UL L AU 4THE BROKEN SPUR” AT THE REX THEATER TODAY ONLY For real popularity among the ma- ority of people, a good Western pic- “ture ranks high. No matter how staid and high-brow a person may believe himself to be, there is always a thrill to be obtained when gallop- ing horses cross the screen or a red- blooded fight takes place between two real men. Jack Hoxie in “The Broken Spur,” at the Rex today, adds many thrills to the picture by his fighting and riding, as well as many other daring stunts. TOM MOORE AT GRAND LAST TIME FONIGHT Tom Moore is not only the Tom of the golden smiile in his new Goldwyn picture, “Beating the Game,” which is being shown at the Grand theater last time tonight, but he is also Tom of the strong arm and Tom of the fraternity of crooks. In this power- ful story by the famous American playwright, Charles Kenyon, the dra- matic theme is supplied by a ruse perpetrated on a clumsy crook by a United Staes -senator, whose hobby is criminology. Mistaken by the crook (Tom Moore) for a master thief, the former obeys the latter’s instructions to go it straight for a short time. Believing that this is part of a plan to make a great haul, the thief complies with the request, only to discover that honesty has won the heart of a wondreful girl and the r spect of the community. How the re generated crook fights to guntln.ue his life. even at the risk of discl sing hl'«} past, are but a few of the climactic episodes that make “Beating the Game” an interesting, logical and splendidly acted picture. CORINNE GRIFFITH FILMED AT ELKO THEATER TONIGHT { the persons who witness “V\?}?::Fs oYour Reputation y\nrth? which will be shown at the Elko the- ater tonight, Sunday matinee and evening, will rocoiv.e a shock when they see Corinne Griffith, the clever star, take up a paiy of scissors and cuts off her beautiful locks of hair. Before the eyes of the spectators, this favorite of the screen bobs her hair. ) The action takes place in a board- ing ‘house, where the star, in order to disguise herself and start ‘h'f«- anew, has decided to cut'her‘ hair in order to complete the disguise. The story is one of unusual merit and requires an exceptionally large cast and many spectacular sets. It furnishes Miss Griffith a vehicle in which she may wear evening gowns, sporting gowns and more moderate frocks fuch as are worn by the work- ing girl. The production also furnish- es the star with opportunities to d play her skill and gavce in athleti orts. l‘p(')(:her attractions at the Elko to- night and tomorrow are Larry Sen.wn in “The Bakery,”. and the musical program by well—knpwn players with | exeeptional capability. “TO A FINISH” AT THE PAGE TWO WTSIT {Trmeiram e TR T O LT LU TR BT T " NEWS OF THE YHEATRES. | ing the exhausted bird and several Yoo ey ot .. q THE BEMIDJi DAILY PIONEER '( Wants Her Sex To Take Vateon Disarmament UL D R NS ny lesson on how to catch lions, fox- es, rabbits, ducks and fish. “Among Those Present” is Harold Lloyd’s new est and second three-reel comedy for Associated Exhibitors.

The latter was incapable’ of expressing love, due to his innate modesty, with the result that the other won the girl whom, both de- sired. ¢ | Then into the lives of all three | came sorrow, disillusionment and de- spair, brought about through the| vicious machinations of the evil brother. This is a brief outline of “Women | Who Wait,” the rugged melodrama of | the sea which comes to the Grard theater Sunday and Monday with an all-star cast headed by Marguerite | Clayton, Creighton YHale and George MacQuarrie.

News of a remarkable case of bird intelligence comes from Manchester, London Tit-Bits states. Several people at the Assizes noticed the peculinr behavior of a sparrow which was leaping from one of the chimneys and then falling to the roof as though injured, but nobody ap- peared to suspect that the bird was a prisoner. Qu opening the court the next day the attention of the oflicials was at- tracted by the excited chirping of a crap oo number of other sparrows, and It was seen that the original sparrow was still fluttering feebly on the roof.

The title is particularly appropriate to the plot of the story visualized on the sereen. Mr. Williams as an author| whose stories are ridiculed as highly improbable, if not even impossible,| undertakes to live out one, He suc- ceeds and at the same time find that what actually did happen was, wilder and more improbable than; what he had written.
