A few. of this kind appears from time to time which prove so delightfully en- tertaining-that one really appreciates a second view and wish others who have not seen them to have the op-|.. portunity. . “The Egg-Crate Wallop,” starring Charles Ray and “Reilly’s Wash Day,” two-part Mack Sennett com- edy, are in the above class, and be- cause of their exceptionally pleasing qualities, the management of the Elko theater will give these two photoplay features a repeat showing tonight only. | “THE PRICE OF POSSESSION” : AT THE ELKO TOMORROW Ethel Clayton, charming Para- mount star, lovely heroine’ of numer- ous film stories, never appeared to! better ‘advantage in any photoplay than in her latest vehicle, “The Price| of Possession” which appears at the Elko. theater tomorrow and Saturday.. This is-a picture of unusual merit and dts thrilling story, massive settings and flawless continuity, - make it .one' Rex theater Sunday and Monday. The | of the outstanding successes of the| Clayton screen repertoire. - : The scenes of the picture are laid in Australia and England. The.var- jety is refreshing and as the actiol of the story never lags, interest is! kept on the qui vive from start to, finish. The scene in which Miss Clay-| ton makes a daredevil dive from the window of a manor into the sea and; her rescue by the hero, is ‘highly effective form the standpoint of sereen drama. The support is excep-| tionally good, the word of Rockeliffe | Fellowes, the leading man, being quite adequate. The direction by} Hugh Ford and the continuity by Eve Unsell were ‘of ‘a high order and merit, “THE INSIDE OF THE CUP” AT THE ELKO SUNDAY Said to be one of the most remark- able picture productions of the cur-i: rent season, “The Inside of the Cup,” a_Paramount-Cosmopolitan -picturiza« . tion of Winston Churchill’s famous novel, will be shown at the Elko theater next Sunday and Monday. | ‘Wihen this book was published in 1913, . its exposure of hypocrisy among wealthy = churchgoers, pro- voked bitter criticism by the clergy of England and this country. The| hero of the story, as in the picture, is. the Rector of a fashionable church who becomes disbusted with certain elements of -his flock and severely| arraigns them for their shame and! hypocrisies. ' Director Albert Capellani, how- lever, has pald more atention to’the ! dramatic features of the story than to ‘the philosophy which makes the book ' almost unforgettable. The scenes are thrilling and the heart appeal culminating in ithe fruition of & love romance, -is -irresistible. The cast, headed by William P. Carle- fon and Edith Hallor, is unusually large and- artistie, ‘WALSH IN WHIRLWIND > IN “SINK OR SWIM” For real live action, for pep, for rollicking fun, for laughter, George Walsh's picture “Sink or Swim,” ‘which will be presented for the last time at the Grand theater tonight. George Walsh is known as Dick Mason. in the play. Dick, being the son' of a wealthy father, knows how *o' wear good clothes and sit in cab- arets, So his father, tired of his mode of lite, sends Dick to Europe to take oare of a cattle concession in an outlandish place. Dick finds that the princess rul- ing the principality is being bother- ‘ed by political plotters. ‘He gets into the row and the trouble is end- ed almost before the counts and bar- ‘ons get well started. When things are »settled so that the princess is ruling in comparative peace, Dick whisks her off her throng, :nlarrlm her and takes her away with ‘him. “THE COUNTY FAIR™ AT THE GRAND THEATER SATURDAY T the annals of rural and racing plays no equine star of the American stage was ever quite so well beloved ay Cild Molassses who carried Neil Burgess and his play “The County Fair” through years of recurring tri- umphs upon the state. Now Maurice Tourneur has transferred this fine story, to the screen and made it the _outstanding hit of the year upon the motion picture roster. .. This rare attraction is announced for two days at {he Grand theater starting Saturday. It comes here with the backing of great hits in New York, Cricago and elsewhere through- out the country where it has been given a word of special exploitation. The story is a familiar one of a typical New England farm commu- qity chock-full of plain people liv- ing their simple lives and pouring out for its big climax to the-county fair. This familiar American insti- tution is reproduced in interesting detail. The high spots are where ‘Wesley Barry the famous freckle-fac- ed kid of the screen chases a greased Pig, climbs the slippery pole and does other stunts dear to juvenile heart of America on any sunny day at the county fair. - The climax is the great Tace in which Cold Molasses struggles against crooks and schemers to win the’ big purse and save the farm for “ihonest Aunt Abigail and her worthy associates who have striven to bring about this deserved and happy term- ination. Tourneur has caught -the note of the familiar play and enlarg- - “ed ‘upon it in suck a way that his - production epreads charm and hap- piness throush an evening of mixed .| proteetory. | when Stoddard upbraids the hypo- emctions and delights. Little won-| try and ithe outstanding hit of the| {season in the big picture houses. ! ireturns all indicate that it fills.a| long felt want in the theaters. “THE INVISIBLE RAY” AT T00t - themselve will see "Jack' vividly the against ‘heavy odds, through the 1§ episoles of ‘‘THé Invisible- Ray,” a) serial that.comes to the Rex theatre: today and every Thursday.
