NEWS OF THE THEATRES 'K . PICKFORD 4 AT GRAND SUNDAY The. chivalry, of southern gentle- ‘men, the sturdy textile of Kentucky ‘women, the wholesome, hard ccharac- . ter of its mountain folk; the thrill of ;' pre-war days of 61 supply the at- mosphere for = Jack Pickford’s first Goldwyn production, “The Little Shepherd of Klngdom Come,” adapted * from John Fox, Jr.’s celebrated novel of the same name. As the mountain whose sturdy character -and sun- lhiny charm attract the attention and friendship of those whom he meets, Jack Pickford is unusually interest- ing. Wallace Worseley directed this picture in whose cast will be- found such well-known favorites' as-Clara Hoflon, Pauline Starke and James ‘Neill. - ADDED ATTRACTIONS AT GRAND TONIGHT The crafty work of a kleptomaniac and the evil possibilities of hypnotism form the basis of the plot of “Black Shadows,” a Willlam Fox production featuring Peggy Hyland, which. will appear at the Grand theatre tonight. | “This . is & mystery play which makes a peculiarly ‘strong heart ap-|- peal, since it deals with unjust accu- sations against the heroine, who ac- cepts the situation in order to shield the sister of the man loves. It is ‘said that Miss Hyland handles _'the intensely dramatic situations in the play with exceeding cleverness. “Andy” and “Min”, the famous characters in ‘“The Gumps” cartoons, will make their initial appearance as an added attraction in “Andy Spends a Quiet Day at riome,” and the pro- gram includes “The Home of the Seminole,” an educational travelogue subject. RELIGION OR LOVE ‘Which is stronger—a— man's re- ligion or his love? We are inclined to believe that when that crack shot little Dan Cupid, sends a love arrow into the heart of a preacher, said preacher behaves very much like any other man in love. Can a preacher " be jealous? What about his Chris- tian charity? Well, charity is said to cover a multitude of sins, but it isn’t on record in the good book or elsewhere that a multitude includes stealing another man’s girl. Suppose‘ you were the preacher, and a slick city guy stole your girl. Would you hate him? Would you be jealous? Don’t miss seeing Monte Blue in: the tragic role of ‘“Sherd Raines,”.the circuit-rider lover of ‘‘Easter Higks,” played by Mary Miles Minter, in one ; of the loveliest stories ever put upon the screen.

BOND - AT REX SATURDAY | Whatever Tom Mix, the Fox star, may think of the east, his belief in the west and the spirit of the west is unlimited. In the country he comes from, he says, he has been used to dealing with men whose word was equal to_their bond. - There was no equivocating and no reservations. Once, when he was buying cattle in the northwest, he meeded money to carry his deal. He went to the bank: and laid his case before the banker, saying he needed money for cattle, for feed, and for all .the details of the deal; however, he did not know exactly what amount he would re- quire, and would like to know for what amount they would trust him. Such was the reputation of Tom Mix in that community that the banker told him to go ahead, draw on the bank for what he wanted, and ‘when they thought he had enough they would step him. He’went on with his deal and drew $36,000 before it was finished. Then of:course he was able the bank. “THE FLAPPER” “Peck’s Bad Boy,” the much touted juvenile - incorrigible - of erstwhile tame, had nothing on “The: Flapper” torwild, -flighty ideas. Only ‘““The Flapper’s’* badness never went furth- er than the make-believe stage. . However,.this stage becomes migh- ty serious sometimes, particularly when it is carried to the point where those who are looking on believe. that. it is the real thing. This happens in “The Flapper,” Olive Thomas’ latest Selznick picture, which will be shown at the Elke theatre for twogdays bes ginning tomorrow, Friday.
