THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER “THE KENTUCKIANS” AND GOOD | . MUSIC AT THE ELKO TONIGHT Charles Maigne's splendid Para-| mount picture production, ‘“The Ken- tuckians,” featuring Monte Blue, the talented creen player, appears at the Hlko tonight and Saturday. . The photoplay is a picturization of the famous novel by John Fox, Jr., and it | is filled with tense moments, big dra- matiic situations and climaxes which exert a powerful appeal. As Boone Stallard, a Kentucky mountaineer who goes to the Legis- lature with the ambition to uplift his feud-ridden mountain folk, Mr. Blue has perhaps the best role of his screen career. H! ‘xet!ng with the ‘beautiful Anne B “the governor’s daughter, and thd#f subsequent ad- ventures, vest the story with tremen- dous interest. Diana Allen as Anme, and Wilfred Lytell as Randolph Mar- shall, an.aristocratic assemblyman have roles next in importance to that of Mr. Blue's, and they acquitted themselves artistically. There will be music by Mesdames Sanborn and Riggs, also a comedy at the Elko tonight. “BLACK BEAUTY” AT ELKO THEATER BEGINNING SUNDAY Jean Paige, one of the most popu- lar of the younger stars,has the prin- aipal role in the big special produc- tion, “Black Beauty,” which will be shown at Elko theater next Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The film is unique in many respects and is filled with spectacular scenes. ‘the fox | hunt, the fire in the stables, the| storm that washed the bridge away, the grand ballroom scene and the race | between horse and locomotive are some of the big moments in the pic- ture. A ecore of horses used in the production necessitated the mainten- ance of blacksmith shop, harnessmak- ers, carriage makers and a large num- ber of grooms, stable boys and the like during the making of the film. “HALF A CHANCE” AT THE GRAND THEATER SATURDAY “‘Half a Chance” which begins its two-day engagement at the Grand theater tomorrow has all the virility, punch, drama and outdoor appeal of Jack London, Rex Beach aud Robert Service. It's a regular ‘he-man’’ story of the “under dog”—a man who, sunken to the depths, beats his way through almost imsurmountable ob- { ma which abound: in the latter part of the picture.. For when Ashe dis- covers that TLady Kitty has appar- ontly eni|‘ed dnto collusicn with Cliffe, a member of ‘the op party, the scenes between hu and wife are frought with coufl Leaving the convert in whic has been placed hy her parents, Kitty Bristol goes to London, where she meets and marries Willlam Ashe, sec- retary for ‘home affairs in the British cabinet. Cliffe, who is a clever un-| scrupulous man, influences Lady Kit- | ty to publish a book that will ex- pose certain .secrets of ithe British Ministry. The discovery of this by Ashe leads to his wife’s leaving him and their final reconoiliation. Supporting Miss Allison are Wynd- ham Standing, Zeffie Tillbury, Frank Elliott, Robert Boulder, Lydia Yea- mars Titus, Clarissa Selwynne. The picture was adapted by Ruth Ann Baldwin and directed by Edward Slo- man under ithe personal supervision of Bayard Veiller, director of pro- ductions. “THE HUMAN FLY” TO CLIMB GRAND THEATER TONIGHT At 7 o'clock tonight, Jack Williams | known .as “The Human Fly,” will climb the front of the Grand theater builcing, without the aid of ropz or ladder, and otherwise thrill the spec- taters by dd'ng daring stunts on the top ledge of the building. x 'The Six Melody Maids, artists all, appear at the Grand tonight, in con- pection with the lecture and motion pictures of Mr. W(lliam'y exploits throughout the country. With excep- ticnal ability the musical maids will present a song, dance and musical program of instrumental solos, duets and ensembles, on the saxaphone, vio- lin, banjos and piano. “Nabody’s Wife,” a Christy comedy in two parts will start the fun at both the first and '‘second shows, ‘which begin at 7:30 and 9, respective- 1y, for tonight only. “SEWING THE WIND” AT REX SATURDAY AND SUNDAY The next attraction at this theater will be Anita Stewart in “Sowing the Wind.” The ever-increasing popu- larity of Miss Stewart and tue assu- rance that this is one of the best starring vehicles provdied for her would indicate that our patrons are due for a full measure of diversified entertainment. In “Sowing the stacles with the sheer force of physi- |Wiind’”’ an unusual story is unfolded cal domfinance, determination and|—it concerns an innocent convent will power. Jesse D. Hampton produced “‘Half @ Chance” for Pathe and labeled it a Robert Thornby Production, which means that the director is the star. The idea of starring the director fs| getting to be qui'te the vogue, and a ‘wige one, we believe; as iy minimizes theé’danger of a good story being sac- rificed to @ star with a contract de- thanding that they occupy center po- sition i'n nine hundred and ninety feet out of every thousand. ‘‘Half a Chance’ s an adaptation of Frederic S. Isham's novel, Scenlic- willy, photographically, technically and artistically it is flawless. Mahlon Hamilton, playing the lead, is im- mense, and Lillian Rich hits the ball with her beauty, personality and tal- ent, “MARRIAGE OF WM, ASHE” AT REX THEATER TODAY May Allison scored another per- sonal triumph at the Rex theater when she appeared on the screen in the Metro plcturization of Mrs. Humphrey Ward's novel, “The Mar- niage of Wm. Ashe.” So well did: the audience like Miss Allison dn her lat- est vehicle that it signified its au- proval by frequent applause. “The Marriage of Wm. Ashe,” which will be the feature attraction at the Rex theater until tonight of this week was adapted from Mrs. Humphrey Ward's novel of the same name which Margaret Muyo drame- tilzed for the speaking stage. The picture portrays Miss Allison in the role of a high-strung young Engzlish 8irl who breaks the fetters of a con- vent and seeks adventure in the city of London. Miss Allison gave & spirited per- formance of the ingish mard who married a member of the Giritish par- liament. Her work throughout the picture was characterized by a rare charm that was never quile lost sighl. of even in the moments of teuse ara- CHEVROLET R girl who goes cut into the bleak world only to discover that her mother is the keeper of a notorious gambling house. Her struggles to get away from the poscibility of emulating her mother, her subsequent meeting with the man she loves and finally: the: loeating: af- her :father, combine to make a story of unusual thrills. The romance is of the most exalting variety. A cast of unusual importance supports = Miss Stewart. Ralph Lewt's, James Morrison, Myrtle | their Jives in battle and brought glory Stedman and William V. Mong are especially worthy of commenaation | tor thetr finished performaunce in this meritorious picture. The management does not hesitate to recommend *“Sow- ing the Wind"” as cne of the season’s best photoplays. MEADOW .VIEW SCHOOL HOLDS CLOSING PROGRAM Mrs. Chester S.
