AT THE REGENT A number from here picnicked at Oshawa-on-the-Lake on Saturday, Scenes of "Our Leading Citizen" Ave Photographed in Thriving City BETHESDA The beautiful city of Modesto, Mr. J. H. Werry and Miss Werry|California, of which George J. Ul- visited Mr. and Mrs. Milton Werry rich is mayor, recently underwent a complete transformptiop, emerging as "Wingfleld, Indiana!" The transformation lasted only three days however, and inasmuch as there i8 no real "Wingfield, In- diana." no serious damage was done, It all happened in the filming of "Our Leading Citizen," the George Ade story in which Thomas Meighan will star at the Regent Theatre next Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day. Mr. Ade's original is told against the background of the myth- fecal small town of "Wingfield," Now, mythical cities do very well on paper, but the camera requires something more substantial, So the city of Modesto was selected and the entire production unit, headed by the star and director Alfred Green, travelled two hundred miles for three days of filming work. Modesto has the unique distinction of nefer having served before as 1 background for motion picture ac- tion. It is one of California's oldest and most pleturesque cities and serv- ver, 8ylvia Ashton, Luclen Little- field, Laurance Wheat, Thomas Ken- nedy and Ethel Wales, A feature of the trip was a mam- month political parade staged in Mo- desto especially for this Paramount picture.
