"Barbed Wire" wins this rank first and last because it portrays life as it is; because It is a story based on the most dramatic Inci dent of all time, the world war; aid because It is not a war picture in the sense most commonly ac cepted. 4 - It treats of a phase of the con flict heretofore untouched, of the ltfe of German soldiers in a prison camp in France. "Barbed Wjire" is an adaptation of Hall Calne's great novel, "The Woman - of Khockaloe." The powerful story has lost nothing In its transition to the screen; rather it has gained. Pola Negri Is superb as Mona, the peasant girl who is irresistibly attracted to love Oskar, a prison er in the camp near her home, in spite of the first bitter hatred she feels toward the enemy of her country. Once more she Is the Pola Negri of "Gypsy Love" and of "Passion" her two sensational European-made successes. This is "because Miss Negri was surrounded by the perfect staff, the perfect cast for the production of this new picture. Erich Pom mer, who'made "The Last Laugh" and "Variety" and more recently. "Hotel Imperial," was co-producer with Rowland V. Lee, who direct ed Clive Brook, one of the best of Paramounfs leading"; men and Einar Hansbn, the young Swedish actor, appear in able support of the great star. Brook plays the part of Oskar while Hanson is1 cast as Mona's brother who is called away to war. Claude Gillingwater, the veter an character actor, gives a won derful performance as the Father and Gustay von Seyffertitz as the cold-hearted neighbor leaves noth ing to be desired .in the way of villainy. Oregon Theater "Resurrecttan," the picturiza tion of Count Leo Tolstoy's im mortal story of love and sacrifice that opened at the Oregon Thea ter last night, is one of the most realistic pictures that has ever been brought to the screen. Con gratulations on the film are in or der to Director Edwin Carewe, to United Ostsand to Rod La Roc$EHana Dolores del Rio, prin cipal' The Inspiration Pictures Edwtn Sarewe production of Tol stoy's classic is a powerful and entirely worthy one.; - Rod La Rocque, in the role of Prince Dmitri Nekhludof, very nearly plays tbreeicharacters in one, giving the'ehanges that take place in the soul of the Prince and their reflection in his physi cal appearance. As the dashing, impulsive youag Prince who de clares his love for the peasant girl, Katusha Maslova, he is tfts boyish and innocently carefree as an undergraduate off the campus. Sketching clnematicallythetrans ition to the sophisticated, almost savage courtier of a few months later. La Rocque is another man, a devil-may-care type of whom nothing is.Bacred. forj wboja ,th whole , perspective of life is changed. Finally, as the lover, a fine, upstanding and worthy Prince whose soul has been purged in the fires of understanding love. La Rocque reaches the peak. The star is perfectly balanced ft)-loIore del Iio as the young pewsam gin wuu'mcmo iu w of the Prince's sin.

Mr. Dunn is noted as one of vaude-vill's- foremost mimics.

Jim mle also impersonates well known celebrities' of the stage with con summate skill and mimicry. He itcorporates these accomplish ments with a varied and interest ing discourse which illustrates his thorough knowledge of that school called "showmanship."

Both members of the duo are excellent entertain ers, Mr. Ketch being particularly proficient as a ventriloquist, his efforts in this5line varying much from the average performance presented by ventriloquists as he carries on a. triangular conversa tion, in which both members of the team and the "Dummy" par ticipate. This unusual feat nat urally calls, for quick action on iha part ot Jthe artist, who in or der to answer the dummy, must necessarily duplicate the usual routine of . ventriloquists. An unusual feature of the act is. the singing by Mr. Ketch in two voices, a baritone and tenor, sim ultaneously. Doctors who have ex amined Mr. Ketch have reported that he has two distinct vocal cords on each side of his throat Instead of one. "When he uses the four cords at one time, the tones harmonize giving the im pression of two persons singing. "Vocal Variety" as presented by Ketch and Wilma furnishes a most amusing delightful and thoroughly enjoyable entertain ment.

Grand Theatre A game of wits, .with death as the penalty for failure and liberty the reward for success, is indulged in by John Barrymore in one of the most entertaining scenes .of his first United .Artists picture, "The Beloved Rogue." The film is based on the life of France's famous . vagabond poet, Frances Villon. Villon, banished Irom Paris 'al .tr a long aeries of escapades ranging from petty thievery to a public insult to the powerful Duke of Burgundy, courts the from l&oo&o by rettu-ala9te Paria-Ca- a violinist, tured, he is taken before in I Louis XI to receive the death sen tenced Louis, the half-mad mon arch, a man of many superstitions, taunts Villon from the throne, suggesting that, since he Is such a brilliant rhymester and a man of rare intellect he may be able to foretell the time of his death. The scapegrace poet, with scant hope of success, but; rely ing on his knowledge that, the king, though arrogant and cruel, Ja many times swayed by super stitious "beliefs,? answers t f Ji '', "Yes, Majesty, I can." -The king, taken back for a mo ment, bids" the poet reveal the time at which he expects to die; whereupon Villon, quite meek and humble says: "Majesty", ft Us 'written in the stars, my death, occurs just twenty-four hours bef orb your own.'! The king, flabbergasted for a moment; looks qultically towards the poet, trying to read in his eyes whether he speaks the truth or is playing a Joke. Ho is torn between 'his impulse to disregard the poet's intimation," and the fearful influence of his supersti tions. , , , . The outcome , of this odd sit ua tion, where a poet of the people, on, the, point , of being sentenced to death, dares to match hU wits against the strange mentality ot a half mad king, is one ot the1 inost surprising highlights In "The Be loved Rogue."
