The clothes in “The Scarecrow” are just about as bad while the handling .is a whole lot rougher. Also no authorities now ever bother about whether I am being ill-treated. It's a hard world.” “BRING HIM IN,” STORY OF { NORTHWEST MOUNTED POLICE A picture of the great outdoors, showing Earle Williams in.a_yole| somewhat different from anything:in which' he has previously sppeared, forms the attraction at the Grand theater tonight and Saturday on the double feature program. | The story is entitled “Bring Him In” and was written: by H. H. Van| Loan. It is a picture’of the Canadian | Northwest Mounted Police, from | whose. slogan the film gets its name. Earle Williamd is seen in the role of | a hunted man. He'is not-guilty of | any crime, but -circumstantial evi- | dence pointed 'so strongly at his door | that he felt called upon to flee from the counrty and lose himself some- where in the great Northwest. Most of the scenes are laid out of doors and great opportunity is afforded the director to use some of the most pic- turesque locations known to the cam- cra men. The Kern River Valley sec- tion of California was used for many of the scenes and in the long shots beautiful birches and snow covered mountains may be seen from the shores of the river. “THE PRIMAL LAW” AT REX THEATER SUNDAY | Dustin Farnum is commg to_the,| 2ex theater next Sunday n a Will- iam Fox production, “The Primal Law,” based on a surring western story by E.

The story of the play requires that “Red” must win the $1,000 prize offered at the Roundup to the man wyo throws a ferocious Texas steer with his bare hands in the shortest space of time. There was no “double” to do the steer- wrestling for “Red.” ITe did it him- self.
