This film is a wonderful realistic record of the entire crash of the old Russian government. Pudowin, the director, has taken for his chief figure a bewildered youth, who goes to the city and becomes part of the great overturn. But the hero of the picture is really the mass of the Russian workers and farmers. The story is told violently, in sharp flashes, lashing at capitalism with irony and hate. The film catches the restlessness of a whole sullen people in the chaos of revolu- tion. ] and Nancy Carroll will play the leads in a new picture, "Manhattan."

On that date they will inaug- urate a new series of popular plays to be presented every Friday in conjune- tion with first class feature photo- plays. The first play, which will be pre- sented Friday, evening of next week at 8:15 p. m., will be Taylor Holmes' famous three-act comedy drama, "Net So Fast."

The Alcyon management announces that there will be no increase in admission nrices. "Stop That Man" Coming to Community House Soon All the ingredients that go to make up a rib-cracking comedy, plentiful intermingled with action, suspense, a an appealing love theme, are embodied in "Stop That Man," the Universal picture that is to be shown at t Community House next Tuesday, Se tember 18. "Stop That Man" is a screen version of the play of the same name by George V. Hobart. It te of a younger brother who wanted to be a policeman like his two older brothers, but who, instead, almost turned into a crook. Arthur Lake en- acts the leading male role with usual zestful portrayal and is said to appear to better advantage in this than in any of his previous pictures. Bar- bara Kent is the "sweet young thing" who plays opposite him. i Reginald Denny has been called one of the best real "gag" men in motion pictures. He proves ijt in "Good Morning, Judge," coming to the Com- munity House next Friday, September 21. The star is again seen as wealthy, young, and handsonie, but he tells t girl he loves that he is poor and crim- inal in order to remain in the mission for homeless, reformed crooks, which she runs for pleasure and charity. T' presence of an unusual story and blonde Mary Nolan in the leading fem- inine role Bel to make the picture outstanding. he supporting cast good. Dorothy Gulliver and Otis Har- lan add to the comic situations with many funny incidents. ; played by Billy Fa Renee Adoree will haye 'the fea- tured feminine role in "The Spieler," a story of carnival life. Clyde Cook, Alan Hale, and Fred Kohler are also in the picture. KEENER
