'BILL HART AND FOUR ACTS ' VAUDEVILLE AT GRAND FRIDAY With Wm. S. Hart in “John Petti- coats,” and an unusually strong vau- deville bill, the program for Friday at the Grand theatre, is more than enticing this week. Mahoney and Cecilia present a com- edy skit cplled " Seashore Flirtation” ‘which only sounds good, but from /! advance reports is better than the title would indicate. , Pearl and White, present ancther of those popular blackface singing, talking and daneing acts, only in this act both are men; Paula Armstrong and Co. in a “Herculean Surprise’ different. Particularly so, as Miss Armstrong is of small statue, yet astounds her audience by her feats of strength. One act, as yet unannounced, will complete the regular four act pro- gram both afternoon and evening. NOVEL LOCATION FOUND FOR “HIS OWN LAW” Most of the' exterior scenes of J. Parker Read's productjon of “His Own Law”, starring Hobart Bosworth reléased by Goldwyn, which comes to the Grand theatre tonight and Thurs- day. for two' days, was taken in Big Bear Valley, California, one of the most beautiful mountain “locations’” in the entire state. The camera suc- “ceeded in capturing much of this scenic beauty and it adds materially to the effectiveness of the love scenes and the engineering struggle with na- ture. As the scenario called for a great engineering job, of which Mr. Mac- Neir, the character portrayed by Mr. Bosworth, was superintendent, a plant was erected in Big Bear Valley. Some of the most important scenes in the development of the drama’take place around the engineering pro- ject and the mountain scenery here lends color, dignity and reality to the film. 1t 15 the iuman element, the senti- ments of love, friendship and busi- ness rivalry, however, which forms the backbone of the virile drama. ‘A picture with a powerful sweep and a tremendous punch. It deals with the primitive emotions of men whose constant battling with the forces of nature has taught them the scorn quibbling and compromising. Wihen they fight, it's a fight to the finish.

Firm, however, against the ma- chinations of Mellaire and his rascal- ly henchmen stands John Pike, the Elsinore’s” first mate. Pike has long loved Margaret, too, but the realiza- tion of his age makes him certain that she belongs to a man younger than himself. And so, when the mutiny starts, the iron hand of John Pike raises to quell it.
