’S’I.ABT FIGHT ‘AT THE mflmuu } “Custer’s Last Fight” will be seen’ " tonight at]] the Rex. This is a Thomas H. Ince roductlon ‘and promises ‘to " be athriller with plenty of action from 'start to finish. Indians galore -and an old time massacre. THREE-PLY ROLE W. Somerset Maugham’s’ well . knmown stage. farce, ‘‘Jack Straw,” “has been adapted into a delightful - :gereen comedy, with Robert, Warwick as the star, which plays last times at the Elko theatre tonight. The story centers around Jack -Straw, an iceman, who has fallen in ‘Jove with the pretty daughter of a clerk. When her family get enorm- <ously” wealthy and depatrs for Cali- fornia, he.follows. There he turns / up as a waiter. In the three-ply role of iceman, waiter and nobleman Robert War- wick was pever more happily cast. He makes of Jack Straw a buoyant, likable personality. . Of:scarcely less * merit is the performance of Carroll McComes, long a favorite in musical comedy and now making her screen debut ‘in the part of the girl. . Sylvia Ashton, J. M. Dumont and Charles Ogle are in the supporting company. Seldom lnvu the piquant talents of Marion Davies been given a more de- lightful means of expression’ on the screen than in “April.Folly,” the photoplay in which she. appears at the Ellko ‘theatre Sunday and Mon- day. The story - is. from Cynthia * Stockley’s novel of the same name. In the main story ,April takes the place of Lady. Diana Mannister, about ‘to sail for South Africa with a precious jewel. - April is trailed by diamond thieves and detectives and |} - is saved from a fatal encounter with{} - the former by a young:man, Kerry Sarle, who falls in love with her. By a clever trick-she: defeats her enem- jes and brings the adventure to a succeesful close. gomvay Tearle is the leading man, and J. Herbert Frank is the “heavy.” The first Paramount-St. John thunder -storm Egl laughter is also . coming to the Elko theatre on Sun. ; day .and Monday. It is called “Speed” and is full of funny and ? “hold your breath’” situations. 3 The Elko orchestra,. playing at 4 Sunday evening performance is an , added high class attraction. POWERFUL STORY No ordinary story is ‘“The Woman in Room 13.” No collection of cut- * and-dried complications which have . been seen before on the screen and whose outcome can be seen by the “"‘T‘he’ Womon .io Room_ 13" in its | mystery is baffling. . It twists into lthe most amazing ' and unexpected.| channels. . It tantalizes, suggests a' golution, throws the audience off the|. trail and plays with the imagination as a skilled: magician would ; play with his audience when he banters and baffles’at the same moment. “Who was the woman in room 137" This is the big question that the au- dience ‘tries in vain to answer. 'So skillfully is the mystery of her iden- tity concealed by these two great playwrights and by the capable direc- tion of Frank Lloyd that the question looms into gigantic importance. Nor is this a .one-angle play, depenu.ng on the one big problem for its ter- rific. grlp» and. universal appeal. ‘A Big, prominent cast, headed by Pauline Frederick who is ably sup- ported by Robert McKim, Sidney Ainsworth, Margaret Snow, Kate Les- ter and Richard Tucker. “The Woman in Room 13" -and Hank Mann in a 2-part comedy, en- titled .‘“Broken Bubbies” will be at the Grand Sunday and Monday. ) USB!TOO’!"
