Marie Prevost. Raymond Griffith,
Clarence Badger and Alice Lake, all

the old days at the Seunett studio.
They were reunited In the filming of
one of the greatest mystery dramas
of the year. "Red Lights.” which la
the Goldwyn screen version of tlie
stage play, “The Rear Car.”
Clarence Badger, who directed “Red
Lights.” which is coming to the Ri
alto theatre tomorrow and Saturday,
directed comedies on the Bennett lot
at the time Marie Prevost and Alice
Lake were members of the famous
bathing brigade.
Raymond Griffith
waa a Keystone cop, and later wrote
comedies for the company. He was
recently signed under a long term con
tract with the Goldwyn company.

In “The Enemies of Women;” Cos
mopolitan Product ions’ new su|>er-
feature, which comes to tlie Rialto
TTheatre Hunday. Monday and Tuesday,
the public will have the opportunity
to see on the screen what are said to
be the most striking scenes ever made
of the world-famous resort, Monte
Carlo. In the imputar romane«* by
Vicente Blasco Ibanez, Monte Carlo
and its reuowned Casino play a prom
inent part. For this reason Cosmo-1
politan Productions sent the entire
company making the picture to the
resort to get the last touch in atmos
phere. It was not until Ibanez him
self had arranged matters witli the
authorities at the Casino, however,
that “shots” of it could be made. Tlie
resultant scenes of Monte Carlo witli
its Casino and beautiful terrace are
said to be the most perfect in de
that has ever been photographed.
Monte Carlo, which is situated
Monaco, the smallest princi|Mility
the world, is tielleved tty many to
the nuist picturesque spot along tl^e
lieautiful Riviera. The scenery is in
comparable for its beauty, including
steep mountain heights, winding roada
and a gorgeous view of the Mediter
ranean which Monte Carlo overlooks.
Despite its natural lieauty, however,
Monte Carlo owes most of its fame
to the fickle wheel of chance. The
daily exchange of fortunes is the larg
est in any place in the world, und
anyone may ”1ry his luck”There ex
cept the natives of Monaco, who are
forbidden to play. The town of Monte
Carlo itself was founded in 115ft and
the Casino has bee». utilized as a
gaming resort since its foundation in
1H61, at which time it was lensed for
SO years to a Francois Blanc. latter
its control passed to a joint stock
company, which now operates it and
which has obtained an extension of
its concessions to 1047.
“There are more girts serving soup
in Ix>a Angeles restaurants, who came
to the movie capital to act. than there
aro actresses in pictures,” says Al
Christie, prominent comedy producer.
“Literally thousands of these girls
come West expecting to make their
fortunes in the pictures, and are now
working Isdiind counters, in restau
rants, packing fruit in season and do
ing other tasks for which they are
more fitted.”
Christie has taken the movie-mad
maid who imagines she will Is* a sec
ond Pickford as the subject for his
latest comedy, "Hazel From Holly
wood,” which satirizes movies In gen
eral. This new Educationnl-Chrlstle
comedy will be slatwu at the Rialto
theatre Wednesday and Thursday.

One morning last week the sky was
unclouded except for a heavy cloud
over the high point just northeast of
White Salmon. The rising sun paint
ed the clouds a magnificent pink.
With a deep blue sky overhead, the
'purple of the wooded slope to the west
and the sunlight -streaming in the
gorge of the Columbia to th«- east, a
picture of rare yplendor was pre
sented.

that the Blue Diamonds, a basketball
team formed by young men of the city,
many of them formerly collegiate and
high achool stars, will meet Tlie Çoy-

Resumption of service by the Hood
River-White Salmon ferry lsiats was
Wtdcenie by the Heed Hi ver y ♦’reatn-
ery, which, while the Columbia river
was frozen over, had i*eeti receiving
cream from patrons in Klickitat and
Skamania counties by way of Port
land. Some of the dairymen, whose
cream has to make the 1.T0 mile jour
ney, can look from the White Salmon
country onto the local plant.
A horse, drawing a light wagon,
was driven down the Third street hill
by the Paris Fair one day last week
when the frost and ice made the sur
face like glass. He proved n good
skater.
Setting his feet he slid
gracefully to the bottom, without fall
ing once. A crowd cheered at the
accomplishment of the unique feat.
CITY HALL- BOND SINKtl
GENERAL
It is a recognized fact that the
great majority of the really successful
stage and screen stars have started
their careers as children. Tills lieing
the case, young Joey Depew, who lias
attracted so much attention by his
work in “Tlie Steadfast Heart.” com
ing to the Rialto theatre next Wednes
day and Thursday, is on his way to
the coveted position of stnr.
Joey, although only 11 years of age.
is a screen ' veteran, having started
work before the camera five years ago.
His first work was at the old World
Btudios in Fort Ix*e, the Hollywood
of the east. There the youngster
learned that tlie first requisite of a
successful player is to act natural. At
the present time this is young Depew's
.chief asset as he appears on tlie screen
like the real boy he is.
K
