MIX—REX TONIGHT. £ Tonight at the Rex, William Fox will present that western character LR actor, Tom Mix, in “Fame and For- ; tune,” adapted from *‘Slow Burgess,” § i i § i by Alden Seltzer, produced .y the 7 B Fox corporation. It is an absorbing production and § shows Mix in one of his best and g latest roles, depicting a story of 8 . warm hearts and cold lead. b James J. Corbett will also be ol shown in another episqde of i his thrilii serial, “The Midnight x i H ) Man.” This series .as been popular with the patrons and the one book- ed for tonight will be specially inter- esting. “SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE” THREE DAYS—REX THEATRE = Tomorrow, continuing three days, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, there will be produced at the Rex one of the greatest screen features before the public today. “Soldiers of For- tune,” that is playing at the leading theaters in the metropolitan theaters. 1t is from the book by Richard Hard- duction, based on an Augustus Thomas dramatization. According to all adv:}nce notices and criticisms, Mr. Dwan has brought the characters of the story to life in a jnanner which lives up to the way in which our imagination has pictured them. As the story is the gripping dramatic type that Mr. Da- vis wrote, there are rescues, raids and. action galore; also the sort of love interest in this Realare Picture that all delight in seeing on the screen. Richard Harding Davis’ story, “Soldiers of Fortune” is a photoplay of the great outdoors, big in spirit and vitality, interesting in its pictur- jzation of love and thrilling adven- ture. There will be added features pre- sented also, including a ecomedy riot and the Fox “World’s News.” LAST CHANCE TO GO TO THE FILM CIRCUS It is just like goinng to the circus to see Miss Shirley Mason in the Fox picture, “Her Elephant Man,” which . is showing at the Grand theater for the last time tonight.
