in which Guy Bates Post is starred,
and its appearance on the screen.
Just two decades ago Richard
Valton Tully, since become one of
the foremost of the country's theat
rical producers, decided that the
romantic career of Omar Khayyam
should be Immortalized in drama.
Several years were consumed in
reading the large number of qua
trains written by this famous Per
sian, and the books about him.
Then Tully traveled in Persia,
where he devoted a considerable
period to etudying the country where
Omar was born, and particularly
the city of his nativity, Naishapur,
in order to acquaint himself with
the traditions of the land.
' Returning to the United States,
he began actual work on the play.

Motion picture devoteca who pre
fer to laugh when they go to their
favorite theater will find pleifty of
opportunity if they see "Up and At
r.m," Doris May's swift-moving
cfl.nedy now at the Hippodrome
theater. Like all Miss May's ve
hicles it was fashioned chiefly for
laughing purposes. It has its
touches of drama, but the comedy
elements sparkle and glow and make
the picture delightful. Miss May is
in her most fetching mood. Little
madcap always, she doesn't miss an
opportunity to register all the vary
ing shades of comedy and Pathos ,
that make her character in "Up and
At 'Em" one of the most appealing
to which she has ever lent her tal
ents. - The story has to do with the ad
ventures of a blithe girl who takes
her life as one long good time. Doris
May is seldom serious. And In "Up
and At 'Em" she keeps the fun bub
bling from start to finish. In the
cast are such well known artists as
llallam Cooley, Otis Harlan, Clarissa
Selwynne and J. Herbert. William
Setter, who directed Miss May in
all her former vehicles, served in a
like capacity in the making of her
latest picture.
LLOYD FILM RUN EXTENDED
"Dr. Jack" to Continue lor An-
other Week at Majestic.
" The management of the Majestic
theater has again been compelled
to extend the run. of Harold Lloyd
in "Dr. Jack," his latest mirthquake.
which now enters into its fourth
week at that theater.
There has not been the slightest
abatement of interest in this splen
did feature. People who have wit
nessed it In the early days of Its
engagement have returned. And
they have brought friends, and the
friends then later returned bringing
more.
Lloyd, who is Bteadily clinching
his right to the title of comedy
king, has achieved something dif
ferent in comedy photoplays in this
production. Aside from the hilari
ously funny situations and scream
ingly funny episodes, he has man
aged to include a romance of con
siderable charm. -
Lloyd's comedies are clean and
wholesome. He does not have to
resort to suggestiveness to produce
laughing results. The present ve
hicle possesses an abundance of
snappy action and rapidly succeed
ing events that will please the most
hardened fan.
Ten years ago Harold Lloyd was a
high school student in San Diego.
He entered studioland and virtually
was nothing. Then one day, during
a comedy hit in a picture, he took
the liberty of putting on a pair of
spectacles. Those spectacles were
tne beginning of the making of
Harold Lloyd.
And he has continued to make
good. When he announced that he
would make five-reel comedies the
wiseacres declared that "it couldn't
be done." Well, he has done it and
the pronounced success of "Dr.
Jack" at the Majestic is only an
other indication of his achievements.

MODEL AT BLUE MOUSE
Audrey Munson Featured Player
in "Heedless Sloths."
Audrey Munson, the "modern
Venus," who has attained world
wide fame as an artist's model,
having been chosen by the greatest
modern masters to pose for their
great works?' has finally been in
duced to go into the movies.
That ,her maiden effort as a screen
star already sets her in the front
rank of motion-picture actresses, is
the opinion of everyone who will
see "Heedless Moths," the Audrey
Munson pnotopiay, now at the Blue
Mouse. As her director Robert Z.
Leonard declared when the picture
was completed, "Miss Munson take
to the screen life like a fish to
water."
The noted model was fortunate
enough to make her debut on the
serene In a picture that has rarely
been equalled In artistry and ex
travagance. In addition to the
magnmcenee of the production If
self, the picture possesses the added
interest of being a true narrative
of Miss Munson's life within artists' '
studios.
From the day when she em
barked on her career and was
forced to fight all the trickery and
hypocrisy of sham artists whose
only interest in art was to lure un
suspecting girls to their studios,
up to the present day, when Miss
Munson has attained the pinnacle of
her fame as the World's most beau
tiful art model, "Heedless Moths,"
describes every step in her career.
Besides the powerful love story
which "Heedless Moths" contains,
there are scenes in artists' cham
bers which have - rarely been
matched for picturesqueness and
charm, The figure of Miss Mun
son also plays prominently in the
picture, and spectators of this un
usual film, will find a delight in
beholding the most perfect woman
ly form of the age.
It will be easy to understand why
Audrey Munson was chosen as the
model for the country's greatest
statues. In every large city of the
country Miss Munson's person has
been the model which the artist
used In the statuary that adorns
municipal museums. .

- A
From all advance reports, Charles
Ray made a, happy choice in select
ing '''A Tailor-Made Man; for his
initial United Artists production.
Heralded as setting a new, and
higher standard of screen comedy
drama, it is now at the Circle thea
ter. "A Tailor-Made Man." is a'slgnifi
cant production in more ways than
one. Not only is it "the costliest
photoplay ever produced by Charles
Ray, but it presents him in a new
character, - a nevel environment
and astounding situations. He Is
said to have made the role of John
Paul Bart one of the most colorful
and picturesque In the annals of
screen drama, and to have outdone
himself in point of . humor, charm
and tenderness.
Although the stage play was one
of the salient successes of the last

LIBERTY PLAYS KYNE STORY
'Brothers Under the Skin' Proves
Rollicking Comedy. 1
A rollicking comedy-drama, a pic
turization of a story by Peter B.
Kyne which ran in the Cosmopoli
tan Magazine, is the photoplay at
the Liberty. It Is "Brothers Under
the Skin," another of Goldwyn's
"Big Twenty," and, judging from
advance reports, will be on an
equally high plane with the pro
ductions that have preceded it
The domestic misadventures of
two young married couples and the
husbands' similar solution of their
problems furnished the plot of the
story. One couple lives In a Bronx
flat the other In a Riverside drive
apartment. Both husbands are em
ployed by the same firm in capaci
ties as widely different as their
salaries one a manager, the other
a humble shipping clerk. But each
encounters the same situation at
home a1 sweet lovable wife, whose
chief talent seems to be spending
her husband s salary and more.
E. Mason Hopper directed the pic
ture, which is said to be one of the
best things he has done. And Hop
per. It may be remembered, was re
sponsible for "Dangerous Curve
Ahead," which was a masterpiece
of directorial skill.

A young man of good birth and
too careful rearing he was never
allowed to face responsibility
Robert Herrick becomes a drifter
and is stranded on the beach of a
South Sea island. Here he meets
two other derelicts, a discredited
but likeable master mariner named
Davis and a shady, vile-mouthed
London clerk called, Huish. The
three are drawn together by the
bonds of hunger and exile, and they
barely exist until a chance offers
to take out a smallpox ship.
The voyage of the schooner with
its cargo of champagne and its na
tive crew tries the souls of the
three derelicts, and each faces the
crisis in a different way. When
food runs low they sight a mys
terious island, where they found a
remarkable white man named
Attwater, who lives there with his
daughter and a few natives. For
years Attwater has taken pearls
from the lagoon and this treasure
offers a new temptation to the
three adventurers. Herrick is en
snared against his will, but Attwater
cleverly defeats Davis and Hulsh
and wins over Herrick to the side
of honor. ,
Naturally there is a girl who
loves Herrick and her devotion has
much to do with snatching Herrick
from "the ebb tide in man's af
fairs." The photography is excellent, and
the ecenes on Attwater's Island are
of the most gripping character. A
desperate fight with a devil fish In
20 feet of water is one of the big
thrills of the picture.

FTER an exceedingly careful

completed the selection of the cast
which will support Dorothy Phil
lips in "The white Frontier." This
picture is based on an original novel
by Jeffrey Deprend and was adapt

shots are now being made at

pany win go to Montreal and tho

Ju!ge: Duroscher,. the male lead
of the story, will be. played by
Lewis Dayton, hitherto unknown to
American audiences, but established
us a tremendous favorite in Eng

one of our best known character
actresses, plays Nanette, the confi
dant of the stellar role. Some of her

the recently completed "Kick In."

Norma Talmadge, who has Just re
turned from England to begin work
on her next production, "Within the

in that country could become screen
stars. She offers a chance for screen
applause to the Prince of Wales.
Lloyd George, Earl Balfour, Admiral
Beatty and promises wide distribu
tion through Associated First Na
tional. In an interview, she said:
"I would like to produce a film in
which many of England's famous
men and women appeared in the
cast. During my visit to England I
saw public personages who appear
to possess excellent 'film faoes." and
who, I think, would make admirable
film actors." ,
The castinsr of James Otis' "Toby
Tyler," in which Jackie Coogan wilt
star, is causing a great deal of in
teresting difficulty to which Eddie
Cline is bringing his well-known
sense of humor. Since the whole
story is laid in a circus, all the
characters of circus life must be re
vealed, and that includes "freaks.''
In the story the fat woman and
the skeleton man are great factors,
befriending the otherwise friend
less Toby and protecting him from
the cruelties of a brutal boss. They
must qualify not only physically for
their roles, but they must also b
competent players, for their roles
are important and charged with
heart interest.
"How to Bo Happy Though Per
secuted" is Katherine McDonald's
new problem. It is not hard for the
average screen heroine to show fear
when someone with black whiskers
and a nasty, ingrowing disposition
pursues her.
The real problem, however, is to
show fear when she Is persecuted as
attractively as only Arthur Edmund
Carewe can do it. For this young
continental star Is not only very
good looking in his Slavic way but
he is a most entertaining conversa
tionalist and is withal so ir
resistible that It takes a lot of Im
agination to be convinced.
But Miss MacDonald takes a fresh
grip on the gorgeous negligee she
wears in the first part of the story,
and her great appealing eyes do the
rest.
