AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODYS’ PICTURES i;KGIXALD RENNV—TO-XIGIIT. WJiat young man Jias never dreamed of returning to the old home town in a limousine and a fortune at his command, to he welcomed hy the cheering villagers? It i- doubtful if any enthusiastic youth ever set forth to wrest wealth and fame from the universe without the mental reservation that he woui'd return and show the home folks they had not appreciated his exceptional talents. This distinctly human trait provides the basis for the plot of " Rolling Home,” William A. Seiter’s latest t'niversal production starring Reginald Denny, which comes to the Rricness Theatre to-night. Denny plays the role of the ambitious wanderer who strays from " Lower Kails ” to conquer the world and shame the Rockefellers and .Morgans with his business sagacity and financial wizardry. Like most young men who had hopes but few plans, he discovers that the wori'd is somewhat reluctant to turn over its riches to him without something in return, and the events which follow his departure from home, with his subsequent return, provides excellent iomwly <>l the usual DennySoiler quality. Supporting the star in "Rolling Home” is an unusually large cast, including .Marion Xixon, K. ■I. RaleliHe, Hen Hendricks. Jr.. .Margaret Seddon, George Xicholls, George .Marion, Anton Vaverka and others. Rex Taylor adapted “ Rolling Home to the screen from the play by John Hunter Hootli. and the continuity was written hy Wili'iam A. Seiter and John .McDermott. A topical and comedy will complete the display to-night.
