FROM STREETS KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON AT THE THEATRES AT THE PELICAN The ways to motion picture stardom la often strange. Although talking films hav taken to Hollywood a number of players wbo cam from famous stage families wbo were liter ally born to tbe stag there still are many who became screen artists by chance. Georg O'Brien la aa excellent example. Hla father, Daniel O'Brien, for mer cblat of police of Baa Fran claco, wanted him to become a phyalclan. Following a brilliant athletic career at polytechnic high school In Baa Franclaco and at Santa Clara University, be enlisted in the navy and was assigned to Bub Chaaer 1T, la th radio division. He fought his way to th light heavyweight championship of the Pacific Fleet. Several managers eought to launch blm as a pro fessions!. Returning to Santa Clara TJnl versHy after th war, h became acquainted with Tom Mix when the latter waa shooting scene near there, and decided to be come a cameraman. Mix helped htm obtain a Job. As aa assistant cameraman O'Brien lugged a 75-pound cam era for several months, but never I turned a crank. Finally ha waa offered a small part In a picture and played It so well he attracted the attention of William Fox. Appearing In a tew small parts. he waa awarded the leading role In "Th Iron Horee," John Ford's epic produeUon. He aince haa been in other outstanding Fox film, notably "Sunrise." Tbe most recent rol portrayed by O'Brien, and his first audible one tor Fox Movietone, la that of an All-American Weat Point half back In "Salute, also directed by Ford. AT THE LIBEJtTT "A Woman ot Parts," the . first Charles Chaplin serious produe Uon for United Artist Corpora tion, will be th attraction at th Liberty theatre, starting to day. This important announcement la made by Manager Harry Poole, wbo at great coat procured for presentation that remarkable photoplay; the first dramatic contribution produced by the great genius ot the aereea Charles Chaplin. . "A Woman ot Parle," written and directed by Chaplin, marks a new departure In almost vry element that goes to make up a motion picture. Th treatment ot th story la entirely different from anything heretofore seen in th photoplay theatre. While th them deal with Ufa as It really la, the psychological study presents life's problems from a viewpoint that Is more one of understanding than of preachment- Th story nnfoldi aa ex quisite tapestry, woven around a woman'a soul naked In tta sin cerity though clothed In It In dividuality. , . AT THE PINE TREE Turned Into screen actora tor the first time, thousands ot the Fussy Wuxxys" mad famous in song and story by Rudyard A m a Fay Wray, Richard Arlea la the Paramount Picture "Th Four Feathers" Kipling play aa Important part In th film adventure story, "Th Four Feathers." ' The home ot these aborigines Is northeastern Africa, along the shores of the Red Sea and on the western sid ot th Red Saa its bills. They formed the shock troops of the army of 100,000 Dervlahea that staged an upris ing during tbe latter years of tba nineteenth century and caused the British to withdraw from that portion of tbe dark eonii nent for more than IS years. Fearless In battle, the Fustys declared by many to have been the aboriginal Egyptians who built tbe pyramids, are a dis tinct race, whose language la like no other la Africa. In "The Four Feathers," tbe Fuisya, whose fathers, fought and fell when oppoaed to British and Egyptian troops In HSJ-HS5 and again in Kit, form tha chief menace. According to Mer lin C. Cooper and Ernest B, Behoednaek, the director wbo spent more then eight month1 among them filming locatlju scenes of tbe story, they ara per fect acreen material although the task of Impressing them tbat tba battles required were only make- believed, waa not an eaay one. Included In tbe notable caat In tbe acreen version of thlr famous story from th pen of A. K. W. Maaon, which la at the Pin Tree theatre, are Richard Arlen, Fay Wray, Cllve Brook, William Powell, Noah Beery, Tbeodor von Elts, George Faw- cett, E. J. Ratcllffe, Noble John ton and others.

Some of our friends say that will be & big undertaking, but we shall try. First National Bank Member Federal Reserve Bank mark In entertainment. A the first operetta In sound and eolor, "Rio Rita" opens ap a great new vista of entertain ment to those cities and towns geographically barred from tha Broadway spectacles of Zlegfeld and the Bhubert. Tet It Is questionable whether Zlegfeld himself aver ao "glori fied" show as Radio Plcturea ha done to "Rio Rita." Certainly tba wider limitations of tha earn er have given to the gay ro mance of tbe Rio Grande more movement and action tban could ever have been acrompllehed on the f'sge. Interesting aa la th story, tar tan as ar th sets end costumes. It Is the singing and acting of the large cast of principals that lifts "Rio Rita" to th peak In audience appeal. Bebe Daniels, in tha title role. ta no lesa than a aenaatlon with her new-found voice. No herald ed prima donna of tha opera ever so fasclnsted an audience aa did Miss Daniels last night as ahe sang more than a dosen of Harry Tierney'a beautiful mel odles. John Boles, erstwhile musical comedy star. Is excellent aa lead lng man with Miss Daniels. Pressing tbe leading character for honors of tha piece, however. ar Bee Wheeler, Dorothy Lee and Robert Woolsey, who give to the show not only a generous shares of comedy, but contribute much to it large share of dancing and singing.
