This play is based on the tremendous stage success ‘‘The Mar- | Hliage of Mayfair” by Cecll Raleigh. Advance reports stress ithe en- tranping scenic effects and art in- teridrs, “shot” in old-fashioned Eng- Jand' and picturesque Switzerland, in addition to the thrilling theme. | * The spirited story opens With the| ‘boat races of the Henley Regatta on the Thames where a plot is hatched to rob Nigel fillers, the young heir to E3 ut\l’e' and estate, of his inheritance, becalipe. he snubbed a London bur- lesque queen.

How: the little girl presides over the | family of her orphaned brothers, how | 2 great tragedy comes into her life, | the final realization with its accom- panying sacrifice, make not only an unusuat story for the screen, but is a startling innovatiion for Mary Pick- ford) herself. i “THE KICK IN HIGH LIFE” AT HEX THEATER TODAY Henry Lehrman, the producer-di- rector, is ever on.the alert to utilize some novel situation which may come to his notice in every-day life. Some time ago he witnessed. the | spectacle that took place when. the false teeth of a would-be Beau Brum-| mel fell out on the dance floor at a $oclety affair, much to the chagrin’ of the 'dancer and his partner, and, because he considered this incident one of the funniest he had ever seen, Mr, Lehrman’ incorporated it in his| new First Natiomal comedy, *The; Kick in High Life,”. which will be| seen at the Rex theater, beginning| Saturday.

It is a combination of mystery, ad- venture and athletic prowess. The title is drawn from the convict serial number by which the chief character is- known prior to the piuncipal ac- tion oft the story. “The story is of spectacular melo- dramatic type, filled with action and thrills.

One f4 an’ easiern, society girl being very carefully steered by a mother who wants “her daughter to ‘‘marry mo-; ney.” The second is the daughter of / a hardy plainsman, on His first trip | East, and the third is an Indian prin- cess of the Pueblos, the daughter of Ohief Ténawanna. . | All three girls are very intimately | associated with the story’s central figure, Luke Halliday, the son of a man who went to Arizona and start- ed a fortune, and of the Indian girl he marnied there who died long be- fore he went ‘“back East.” The East- ern society girl wants to. marry young Hullday because she thinks' in her butterfly way, that she loves him. | Carlyle Blackwell has the role of Luke Halliday, and handles it with his usual skill. Gloria Hope is Mar- celle Riley, and a-very sweet heroine she makes, whether dressed in the| costume of ‘the ba 1 room, or in thel riding habit of a ®irl of the great outdoors, Myrtle Owen is the Indian princess; picturesque in her native appears in the greatest characteriza- tion of her career, and her first feat- are since ‘“The Virgin of Stamboul”, in Tod Browning's mtlodrama, !‘Out- side the Law,” which will be shown at the Grand theater tonight and Sunday. " As “Silky Moll” Madden, daughter and pal of a notorious but reformed San Francisco crook, she finds honesty 4irksome and seizes an opportunity to fevenge herself on society after her father has been railroaded to prison. Fven more of an enigma than most women, Silky Moll 1s wise with the wisdom of women, wWho live by wits, pweet with the heady sweetness of dry wine and with 2 heart as hard as it'1s pure. After her daring escapade, Sitky Moll and her male confederate “hide out” i a Knob Hill apartment. During the long months of their vol- untary imprisonment a great change comes to the soul of Silky Moll, thru the influence of a chubby little kid from the next door apartment. * Tod Browning wrote and produced “Outside the Law,” as a Universal- Jewell, at an expenditure of a quar- HOUSE C Rubber Matting, Rolls .......
