f-THlRTY A WEEK" sounds like
I penury to mo.t people these
days, but in photoplay form it
works out most satisfactorily. with
Tom Moore the star of an hilarious
comedy drama. Tom illustrates how it
can be done on "thirty a week," and
incidentally how tidy, handsome and
even respectable a man can look in a
chauffeur's uniform. The picture is
one of the best that Uoldwyn has made.
Heiresses with a leaning towards the
man at the wheel and young men who
hesitate taking the final plunge be
cause of an insufficient income are giv
en unquestionable assurance that a man
may have gentlemanly instincts though
a mechanic, and that a girl may be hu
man, though rich notwithstanding
"movie" precedents to the contrary.
"Thirty a Week" evolves the tale of
an heiress who elopes with, her chauf
feur, and, strar.ge to say. lives happily
with him ever after. Tom's blarney
and pugnacious Irish temperament are
delightful, while his leading woman,
Tallulah Bankhead, has personality as
well as good looks.
The programme is motor-flavored
throughout, for in addition to the Moore
picture, a feature of unusual interest
is the one-reeler, "Bucking the Snow
to Mount Hood." in which is depicted
the valiant and record-breaking strug
gle of a one-ton Chevrolet truck which
reached Government camp, loaded to
capacity and with its own power, on
April 1. The picture has scenic beauty
as well as presenting proof of motor
efficiency.
XoblP to Manage Liberty.
Paul F. ("Ace") Noble, publicity ex
pert for the Liberty and.Columbia thea
ters, the Jensen & Von Herberg pho
toplay houses in Portland, Tias succeed
ed K. J. Myrick as manager of the
Liberty theater.
Xoble is to play a dual role, com
bining his publicity work with that of
managing the big Liberty. Much as he
enjoys photoplay exploitation, he is en
vious of the chap who runs a theater,
and when C. S. Jensen decided to trans
fer Mr. Myrick to the Itialto theater at
Butte, Xoble persuaded his boss to turn
the Liberty over to him.
The new Liberty manager quit the
film exchange game to become manager
of the old National theater in 1915-16,
then went to Butte and managed the
American theater for Grombacher &
Bailey for two years. His activities
attracted widespread attention, and a
year ago he became identified with the
Jensen & Von Herberg interests.
Columbia.
"A Regular Fellow," a light comedy
featuring Taylor Hoimes, comedy star
of stage and screen, opens today at the
Columbia theater. It's a photo-tale of
a woman hater, with a couple o crooks
mixed up in the exciting part of the
picture.
Dalion Pemberton, the hero, runs all
the way to South America to escape the
fair sex. "When I see a woman it
spoils my whole day." he asserted, and
then he proceeds to fall in love at first
sight.
"Welcome, Little Stranger," a. James
Montgomery Flagg comedy, and Screen
in "The Secret Garden," is Helene's
brother.
Valkyrien, the Danish film beauty,
was married to Baron DeWitz, but
recently obtained a divorce.
A Los Angeles note has it that
Mitchell Lewis and his players have
departed for Oregon to get some timber
scenes.
.
Frank Keenan made his first appear
ance on the stage in Boston in 18T6,
when he was 18 years old.
A film sage remarks: "Every 13. 14,
15 and 36-year-old in the United States
wants to be a movie actress."
Bartram Grassby is 19 years old, an
Englishman, and was educated in the
United btates. He has been with cox,
Universal and, lately, Griffith.
M. C. Ethel and Marguerite Clay
ton are not even remotely related.
Charles Ray has just completed
photoplay under the title of "Whistling
Jim." in which he had to appear as a
prizefighter. After many strenuous
rounds in the arena, the scenes were
secured and Charles Ray is still safe
and sound. He had the distinction of
boxing, during the production of this
picture, with such famous fighters as
Al Kauffman. Cliff Jordan, Ray Kirk
wood and Jimmie Fortney.
Niles Welch, who supported Enid
Bennett in the latest picture of her
making, has been retained as leading
man for her in a new production, which
she will begin in a few days at the

Thomas H. Ince has just purchased
a new speed motorboat. 16 feet over

skips the Pacific waves to the tune
of 22 miles an hour. He also has a
large sea-going yacht.

the Ince studio. '
