W‘Eb_NESI‘)AY EVENING, MARCH 23, 1921 "Musicl Dancing, Impersonations, singing, dancing and comedy team; and three Irish girls in songs, make- up and attractive vaudeville program which wiil be offered at the Grand theater Friday of this week only, both in'the afternoon and evening. J. W. Zellner, character protrayal- ist, assisted by Elaine Halloway, preser,ts an artistic protean oddity, called “The Mystic Crystal”. Seeing this st is a rare treat not easily forgotten. Figures of famous men grow under the eyes of the audience as Zellner manipulates wige and make-up with a skill and deftness that seem almost magical. Smith and McGary have a big time act in. comedy, talking, singing and dancing, Girls are a trio of good looking young ladies, with fine vaices which they know how to use, and pretty cos- tumes that they know how to wear. “Beautifully Trimmed” with Car- mel Meyers will be the photoplay which will precede the vaudevilie at all shows Friday only. FORMER BEMIDJI WOMAKN TO BE SEEN HERE IN PICTURE Mrs. Luke Dempsey, for several years a well known resident of Be- mid will be sen in support of Earl Williams in the motion picture -en-|the mischievous boy, titled “Diamonds Adrift” - which comes to the Elko theater next Mon- day and Tuesday. It has been known for the past several months that Mrs. Dempsey has been making rapid progress in the Western studios, and hér many friends in this city will welcome the opportunity of seeing her appear on the silver sheet. “Diamonds Adrift” is a story of queer incidents, and exciting adven- ture in pursuit of a diamond neck- lace which has been clasped around a cat's neck, by a child at play. Stol- en by a sailor, the cat finally be- comes the property of a beautiful Mexican senorita, the heroine of the story. A romantic tale of adventure is unfolded before it is returned to its rightful owned. Mrs. Dempsey will be seen as the governess of the child. AT ELKO THEATER TONIGHT “The Whisper Market,” the Vita- graph production to be shown at the Elko jheater tonight and Thursday, has provided Corinne Griffith -with one of the finest acting opportunities of her screen career. As Erminie North, wife of the American vice- consul at Rio de Janeiro, she gives a vigorous, sympathetic portrayal of a real woman, moved by womanly.emo- tions, who fights bravely to help her husband, and, unwittingly, falls into the toils of a band of international blackmailers. It is a story of mystery and ad- venture, involving. the governments of two continents, and the woman is ! the center about which it revolves. [Her good intentions act"as boom- erangs. It is when she is thus at bay, torn by conflicting emotions, the prey of fear and anguish, with unquenchable’ devotion, that Miss Griffith gives of her very best— and there is no better. It is a grip- ping story, with a number of big scenes acted with a tenseness and honesty which bring the whole pro- duction to great heighths of realis- tic drama. “SOMETHING DIFFERENT” AT GRAND THEATER TONIGHT Just a year ago photoplay lovers saw Miss Constance Binney in her first Realart picture, “Erstwhile Su- san,” in the role of a weary little Pennsylvania Dutch Cinderella, and it was apparent that here was a new star with a personality and an ap- peling beauty which needed no fluffy | negligees and elaborate settings. Her ' latest Realart offering, ‘‘Something Difterent,” which opens tonight at the Grand theater shows the young star in the beautiful clothes and sumptuous settings which her earlier Dictures have withheld, but the same youthful simplicity and straightfor- wardness which made her so win- ning in ‘“Erstwhile Susan” and *'39 East,” are still the most notable ele- ments in her wholly delightful screen presence. As a “poor little rich girl,”" we first meet the heroine in New York, where she is more bored and restless than the average bird in a gilded cage. Beaux galore vie with each other for her favor, but all fail to| interest her. She longs for *‘some- thing different.” @ yawning herself to death, she de- parts abruptly to visit anold school friend who has married a South American planter. She reachies her destination just as a revofution, which has long been simmering, | reaches the boiling over stage, and | the ‘“‘Something Different” happens in her life. A two-part comedy com- pletes the program. FAMOUS “RED BOOK MAGAZINE” | STORY MAKES GREAT FILM | You may have read the powerful ! story, “Black Pawl” by Ben Ames ‘Williams which was published in the “Red Book" Magazine. If you did yon know what to expect of ‘‘Godless Men,”. which will soon be shown at this theater, because “Godless Men" is the film version of that story. If you didn't read it you'll have the pleasure of seeing a soul-stirring story, the plot of which will be new to you. A perilous sea voyage, a storm, a mutiny, a battle for supremacy be- tween father and son, men who live by the right of might, a girl who inspires nobility in rough hearts long dead to the finer emotions— these are some of the points that make ‘“Godless Men,” to be shown at the Grand next Saturday and Sun- .day, one of the most gripping photo- -plays ever shown. ‘On Week’s Vaudeville Program Osteco, the comic serenading viol- inist; a very clever impersonator; a and the Three Killarney| but | Finally, to escape!

CHARLES RAY IN “THE.QOLD SWIMMIN’ HOLE” REX TODAY *“How pleasant was the journey down the old dusty lane, where the tracks of our barefeet were all print- ed so plain. You can tell by the dent of the heel and the sole, there jwas lots of fun on hand at the old swimmin’ hole.” So sang James |'Whitcomb Riley and now Charles Ray has.caught the haunting lilt and transferred it to the screen. In ‘““The Old Swimmin’ Hole,” pre- sented by Arthur 8. Kane as a First Nationdi, Attraction, now on the screen’ at the Rex theater. Charles {Ray, that master of rustic roles, im- | parts a naturalness to that of Ezra, which makes you forget that you are a spectator. It lifts you out of yourself so com- pletely that once again you are re- enacting the scenes of your childrood and are wending your way through the meadows of memory. Seldom does a picture so delight one'as does this. There are laughs aplenty and an occasional tear and that choky feeling that only the art of the true artist can create. “COUNTRY THAT GOD FORGOT” REX THURSDAY AND FRIDAY “The Country That God Forgot’ is to be the feature attraction at the Rex theater on Thursday and Friday. This is a story of the Western wastes. and a man’s love for a wo- man, and was directed by Marshall Neilan, who is probably one of the greatest directors of today. *Mr. Neil- an has just scored two distinct tri- umphs in his latest productions, **The River’s End,” and “Don't Ever Mar- ry,” and in “The Country That God Forgot,” he brings forth-some of his best work. In this picture he has assembled a prominent cast which includes Tom Santchi, famous for his portrayal im “The Spoilers,” and now being star- red in Goldwyn productions. ~Mr. Santchl plays the leading role in this production .in- his usual virile man- ner. Mary Charlson, former leading lady | for MHenry B. Walthall and other prominent stars and George Fawcett, the former Griffith player and now | ldirecting Vitagraph productions are | other principals in the cast. The re-| maining 'supporting members . are; Charles Gerrard, Will Machin anmd Victoria Forde. “The Country That God Forgot,” is a drama of exceptional interest anmd {is a story which will appeal to all. Interpreted and directed by such well-known people it cannot fail to | arouse the most stolid person in its action and strong appealing force. Polk Inauguration Unique, The inauguration of James K, Polk a8 President was marked by two odd things. The first practical test of the telegraph at an inaugural ceremony was made, and there were two inau- gural balls held In the evening. Pro- fessor Morse, the inventor of the tele- | graph, brought out his instrument to! the portico platform, close to one side| of it, where he could hear all that was! said, and transmitted the results to! Baltimore as fast as they transpired. The telegraph had bad a previous test nt the convention which nominated Polk, the first really practical test since Its invention, Of the two balls, John Quincy Adams tells that one was held at Carusi’s Iall, at $10 a plate, of all partles; the other, at $5 a plate, of pure Democrats, at the National thea- ter.

In the days when the Roman empire was.at its height, if you went into the -culinary department of an elegant es- tablishiment you would find saucepans -Jined with sliver and pails of various descriptions - richly inlaid with ama- (besques ‘in_silver, and shovels very handsomely and . intricately carved. Egg frames, too, that would cook 20 eges at once, and pastry molds shaped | like shells, and an infinite assortment of gridirvo: frying pans, cheese grat- ers and tart dishes. The toilet tables of the Roman women were well sup- plied in the same lavish fashion. Ivery combs, perfumes, cosmetics, hairpins, even an elaborute hair net of gold, have been recently unearthed.

Tha bodice is cut from a bit of veivet risbon and the face and arms from pale pink satin. No detall is neg- lected—even a small bonnet frames the face, in which features and hair are outlined with silk floss.

The bureau’ of: markets, ULIled‘ States department of agriculture, has Just completed a survey of .the space’ avallable for the storage of butter in ‘the cold storages throughout the ' United States for the present season.: Reports have -been received from: approximately 160 warehouses. They show that during the month of June they had space available for the carry- ing of 141,700,000 pounds, and that during July they expected to have ad- ditional space sufficient to store 49 700,000 pounds. Of this amount, spac Butter in Cold Storage—There Is Evidently a Surplus Space in Ware- houses This Year. . | sufficlent for the storage of 15,500,000 | pounds‘had been contracted: for be- - fore June 15. . During the month of June, in 1919, ! these same warehouses increased their holdings by 45.500,000 pounds and during July by 27,000,000 pounds, and their total holdings on August 1 were 93,200,000 pounds. The total holdings rveported from all warehouses on September, 1, 1919, amounted to a little more than131,000.000 and the holdings of that.date were the largest on record. g As 160 warchouses ‘have sufficient | space. this”year for the storage of more than ' 190,000000 pounds, there Avill- evidently be quite a surplus of | space. b { SELECTION OF DAIRY BULLS Look for Heavy Production in Ances- tors—Conformation of Hind Quarters Good Index.
