Theodore Roberts, the popular Lan ky star, will be seen at the Arcade Friday and Satuiday in the title role of Mark Twain's famous story "Pudd'nhead Wilson," under the di- j recnon 01 line jesse u 1-asny reature Play Co. The photodramatic version of this classic was written especially for Air-. Roberts by Miss ' Margaret Turnbull, the famous playwripht. It is a Para mount picture. Theodore Roberts, one of the most distinguished artists on the American stage, since the time he has been with the Lasky company, bait proven him self to be one of the favorites of the screen. For the photod:-amatic version of "Pudd'nhead Wilson," the Iasky com pany have made exhaustive research into the history of that period andVtho exterior scenes were filmed in tihe lit tle town in Missouri in which the au thor laid his story. The old Southern mansion and the slave quarters are all relics of the old nays beore the war. in the burning climate of the tropics has long presented an insurmountable problem to photoplay manufacturers, who, however anxious they might be to present as backgrounds the exotic foliage and wonderful scenery to be found in the region of the equator, were compelled to photograph, if they "Pudd'nhead Wilson." a young law- LT",," -JZ' "V" yer, comes to a little town in Missouri sccneg becaU8e of the climatic condi. to practice.

IMPROVE TROPICAL PICTURES 'The Ruling Passion" Solves Climate Problem. Perfect motion picture photography Dodge Brothers j motor, car I around the fever mark, was solved m the making of the William Fox pro duction, "The Ruling Passion," in Jamaica. The film was developed in special laboratories erected for the purpose. One of the most impo:tant tfingj learned concerning the making of mo tion pictures in tropical climates has to do with the shipping of the raw film from the point of production. If raw film is shipped from the manu facturer already perforated, wijh its sprocket holes bored, it will have g tendency to shrink, as tfhe air of tha tropics is almost certain to penetrate the shipping can, no matter how ap parently secure the same may be sealed. For producing a film which will permit of perfect projection, the perfoiation should be made upon the spot when working in tropical cli mates, as was done in the film used 1.1 "The Ruling Passion," Otherwise the shrinkage of the film will cause un steadiness when the picture is pro jected on the screen.
