ENTERTAINMENTS.
Wlhat may happen to the modern jazz girl in her pursuit of pleasure-at-any-cost, is vividly portrayed in William de Mille’s latest Paramount picture, “Nice People,” which will be shown at the Empire Theatre on Saturday afternoon and evening. The producer has achieved the unique distinction of presenting a vital problem of to-day in a manner that is entertaining, amusing and artistically perfect. Rachael Crother’s play, of the same name, furnished the theme for Mr de Mille’s screen drama. Clara Beranger, who adapted the story for t'he screen, followed the original play in most important matters, while adding several valuable scene sequences which the limitations of the stage forbade in the original story.
