Of this number, two were featured players, six were supporting players, twelve were but players, and six hundred and sixtyâ€" seven were used for "atmosphere." The two leading roles are superbly portrayed by Adolphe Menjou and Florence Vidor, while the supporting cast includes Lawrence Grant, Andre de.

F.. which opens at the O@kwood Theatre for 3 days next Thursday, is nothing short of a miracle. ""*Behind the | Front‘"‘ is a true mirror of the humorous! side of soldiering in France. The story conâ€" cerns a couple of dumb doughboys, played by Wallace Beery and., Rayâ€" mond Hatton, and their love affair with an exceptionally beautiful and viâ€" vacious girl, Mary Brian. who. never appeared more alluring and charming than she does in a Red Cross workâ€" er‘s uniform in the picture. "Behind the Front" was directed by Edward. . Sutherland. Monty _ Brice adapted it from Hugh Wiley‘s Saturâ€" day Evening Post short story. Ethel Doherty wrote the screen play. "The Grand Duchess and â€" the Waiter," which shows at the Oakwood next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesâ€" day, was adapted to the screen by Piâ€" erre Collings from the famous French play by Alfred Savoir. It deals with the comedy complications that result whenâ€" an adventurous French philanâ€" derer masquerades as a waiter to be near a lovely but snobbish Duchess, 1\\'ith whom . he falls desperately in ove. SPLENDID CAST MAKES "BEHIND THE FRONT" GRADEâ€"A COMEDY One of the best scenes in Wipers is a reproduction of _ this division marching past the still undamaged Cloth Hall at Â¥pres. This scene was staged entirely in the studio. A numâ€" ber of feet of actual war film have been incorporated in the production, but the main bulk of the picture conâ€" sists of reconstruction scenes, such as the first gas attack, the destruction of the Warneford Zeppelin, and incidents attending the winning of the V.C., inâ€" eluding LMeut.â€"Col.

Well might this feature be termed, "The trend of fashion by. an exclusive House." The producers of ‘"Ypres," which will be shown‘ at the Beaver Theatre, starting Monday, have had. the active guidance and coâ€"operation of the Briâ€" tish War Office. \ FASHION REVUE AT C. E. F. GLORIFIED Hobart Henley believes he has made one of the discoveries of the year in Gwen Lee, who recently signed a Metâ€" roâ€"Goldwynâ€"Mayer contract. Henley gave Gwen an important part in his production of "His Secreâ€" tary," which is coming to the Beaver Theatre on Thursday, starring Norma Shearer with Lew Cody, and, accordâ€" ing to the director, Miss Lee has made it one of the outstanding roles of the feature. Miss Lee is a statuesque blonde, who combines a distinctive type of beauty with a great personal appeal and amn inborn sense of comedy.. Henâ€" ley believes that when the promising players of 1925 are being reviewed, Miss Lee‘s name will not be far from the top. ITEMS OF EXCEPTIONAL INTEREST TO FANS When it came to the kissing scenes, Lew just didn‘t seem ‘himself. * ‘"What‘s wrong with. you toâ€"day, Lew, you‘ve. made me take this scene over a dozen times," finally exclaimed Henley.

MEMOIRS _ Now that the William Fox producâ€" tion, ‘"The Iron Horse," at the Maple Leaf Theatre next Monday and Tuesâ€" day, many thousands of people are wondering how this picture obtained its name. To those acquainted with the ways of thinking of the Ameriâ€" can Aboriginees, it is selfâ€"evident that the (phrase, "The Iron‘ Horse,‘ is of Indian origin. As a matter of fact, during the vast amount of research done by the Fow Scenario Depart: ment, it was found that the originaâ€" tor of this phrase was Sitting Bull, the great war chief of the Sioux. Sitting Bull was one of the most inâ€" domitable leadersof _ the ‘red revolt against the invasion of the West . by the white man. As a youth in the ‘50‘s and ‘60‘s, he sought to arouse his people to resist the invasion of their lands and the destruction of the game which was one of their . chief means of sustenance.. Together with Red Cloud and other war chiefs, he led the Sioux in numerous attempts to stop the progress of the Central Paâ€" cific Railroad. The chief evidence in this matter is to be found in the auâ€" tobiography of Colonel William F. Coâ€" dy (Buffalo Bill). In this he quotes what was said to, hime, personally by Sitting Bull as follows;: "The white man hag taken most. of our land. He has destroyed or given away the game thit was our meat. In 1868 he arranged_to build through the Indian‘s land a road on which ran iron horses that ate woodvand breathed fire and smoke. ‘The Iron Horse brought from the East men and women and children who took the land from the Indians and drove out the game." This phrase fittingly described the Indian viewpoint of the strange â€"new monster which had disrupted â€" their lives. For many years this expression was little used, but since the tremenâ€" dous success of ‘the William Fox proâ€" duction, "The Iron Horse," that phrase has become part of the English lanâ€" guage and it is now generally used, not only by the masses, but also by poets, editors and writers of every kind and degree, in place of the less imaginaâ€" tive words, engine andâ€"locomotive. THRILLS Aâ€"PLENTY IN "THE OVERLAND LIMITED "‘Theâ€" Overland _ Limited" speeding through the night. Passengers peaceâ€" fully sleeping. A maniac attacks the engineer, seizes the throttle and the steel monster roars onwardâ€"toward a broken bridge which will crash downâ€" ward a hundred feet at the slightest jar! ‘That is the hairâ€"raising climax to "The Overland Limited," the new Gotham Production which comes . to the Weston Theatre on Thursday, Friâ€" day and Saturday of this week. There is a wealth ‘of real action, however, before the big scene, which is but one of the many exciting moâ€" ments in this romance of the roaring rails. An excellent cast has been assemâ€" bled for this picture, every one of the players being in the star class. Some of the principal players being, _ Malâ€" colm McGregor, Alice â€" Lake, Ralph Lewis, Olive Borden, Chas. Post, Ethâ€" el Wales. John MilJon, Chas. Henry Mailes, Emmett King and others. Frank O‘Neil directed the picture which is from an original story by James J. Tynan, seenarist of ‘"The Great Divide" and other big photoâ€" plays. An entire railroad division was utilized to make this production which is the greatest railroad drama . ever produced for the screen.
