveau at her feet
The romance that follows and the
subsequent death of the Due de
Langeait combine to make one of
the most gripping at well as colorful
photo dramas ever produced.
Tom Mix at Moon.
Starting today, the Moon theater
will show "For Big Stakes," starring
Tom Mix. Tom and his remarkable
horse, Tony, go through all the dar
ing stunts that have made them both
so well liked and remembered by
screen enthus'psts. Tom rules
through a prairie tire to save his
sweetheart and every heart in the
audience will probably beat higher
until the horse carries them both to
safety. In expert shooting and rope
throwing the sxreen never has shown
a more finished artist than Tom Mix.
I he story is described as one of
ranid action from beginning to cnoV
with threads of intense drama and
vivid romance running through it.
F.veryone with red blood should find
an abundance of good entertainment
in this photoplay. If you like out
door life and adventure, if you like
romance, "For Big Stakes" will fur
nish them.
Valentino at Rialto.
Two vastly different types of wo
men portray two different types of
affection in "Blood and Sand,
starring Rodolph Valentino at the
Rialtd" this week. Lila Lee, youth
ful and ingenuous, evinces a love (
sweet and tender, while Nita Naldt,
colorful and exotic, sweeps every
thing away wiht a volcanic, tempes
tuous rush of romance.
The love of Rodolph Valentino
for these women provides a series of
interesting sequences in the Vicente
Blasco Ibanez's story of Spanish lite
which June Mathis has specially
adapted for the screen. As Mr. Valen
tino has an international reputation
as a perfect love-niaker, the roman
tic episodes bid fair to be even more
popular than the sensational, color
ful periods laid before wild bulls in
the Madrid bull ring where "Juan
Gallardo" is a famous bull-fighter.
Lloyd a. Sun.
Harold Lloyd in "Grandma's Boy,'
which opens today at the Sun
theater, plays the part of a country
boy who was afraid. He had no
more spirit than a jack rabbit. The
other kids had knocked enough chips
off his shoulders to start a lumber
yard. As a baby he was at'raid to
call his cradle his own. At school
he wore great holes in his stockings,
where his knees shooK logciner. .m
1 he was meek, modest and retir
ing.
The boy 1 most precious posses
sion was his old-fashioned grandma.
When the szirl came into hi life, and
then a rival who was a big bully, the
boy's da were nude nmeramr.
Then came realisation of his weak-
ncss and cowardice. How he goes
out and conquers his fear, captures a
desperate criminal that ha terrorized
ihe comniuniiy, inrnr
.A Kim ihf aiil provide "Ijrand-
ma's Ho" with a real, dramatic
story and a hot f opportunities for
hilarious, situations and "g." and j
toatt great thrills.

Austrian Scenery
Affords Mecca for
Film Producers
Austria has long been noted among
tourists for its magnificent scenery
and many different types of inter
esting architecture, but not until re
cently has it made any very distinct
efforts to cater to the motion picture
industry as a producing center.
Now, however, it has come to a
sudden realization of the value of its
wonderful resources and with active
government co-operation has set
about co-ordinating and tabulating in
a most painstaking way every possi
ble piece of information that might
be of use in picture producing.
The Austrian Film service, with
headquarters in Vienna, is the name
of the official bureau that acts as a
clearing house expressly established
I to be of assistance to picture pro
ducers. Here, under the supervision
of experts in every department, are
. kept complete records of every loca
tion mat might be used to advantage
as a picture setting, together with
photographic . archives depicting
quaint and unusual buildings, archi
tectural motives, placet of historical
interest, etc., all systematically ar
ranged tor ready reterence.
The bureau through its official af
filiations is in a position' to obtain
special permits and privileges, ar
range for railroad transportation, te
cure hotel accomodations and other
wise facilitate and expedite the tak
ing of pictures.
Production has begun on "A
Daughter of Luxury," starring Ag
nes Ayres.. It was adapted from
the play, J he Imnostcr," by Beu
lah Marie Dix and is under the di
rection of Paul Powell .

GORGEOUS TO BEHOLD YET
NEVER TO BE HELD vivid to love,
yet never to be won; pure beauty asking
. only the fealty of one man, but when he
wagered on her faith as he would upon a
falcon-exotic exile to the intrigue, glamjr,
scandal of France's gayest courts. They the
playground, men the baubles of the glo
rious Duchesse of Langeais. And dimly
flickered the Love-Flame, to be snuffed by
a breath or fanned to a blast, to consume
her with a passion of sacrifice, an ecstasy
of love .such as few women may squander
on a man. ,
