ETHEL CLAYTON SHOWS IN STORY OF SOUTH AFRICA A south African story by Cynthia Stockley serves as Ethel Clayton's latest Paramount vehicle, “Sins of Rosanne.” The picture pleased the audience last evening at the Elko the- atre where it again appears tonight, last times. Miss Clayton plays the most unusual film heroine seep in many moons. Saved from death as an infant by un old Malay woman, the daughfer of a wealthy English widow living near the Kimberley diamond mines grows into womanhood imbued by the Malay with an insatiable craving for bright stones. This leads her into a diamond smuggling scheme, in which she is the accomplice of a sinister jeweler. But romance enters her life and, after exciting adventures, she is freed from the Malay’s influence and becomes her rinl self. ‘‘Sine of Rosanne” attracts by the unusual character of its story and by the sterling work of Miss Clavion in the heroine’s role.

The finished production, ac- cording to all reports and indications, is one of the best Ray films ever offer- ed to the public. HAROLD LLOYD AT GRAND ‘ LAST TIMES TONIGHT trenched in the hearts of the laught-, er-loving public that people in the udience are in « state of pleased ex- pectancy the moment oge of his farci- cal skits appears on the screen. They have come to know they are not go- ing to be disappointed. Added pleas- ure of anticipation is that what they are to see and enjoy is thoroughly clean and wholesome. Pet subject of Lloyd is human vanity. In “Get Out and Get Under,” his latest Pathe release, which is the feature-of. tle program tonight, last times, at the Grand, he plays upon this weakness Mary H. 0'Connor was the scenarist. “THE POOR SIMP” AT ELKO THEATRE TOMORROW The funniest thing that Owen Moore has ever done on the screen is his characterization of Melville Car- ruthers in the title role “The Poor Simp”, a Selznick p™mduction at the Elko Friday and Saturday. The picture is a true farce comedy with the humor derived from the unique and complicated situations, and the unavailing but well meaning efforts of his friends to extricate the léading character from his dilemma. A well-known cast of stage and screen favorites support the star, the direction of Victor Heerman shows great understanding of comedy values and the staging of the production is in the usually pretentious style. “THE BRANDED WOMAN" AT THE REX TODAY Scenes in Hades, said to rival even the most fanciful of Dore's famous drawings, have been reproduced’ on the screen in Norma Talmadge's lat- est First National starring vehicle, “The Branded Woman,” which wil be shown at the Rex theatre, com- mencing Thursday. Because of the elaborate nature of the sets called for in this motion pic- ture, which was adapted by Anita Loos and Albert Parker from Oliver D.

Producersi from a private house in Paris and the Ritz hotel, a fashionable boarding echool for girls up the Hudson, the library and other rooms of a wealthy New Yorker's home are some remark- able scenes in India. The scenes of the Far East reveal an open market place and a slave- block, where Norma, as the heroine, is sold at public auction, with don- keys, camels and natives in pictur- esque costume lending a ' touch of “‘atmosphere.” But most remarkable of add are the allegorical scenes in Hades. One of these sets, which represents a dream of Norma’s, wherein she imagines herself dragged down by society into a hideous whirlpool! of slime and filth, from ‘which she is rescued by the man she loves, was filmed in a huge pool diseolored and apparently filled with horrible creeping creatures like the “slimy things that crawl with wings" he Rime of the Ancient Mari- ner. 8o hideously realistic is this pool into which Norma plunges in a costly and beautiful costume that the other members of the cast and the “extrag” playing the roles of uufortunates caught in the river of lost souls, hes- itated to enter the water until Norma herseli plunged In. with rare skill, exposing the shal- lowness, vacancy and conceit of the new.owner of a motor car, then his struggles and mishaps, all with that|the benefits to be derived from the ' sobriety which causes us to laugh at pretty nearly all men who take them- selves geriously.
