Meighan‘s |latest Paramount picture, "The «Ne‘erâ€"Doâ€"«Well," which will â€"be â€" given‘ «its first showings at the. Beaver Theatre next Monday; The story, by Rex Beach,. is based on the reâ€"generation idea. ; Kirk Anthony _ (Thomas. Meighan) lives up to the title of the production, and his father is thoroughlyâ€" ashamed of him. â€" One night ata party hig friends are feeling gay and they:decide that it wouldâ€" be a good joke .onâ€"the unsuspecting: Kirk to ship him toâ€"Panâ€" amma. penniless. : : i So itâ€"is that Anthony finds himself far from. home and with mno »means of communication. â€" Then the thrilling moments begin. ~He gets himself into great trouble with the authorities and, more serious still, finds himself des* perately in love with a beautiful Spanâ€" ish, girl, played by Lila â€"Lee. How he becomes a real man and wins a charmâ€" ing woman for his wife make an interâ€" esting story. The cast is made. up of highly capable players, including Gerâ€" trude Astor, John Miltern, Gus_ Weinâ€" berg, Jules Cowles, Laurence «Wheat and George O‘Brien. ONE OF THE BEST IS $ "THE NE‘ERâ€"DOâ€"WELL" Imagine getting an intimate glimpse of behind the scenes at the big_ stuâ€" dios, seeing all the noted stars and diretors at work, viewing the familiar scenes of the western film capitalâ€"the hotels, boulevards, studios, bungalows, howl, etc. f ¢ « That‘s what "Hollywood," _ whicli will be shown at the: Oakwood theatre Sept..27, 28, 29, brings to the sereenm and with it a very enjoyable tale ofâ€"a middle western family which goes td Hollywood and gets entangled with the community as famous as Paris itself. There is no expose, no. propaganda, but just a straightway tale of the sort that will appeal to all who love â€" pict tures and wish to know all about how folk get. in them, how they are made and so on. There‘s a ‘fineâ€" romantic strain, love interest in plenty and an abundance of comedy of the <best quality. â€" C But, in assuming the robes of Rusâ€" sian royalty, Barrymore loses none of the screen daring which featured â€" his work in previous successes.: One moâ€" ment he is the proud and bored arâ€" istocrat; the next he is executing a succession of feats that even few of the soâ€"called~ atheleticstars . of pictures would essay. _ as being more thrilling than that which he staged with Louis Wolheim â€"‘"The Face in The Fog," described by critics as the most realistic ever filmed. : In one part of his fight with Linow, Barâ€" rymore makes a startling leap from a high balcony and lands squarely on the burly Russian whom he bears to the ground. Barrymore, with Paul Panzer as his opponent also stages. what is said to be the most tense and realistic sword fight â€"over filmed. ( as Pedro deâ€"Cordoba, who created the Duke. of Buckingham role in ‘When Knighthood was in Flower," William ("Buster‘"‘) Collier, Jr., Paul Panger, Mario Majeroni and Betty Boutons>» _ Several faces | unfamiliar to the screen public will appear â€" in leading roles which adds zest toâ€" the ‘whole thing, but the "support" includes many sercen notables of, international promâ€" inence. f Barrymore‘s fight with Ivan Linow, 225â€"pound champion Russian wrestler, in ‘"Enemiesâ€"of Women," is described Featured with Barrymore. in "Enâ€" cmies . ~of Women" is Almaâ€" Ruebens, whoappears in. the role of. Alicia, the Duchess ~deâ€" Delille. \The supporting cast includes such. prominent players Photoplay patrons | everywhere are going to be greatly interested in "Holâ€" lywood," a new James Cruze producâ€" tion for Paramount which. has as its background, the motion pictures them« selves. "Hollywood" promises to be the season‘s ;greatest ~novelty ~and one which might well be dedicated to lovers of motion pictures the world over. .. / In this picturization of what many consider to be Vicente Blasco Ibanez‘s greatest romance, Barrymore is seen in a role altogether different than any he has/interpreted on the screen, . Motion picture fans will see the versatile Barâ€" rymore in a new light in "Enemics of MWomen." . "The unfortunate. crook "Boomerang Bill" and the crafty but straightâ€"going Boston Blackie" are reâ€" placed by Prince Lubinoff, a man who has lived too fully and one whose belief is that everything has a price; but that nothing is worth what it costs. > : LIONEL BARRYMORE AN ATHELETIC SCREEN STAR _From the role of a reformed crook whose . knowledge. of the . American underworldâ€"enables him to ferret out a nest of Russian criminals, desperate in their search for. the~ Russianâ€" crown jewels, to that . of . a proud . Russian prince whose extravagances and escapâ€" ades in his sumtpuous palace in Moscow excite all Europe is the jump made by Lionel Barrymore from: "The. Face in the.

"Makes my salary look funny, doesn‘t it?" »he said. Oh, he was a difficult person to get on with these days, this husband of thers. â€" Ella istared at him. Above all things, she wanted to believe that she had a clever husband, if an unlucky one. She wasâ€"brainy and ambitious herself, and she simply hated the thought that David was neither, "Absolutely correct," he said. "Here is the money for your assistants, and your first week‘s salary and. commisâ€" sion.

"L is final:t "Very. well." Ela didâ€"not say any more then, but her lips set ominously. ~Whatever she might decide to do, David\ had only got himself to blame. If she went on giving way to him her‘life would become â€" an â€"absolute misery, there was no doubt whatever about that.> Hesimply did not agree with her in anything at all. He found fault with every suggestion that she made. He would not give her a word of congratulation; it was almost as if he were consumed with » jealousy at her success. It was/not playing, the game. She had been looking eagerly forâ€" ward to the trip to Brighton herself. She felt that it would be just the thing after her week‘s work; it would build up her health for the following week. â€" The change of air would do hev‘ a world of good, and now Dave put an end to her plans out of sheer peevishness. At least, he said he would not go. David really had no special ability? She had asked herself that qestion time and again. If it were true, then that fact would hurt her more than anyâ€" thins. Ella took a taxi all the way home that evening. She felt that she had to. She was so jubilant. David was already home, and she felt that she could not let the quarrel last ‘another, moment. She was ach ing totell him the result of her first week: And in the end she put her moâ€" ney before him on the table. ing "I think you will be very foolish indeed if you don‘t go," Elizabeth said at" once. °"I quite agree that it will do you the world of good; it is the very thing you. want. Go, by all means, Ella." ) "I‘ve got no one to go with." "Yes, you have. I shall be delightâ€" ed to accompany you, if my company is exciting enough." Ella vhad not expected that suggesâ€" tion, and she did not reply for a minâ€" ute. Should she do it?â€"Should she acâ€" cept_the offer, and go with her aunt? «It would mean leaving David all on his own for Saturday evening and all day Sunday. He would have a rotâ€" tem time of it. But then, it was his own fault, he could not complain; she had asked him to_come with her in the first place and he had refused. She was a rich woman. Eleven pounds five shillings! It me!!nt the end of all. the ‘grinding poverty. It meant: that ‘she was going to "live" at last, to have a really ‘good time. It was in this mood that Ella Eardâ€" ley went to the shop next morning, and happened to tell herâ€" aunt of her disappointment. : iMiss Darrell slipped her arm round her niece‘s shouldre. "Look: her, mydear, T‘ll tell you something," she said. "That husband of yours needs teaching a lesson. He has no right to treat you like. this at all; he should be proud of. you. Posâ€" sibly if you go this time, he ‘will think twice in the future before refusing to take you himself. t is »forâ€" your health‘s sake as well. ‘You have had a pretty strenuous week: of it, I know that, and Brighton always did_ suit you, didn‘t â€"it?" "Well then, gol We canr eatch a train round about four o‘clock, stop at some little hotelâ€"" s "Auntie, could I go home now and get my elothes, and then change at your flat?" Â¥Certainly." "Tell me where you propose to stay." Elizabeth Darrell: named the hotel she had inâ€" mind, and Ella Eardley thought rapidly, He would get that when he came home, and it was possible he would meet her at the ‘station, or if he did not do that, then he would follow her down, which would be better still. "The air is like a tonic to me," she agreed. She would go home, pack what few things she wanted, and deave a note for Dave, saying where=she was going.
