Rialto Star
r
Charlie Ruggles supplies many of
the laughs In "The Girl Without ft
Room,' at the Rialto theatre today
and Monday on their double feature
program which also has Peggy Shan
non, Lois Wilson and Sidney Black
mer In "Deluge.
"The Girl Without a Room'' Is a
gay Parisian romanoe with muwlc
but It should be classed as a mus
ical comedy for the music U woven
directly Into the story.
Madcap' artists and models help
make the picture a most diverting
one, with the plot revolving about
an unconventional model who never
knows where she will hang her
clothes from one night to the next.
Margurlte Churchill plays the role
of the model, with Charles Farreil
as the naive student from the Ten
nessee mountains. Others In the
cast are Oregory Ratoff. famous
character actor; Waltr Woolf, musi
cal comedy star, and Joyzclle, the
famous Oriental dancer whose "Love
Dance" Jn "The Sign of the Cross"
was one of the highlights of that
film.
"Deluge," on the same program, is
a spectacular story of the end of
the world when floods suddenly cover
the continent leaving only a hun
dred men and ten women as sur
vivors. It comes as a most timely
picture, with the newspapers full
of flood stories and an old hermit
In Tacoma building an ark as pro
tection against what he believes will
be the end of the world.
"College Humor"
At Roxy Today
"College Humor," Paramount's bois
terous word and music version of
college life as It ought to be, opens
at the Roxy theater today.
"College Humor" boasts an all-star
cast, a fast-moving story, a topnotch
chorus, and music that already has
proved successful on the radio and
dance program.
In its cast are BIng Crosby, Rich
ard Arlen, Mary Carlisle, Jack O&kle.
George Burns and Oracle Allen, Lona
Andre and Mary Kornman. The Ox
Road Co-Eds, a chorus of stunning
youngsters, provides the dancing. Its
music "Learn to Croon," "Moon
struck," and "The Old Ox Road,"
aro hit tunes.
"College Humor" la the story of a
campus at which reputations made
on the gridiron are lost In the bou
doir; w.here co-eds learn the facts
of life more readily than mathemat
ics or science.
Music and comedy are distributed
lavishly throughout the story and
the Ox-Road Co-Eds dance in and
out of the action.

HOW MUCH
YOUR EYES are your most precious posses
sion. They are the most useful and, at the
same time, the most delicate parts of your body.
To last through your lifetime you must guard
them carefully and give them constant protec
tion. To strain the eyes now is to lessen their
usefulness to you later in life. Your eyes were
made for outdoor seeing. Modern civilization
puts a tremendous extra burden upon them.
Good light is necessary for proper seeing. Wher
ever there is poor light, eyestrain is sure to oc
cur. Look to your lighting if you would keep the
priceless treasure of good eye-sight for your
family and yourself.
How to Avoid Eyestrain
GOOD LIGHTING - Restful Light - does not
necessarily mean a lot of light. Eyestrain can be
caused by glare as well as gloom. To protect the
eyes from glare, all lamps should be properly
shaded. With properly shaded lamps, excessive
brilliancy, sharp contrasts and deep shadows
are eliminated. Light, to be most useful, shouH
be well diffused.
How to Improve Your Lighting
EVERY time you turn on a light,
you are purchasing lighting serv
ice. The difference between good and
bad lighting often amounts to only a
few cents a day. But in order to secure
good lighting, proper fixtures and
floor lamps are necessary. Our one
purpose is to give you the greatest
possible benefit from the electric serv
ice you pay for. We are prepared to
help you with your lighting problems.
