WM. MURRAY, : Township Clerk." Barriefield, May 26th, 1923, first r orite of Rodolph Valentino the hand- some young Italian screen artiste 'who has played with Dorothy Gish, Clara Kimball Young and Dorothy Philips; have probably recognized this dark eyed young man as the pop- ular dancer who formerly acted as partner for the graceful Joan Sav yor. As Miss Sawyer's team-mate, Mr. Valentino became the social | favorita of the east appearing in | New York theatres and dancing pal- | «| aces and also on tour of the Keith | and Orpheum circuits. | On At The Allen There is nothing new in sending a | motion picture ovmpany to foreign lands to film a production. It's be- ing done now every day. "Tha Christian" was partly filmed in Eng- | land; so was 'Sherlock Holmes." | "Ben Hur" is to be photographed in Palestine and Italy. But Goldwyn | established a precedent when it sent } the entire cast of "Lost and Found," | the photoplay which was shown at | the Allen theatre yesterday, to the | island of TRehiu in the Souh, Seas. | This was the first time in the history | of the island that an entire company had been sent there to make a 1ea- ture production. Undoubtedly it | Was a costly expedition; but the beauty of the tropical settings more than justify the effort and expense. | The thrilling dramatic story was ex- pertly directed by R. A. Walsh. The Mysterious Martini mystified | the audience at the Allen last night with his escaping feats, using strong box locked, enveloped in a canvas | cover and bound with rope, a pillory | steel color and handcuffs, | The feature of the act was his en- | trance into a solid wooden box, double locked by a member of the audience, tied with 75 feet of rope, then enveloped in a canvas cover fastened with eighteen straps and buckles and 'then bound with an- other 75: feet of pope. Martini claims his act to be the only one of his kind on the stage today. Robin Hood.
