THE B \ R EMITT DAILY r;owé\:n LAST TIMES TONIGHT The question of whether when a woman has once overstepped the bonds of conventionality, and has strayed from the straight and nar- row path she can win her way back to respectability has been the topic selected by ministers, novelists and playwrights for years. That a woman can -do it but that man must kelp < her is shown in “The Flame of the Yukon,” which will ve seen at the Grand theatre for the last time to- night. Dorothy Dalton, “The Flame” of the dance halls of the Frozen North in the height of the gold rush when man’s lawless passions were the only law, shows that such a “come back” is possible. For love of a ptranger, who attracted her because ‘he was different from the men she knew; she forsook the dance halls. “‘Black Jack.” the king of the gamblers, said that she could mot win in her fight for respectability and that she would return to his dance hall. “The Flame” did return but it was to exact her price from “Black Jack" for what he did to the man she loved. ‘A thrilling, dramatic story with all the intensity of tropic love in the midst of the snows is ““1ne Flame of the Yukon.” It was written by Monte M. Katterjohn, directed by Charles Miller, and supervised by Thomas H. Ince. Chester Couklin, the famous Sen- pett comedian, will also be shown as an added attraction in the two-part comedy, “The Soft Boiled Yegg." «SKYFIRE” SHOWING AT THE REX THEATRE FRIDAY The aurora borealis, which has hitherto defied successful protog- raphy, has been woven into the plot of a photoplay which will be seen at the Rex theatre on Friday. The picture is called “Skyfire,” with Neal Hart, known as ‘‘Amer- jca’s Pal,” for its star., The scene is laid in the Canadian Northwest and the action is said to be rapid and thbrilling. Neal Hart as Barr Conroy, a Northwest Mount- ed Police officer. The picture is. a very recent re- lease, and the camera work by which the shimmering glow of the No-th- ern Lights is shown in the screen is said to mark an important step forward in motion picture photog- raphy. The legends and traditions of the Chippewa tribe of Indians, based on the occasional appearance of the aurora in the northern skles, have REX THEATRE SUNDAY | Manager Brinkman of the Rexj theatre announced that he would pre-i sent today the big special feature; picture “Crimson Shoals.” This is| one of the most talked of pictures of the present year, due to the mar-; velous camera effects which have been achieved by the producers and also becruse of the fact that it pre- sents the well-known Francis Ford in the most extraordinary character ever shown on the schreen. Thanks to the remarkable photographic ef- fects in this production, Ford has been enabled to play three distinct roles. Thruout tie film he apvears at all times in the characters of Jack Quinn, Thomas Fielding and Harry Fielding. Added to these unusual teatures, “Crimson Shoals” tells a melodramatic story thruout which ruis an element of mystery yrarely seen outside of serial photoplays. The production has been lavishly mount- ed and contains besides many ex- terior sets of magnificence, wonder- ful scenic views. These latter were | obtained by Ford. who is also re- <ponsible for the direction of the pic- ture, after spending many weeks on a lonely island lying in the Pacific Ocean. “Crimson Shoals” was personally directed by Mr. Ford, and contains in addition to the star, a cast of well Known sareen performers, whom may be mentioned Pete Ger- rald, Edna_ Emerson, Martha Dean, fdward Woren and James Fitzer. The remarkable photographic effects achieved in this production are the work of three cameramen. t FOUR ACTS VAUDEVILLE This regular town hall, designed opened In New York city League for Political Education.

The famous stoue cow of Alan, a lttle fown In the Haute Garonne, France, is again the center of a fight between the peasants of the village and the Ministry des Beaux Arts in Parls. Twice the ministry hLas sold the cow, which dates b: {o the fif-, teenth century, and each time the villagers have fought with pitchforks and clubs all attempts (o remove it from the front of the Lipiscopal pal- ace.

Once be- fore they sold the cow, but all the gendarmes that they could cehter on Alan failed to get the monument. The purchaser asserts that he will remove it and place 1t in front of a Parisian mansion. The peasants of Alan have again armed, and this time with mod- ern weapous, for little of the old vil- 1age is left from the shells of the Ger- mans, and they intend to protect their relic.

The Modern Viewpoint i the Petroleum Industry AWENTY years ago, when the famous Spindle Top gusher was brought in, a great volume of petroleum was permitted to spout from the discovery well and tlow to waste in the Gulf of Mexico, only the feeblest effort being made to conserve it. Today, such a practice would be considered 80 wasteful as to be criminal. The modern view- point does not tolerate waste in any phase of the oil industry. For many years the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has been in the lead of those forces which sought conservation, economy and maxi- mum efficiency in the refining of petroleum. ‘This Company was convinced that refining meth- ods were susceptible of continuous improvement; it believed that with cvery year of experience, more gasoline might be produced from the crude oil. In furtherance of this idea of continually increasing efficiency, the Company installed the best laboratory equipment obtainable, and em- ployed the most expert petroleum chemists. From these laboratories, has come along other notable improvements, the famous Burton pro- cess, to increase the yield of gasoline from the the Rex theater. The picture is! based on a story by Rita Weiman.

You've seen Tom Moore in a num- ber of widely contrasting parts. He's been a policeman, a tramp, a chauf- feur, a burglar, a detective, a soci- | ety hero, a British peer. In ‘‘Hold) Your Horses,” shown at the Grand| gaturflay and Sunday he starts out ! as a street-cleaner, and ends by mar- rying haughty Miss Newnes, a prom-. inent member of society. { 1t sounds rather good, doesn’'t it? But nothing we could write would do justice to the delicious humor,! the remarkable depth of the finest) characterization Tom Moore or any other star has ever done in a motion | picture. “*Hold Your Horses” is one grand. and glorious shout of laught- | er, You must not miss it. | “Movie Fans” a brund new Scn- nett comedy will also be shown. ~SILK HOSIERY” IS ! DELIGHTFULLY ROMANTIC | Enid Bennett achieved a person-; al triumph in her latest Paramouat| picture, “Silk Hosiery,” on its pre-, sentation before an enthusiastic uu-| dience at the Elko theatre yesterday.| This dainty star never has been seen | to finer advantage than in this de-| lightful romantic photoplay. | Miss Bennett is seen as a model in | a fashionable modiste’s shop, and because of this, the women sneclntors\ were treated to a veritable fashion| show. The heroine is of a romantic, turn of mind and when she arrays| herself in a customer’s gown and be- gins to dream of love and wealth, some startling things happen. There| is plenty of romance and thrills In! the action, but the nature of the finale must not be disclosed as it is in ¥ the nature of a surprise. The picture is one of the best in which Miss Bennett has appeared in many months. Several talented pluy-‘ lers are in tine supporting cast, not- crude, without sacrifice of quality. “The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is so organ- ized that it 1s responsive to new ideas, both social and industrial. Its policy is flexible. It does not operate by rule of thumb. The very foundation of its ability to be of such funda. mental service to society, lies in its recognition of the value of a close alliance between industry and science. It has developed an organization which fits smoothly into the machinery of social progress. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is guided by men who represent in their points of view the aspirations and determinations of the new world in which we live. These men, Directors of the Company, conceive their task to be that of guiding the industry in accordance with modern ideas of fairness and justice. These men possess both the experien®® derived from long intimacy with petroleum problems, and the foresight to anticipate the future with its constantly chang- ing industrial values and economic needs.
