NATURE UP-SIDE DOWN.
rHE above cut represents an amusing scene in the Nestor Comedy "The Rushin' Dancers," in which Eddie Lyons, Lee Moran and Edith Roberts are featured. The scanty attire and back-to-nature postures of the dancers are merely a subterfuge on the part of the men ,
to bring back their women from the worship of a dapper dancing teacher.
lyiAN'S nature turned right-side out, and the truth revealed; that's the condition displayed in "The ShowDown." a Bluebird photoplay announced for early release, with Myrtle Gonzalez, playing the role of a society girl who found new purposes in life, and George Hernandez revealing the true inwardness of a gruff old millionaire who had always seemed to be happy only in the chase for dollars When a party of tourists were cast away upon an island in mid-Pacific and were forced to "root hog, or die," the true natures that were revealed worked some astonishing disclosures. Lynn F. Reynolds directed this charming Bluebird; photographed it in Palm Canyon, California, and on Santa Cruz Island, i i the Pacific Ocean, translating to the screen the beauties of verdant nature in attractive vistas.
"Nothing shall lure me back to the stage — I'm too well satisfied with motion-picture work."
So asserted pretty Edith Roberts, who plays ingenue leads at Universal City with Eddie Lyons and Lee Moran in Nestor comedies.
The remark was occasioned by a telegram from her former vaudeville partner in the East, who, at the beginning of the next theatrical season, will be associated with the staging of one of New York's big musical revues.
"We have our own bungalow in Hollywood, mother and I," she added,, "with a big lawn, plenty of flowers,, and onions big enough to eat in our vegetable garden. I'm sure I could never find anybody I could enjoy working with more than Mr. Lyons and Mr. Moran, and Mr. Clements, my director, is so kind and patient with me, and everybody is so good to me that my work at Universal City is one continual frolic. Go back to New York and the stage ? No, indeed!"

CARTER DeHWEN in
"A Five-Foot Ruler"
Carter is the "Five-Foot Ruler" and he rules a South American country as prime minister, having been given the post by his prospective father-in-law, the president. Carter's father owns mines in the little republic, and gets in bad with the natives. He comes for protection to the president, who refers him to the prime minister— his own disinherited son. There is all kinds of comedy punch thruout and the ending is a scream. Every one will like this hugely.
