Marshall and Paul Cazeneuve, deals with the adventures of two young husbands who slip away from their wives to a masquerade ball, for their first night out since marriage. * They are met at the ball by their wives in costume and mask—the wives having discov- ered the little game and the wild night that follows is replete ‘with comedy situatiops that are said to keep the audience in constant laugh- ter. “Poonerville Trolly,” a two part comedy completes the program. UNUSUALLY STRONG CAST IN «/SUNSET' JONES AT GRAND | Through five compelling acts the | optience breathes the suspenseful at- | mosphere of our vigorous West, while Charles Clary, in the -title role holds their sympathy in his big “clean-up” of the railroad wrecking gang. “-‘Sunset’ Jones” is a strong drama of high moral tone, brimfull of quick action and beautiful scenes. Trene Rich, as teh wife of the lead- er of the gang, is extremely convinc- ing, and brings into the rough west- ern element a touch of true woman- hood which is inseparable from her personality, and a refined ~beauty which never fails to raise any part she plays out of the common place. The vivacious Kathleen 0O'Connor makes a hit, as usual—and is most attractive in some of the scemes as the typical Western girl who knows as well how to ride a spirited horse as to wear her jaunty sport togs. Un- usually strong support is provided by James Gordon, Jack Brammall, Al- fred. Ferguson- and others. s George L. Cox, to whose -genius many American successes are credit- ed, directed this photonovel, which is considered an epic of the west. “His Fearful Finish” a two:part comedy, completes the program.” ’ “THE MIDLANDERS” AT THE GRAND THEATER WEDNESDAY | When Bessie Love comes to. the | Grand theater for two days begio- | ning Wednesday, next, she will bring } to the screen a portrayal of the'pic< jturesque life lived in the midlands of the Mississippi river.
