on stage and screen tor several
years and all number their per
sonal following in thousands.
"Beyond the Rainbow- is the
attraction at the Liberty theater
Friday and Saturday, where lov
ers of the movie drama may have
an opportunity to appraise the
work of the extraordinary cast.
Fox example, " there are iTarry
Morey. Edmund Brccsc. George
Fawcett, Macey Harlam and oth
ers of importance among the male
members of the cast. Among the
women are such favorites as Rose
Coghlan,' still the same great art
ist as of old; Lillian (Billie)
Dove, famous beauty of the Zieg
feld Follies, whose artistry in Ca
banne R-C productions has car
ried her to popularity on the
screen almost over night, ani.
Helen Ware, an artist of the first
waterr, whose great performance
in Belasco's "The Wandering
Jew," was one of the really big
artistic . accomplishments in the
theater last year.
Then, too, there are two beauty
contest winners in Virginia Lee
and Clara Bow, one fair and the
other dark, but both young art
ists who promise much for the
future. Diana Allen, a star in
her own right., and Marguerite
Courtot, .long prominent on the
screen, also have outstanding
rdle. Then there are .others,
such as James Harrison, well
known Juvenile; Walter Miller,
Charles Craig and also Huntly
Gordon, whose striking figure has
graced more than one Cabanne
success.
Alan Grey is. among the happi
est talkative tricksters appearing
in vaudeville. He is not of the old
school offering a routine of blase
tricks in slight of hand, but rath
er a comedian both original and
decidedly funny. In fact his per
formance has been called "Twelve
minutes of hearty laughing and
distinctively different fun." He is
ably assisted by Dot Haynes. At
the Bllgh today and tomorrow.
Gloria Swanson, born in Chi
cago, .spent her early years in
New York, Key Wset and Porto
Rico. She made her debut in an
Essanay picture, then entered
comedy. She scored in "Don't
Change Your Husband," "For
Better for Worse," "Male and
Female," "Why Change Your
We?" "Something to Think
About," "The Great Moment,"
and "Her Husband's Trademark."
"The Birth of a Nation" will
be the attraction May 30 and 31
at the Grand theater, with a spe
cial orchestra and at popular
prices.
. Rudolph Valentino was born In
Castellaneta, Italy, and educated
at the Military and Agricultural
colleges in Italy. Coming to Am
erica, played three years in vaude
ville with Bonnie Glass and Joan
Sawyer and two seasons in musi
cal comedy. On the screen he has
appeared opposite many noted
stars, including Mae Murray, Dor
othy Glsh, Clara Kimball Young,
Dorothy Phillips, Nazlmova, Ag
nes Ayres. Dorothy Dalton and
Gloria Swanson. His splendid
work In "The Four Horsemen of
Today
Tomorrow
Tuesday
Advance
"Over
The
Hill?
Starts
Wednesday.
J Runs 4 Days
the Apocalypse." and "The Con
quering Power" won him fame.
His Paramount successes include
"The Sheik" and "Moran of the
Lady Letty."
Sally Crute. who displays grief
and sorrcy in the leading femi
nine role of "Perjury," the super
special whie will begin an en
gagement at the Liberty theater
next week, experienced red an
guish at. her first appearance be
fore the clicking camera.
Miss Crute was playing in vaud
eville at Chicago when an Essany
director saw her and decided he
would be an impressive actress on
the screen. He invited her to ap
pear in a picture he was making,
and she gladly consented.
Continuing then her Taudevilie
work. Miss Crute came upon a
theater where the picture she had
worked in was being shown. The
time of her turn In the vaudeville
house enabled her to see the pic
ture. She sat breathless, wait
ing for the scenes In which sne
had appeared. They came, but
the was not there:
Almost inclined to weep, she
left the picture theater, and wrote
asking the Essany director why
he had not. told her she would
not do. He replied that she very
much would do. and that he
wanted her for the feminine lead
in a picture he wa to begin mak
ing soon after the expiration of
her vaudeville contract. He ex
plained further that the filming
of the scenes with Miss Crute was
simply for the puiose of seeing
how she registered.
In speaking of the experience.
Miss Crute said:
"I wasted a let of perfectly
Kood anguish which I could have
used in "Perjury."
"Over the Hill," tells a story as
old as life itself and as new a the
present moment. It is a story of
mother-love divine of beautiful
sacrifice suffered uncomplainingly
and finally rewarded.
Tears there are, of course, but
tears that are immediately follow
ed by wholesome laughter. It
fairly bulges with fun the kind
of fun such as the older ones have
had in their youth and such as
the youthful are now having. It is
the humor that results from the
inconsequental things In the every
day life of a plain unpretentious
family the kind of humor that
centers about a family of six live
ly children, a dog, a shiftless fa
ther and a loving, forgiving
mother.
During the year nearly a mil
lion New Yorkers flocked delight
edly to see it, constituting in sev
eral instances a traffic problem
of no small proportions. The
crowds that gathered twice daily
in the theater lobby before it
constituted, too, a veritable Van
ity Fair, inasmuch as it drew to
its doors people from every walk
of life, the young, the old, the
rich and the poor. The universal
ity of its appeal makes "Over the
Hill" at once the picture for every
body. There is no type or class of
theatergoer extant that "Over the
Hill" cannot amuse and entertain.
Sterling Rose Trio, an athletic
trio of skillful acrobats, who offer
a series of muscle demanding
stunts all done with fine finish
and commendable ease. One of
the most novel acts in vaudeville
The offering consists of two mus
cular men and one woman, also
feats of strength and grace exe
cuted on the flying rings. T'hey
are gorgeously attired in tights
and colored jersles and the young
lady of the trio in gay costumes
plays musical instruments. Show
ing at the Bligh today and tomor
row. Ever since the birth of the mo
tion picture industry producers
have secretly cherished the hope
that some day they might create
a photoplay which would vie suc
cessfully with the spoken dramas
enjoying long runs in the major
playhouses of America's large
cities.
To produce a film, however, !
that would run for one solid year
ou uroaaway, ew York City.
wnere standards are both born
and destroyed, was considered a
purely idealistic dream. It was the
acme of absurdity . Broadway
Would tire of the best picture In
90 days, was the gist of popular
contention. Any one sueeestine
the possibility of a new record
run for a silver screen production
was laughed down .by tne most
liberal of the critics.
Unwilling to run the risk of ex
posing their views to public ridicule-,
the men who hoped to ac
complish the "impossible" re
mained silent. Then came William
Fox, one of the earliest pioneers ;
of the Industry, with the an
nouncement that he would pro
duce a motion picture which,
through Its purity and simplicity
of theme, would smash every rec
ord in the anals of the silent dra
ma a picture that would run for
12 consecutive months on Broad
waya picture that would go into
the theaters throughout the en
tire coountry for longer showings
than ever were recorded before
a picture that . would ' make the
"Impossible an actuality.
A chorus beauty had 'a friend.
He liked her so well that when
he died .he left her million or
two. What woman woudn't take
It? The heroine ot "The Goolden
Gallows,! a Universal offering at
the Blight theater today anoTTF
morrow, starring Miss da Post,
thought there was no harm in It
and not able to impose any
"strings." But it was a choice
morsel for the gossips and the for
tune became the "golden gallows"
upon which the girl's good name
was hanged.
Wallace Reid. Paramount star,
has had some thrilling and hard
fought battles in his numerous
Paramount and Art era ft pictures,
but what is conceded to be one of
the most sensational fights ever
staged in a screen production, is
shown with vivid realism in "The
Valley of the Giants," which will
be shown at the Bllgh theater on
Friday and Saturday.
"Two Minutes to Go." a First
National attraction, in which
Charles Ray is said to have one
of the most interesting roles of hi3
career, will begin an engagement
of three days at the Bligh treatcr
on Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday.
"Listen. Look and Laugh." the
Salem made picture had such a
successful run that the Bligh
theater will show it again next
Tuesday matinee and evening.
The Liberty theater announces
its opening for next Friday even
ing, when it will be finished
decorating and remodeling. The
shows will be taken to the Grand
theater for the week, and the Lib
erty will be closed after today un
til Friday evening.

Friends and old acquaintances
of Earl A. Gregg will be pleased
to learn of his return to this city
from Seattle after about six
years absence.
Mr. Gregg has purchased a half I
Interest in the Mlstland Bakery,
which has been operated by his
brother Glenn H. Gregg. The twu
brothers expect to continue as
partners in the production of the
popular "Better Yet" bread and
pastries.
Before leaving Seattle Mr.
Gregg was employed by the Olaf
Swenson company, a large firm

dealing with Siberian and Arctic

ing and prosperous conditions In
Salem led him to believe he has
a greater opportunity here as a
part owner in the bakery busi
ness. Mr. Gregg will be remembered
