Seven reels in all. Elko Tonight. Among the many lnterestlng feat- res displayed by the production of Barbary Sheep” are the views of life in Algeria setting forth the mystery, fascination and strange at- mosphere of the desert. Charged with the heat, passion and swift ac- tion that befit a daring romance of this country, ‘“Barbary Sheep’’ prom- ises to attract and hold the immedi- ate attention of the audience from beginning to end. GRAND TONIGHT The new Triangle feature, “The Food Gamblers,” is a picture that is at once one of the most up-to-the- minute-subjects and one of the most constructive plays that has ever been released by any program, bar none. Anyone who is interested in the high cost of living—and it would be hard these days to find one who is not— will be interested in this picture. At the present time it would be hard to conceive of anything that is more universally present in people’s minds. The remarkable thing about “The Food Gamblers” is that it does not merely show up an evil condition— in this case the glaring abuses of the middleman system—but indi- cates and starts a remedy. In a cer- tain sense, the exhibitor who shows “The Food Gamblers” on his pro- gram is fulfilling a civie duty. Grand Thursdav and Friday.

It will be given in the Elks’ hall which has been donated for the oc- casion and there will be tables in one of the rooms for card playing.
