EVERYBODY’S

“REJUVENATING AUNT MARY” The story of a boy who led his relatives to believe that he was a doctor whereas he was really a motor racing driver, is the theme of “The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary,” which is at present being shown at the Everybody’s Theatre. May Robson is seen as the old auntie, and Harrison Ford is Jack, her nephew. The trouble commences when Aunt Mary decides to visit Jack at his hospital. With the help of his friend, Mel, Jack manages to change his premises sufficiently to deceive his aunt. Meanwhile, at the track, Mel is feverishly awaiting Jack’s arrival, for the starter has given him one minute to get his driver up to the starting line! Jack tears down the road in a taxi, hotly pursued by motor cops, leaps from the cab into the racer and’ the race is on! It is a thrilling crosscountry affair. Mel is overcome and auntie takes his place, finishing in the driver’s seat in a most spectacular manner. Auntie realises that Jack is no doctor, but she loves him for it. Her reunion with the judge, too, has caused her to take a new lease of life, and her visit to a beauty parlour brings still further changes. A U.F.A. film, full of delightful scenes of life amid the mountaineers in the Tyrolean Alps, is the second attraction.

Dolores Dei Rio. the beautiful and charming “Charmaine” of “What Price Glory,” will have the stellar role in the New Fox film production, “No Other Woman.” In this production, Miss Del Rio is gi,ven ample opportunity to wear some striking costumes. She is particularly fond of Spanish shawls and one in particular she treasures above all others in her collection. This one is worn by her as an evening wrap in one of the main sequences of the photoplay. Much care must be taken when Francis X. Bushman is before the Camera if his eyes are to be brought out clearly in the picture, for he has the most peculiar eyes of anyone in the profession. They are pale blue in colour and when photographed witi. at sufficient light and “magenta” screens on the lights they look white on the screen. Many close-up shots of Bu n man’s eyes are to be seen in “Grip of the Yukon,” the Universal picture, and careful study, will show why they are difficult to photograph. Others in the all-star cast are Neil Hamilton, June Marlowe, James Farley, Otis Harlan and Burr Mclntosh. Ernst Laemmlo directed the picture.
