' "1. , " REPOnT IS EXAGGERATED COMMISSIONER LEE SAYS the Ti eaters Academy : Bijou : Victoria : Royal : Grand GRAND "Ghosts of Yesterday." the Selznick picture now showing-rat the Grand theater, has every ingredient that makes for an unusually . successful pic ture. Norma Talmadge is- star, the story is written by .Rupert - Hughes, and Eugene O'Brien is the male. lead. : Tt is seldom that a picture gives a 6U; such a rare opportunity -for-emotional aGting aa.does this production, and Miss Talmadge takes complete ad vantage of the situations 'which take place in gorgeous scene ; settings of Paris, and in the humble atmosphere at the East Side in New York city. The story by . Rupert" Hughes is told with all that master -craftsman's skill of delineation of character and origi nality of plot. - On the death of his wife Howard Marston goes to: Paris to forget his grief. Accompanying him is a half finished portrait' of his wife. In the wild revelry of the- Bal Tabarin he meets a dancer who "resembles his dead loved one with startling likeness, and he persuades her to poseTfor him. Thy fall in love with 'each -f other, -but his tardiness . in recognizing' the fact almost culminates a tragedy which leads to a smashing big climax. ROYAL Among the interesting Incidents "in "Even As Eve." the First National pic ture adapted from "The Shining Band," the fascinating story by I the. fa.mous author, Robert W. Chambers, are the icenes in the swimming pool, in the fastnesses of the: Adirondaeks, where a gioup of weajthy .clubmen have. . a summer home.

''There the men and the women disport " themselves wandering about tne gardens in their beautiful decolette bathing gowns or plunging into t$e pool. It is well worth a. front seat to thc-se who lean toward a generous display of feminine ankles and limbs to see this part of the picture alone, not counting all the thrjlling. moments. in the dramatic story and the Intense act tion of the play throughout. . 7 BIJOU . E The final release in thejseries of big outdoor western dramas starring Tom Santschi at : the head of an all-star cast, Jls "The Law of the Woods" and is the attraction at the Bijou for today.

T, Lee, of the corporation commission, says that he had no idea now of not being a candidate to succeed himself two years hence, when his term of office expired.
