Brown will bo soon on the screen of the Liberty Theatre Sunday for a three-day run, in his latest First National comedy, “Elmer the Great,” which is said to be the most uproar iously funny of any picture he has appeared in to date. “Elmer the Great,” written by Ring Lardnor and George M. Cohan, was a comedy riot on the stage and is said to be even more hilarious as a screen play, because many of the startling sequences which could be only hinted at before the footlights are actually deputed in the picture. Some of the funniest as well as most intense scenes in the picture oc cur during the playing of a World Series in a downpour of rain. The plot concerns a hick town boy who develops into the champion bats man of the big league. He is also the champion eater and long-time steeper. His cocksureneas makes him the butt of innumerable jokes by other mem bers of his team. Joe, as Elmer the Great, becomes involved in a love tangle which even tually lands him in jail, and very nearly loses the World’s Series cham pionship for his team. How he ex tricates himself and finally wins both the game and the girl is one of the most exciting as well as the most laughable incidents in a comedy full of riotous situations and fact actio«.

The story concerns a hunt for gold entombed in a sunken submarine, and it gives the camerman a grand oppor tunity to get some marvelous shots of the wonder that exist below the waves. Through the windows of the diving bell he ground away at the un ending variety of* swimming and crawling under-sea inhabitants and fantastic plants and flowers, and the result is presented in the picture in their beautiful natural colors.

Many of the scenes in “The Mystery of the Wax Museum,” coming to the Liberty Theatre as a preview Satur day night, were of necessity made be hind locked doors, as the girls who appear as models for a wax sculptor, were required to appear in what is known as “the altogether.” In order to reproduce exact likenesses of these girls* figures, plaster casts were made of their bodies first. Then the casts were used for the wax reproductions. Lionel Atwill, who plays the leading role as the sculptor is said to give a performance of haunting power and uncanny reality. After a fire which melts and totally destroys his London collection of wax effigies of famous beauties and infamous characters of history, he comes to a large American city, where his increasing display of amazingly lifelike “statutes” In the nude arouses the suspicions of the po lice.
