FILLED WITH HUMOR - Jack Pickford, the talented young star in “The Dummy,” an entertain- ing Paramount picture, will be seen at the Grand Theatre Thursday and “The Dummy” is an adapta- 'tion of the well known play of that name, and affords Jack a chance for the inimitable touches of humor and real boy-life of which he is past mas- ter. 3 Those who saw him as “Willjam,” thero of the photoplay adaptation of Booth Tarkington’s celebrated novel, “Seventeen,” and as “Pip” in Dick- ens’ ‘“Great ‘Expectations” will re- member his work with pleasure, and in “The Dummy” he has excelled even these records. S e ey FRONTIER DAYS ARE VIVIDLY RECALLED All the glamor of the frontier west is portrayed in the -old-time dance ‘hall scenes of “The Beast,” a William Fox production ~in which George Walsh has made a tremendous hit. This dance hall is a bona fide repro- duction of the rough place of am sement that was—and in places still is—the one center of enjoyment for isolated cowmren and miners. The curtained booth into which a city girl i8 entrapped by a thieving Mexican ‘and finally kidnapped by the cowboy turned caveman, still is to be seen in some out-of-the-way places of the ‘West and Southwest. ‘““The Beast,” which will be shown at the Grand Theatre Satuday and Sunday is a ‘Powerful picturization of the redeem- ing force of love.

Despite -.In “L’Apache,” the Paramount- Artcraft picture produced by Thomay H. Ince, which is coming to the Elko theatre Friday and Saturday, Doro- thy Dalton appears in the type of role which first won her fame. . You’ve seen Dorothy Dalton as a western dance hall girl—as a travel- ing saleswoman—as a trained nurse —as a society woman— You've seen her in almost every conceivable role, and you've liked her work in every one, haven't you? But conceive of Miss Dalton as a Parisian Apache—an American girl in those mysterfous haunts of Paris that the police never enter. And imagine the fire, the emotion, the beauty tha; she would throw into such a role. It is a stirring drama of thrills, adventure, and love. Robert Ellictt is Miss Dalton’s leading man.

When Wallace Reid injects his breezy personality into a smashing farce comedy like “The Lottery Man’’ screen audiences can expect things to hum. They do. Many at the Elko theatre last evening, where the Para- mount-Artcraft picture will again ap- pear tonight, recalled when the orig- inal story scored such an emphatic hit as a stage play. “The Lottery Man” is above the average run of screen comedies, not only because it is unusually well done but also because it embodies a brand new, laugh-getting idea. Wallace Reid is the dashing hero from his toes up. Wanda Hawley is very easy to look at as the girl and acts the part with good taste and skill. Harrison Ford, is excellent 1n the role of the “lottery man’s” pal. Choice of seats is assured only to those who come early to the Elko. Please try to remember we have urged that you ‘“‘come early,” also to see pictures ‘“from the start, not backward.” PESRASES SN IRRG Want comfort? You get it at the Elko and Grand. -~
