PARAMOUNT THEATRE.
The realistic adaptation of the famous Drury Lane success, " Decameron Nights," is enjoying a popular run at the Paramount Theatre. It is claimed to be the most spectacular subject yet filmed. Boccaccio's tales are treated in such- a delicate and masterful manner that the entertainment is of the:highest quality. A, nicely varied assortment of supporting pictures is shown.
, " THE SPOILERS." I There are few, if any, picture patrons who did not see the epoch-making production of Rex Beach's novel of adventure in Alaska, " The Spoilers," made ten years ago by William Selig. It ib safe to say that everyone who saw that picture will want to see Jesse D. Hampton's new screen version of it made at the Goldwyn studios under the direction of Lambert Hillyer, and that everyone who did not see the first picturisation will make certain of seeing the new one. It will be seen at the Paramount Theatre on Friday. There is perhaps :no novel of. tho century which lends itself more readily to screen treatment. It pictures vividly the adventures, hardships, the rampant greed, and the devotiou which were so forcibly brought out among the people taking part m the great Klondike gold" rush. It is filled to the brim with just such rapid action, big dramatic .moments, and strenuous conflicts as screen patrons delight in. Its producer spared no expense and no pains in making, this new production as far in advance of the first screen version of the story as that picture was in advance of other feature productions I of its clay. The cast is. a notable one, including Milton Sills, Barbara Bedford, Anna Q. Nilsson, Noah Beery, and other famous players, , : , I
