Maxwell’s fascinating snovel, #The Devil’s Garden,” will be the:big attraction at the rex theater beginuing today.. This broduction is .credited with most powerful screen J=vehicle yet given to the famous actor, driving home:the moral that i unrestrained passion -.and temper reap their own punishments. .~ It is the second of a mew. series of . photoplays which Lionel Barfymore has contracted to make for Assoctat- ed First National Pictures, the first being : “The Master Mind.” “The Devil’s_ Garden” was producedy b ‘Whitman Bennett and directed by Kenneth -Webb, two of the foremost personalities in the motion™ picture world.

SCENES IN PICTURE, MADE IN ARMY CAMP . ‘Some notable scenes of army camp ilife have been accurately portrayed in “Twenty-three and a Half Hours’ Leave,” the motion picture adapted from Mary-Robérts Rinehart’s maga- zine story in which Doris May, and Douglas MeLiean appear, {u return en- gagement, al #he {Elko theater to- night only. To secure realism in the ‘episodes, Mr. Ince made arrangements with the commanding officer of Camp MacArthur at San Pedro, California, o make the scenes there. The C. O. even asisted in directing a large part of the action and had several com- panies of soldiers act as extras. The story s said to be packed wiih laughs and deals with the mis-adven- tures of a certain Sergeant Grey, who falls in love with the daughter of the Colonel of his regiment. It is in no sense of the word a ‘‘war picture” and not a single gun is exploded in its five reels. The fact that the fun is against a khaki background is 1erely incidental. Louise Fazenda and other Mack Sennett comedy stars also appear in “Let 'Er Go,” at the Elko tonight. THIS WEEK'S VAUDEVILLE PROGRAM AT GRAND FRIDAY, Thomas and Wileon, “The Ginger Snaps,” a lively pair of colored com- edians, open the regular Friday vaudevijlle show at the Grand theater this week, with rapid comedy talk, songs and some peppy step-dancing. Miss Wilson displays some beautiful gowns ‘and a fine ‘voice, while Mr. Thomas is a comic of rare abilities and makes a hit with his song “He’s in the Jail House Now.” Ruth Yage and Co., are billed as “The Novelly Girl” and wif assisfe f Ruben in a strumental - special scener Banjo numbers,’an troduced. r?

For one .of the features of the drama is a fracas which takes place at the mouth of a mine and in which Bosworth holds at bay @ number of enraged bullles. His chiet fistic opponent, however, js in private life Fred Kohler, - who plays the Fole of Donnelly in the pic- ture. Kohlér is a well-known wres- tler and fistic champion and: there is more of the real than the reel ele- ment in the tussle between the two square-shouldered battlers. “DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES” BEGINS AT ELKO SUNDAY Realism is the keynote of E. W. Hornung’s success as a writer of ox- traordinary and eensational stories. He possesses the faculty of making the unusual convincing: That qual- ity is the basis of the tremendous suc- cess of his novel, “Dead Men Tell No Tales,” which now has been put in motion pictures, us a Tom Ferris all- star special production, and will be shown at the Elko theater next Sun- day, Monday and Tuesday. Something more than imagination, style and ability was required to make a picture drama of “Dead Men Tell No Tales,” retaining the quality of realism which -made the book one of the most popular ever written. i /seen Dby local | , the effer | vescent little actress, 1 soon ‘b theater-goers in the| stellar role of “The Offshore Pirate,” | the.
