The congress of the United States has imposed upon the Red Cross a continuing tesponsibility abroad by authorizing the secretary of war to transfer to the American Red Cross such surplus army medical supplies and supplementary and dietary fopd stuffs now in Europe as shall not-be required by theé army, to be used by the Red Cross to relieve the distress which continues in certa‘m countries of Europe as a result of the war. “To finance these operations, to conclude work which was begun durmg the war, and to carry out some comparatwely in- expensive. constructive plans for assisting peoples-in eastern Europe to develop their own welfare organization, the Ame ican Red Cross reqmres in addition to membership- fees, a sum of money, small in comparison with the gifts pouring into its treasury by our generous people during the war. “Both the greater enduring domestic program and the lesser temporary foreign program of the Red Cross deserve enthusiastic support, and I venture to hope that its peace-tlme membership will exceed rather than fall below its impressive war-membership. “WOODROW WILSON.” NEWS OF THE f THEATERS } | GRAND TONIGHT. ‘Marguerite Clark, the Paramonnt comedienne is the star in *“Still Waters.” a <tory of circus and canal- boat life, written especially for Miss Clark, by Edith Barnard Delano. This charming photoplay will be pre- sented at the Grand theatre tonight. Miss Clark is a de’ighttul little girl I'ving en a e~nal boat with a stern «0ld grandf-hter, who forbids her to Jave anvtti=e to do with the outside world. Fretting under the restraint, she ckips away from the boat and reete a voung doctor—the first man that she ha< really been brought into contact with. , Then a circus comes to the town, {alameside of which the canal boat is moenred Carried away by the gla- morr of the show and angered by the apparent duplicity of her lover. the girl s awav and joins the circus. Her de’ichtful little romance comes to a cudden end. and she finds her- self the object of the rinrmaster’s i'l- conceived attentions. She is ulti- mately saved and finds love. That is the bare outline of the plot - which abounds in delightful romance and quaint comedy. Therg is an ele- . ment of mystery in the identity of a jcircus rider whose place the- little . Nesta takes when she suddenly faints ‘E’in the middle of a performance. .- Wmiam Farnum never has ap- ]peared in a screen production that ‘was not strong in love interest. “Riders of the Purple Sage,” last i time tonight at the Rex, not an ex- ! ception. It is the love theme that ‘makes the story—the slow burning i love of Lassiter for Jane Withersteen . the girl who was so rich in worldly ‘goods and so poor in friendships— : the wild youthful love of Venters for . : Millie Erne—and, perhaps best of all, i the love of Shefford forthe girl he bad : never seen but whom he was to rec- - ognize eventually 7as ‘the Sago " Lily.” The fire of love leaps from nearly ‘every foot of film of -both this power- ful Zane Grey story. And it is the true, wholesome, honest love of per- sons who have been réared in the great out-of-doors! There is not a scene, a sub-title—not even a flash— to detract by the smallest measyre from the clean, pure atmosphere of the pictures. A Fox Sunshine comedy will also be shown, “The Son of a Hun.” MITCHELL LEWIS SATURDAY. “Jacques of the Silver North,” Mitchell Lewis’ latest Select picture which will be seen tomorrow at the Rex theatre is a delightfully human picture of the people of the North- west. 1t is the story of Jacques La Rouge, a Canuck trapper, whose de- votion to Memory Baird is like that of a dog to its master. He worships her and he sacrifices everything for her happiness. Among those seen in Ithe cast are Fritzi Brunette, Mur- dock MacQuarrie, James Gordon and Capt. C. A. Van Auker. REX SUNDAY. “The Man Who Stayed at Home,” the Screen Classics, Inc., production of the famous stage play which ran four years in London and two years in New York, will be the feature at all-star cast of renowned players. all-tar cast of renowned players. STORY OF WILDERNESS. “Forest Rivals,” the picture which comes to the Elko theatre tonight, is another story of the wilderness. Arthur Ashley are co-stars. Here is anothe rstory of the wilderness. Alive with tense scenes. The prime- val passions of two backwoods lovers of the one girl' wonderfully visua- lized! The story tells of the at- tempts of two French-Canadian liqu- or smugglers to marry the omne girl, and her romance. with a young en- gineer. The story is filled with thrill- ing action and delightful romance. Other attractions at the Elko to- night are a Harold Lloyd comedy en- titled “Look Out Below,” and an edu- cational film. A THRILLING PHOTOPLAY. The big Paramount-Artcraft spe- cial, “The Dark Star,” based upon Robert W. Chambers’ famous novel of the same name, is a thrilling pho- toplay and has scored a decided hit .
