TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER'S, 1820 | VELLE AND DANE ... ! PRESENT NOVEL ACT /It rewards of merit were to be of- ‘fered for original ideas, LeVelle and Dane who appear at the closing act on the Valudeville program at the /@rand Friday, would be entitled to 7t Happened in Arizona.” an éntirely new idea brimful of witty iines. For once a sketch has been written in‘which no antique comedy ‘lines find a resting place. It tells of the mishaps of a married couple who take thefr vacation in the form of a motorcycle trip” thru the desert of Arizona. . The machine breaks down and ‘Is repaired only after exasper- ating efforts on the part of the pair. B6th are costumed In khaki, the lady wearing the regulation motorcyclists Xnee pants and thereby hangs a tale. 4t is a little thing and shows hdw ittle things can please an audience to enthusiastic happy laughter. When the 1ady in khaki pants leans against the barbed wire fience of the Arizoria desert she says things, she.gives ut- terance to as fine a line of comedy talk ;as ever graced the vaudeville stage. For the rest of the act, it is immense. The dialogue is well writ- ten and perfectly delivered. The at- mosphere of the playlet is helped most "beautifully by a stage setting showing the desert in all its illustra- tiveness. An Indian song is introduced by the male member who is a splendid singer. 1t is an act that will more than justify. the® good things said about it for it hasbesides its splen- did entertaining qualities a series of most amusing situations. A won- derful stage setting and two artists ‘who can be relied upon to give per- .fect representation of a magried couple who love, honor and obey each other, except in instances. “THE GIRL OF THE SEA”—GRAND TONIGHT A storm af sea, the crash of the bjg ship on the shoals, the waters pound- ing’ it to pieces, and death in the deep, with only a single survivor. This is one of the big scenes in “‘Girl of the Sea,” which will be the feat- ure attraction at the Grand for three days commencing tonight. Betty Hilburn, the beautiful six- teen-year-old screen artist is the feat- ured player in the production which was made by the Submaripe Film corporation, owners of the Suhmarine Tube, an apparatus which &nables them to take photoplays beneath the cean, not without danger as several encounters with-sharks and glant devil fish have attested. Exteriors for “Girl of the Sea” were made on a small island in’the ‘West Tndies known as “Devil's Reef,” Here the survivor from the shipwreck —a mere child, is washed ashore and for a number of years lives'alone in a cavern or in the waters surround- ing the reef. When a rescuing party finally reaches the island they find ‘her ‘a primitive being, ‘'who knows nothing of the outside world. Drama enters the story and pro- vides a series of thrilling situations both above and bemeath the waters, and Miss ‘Hilburn i3 called upon to perform : sqme : hazardous aquatic stunts. The story is unfolded in a beautiful orama of life in the tropics and among the botanical gar- dens beneath the southern waters. One of the big scenes in the play is & fight between the hero and a giant octupus who gets the man in its ten- acles. This scene grows in interest when tlie girl dives to the rescue of her swéetheart,’and helps him van- quish. the big fish, A capable cast _supports Miss Hil- ‘burn and the scenic inventure is said to be wonderful and entirely different f_rom’ anything of a similar nature. \ e REX TODAY AND TOMORROW . “Bride 13”7 is. so packed with thrills and actlon, with daring deeds, deep-dyed villainy and enduring love, that it is a question how to describe|. in.a few words the wonder and in- terest of the picture. First ot all, for the first time the United States Navy co-operated with @ Ifim corporation, an entire fleet of warships and other units having, taken part in the filming of the se- rial. Think of it—American dread- noughts, cruisers, submarines, sub- chasers, destroyers, seaplanes and “blimpt and other components of & modern fleet engaged exclusively for months in producing a great mo- tion picture. \ The navy, in thus assisting Fox Film Corporation, was prompted by a desire to bring home to the American people a complete picture of the great work done by the American .sailor. It is not a war picture, but ddiscloses the heroic qualities of the navy in time of peace. Besides this outstanding quality, *Bride 13" Is presented with a su- perfine all-star cast. The staging is - nothing short of gorgeousy ranging from the home of a millionaire in fashionable Newport to the Northern Coast of 'Africa, over sea and over land. If you are a lover of serials you must not miss this picture. If you mever have followed serials, take this advice from me: Keep one day open each week from now on to see ‘‘Bride 13.” ' I tell you this because I know you will thank me. Remember the name, ride 13 the opening date today: the theatre, Mex. Very truly yours, Fred Brink- man, Manager. “DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE” REX TODAY AND WEDNESDAY Of recent years Robert Louis Ste- Aenson’s uncanny morality romance ot Dr. Jakyll and Mr. Hyde has been enlisting an ever widening circle of interest among dramatic authorities. \ It is now looked upon as one of the three great outstanding charact- ers in the history of English drama; the other figiires being Shakespeare’s " ‘Macheth and Richard the Third, barked upon the perilous sea wrong for their own purpose. the 'throne oi England, whilg Mac- murder to gain tae frown of Scot- land. Dr. Jekyll prefaced his down- fall and death for a radically differ- ent reason. He was one of the most famous physicians of his time, and believed that man has two natures whichycan be developed of blotted out at' will thru the use of drugs, very much like a photographic plate ocan be acted upon by chemicals. In Stevenson’s fantastic tragedy, ‘Dr. Jekyll succeeds in proving his contention, and by the use of a com pound which resulted from long ex- periments he is able to transform himself into the odious Mr. Hyde. Finally he bycame so impregnated with the drug that his body and na- ture involuntarily change, and he is forced to take the drug in order to bring himself back to Dr. Jekyll. Dis- covering at last that the drugs which he has been using in his experiments were impure, and that he cannot se- cure a further supply, he changes forever into Hyde and ends his mis- ery by self murder. » This story will be presented in an elaborate screen version in which Sheldon Lewis, the distinguished ac- tor, will play the dual role of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, at the Rex the- atre today and.Wednesday. The presentation of this picture is looked upon as one of the movie events of the season. In New York, Chicago-apd other of the large cities it was received by critics with un- stinted praise, and record crowds are expected ‘to greet it here. CONTRASTING. ROLES “IN BARRISCALE FILM Tiist”, the Robertson- “Life’s pre attraction at the Elko theatre, Wednesday and Thursday, is an- nounced as the best picture in which the popular star, Bessie Barriscale, has uppeared in. Those who;have seen the film are enthusfastic in their praise. i on ’ Miss Barriscale,” whose followers run well into the hundreds’of thous- ands, is reputed to have achieved the finest work of her career as a dra- matic actress in this stirring and or- iginal photo-drama of life among thg rich and the poor of a-great city: The success of the star in “Life’s Twists” has been won thru her out- standing interpretation of a dual role. She is seen on the screen at one and’the same time as a haughty, tenements. Her performance is said to have established her reputation for_dramatic versality beyond question. ‘William rector.
