FRANK MANTELL Drill by National Guard Company Do not miss this 7 p.m.-- ‘THE CITY OF MASKS’ TELLS NOVEL PHASE OF NEW YORK LIFE Robert Warwick’s Picture Is Adopted From Popular McCutcheon Story In “The City of Masks,” coming to the Elko theatre next Wednesday and Thursday, Robert Warwick leads a “double life.” Generally this term has a rather unsavory significance. But in this picture the masquerading results in a story that is refreshingly novel in plot. The “city of masks” in New York, and, according to George Barr Mc- Cutcheon, author of story, the met- ropolis is crowded with chauffeurs and governesses and politicians who Tonight THEATRE NEWS , ELKO Matinees Daily 3:00 Nights at 7:30 and 9:00 Priceless to Patrons WILL ROGERS IN NEWEST PICTURE Popular Star of “Almost a Hus- band” and ‘“Jubilo,” at Grand Theatre Tuesday and Wednesday The unique personality of Will Rogers is revealed to advantage in the new production, *ine Strange Boarder,” which will be shown next Tuesday and Wednesday at the Grand theatre. Will Rogers plays the ,role of Sam Gardner, a rancher who is a modest man, a real American country type, who is game through all his misfortunes, and who, for the sake of other people, makes sacrifices which reveal the manhood underly- ing the frank, rugged honest surface. Sam is the father of a little boy for whom he is willing to sacrifice even his life and it is mainly for the are really persons of noble rank dis-{.pjjq's sake that he is inveigled into guising their identities in humble oc- cupations. Once a week they meet at a certain house and dress and act as they did in “the good old days.” Mr. Warwick has the role of a chauffeur, whi is Sir Eric Temple to his fa- miliars. He falls in love with a gov- erness, also of noble birth, and, while protecting her from the attentions of her rich employer’s son ,becomes in- volved in adventures with counter- feiters and the police, finally carrying the day, of course. bines personal charm with the gro- tesqueness of farce-comedy make-up. The plot of the comedy is not of more account than is wsual in such cases, but the business of the pic- ture, without being vulgar or in the least objectionable, is screamingly funny. The cast, in addition to Louise Fazenda, has Bert Roach, Charlotte Mineau, John Henry, Jr., Billie Bevan and Billie Armstrong, the Sennett dog and a cow. On the usual thread of romance are hung a series of amus- ing situations, and one of the most original is where one of the “fighting gentlemen” attempts to keep the tail of the cow he is milking still by tying it to his suspenders. When the cow Fazenda was never more attractive|takes fright and decides to make her than in this picture, in which she com- getaway it is easy to imagine what selling his ranch and taking up a supposedly good proposition, which turns out anything but profitable for him. Will Rogers is supported = by a striking cast summoned by Director Clarence Badger, prominent among which are Irene Rich, Jimmy Rogers, son of the popular actor, James Ma- son, Doris Pawn, Lionel Belmore, Jack Richardson ,Sydney Deane and Louise J. Durham. The picture was photographed by Marcel LePicard. o~~~ happens. This, however, is only the outcome of another funny incident in which the dog and a couple of his grown-up playmates are engaged in a game of “blind man’s buff” and he who happens to be chosen “it” gets in the way of an old-fashioned swing in motion. He is knocked into the midst of several hives of bees, and his mad rugh to escape the stings of the insects sets several other comedy properties in motion. An old auto- mobile, a team of horses in & run- away dash, driven by a tiny baby boy, and various persons on bicycles and otherwise propelled enter in the chase. Another amusing and original incident is where Louise Fazenda, in a perfectly modest bathing suit, is fished from the stream by the hook of a young man’s fishing pole. i 2o
