Florence Vidor and Edward Everett Horton do good work. {September.) MERRY WIDOW. THE Metro-Goldwyn.— A brilliant and gorgeous Bcreen version ol the romantic light opera with Mac Murray', John Gilbert and Roy D' Vrcj contributing three ol the fines) performances oi the year. {October.) MinsiiiPM \N. THE — Metro Goldwyn — A rather juvenile story, but it brings back Ramon Novarro, and that's enough for most fans. (Pectmbtr.) MY LADY'S LIPS— B. P. Schulberg.— A crook melodrama that is lively and often amusing. But we dare you to try to believe in the plot. (October.) MYSTIC, THE — Metro-Goldwyn. — Aileen Pringle gives a good performance in this melodrama nl a take fortune-teller. (November.) NEVER THE TWAIN SHALL MEET— -MetroGoldwyn. — Anita Stewart gives a piquant performance of a South Sea Island queen who loves and loses — but wins in the end. A colorful and popular picture. (October.) NEYER WEAKEN— Associated Exhibitors.— A welcome revival of a Harold Lloyd comedy. (Sept.) NEW BROOMS — Paramount. — It won't sweep you off your feet, but it might do to put in an evening. Everybody overacts but Bessie Love. (January.) NEW COMMANDMENT, THE— First National. — It's "Thou shalt not doubt.'' Wealthy boy. artist's model, misunderstanding, war. and the thrillingest love scene in months. (January.) NIGHT LIFE OF NEW YORK— Paramount.— A round of sight-seeing in New York's hotels and night clubs. You are accompanied by Rod La Rocquc. Dorothy Gish and Ernest Torrence. It's lots of fun. (September.) NOT SO LONG AGO — Paramount.— Aside from the work of Betty Bronson and Ricardo Cortez, this is a rather dull story of Manhattan in its Age of Innocence. (October.) OLD CLOTHES— Metro-Goldwyn.— The last time you will have to look at Jackie Coogan without a haircut. Maybe that's worth a quarter. Some laughs in this and a new girl, Joan Crawford. (January.) OLD HOME WEEK— Paramount— A Grade A Meighan picture — his best in a long time. George Ade wrote the story and Lila Lee is in it. (August.) ONE YEAR TO LIVE— First National.— Aileen Pringle hears the sentence of the doctor and then cuts loose in Paris. It all turns out all right. (September.) ON PROBATION— Steiner— The escapades of a rich flapper. It's fair enough if you are not tired of goings-on of the younger set. (August.) OTHER WOMAN'S STORY, THE— Shulberg — A tiresome story that might have been a good mystery melodrama. (January.) PACE THAT THRILLS, THE— First National.— Very bad. with Ben Lyon. Beautiful Mary Astor is wasted in this silly story (December.) PAINT AND POWDER— Chadwick.— The good little chorus girl becomes a star and marries the producer. Fair entertainment if you aren't too fussy. (December.) PARISIAN LOVE — B. P. Schulberg. — Just another one of those things. In case anyone cares, it's the romance of an Apache girl. Not for the children. (October.) PASSIONATE YOUTH— Truart— Now. really, after all. what did you expect from the title? (Sepl ember.)

'Schildkraut, pere, contributes a great performan reen, Don't miss it. (December.) RANGER OF THE BIG PINES— Vltagraph.— The usual Western with the usual fight, and performance by Eulalie Jensen to recommend it. (October.) RED HOT TIRES— Warner Brothers.— Just a mix-up of good, bad and indifferent comedy, played by Monte Blue and Patsy Ruth Miller. (November.) REGULAR FELLOW, A— Paramount.— (Reviewed under the original title, "He'sa Prince"). A gay burlesque of royalty with Raymond Griffith as a prince with democratic ideas. (November.) RIDIN' THE WIND— F. B. O.— Fred Thomson disappoints. A trite story. He rescues his brother from bandits, returns the stolen money and wins the girl. {December.) ROAD TO YESTERDAY, THE— Producer Dist, — Catch this picture for the gorgeous train wreck, The story is a little muddled but fairly entertaining due to the reincarnation theme. (January.) ROSE OF THE WORLD— Warners.— Sincere performances by a good cast, but an unconvincing story. Not very worthwhile. (January.) RUGGED WATERS— Paramount.— Outside of a few good storms and some rousing sea stuff, it's just an old-fashioned melodrama. (October.) SALLY OF THE SAWDUST— United Artists. D. W. Griffith proves that he can make great comedy. It's his gayest and most light-hearted picture. Wonderful acting by W. C. Fields and Carol Dempster. Everyone should see it. (August.) SATAN IN SABLES— Warner Brothers.— Lowell Sherman is a bad Russian grand duke. Pauline Garon is a little rose from Montmartre. Pretty good. (December.) SCANDAL PROOF— Fox.— The story of one of those good but misunderstood girls. Sympathetically acted by Shirley Mason. (August.) SCANDAL STREET— Arrow.— An interesting picture because of movie studio atmosphere. Story of a movie actress and her husband who are both starred at the same studio. (January.) — ' SEVEN CHANCES— Metro-Goldwyn.— Another amusing one from Buster Keaton. (June.) SEVEN DAYS — Producers Distributing. — The famous farce is given splendid production and it is well acted. Eddie Gribbon is very amusing. (A'ovember.) SEVEN KEYS TO BALDPATE— ParamountLeave the dishes in the sink. If you miss the first of this, you're lost. A corking comedy-melodrama with Douglas MacLean and Edith Roberts. (January). SHORE LEAVE— First National.— A genuinelyfunny comedy, a charming love story and Richard Bartiielmess at his best as a tough gob. (September.) SIEGE — Universal. Mary Alden and Virginia Valli in a powerful drama of two generations. Highly recommended. (August.) SIEGFRIED— Ufa.— Perhaps the most ambitious undertaking of the screen. A spectacularly beautiful and slightly dull version of the Niebelungen legend. Made in Germany. (August.) [ CONTINUED ON PAGE 1 6 ] WANTED Me n.»nd Women to Earn Money At Home .this new easy way .
