That there is life in the old sleuth-hound yet was proved by the.'eno_rmous success of Paramount’s “House of Silence” (Wallace Reid) When it was first shown in the big cities of the world. “The House of Silence” will be screened -at the Town Hall {tonight and for the picture lover who likes exciting adventure, hair-breadth escapes and a gripping yet perfectly feasible story, it makes an almost irresistible attraction. The latest Sennett comedy and new gazettes support the star feature. COMING EVENTS AT TOWN HALL. On Monday night Ber-t Lytell will be seen at the ‘Town Hall in a new Metro comedy drama, “Easy to Make Money.” William Farnum in “The Man Hunter” has been booked for Wednesday and Thursday.
