PARAMOUNT THEATRE.
. Constance Talmadgo is seen at her best in "Venus of Venice," which is being screened at tho Paramount Theatre. The story of a little Venetian madcap with a penchant for thievery, possesses all those elements which go to mako a thor-
oughly: enjoyable production. Playing opposite Miss Talmadge ("Carlotta") is ■-Antonio Moreno, who, as a romantic young American artist, meets her while she is on one of her wild escapades. His efforts to curb her addiction to stealing bring surprising complications, and provide many a laughable mo : uient. There is as usual an excellent programme. The incidental music by the Para-
mount Orchestra, under tho direction of Mr. Robert Caulton, leaves nothing to be desired. The finalists of the screen star contest which is now in the concluding stages will appear in the Paramount' Theatre on Friday. Crowded audiences everywhere have greeted the contestants on their four. In addition to the parade in which tha finalists appear, special screen tests of the candidates '• are shown at every performance, and also" a' most interesting actIng test is presented on tho stage. The box Plan is now open at the theatre booking office.
