A SLICE of the hitherto mysterious film land where movies are made ia transplanted to the stage of the Pantages theater this week by Joe Maddern and Tom Ward, whose novel act tops the bill which opened yester- aay anernoon. wua a oaitery vi high-powered lights throwing a bright glare' over the audience, a short reel of film showing the thea ter-goers themselves Is ground out by a camera man on the stage. Then Director Maddern turns his attention to the stage, which becomes a real movie studio for a while. A flock of atr.ateur aspirants for screen fame furnish the cast for an impromptu comedy - drama called "A Home made Romeo, or She Wanted to Vamp." The potential film celebrities scam per and race around the set to the tune of pleas, exhortations ana shouts barked through the director's megaphone and, after proper rehears als, the scenes of the miniature pic ture are recorded by an energetic cameraman just as though the scene was in Hollywood or Fort Lee. The players may not have talent, but they throw themselves into tne work wun vim and whole-hearted effort, and their activities fill the theater with laughs. One girl, as a shoulder- wiggling vampire of the old Theda Bara school, carries off first honors in the matter of laughs and applause. The pictures made this week will be shown next week on the vantages screen. By special request. Manager John- Why Grown Folks Should Be Grateful to Baby Perhaps yoi owe a lot of comfort to baby. We don't mean Just the happi ness of owning a lovable Infant we mean skin comfort, the luxurious sen sation of perfect ease that comes from frequent powdering with Johnson's Baby Powder. Very likely you never would have bought Johnson's if it hain't been for baby. And yet Johnson's Baby Powder has come to mean so much to you. Isn't It a wonderful relief for prickly hea, hives, sunburn and skin irritations of all sorts? And the self-same powder to absorb moisture that makes Johnson's Baby Powder so useful after baby'a toilet also means that it absorbs perspira tion. Do you perspire a bit ton freely? Rub plenty of Johnson's on the thighs and feet and in the arm pits. It will cling overnight, sooth, absorb, sweeten and add a delicate perfume. Be grateful to baby for Introducing you to jonnson s may powder, and remember, always, that Johnson's is "Best for Baby; Best for you." Adv.
