FIGURES DON'T LIE
An irate wife attempting to shoot
her husband's beautiful blonde secretary, a thrilling rescue of that secretary from a treacherous surf, a tender love scene in which suspicious
circumstances are explained; all these
are pictured in Paramount's clever
production "Figures Don't Lie" starring Esther Ralston, which comes to
the Kentucky Theater tonight and tomorrow night.
Miss Ralston takes the part of a
private secretary who carries on the
business of her employer, Ford Sterling. While doing so she wins the
love of Richard Arlen.
Thrill follows thrill and laugh succeeds laugh until Arlen rescues Miss
Ralston from drowning.
Then the
secretary finds herself in a still more
dangerous spot when, garbed only in
a silk quilt, she is confronted in her
employer's home by, the jealous wife,

Edward Sutherland, the man who
made "We're in the Navy Now" and
many other successes, directed the

"RICH BUT HONEST"
That a man may be rich but honest
is the theme of a clever Fox Films
comedy drama, which is based on a
story by Arthur Somers Roche, coming to the Ben Ali Theater next
Thursday for a three day showing.
This is one picture that gives the
rich young man courting a working
girl a chance to prove that wealth is
not synonymous with evil intentions
in young men who pay court to poor
girls.
Three acts of vodvil including an
act by Elliott Dexter, movie star,

and the University of Kentucky are now offering an
example which might well be called to the attention of
Harvard and Princeton.
If the student bodies of those
great institutions took such an attitude, the breach of
relations between the football teams of the two schools
would have been impossible.
In the interchange of
polite resolutions between the student bodies of these
two neighborly schools there is nothing of the empty
gesture.
Their chivalry is worthy of the days when
"knighthood was in flower."
The faith expressed by
both that the friendly relations will continue is fully
justified and there is no cause for fear of any difficulties
between the students of the two schools so long as such
a spirit is preserved among the students of both of them.
