. "GOING STRAIGHT." Do you remember the. old time movie show, with its snappy drum- mer, "one-minute-while-we-change- reels," slide, and everything?-- Do you remember those days? Well, they're coming back again, Tonight the Regent Theatre will show the Uniyersal's Special Mary Pickford _ Revival picture, "Going Straight." "Going Straight" was made twelve years ago and was one of the biggest sucegses of that period. At that time it was a tragedy, now it's a comedy. The two reels illustrate far better that words the marvelous progress that has been made in the screen art since 1910, Manager Pomroy has made special arrangements for the showing of the revival picture and is keeping the details secret, but from the hints he has let drop, patrons are going to get a genuine and enjoyable sur- prise when "Little Mary" starts emoting all over the Regent screen. BURSTING BEANS STARTLE VIOLA Miss Dana, Leading Lumber Camp Life, Forgot Culinary Experi- ment--It Blew Up Viola Dana, the cast of players sup- porting her in "They Like 'Em Rough," her director, Harry Beau- mort, and the other members of the Metro company on location in the mountains near Fresno, California, during the filming of the outdoor scenes of this picture, were startled out of their sleep one night by an ex- plosion capable of rousing a night watchman, Rushing from the log houses in whieh they had taken temporary quarters, the actors, electricians, helpers -- the whole crowd--came upon something that looked like 2 shell crater, not far from the star's cabin, Immediately came the sus- picion of some attempt on' her lifa. The photoplay has scenes none too favorable to professional agitators, and these might have come to the ears of real trouble-makers, the Metro company conjectured. Then suddenly Viola Dana herself appeared, bundled in a big fur coat. She stared at the hole in the ground a moment, then giggled. "It's my beans," she explained, with some contrition. "I tried about three days ago to cook some. You know, making an oven in the ground, sinking a pot in it, and then covering it over." An expres- sion of guilt came over her face. "I must have forgotten to take 'em out" she added, "and the molasses fermented and made them explode." The beans are not shown in "They Like Em Rough," which is to be seen Fri, and Sat. at the Regent Theatre, but there are other thrills. The photoplay is a Harry Beawment production, from Rex Taylor's story and' scenario. LYTELL A DETECTIVE IN "SHERLOCK BROWN" Star Who Won Fame as Gentleman . Thief Turns to Right in Veiller Picture Bert Lytell, who has been seen as the gentlemanly crook of a score of screen dramas, has turned the tables on his underworld companions of the gereen and is now appearing as a detective. In Bayard Veiller's new Metro production, *'Sherlock Brown," Lytell is seen in the title role as a persistent seeker after government enemies. In "Alias Jimmy "Boston Blackie(s "Boston Blackie's Redemption," "Alias Ladyfingers," and "Faith," Lytell became known to picture go- ers as an expert law breaker. Speak- ing of his new picture, he said: "Fm glad to have this opportuni- ty tp test out the old saw about it requiring a crook to catch a crook. I have learned enough crook tricks in earlier pictures to make any genuine criminal fear me. Now, it's up to me to make use of this knowledge as the amateur detec- tive" The cast supporting Mr. Lytell in- cludes Ora Carew, Sylvia Breamer, Theodore von Eltz, Charles Steven- son, Victory Bateman, De Witt Jen- nings and Hardee Kirkland. "Sherlock Brown," the Metro photoplay which is how showing at the New Martin Theatre, is the first original story Bayard Veiller has written for the screen. In addition to being the author of the story, Mr. Veiller directed it himself. Veiller is well known as the author of stage plays which have won great success. "Within the Law" and "The Thir- teenth Chair" came from his pen. Valentine," Little Pal," A NEW FLYCATCHER The latest device for catching flies is a great advance on the sticky paper, so unsightly and so cruel, for even flies deserve a quick death. The new invention is worked by electric- ity, and is quite ornamental. It is composed of a piece of wood with fbur grooved sides, round which is ound a wire for conducting the current. This wire is coated with a preparation that attracts flies, and immediately an insect settles on the wire it receives an electric shock. Its body falls out of sight into a round brass bowl, which can be re- moved for emptying.
