THEATERS | 7 LAST TIME—“DRAFT 258” Tonight will be the last showing of that great patriotic film, “Draft 258" at the Rex theater, and there will be another 'record crowd pres- ent. At the opening ‘of this in- tensely interesting production last night the Rex was packed to its doors while a large crowd waited patient- ly on the walk. The verdict was praise on every hand. The Home Guard and the band were special uests of the Rex management and two big spec- the lead attended the second run, packed houses greeting the tacle, with Mabel Taliaferro, celebrated Metro star, in the role. 1t is a story everyone should see. It tells of the brother enmeshed in the snare of German propaganda with views decidedly against . the United States entering the war for humanity. It shows the intrighe of the Teutons. It shows the younger brother drawn®as 258. It shows the patriotic sister and her patriotic sweetheart. It shows how the slack- er was brought to his senses in the clutches of the plotters. It is full of action and is not a war scene pic- ture.

ELKO TONIGHT Six leading men support Mary MacLane, the noted auther, in her first photoplay, ‘‘Men Who Have Made Love to Me,” a George K. Spocr ultra feature, showing at the Elko tonight and Saturday, maticee and evening. These men are her suitors in the play and were hep suitors in, real life —=men of all temperaments 2nd tem- pers—men sentimental and sullen; men practical and brusque, men hon- est and subtle—all losers in this par- ticular quest for love. Her picture, released by George K. Spoor,.is interesting as no other pictures arc; for it comes from a fund of real happenings retold by the woman herself, a woman of re- markable ability to get her love af- fairs before the moviegoer in vivid fashion.

" Comine Attractions. Benjamin Chapin’s splendid motion picture, ' “The Son of ‘Democracy,” based on incidents in Abraham Lin- coln’s life, begins its run at the Elko theater Monday and Tuesday next. It 4s a photoplay that wilk meke you laugh, make you weep, make you think. It is not omnly for “grown- ups.’ It is the sort of picture that delights children, and instructs and inspires them. It will be shown as an added at- traction to Mark Twain’s famous “Tom Sawyer,” featuring Jack Pick- ford. - WHAT WILL BE NEXTY What is coming next? Well, for me thing, there wil be local option slections in March in a number of Minnesota cities and villages in the remaining 26 wet counties. Judging by past results, there will be further losses for the wets in these elec. tions. By experience they have learned to be prepared for the worst, and practically all Minnesota brew- ers have laid their plans ahead by making investments in other lines of business agamst the time w~hen the entire state goes dry.
