It is called The Kiss, and was filmed in the most picturesque spots in. Southern California from the story by John-stq- n LitMcCullev, originally called f tle Erolinda. Under drowsibg pepper trees that encircle a magnificent old hacienda, a girl dreams of Audre Baldarama, son of the feudal don who rules Southern California in the golden age of love ancl battle. How she lifts herself from the low station to which she had been born and becomes the loved one of the gallant young aristocrat ,is a point in the story reached only after a series of the most startling adventure. Jack Conway, noted as a leading man and a director, produced The Kiss, using the actual locale of the Southern original story, California, where the original haciendas of the old ;dops are still crumbling to an honorable decay, their dust sanctified in the glorious history' of the republic. William E. Lawrence plays the principal masculine role in the stars support, appearing as Audre Baldarama, a warlike young caballero. George Periolat depicts the heroic role of the elder Baldarapna, while P. J. Lockpey plays the role of the girls father, Selistino Vargas. The second feminine role is played by vivacious Jean Acker, while Ed Brady and J. J. Lanoe are seen in clever I characterizations. j i Saturday, childrens meeting. 1 and 2:15 P.M. I7:45 and 9:15 P.M.
