*into’ the cabin, . NEWS OF THE THEATRES ATTEN-SHUN! The little queen was reviewing her royal body guard. Little did she realize, as she stood there in her flashing hussar’s uniform that im just a few days she would be wander- ing, an exile, in America, compelled ito earn her bread in an American business office. It {s a wonderfully romantic story of crowns and hearts and dishpans and typewriters, called “Such a Little Queen,” which is showing Friday and Saturday at the Grand theater. And the “little queen” is Constance Bin- ney. You remember this charming fctress in 39 Bast.” *“April Fool” a Xwo-part comedy featuring Lioyd Hamilton will complete the program. ’ TREMENDOUS, APPEAL IN HOLMAN DAY FILM “The Rider of the King Log,” the Associated Exhibitors presentation of Holman Day's production of his own but is surrounded and captured after his pal has died fighting the forces of the law. Dan is sentenced to a long term in prison. It is within the grim gray walls that his heart changes and he begins the long, long struggle for regeneration. The manner of his ac- complishing this reform is told in the plot of “The Great Redeemer” with a new and startling touch. For a latter-day miracle is wrought that af- fects not only the life of Dan Mal- loy, but those of others in the prison and outside of it. It is this phase of the story that contains the biggest punch of all. H. H. Van Loan, who wrote “The Great Redeemer,” as well as a number of other big photodramatic successes in- cluding “The Virgin of Stamboul’ and “Vive la France,” got the idea for this situation from an incident that took place in a western jail. His original story was made into a scen- ario by Jules Furthman and Jack Gil- novel, coming Sunday and Monday at the Grand theater is & drama of adventure and romance so interwov- en with the matural beauties of Maine and the great_outdoors, that the very rivers seem to be playing the pary of great silent friends. ‘The story is woven about the pic- turesque figure of old Kavanagh, spider of the king log.” Next to his great love for his motherless daugh- ter is hié love for the timberlands. His river rights are usurped by a wood pulp corporation, and it is a fight, with victory for the best man. But death claims him in the midst of his courageous stand. However, the spirit of the Kavanagh lives on in his daughter, Clare, who is given considerable aid by Dan Cupid. \Many epectacular thrills are pro- vided by the blowing up of dams and the resultant mad rushing of the log jam down the river. Every season of ihe year in the North woods is shown and every phase of lumbering, yet ' never once does the pioture forget ft- self in the beauty of its surroundings or let up in the tensity of its drama. Splendid acting is done by Frank Sheridan, who, as Kavanagh, steps out of] the) pages of the book. Rich- ard Travers is @ manly hero and Irene Boyle sincere and charming as Clare. “The remainder of the cast is equally satisfactory. Holman Day is indeed to be con- gratulated on being able to give en- tertainment through the mediums of the printed/ page and the motion pleture. ‘“The Rider of the King Log,” is @ real picture for real people. KOHOANO'S HAWAIIANS APPEAR LAST TIME AT GRAND TONIGHT With a generous lot of selections, both of American and Hawailan mu- sic Kohaano's Native Hawallan dancers anfy players came up to every expectation and gave a most pleas- ing program of the weird sweet music that comes to us from the beautiful bulmy shores of Waikiki, last evening They will appear at the Grand the- | ater for the last time tonight as a| special attraction in connection with the showing of *“The Gamesters,” a six-part photoplay starring Marguer- ite Fisher. “THE BROADWAY BUCKER00” AT THE REX THEATER On of the most capable directors of Western pictures today Is Mr. W. Hughes Curran, director of ‘“The | Broadway Buckeroo.” He Is one of the youngest, if not the youngest, di- rector of motion pictures. He com- menced, his theatrical career at the age of 11, having appeared before the tootlights for a period of six years with various vaudeville circuits. Mr. Curran was assistant director with Charles Ray for three years and for the past past two years he was with Wm, S. Hart. He has also played roles in a number of Charles Ray pic- tures produced) by Thomas H. Ince. ‘M. Curran is a graduate of Fordham University of New York city, and is an expert player of baseball, football and most of the outdoor sports. Fred Burns, who portrays the role of “Smoke"” Stack, was formerly the world’s champion broncho buster and trick and fancy roper, having won | that distinction twice in succession | at Cheyenne, Wyo., a few years ago. | “THE GREAT REDEEMER” AT 1 THE REX THEATRE SUNDAY One of the biggest screen produc-| tions of the year will be seen at the Rex theater when Maurice Tour-| neur's super-special, “The Great Re- deemer,” will be the feature of the; bill for two days, beginning next Sun- | day. “The Great Redeemer,” it is| announced, is, a tremendous drama of absorbing human interest. Ac- cording to the expectations of.its‘ producers, it is destined to be hailed | as one of the really impressive photo- dramas of the year. ! Advance reports on “The Great Redeemer” dwell with especial force| upon the unusual beauty of the pro-| duction from a pictorial standpoint, as well as upon its intensely dramatic theme and the tremendous moral message it carries to all who view it. Dan Malloy, as the story goes, has eluded a posse that pursues him. after| he has held up a train, and takes/ refuge in the home of a girl of the| mountains. The girl, startled by his| sudden and unannounced entranc shoots the bandit, | wounding him slightly. Later, after hearing' his story and falling under| the spell of his dominating person- ality, she begins to love him. With Dan it has been a case of love at| first sight, and he is soon contemplat- ing the abandonment of his career as| a bandit for a fireside and respecta- bility. Temptation soon appears in the person of a former pal, who tips Dan off to the fact that the limited car be'held up with ease if Dan will essay one. more fling at his old game. Dan | tion Is a trip into a fairyland, where bert, and the production was directed by Clarence Brown under the per- sonal supervision of Maurice Tour- neur. . A notable cast appears in the pic- ture. It includes House Peters as Dan Malloy; Marjorie Daw as the girl; Joseph Singleton and Jack Mac- Donald. Charles J. Van Enger pho- tographed the production, which it distributed by Metro Pictures corpor- ation. The exterior scenes were “shot” in the most picturesque por- tions of California and Arizona and are said to show this land of moun- tains and gorgeous sunsets in all its vast and rugged beauty. WHAT REAL VACATION MEANS Play Is the Foundation, and That Con- of, Doing Anything That Is Not Work. A real vacation, if you can get one, consists of play, asserts Preston Slos son In the New York Independent. Pluy Is the opposite of work. Play is whatever is done for its own sweet sake. If you lulld a fire to warm yourself or to cook a dinner you are at work. If you build a bonfire because you like to see sparks redden agalnst the sable background of the night you are at 'play. It you dance to improve your walstline or to learn a new step you are working. If you dance because you “just can't make your feet behave” when the orchestra starts, you are playing. If you go fishing to cateh fish you are as much at work as If you were building bridges or writing editorials to make money. If you go fishing in the true fisherman's spirit you won't care much whether they bite or not. The vacation mind is a law unto itself. If it enjoys an occupation It | keeps on while the enjoyment lasts, thought every fiber of thyp tired body may be shouting “quit.” If it censes to enjoy an occupation it stops at once, though it create con- sternation all around. A real vaca- the natives never heard “6f duties or obligations andthe ouly law is “Do what you really 1 —_— Cherry and Plum Trees.
