Rex Ingram's $1,000,000 production of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," is announced for the Park Theatre May 18, 19 and 20. This will be the first showing here of the screen version of Vicente Masco Ibanez's novel that has been acclaimed in New York, Chicago, Boston, Pitt sburg, Detroit and Los Angeles as marking a new epoch in the development of motion pictures. At its New York opening people paid $10 a seat. Critics said the picture had definitel y established the screen not only as capable of rivalling the stage at its best, but of sur-passing it in its grip upon the emotions. Readers of the novel will recall that the story opens on the Argentine ranch of old Madariaga, whose territ ories are as extensive as those of the great independent barons of feudal times. And Madariaga rules with feudal power. A rioting, roystering despot, he is filled wi th Castilian pride of family and yearns for a male child t o carry on his tradi-tion. His two daughters have married ranch employees—one French and the other German. Madariaga's Latin antipathy to the German son-in-law brings with it a dis-like of his half-German grandchildren, but when a son is born to the Frenchman, Des-noyers, the old man finds hi s dream realized . The boy, Julio, is selected a s heir to the huge estate and is brought up as a spoiled prince of the realm. As a young man Julio becomes the companion of Madariaga's debauched adventures ' in Buenos Ayres tango resorts. But Madariago dies suddenly with out mak-ing a will and the German branch of the family finds itself sharing the esta te equally with the Desnoyers. With his sudden wealth the two families leave the Argentine for Europe. The Desnoyers settle in Paris, and Julio, an expert tango dancer, becomes the sensation of the fashionable dance places. He meets a fascinating little society woman, Marguerite Laurier, and the two of them are swept into a reckless love affair that takes no count of Marguerite's elderly husband. Their butter-fly mentalities do not respond at first to the sudden shock of war that breaks about them. It is 1914 and the Germans are adva ncing toward Paris. Marguerite is first awakened to the realizati on of tremendous events. She joins the French nursing force and sacrifice s her love for Julio in order to be the constant companion of her husband , who is blinded in battle. Julio, left without the stimulation of frivolous attractions hears the call of duty and enli sts in the French army, where he meets death at the hands of his German cousin when the two face each other in a trench raid. Through it all lire galloping the four horse-men, spoken of by St. John in the.Book of the Apocalypse—the grim fi gures pf Conquest , War, Famine and Death. On Tuesday, May 23, will be shown Dustin Farnum in "Iron t o Gold." The st ory, written by George Owen Baxter , is described as a "western minus a ranch." The scenes are laid in a small mining town and the .surrounding hills. The centra l figures are an outlaw—unjustl y stamped as a criminal- -and a girl whose faith in him is justified lifter various sensational incidents. Around this pair is developed a story of crime, courage, cowardice and cu pidity which should afford fine opportunities to an act or of Dustin Famum's ability and to a support-ing eompimy of the excellence which Fox has undoubtedly supplied. The star 's leading woman in "Iron to Gold" is Margaret Marsh , an actress of beauty and a capable one. DERRY PRESBYTERIAN S. S.

Luttringer Players have been en-gaged to return to Hershey for another season. They were with us last season and the Park Theatre has never had a more successful season. The Lutt ringer production s were excellent in every respect and merited the warm approval of the largely increased number of patrons. The Players won many admirers and friends who will be glad for the privilege of greeting the members of the Luttringer Company upon their return. They will appear in the initial production of the season on Monday evening, May 29, for which evening they have chosen to present the greatest lauglung success of a generation, "Turn to the Right." It will al so be presented on Memorial Day. after-noon and evening, and evening of Wednes-day, May 31. From a most desperate combination of untoward circumstance s a kettle of home-made peach jam points the way to quick riches in "Tu rn to the Right, " the famous Smith-Golden comedy success. The old fashioned delicacy proves to be the silver lining of the clouds formed by other elements of the play—an unpr oductive farm, a debt about to be foreclosed and an erring youth just out of jail with only a pickpocket and a safe burglar to hel p him to success in life. In "Get-Rich-Quick-Wallingford" the hero made a fortune out of a carpet tack. In "The Fortune Hunter" he coined money out of a broken down drug store. In "It Pays to Advertise" he found a fortune in soap, while in "Our Mrs. McChesney" a sharp-witted saleswoman piled up the dollars from an alluring brand of petticoats. In fact fortunes have been made in plays since the days of Colonel Sellers and 'The Gilded Age" when the golden visions of the business opportunist first came to the American stage. Making a forutne out of peach jam may not appeal as a romantic choice for a sophisti-cated author in sea rch of a theme for a play, but there is where one might underestimate the lure of homecooking and the sweel memories of Mother's kitchen which are enshrined in every heart. "Mother Bascum's peach jam. " There's a ring of good old-fashioned sincerity in that brand and nobody in the nobody is surprised at the Croesus-like success of the three nimble wilted youths when they court I he favor of the sweet-toothed public. It all sounds so convincing that every woman is ready to go home and try it out. on her kitchen stove—if she only had Mrs. Bascofn 's recipe. A Woman's Exchange flavor pervades the peach jam idea and it never fails lo hold the interest of the playgoer who t reasurers his "back home" recollections.

Rex Ingram's $1,000,000 production of
"The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse,"
is announced for the Park Theatre May 18,
19 and 20. This will be the first showing
here of the screen version of Vicente Masco
Ibanez's novel that has been acclaimed in
New York, Chicago, Boston, Pitt sburg,
Detroit and Los Angeles as marking a new
epoch in the development of motion pictures.
At its New York opening people paid $10
a seat. Critics said the picture had definitel y
established the screen not only as capable
of rivalling the stage at its best, but of sur-passing
it in its grip upon the emotions.
Readers of the novel will recall that the
story opens on the Argentine ranch of old
Madariaga, whose territ ories are as extensive
as those of the great independent barons of
feudal times. And Madariaga rules with
feudal power. A rioting, roystering despot,
he is filled wi th Castilian pride of family and
yearns for a male child t o carry on his tradi-tion.
His two daughters have married ranch
employees—one French and the other
German. Madariaga's Latin antipathy to
the German son-in-law brings with it a dis-like
of his half-German grandchildren, but
when a son is born to the Frenchman, Des-noyers,
the old man finds hi s dream realized .
The boy, Julio, is selected a s heir to the huge
estate and is brought up as a spoiled prince
of the realm. As a young man Julio becomes
the companion of Madariaga's debauched
adventures ' in Buenos Ayres tango resorts.
But Madariago dies suddenly with out mak-ing
a will and the German branch of the
family finds itself sharing the esta te equally
with the Desnoyers. With his sudden wealth
the two families leave the Argentine for
Europe.
The Desnoyers settle in Paris, and Julio, an
expert tango dancer, becomes the sensation
of the fashionable dance places. He meets a
fascinating little society woman, Marguerite
Laurier, and the two of them are swept into
a reckless love affair that takes no count of
Marguerite's elderly husband. Their butter-fly
mentalities do not respond at first to the
sudden shock of war that breaks about them.
It is 1914 and the Germans are adva ncing
toward Paris. Marguerite is first awakened
to the realizati on of tremendous events.
She joins the French nursing force and
sacrifice s her love for Julio in order to be the
constant companion of her husband , who is
blinded in battle. Julio, left without the
stimulation of frivolous attractions hears the
call of duty and enli sts in the French army,
where he meets death at the hands of his
German cousin when the two face each other
in a trench raid.
Through it all lire galloping the four horse-men,
spoken of by St. John in the.Book of the
Apocalypse—the grim fi gures pf Conquest ,
War, Famine and Death.
On Tuesday, May 23, will be shown
Dustin Farnum in "Iron t o Gold." The
st ory, written by George Owen Baxter , is
described as a "western minus a ranch."
The scenes are laid in a small mining town
and the .surrounding hills. The centra l figures
are an outlaw—unjustl y stamped as a
criminal- -and a girl whose faith in him is
justified lifter various sensational incidents.
Around this pair is developed a story of
crime, courage, cowardice and cu pidity which
should afford fine opportunities to an act or
of Dustin Famum's ability and to a support-ing
eompimy of the excellence which Fox has
undoubtedly supplied.
The star 's leading woman in "Iron to Gold"
is Margaret Marsh , an actress of beauty and
a capable one.
