i “WAY DOWN EAST"” COMING 1 +TO REX FOR FIVE DAYS D. W. Griffith’s picturization of “Way Down East,” based on the | stage play by Lottie Blair Parker,| which for the past twenty-two years was one of the rural classics of the| Ameriean theater, will be. presented | at the Rex theater on Tuesday for| five days' with the following cast: ‘Lillian Gish, Richard Barthelmess, Mary Hay, Burr McIntosh, Lowell Shermad, Creghton Hale, Mrs. Mor- gan Belmont, Kate' Bruce, Fdgar Neolson, George Neville, Vivia Ogden, Porter Strong, orence Short, Emily Fitzroy and| Myrtle Sutch. Mr. Griffith’s production of “Way Down East” represents ten months’ work of the most exacting charac- ter, for in his screen version of the story he has endeavored to follow closely the narrative of the stage play, with here and there a digression for the purpose of dramatic value or elaboration. | “Way Down East” is the- biggest production Mr. Griffith has made. Several Griffith innovations are prom- ised, including a thrilling snowstorm and a genuine New England ice break on the river. Following the premiere perform ance, the production will be offered daily, matinee and evening. There will be a special music program. “THE HEART OF THE NORTH” AT REX THEATER SUNDAY In “The Heart of the North,” Roy Stewart’s first screen classic for Quality Film Productions his versatili- ty has been successfully démonstrat- ed. The tale is an original story writ- ten especially for Mr. Stewart by Edward Dowling, author_of several screen successes among them “The Greatest Love.” The management of the Rex thea- ter announces that Stewart’s ad- mirers will have opportunity to view the player’s endeavors from an en- tirely new angle when the picture opens for a run next Sunday for two days. Not only does he go smashing and crashing through six tense action but he portrays drama with a distinet human touch in it. Ably assisted by Louise Lovely and directed by Harry Revier, Stewart has given a performance that will further sndear him to the hearts of film fans. Preparations have already been launched at the Rex theater for spe- cial presentation of this film and several added attraciions and dis- tinctive numbers have also been ar- ranged. It is one of the biggest in- dependent productions of the year. “TEMPEST AND SUNSHINE” AT GRAND LAST TIME TONIGHT The countless millions_of readers of the novel of Mary J. fiolmes will soon have opportunity to witness a ecn dramatization of the most suc- sful tales of the famous writer. 'empest and Sunshine” of which more than 10,000,000 copies have been sold since it was first published and which holds the records of the twenty other novels produced by the facile romanticist for the special del- ectation of women readers is now a screen reality. The picture is from all reports, in keeping with the im- portance of the original imperishable tragedy. The story primarily of two sisters brought to high tension thru jealousy of a man, the screen play admirably reflects the story’s descrip- tion of the ever changing gallery of Southern types. The old plantation owner, Josh Williams, his two daugh- ters, nicknamed respectively “Tem- pest” and “‘Sunshine” because of their disposition, the school teacher from the north, Wilmot, and the young aris- tocrat from New Orleans, are all at- tractively depicted. The darkey seenes are typical of Kentucky and the old-time it of southern hosp-i tality and chivalry are reflected en- ticingly throughout the scenie effects produced by the directo; “Tempest and Sunshine” will be shown for the last time at the Grand theatre tonight. “THE PASSIONATE PILGRIM” AT THE ELKO TONIGHT Rubye de Remer, who has the lead- ing feminine role in “The Passionate I'}l;:rim," the superb Cosmopolitan picture released by Paramount, and which will be shown at /iae Elko the- ater tonight, also “Sunday matinee and evening, has been proélaimed the queen of American beauti by Paul Helleu, the celebrated French artist. Mr. Helleu states that Miss de Remer “is perfection in beauty of feature, coloring and grac The artist is an author in this regard .-pnl his judgment egarded as the final word so that when he asserts Miss de Remer to be the most per- fect typt of American femininity,, there is none to dispute the dictum. . Miss de Remer has the role of an ln'vulm heiress in “The Passionate Pilgrim” and "during most of. the' ac- tion of the story, she is seated in a ;whcv! chair. But love finally cures her and she finds happiness in the, love of a man she has befriended— the rote “portrayed by Matt Moore. ' The cast.is Jarge. and exceptionally brilliant. “WORLDS APART” AT ELKO ’ MONDAY AND TUESDA\’x “Worlds ‘Apart” is the - title < of Eugene O’Brien’s latest Selznick pic- ture which'the Elko theater will pre- sent as 'its principal photopluy at- traction for next Monday and Tues- day.
