For pep, and daring, and quick brain and hand-and-foot work, you'll have to go some to beat it. This photoplay was directed per- sonally by J. P. McGowan, and Helen Holmes is starring in it. Supporting her are L. D. Maloney, Thomas G. Lingham, William Brunton, Paul C. Hurst and W, A. Behrens. Tension, suspense, and breath-tak- dng incidents follow in quick succes- sion from one scene to another, and, underlying the stress of a railroad strike and a town afire is a whole- gome love affair which is the inspira- tion of the thrilling action. ‘The Man from Medicine Hat” is a photo- drama for the whole family. Every- one will enjoy it, and those who are weary of mushy and impossible affairs du coeur will welcome this healthy entertainment. “QUT OF THE DUST” COMING TO REX THEATER SUNDAY “Out of the Dust” is a story of the early '70’s. The early part of the picture is devoted to showing life in an army post, and it is admirably and interestingly portrayed. It is here that we meet all the principal char- acters. The young wife on whom the loneliness of the army post palls, the gallant young husband whose devo- tion to the Indians who infest the sec- tion, keep him away from his wife, ang the trapper who seeks to win the wife away from her husband. Anoth- er leading character in the story is the little son who sees, but under- stands nothing of what is going on, and who knows only that when the trapper persuades the mother to leave the post, that his mother has gone and left him, and that he is a very lonely little lad. But the mother never actually goes OF_THE THEATRES i wrong. She discovers the errors of her ways almost as soon as she has boarded the stage coach heading for the big city. The trapper has under- mined her powers of resistance tem- porarily only by appealing to her van- ity, for she is a beautiful woman, and has a very beautiful voice. So she ‘leaves the drunken trapper on his seat in the stage coach and plans to make her way home, when, like all well- brought up coloratura sopranos, she goes mad. She is cared for by a wan- dering band of gypsies, recovers her reason and ekes out her existence in the dance halls of the western coun- try. The villain still pursues her, and life is an awful one. Just how her little son discovers her, how the hus- band finally punishes the villain, which he does in one of the most pra- phic fights that it has been our for- tune to see on the screen, and how the little family is once more united, is told in the remainder of this human little story. That is the outstanding feature of “Out of the Dust,” its humanness. The characters are faithfully portrayed, there is an at- mosphere of sincerity and reality to the whole picture, and there are no incongruities to mar the effect. Dorcas Matthews plays the role of the erring wife with a distinct appeal. Russell Simpson does some excellent acting as the army captain. Little Pat Moore does some of the best work that has been done on the screen by a child. His childish wist- fulness, his suffering over the absence of his mother, and his pathetic efforts to explain it all in his own small fash- jon is one of the outstanding features of the picture. The role of the trapper is played by Robert McKim with conviction. “HE OLD WEST” COMING TO B « » REX ON SATURDAY “Nothing like the old days, Tom, and now that I'm getting near the end of my rope, I'd give anything| T'm worth to see them again,” said Judge Brand to his secretary, Tom | Robbins. “'Fraid there’s nothing like Nug-! get Notch in the west nowadays, Judge,” answered Tom. “No, I don’t suppose there is. But they say that money will buy any- thing, and heaven knows I've got enough of the stuff. Suppose I send you out there with a letter of credit to reconstruct Nugget Notch, gam-| bling, saloon, general store, and all| for me. Think you could manage | f | 1§ | to advance her $50,000. She says| Jim Rayner is threatening Pa Bob-| bett and that the latter was about to | kill himself when Ma Bobbett stop- ped him. The Judge promises to pay | the money to Jim if it is necessary.| On their way home Tom pushes Jim out of the way and continues on with Lady Ann. Later Tom is suddenly| grabbed and dragged away. In | morning he finds nimself in the bot- tom of a pocket in the hills. | The rest of the story is best told by the picture, which comes- to the Rex theater Saturday. FRANK MAYO AT GRAND IN “THE MAGNIFICENT BRUTE Frank Mayo, the vigorous star o “The Brute Breaker” and other bi Universal features, will be the prin- cipal attraction at the Grand theater on Friday and Saturday in his newest fast action picture drama, “The Mag-| nificent Brute.” ! Presented against an awe-inspir-| ing scenic background of the mighty| Yosemite, the story deals with Victor| Raoul, a fur trapper of the Canadian | North, who visits the haunts of civili-| zation byt once a year. He falls in! love wit hthe daughter of his part- ner, Yvonne, a Parisian bred gh'l“ who is strangely out of place in the| [§ wilderness and who toys with the big fellow for sheer amusement. How he is accused of murder and escapes in| the trackless forest, later to be saved by the girl, is just one of the inci- dents which leads to the whirlwind climax. “SNOWBLIND"” AT GRAND LAST TIMES TONIGHT A rare example of artistic motion[ picture photography coupled with an| ® unusually powerful and gripping| story may be seen at the Grand last| times tonight, where the Goldwyn picture, “Snowblind,” by Katherine Ncwlin Burt, is being shown. i This picture was directed by Regi- nald Barker, and contains one of the strangest love stories that have yet found their way to the screen. There is nothing of the frail maid- en or the lounge lizard in “Snow- blind.” With such a splendid out- door man as Russell Simpson in the leading role, supported by Cullen Landis and Mary Alden, one may be sure that the story revolves about ele- mental passions blown to their hot- test flame; the love, hate and fear of a group of four people who live to- gether in the heart of the Canadian Rockies. Pauline Starke was never more lovely than in her present role of a girl blinded by the snow who is taken to the home of a fugitive from the law and falls in love with him as he boasts to her of his great deeds. Grad- ually, as her sight returns, she real- izes his wickedness and seeks the pro- tection of the fugitive’s brother. It would be unfair to tell how this tri- angle works out, for part of its en- joyment lies in the surprise that na- ture herself has stored up for the three persons involved. “Snowblind” is an exceptional pic- ture of strong action, splendid acting and excellently produced. | “Dandy Lions,” the two-part com-| edy, also at the Grand theater to- night, is a real mirth-maker. “LOVES ‘'OUTCAST” REVEALS BEN TURPIN AT HIS BEST Ben Turpin comes naturally by his| extraordinary skill in the art of pan- tomime. The star of “Love’s Out-| cast” is French by birth though New | Orleans In his natal town. His par- entage on both the maternal and pa- ternal sides of the house of Turpin is and has been since migration in the| 18th century, French and Mr. Tur-| pin is as much at home in the lan-| guage of Paris as he is in the speech of Broadway. Turpin’s elevation to starship on the Sennett lot finds its first revealment in the forthcoming two-reel “Ben Turpin Special,” “Love’s Outcast,” booked for presen- tation at the Grand theater and re- leased by Associated Producers. It will be shown at the Grand theater for two days commencing tomorrow.
