And Wally is so proficient in the art he lies his way to success. _For in the beginning he is a poor Bank messenger, timid, grovelling and \despised, earning $60 a month. He is . ‘disgusted because bank officials en- "'deavor to make him a thief by placing money about where he can steal it. ‘Wally revolts.

He lies magnificently and impressively. For the first time in his life he finds that people are listening to him, Does he rob the bank? It would be unfair to tell you. But he. does steal a girl’s heart. Monte Blue is the hero of the story and Jacqueline Logan, a former Ziegfeld girl plays opposite him.

He continues to live there indefinitely There is an- other character, a. mysterious person known as the “White Rider,” who hovers on the outskirts of the camp, no one knows. There is a mining superintendent in collusion with a registrar of deeds, who -attempts to defraud Joel Brand of his claim, and by fastening a crime upon Joel Brand, forces him to give his daughter’s hand in marriage to Marsh. The conflict between the youth of the East and mysterious rider over Jewel’s hand, and the romantic and daring of “The White Rider” in frus- trating the plans o/ Marsh and Grade to defraud Jewel’s father of his claim, gives zest and human interest iginal and unique pic- ture production.

Mack Sennctt has given him his op- portunity to prove that he is a real comedian and could even be a laugh provoker if he did not cross his eyes. Ben's “big chance” came in ‘“Mar- ried Life,” the latest Sennett five- reel comedy released through the First National, showing at the Rex |theater today. In this tremendously funny picture, Ben is the b feature and his work is of the legitimate type that marks him as a comedian of the first water.

And now Ben is vindicated—he can make them laugi with eygs normal— so who kno ~perhaps ~ he will do this very same thing and give his poor, tortured optics a needed rest from their comedy contortions. “ZILLAH,” GIRL WITH X-RAY EYES—GRAND WEDNESDAY One of the features on the vaude- ville program coming or Thursday only at the Grand theater is ‘Zillah,” the girl with the X-ray eyes. Mental telepathy and thought ~transference comprise her offering which will be of decided interest to many. While blindfolded and alone on .the stage she answers questions, calis the names of those present. their ad- dresses and just what is uppermost in their minds. and witn unerring accur- acy describ her 'patrens, their friends and associates around them. _William Durant, jpresenting “Sing Hi” in oviental echoes, plays and sings nopular as well as’ Chinese music on 21l instruments of; the-Flowery King- dom.

The star appears as an author, who is accused of writ- ing wildly impossible stories thut his critics claim could never Lappen in real life. The anthor proves that such action can and does nappen, for he actually lives the story to the satis- faction of his readers. There are many melodramatic scenes and startling pieces of action. Elinor Field shares honors with the star and while her part is not ex- ceptionally big, she makes the most of every e and the rolo stancs out in bold rclief. f { This photoplay does nut denend upon spectacular sc s or thrills for its success; but holdz th: attention through a series of surprises and al- most hopeless tangles into which the hero is plunged in his effort to live a story he has written. There is a clean, wholesome love story inter- woven in the plot which at times as- sumes the proportions of a detective story and then branches off into a sort of super-Raffles affair with a happy ending. “IN FOR LIFE” COMEDY AT ELKO THEATER TONIGHT { Beauty and fun are combined in an alluring way in the latest of the | Educational-Christie comedies, “In Life” which will be shown at the | Etko theater tonight, last times. Weddings have been shown before in comedies but in this play Christie has produced one of the most elabor- |ate and prettiest ever seen. An en- tire church is said to have been erect- ed in the studio to make these scenes. The play gety the keenest of.its humor across when the bridegroom’s pet dog, which he had tied to a dog house when the bride objected to hav- ing any animals at her wedding comes trotting down the church aisle, drag- ging hs house behind him, just at the point when the minister was about to say the magic words, “MOONLIGHT FOLLIES” AT THE ELKO THEATER WEDNESDAY King Baggot’s name stood for the sincerest in screen acting. He has now transferred his talents from the grease paint to the megaphone, and 1s considered one of the best direct- ors. In “Moonlight Follies,” which jcomes to the Elko theater Wednes- day only, starring for the first time in her own right, the former bathing beauty, Marie Prevost, Baggot has produced one of the best light com- edy dramas of the year. “Moonlight Follies” is a Universal production of ]Percival Wilde’s story, “The Butter- {fly.’ ‘ SEA SCOUTING | “Pine 'rree” Jim, as most of us | know him, otherwise known as James A. Wilder, chief sea scout, is very bappy over his experience in conduct- ing the two sessions of training schools for sea scouts at Marion, Mass.© Both periods were well attend- ! ed by boys from different sections of the country. Seven hoys and the scoutmaster made a trip all the way from Port Arthur, Tex., and, inciden- tally, they worked their passage on an oil boat back and forth. The training school was ideally lo- | cated at the Tabor academy, the ofii- cers of which co-operated splendidly with Mr. Wilder in the conduct of the two camping periods and made avall- able their facilities without reserve. | he first group were not only hap- | py but very eflicient, Their maneu- vers and general operations made & profound impression upon Gen. Clar- | ence H. Edwards, commander in chief of the department of New England, who took dinner with the sea-scout camp one evening. b The enroilment for the second group | was even larger than the first and | passed all expectation It was not all play, by any means, | for each of the groups had the experi- | ence of cruising around Buzzard’s bay, under conditions which tested their scout training and their endur- | ance. The members of the second co-operate with the committee in charge of the cercmonies incident to the celebration of the 300th aunniver- sary of the landing of the Pligrims at | Plymouth. . The membership of the sea-scouting division has increased ovi 50 per cent in the last yenr. ‘Their experi- mental stage seems to have passed, and the program has proven itself to be not only useful but attractive to ! hoys, especially of fifteen years of age | and over.
