'WAR SAVINGS STAMPS ISSUED BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT i rapid succession. THEATERS | GRAND TONIGHT Platonic friendship - has always been a great source of argument. Some hold it as harmless and others regard it as mischievous. In Tri- angle’s great photoplay, “The Argu- ment,” which will be shown at the Grand theater tonight, platonic friendship leads to tragedy. - “The Argument” is a tremendous story of the emotions, and will make a mark in the minds of millions. This story was written by Ira (Jack) Cunning- ham, son of M. F. Cunningham of this city. An added attraction at the Grand tonight and tomorrow is the famous “Fatty” Arbuckle in his new Para- mount two-part comedy ‘“The Bell Boy.” This comedy is having its first Minneapolis run at the Strand theater this week. ELKO TONIGHT There are ‘society’” films, films showing the struggles of the poor to make a living, and films dealing with the lives of the ultra-rich. But a photoplay that combines all these phases of life and still others is a rare treat. It is to be found in “The Trouble Buster,”” an _attractively cheerful film starring Vivian Mar- tin at the Elko theater tonight. This pleasing feature was shown here for one day only during ‘‘heatless” days and is returned that those who miss- ed the iritial showing may have an opportunity to see this exceedingly pleasing feature. The same applies to “Son-of His Father,” featuring Charles Ray, which will be at the Elko tomorrow, Saturday. Elko Sunday. The motion picture ‘“fan’” of to- day demands thrills, adventure, love interest;fand: ‘‘something to carry home arnd think about.” In “Quo Vadis”—newly revised and elabor- ated—he will get all of this and more. He will have more thrills than he' ever had in one evening in his. life;" he transforms' bdse metal into pure gold; he will see the downfall of the most autocratic government in ancient times and the birth and spread of the Christian faith. The revised and elaborated edition of the greatest of photodramas, ‘“Quo Vadis,” will be shown at.the Elko theater next Sunday and Monday. THRILLING PRODUCTION One of the mort intensely absorb- ing motion picture productions ever seen in Bemidji was that at the Rex theater last evening when Selznick presented “The Lone Wolf” starring Hazel Dawn. It is in-eight reels and is chock full of action from start to finish, thrilling events following in It will be shown again tonight. The story is of a noted Paris crook whose startling robberies are done alone and he becomes celebrated as the Lone Wolf, he having no con- federates. In the course of these ad- ventures, he meets a wonderful girl who, he believes, is herself a crook, but who is in reality a secret ser- vice agent. The Lone Wolf sayes her from the pack and they escape from France to England in an aero- plane, after several stormy scenes in which they pass through many thrill- ing perils. In the end the girl dis- closes her identity but lets the Wolf escape under the promise of reforma- tion, and it is left to the spectators to imagine a subsequent reunion of \the couple, under happier and more tender circumstances. “The Debt of Homor.” In “The Debt of Honor,” at the Rex Saturday, Peggy Hyland makes her debut as a star under the banner of William Fox. Taken all in all the debut is most auspicious. She has been provided witlr a good support- ing cast, a production not only lavish but perfect in detail, and above all a good story. So perfectly does it fit her distinctive type of beauty, her youth, her manner of acting and her every mannerism that it seems it must have been conceived and written in her mind, and her alone, as the star. If this is the case then the more to be commended is the work of Eve Unsell, the author. Also a good comedy. £ Coming Sunday. Wonderful Emiiy Stevens in “Day- break,” a Metro. William S.
