Heading its- distinguished cast are Margaret Livingston, Harrison Ford, Wallace McDonald and Henry Kolker. "Hell's Four Hundred" is the i|fune which the producers have given to that picturesque set of entertainers —-the chorus girls of Broadway. The quest of one of these girls for a millionaire husband is the pivofai theme of the story. Her ex-t periences in l pursuing a matrimonial alliance with wealth to rescue her from a lowly rooming house existence in the Roaring Forties, are amusing and laughprovoking —although the element of strong drama is present throughout. It has an engrossing story, a picturesque background and a popular cast of capable players. They combine, into a production that, will not disappoint the most discriminating. , "THE PHANTOM BULLET." Hoot Gibson, the screen's most famous delineator of cowboy roles, will b«> seen in "The Phantom Bullet," a link versal-Jewel at the Maoriland on Monday. Cinema experts have pronounceded this picture Hoot's greatest effort so far. In it, the Western star gives to his portrayal a-depth of characterization, both dramatic and humorous that t shows a new side to this already mauysjded screen luminary. His lighter moments are masterpieces of portrayal. His impersonation of the timid, rabbit-like "sap" brings him to tho fore in that exclusive circle* of star comedians and the dramatic suddenness with which he resumes his own character is a cinema moment that will" live for a long time.
