Such is one of the big tarus in “Conflict.” The most gripping, soul: &.mng moment ever filmed., Terrific in its intensity, the mighty iog jam, the blowing up of the dam, and the swashing torrent of felled forest is the mightiest spectacie of the cam- era's art. In all its splenlcr, fr"all its ruth- less glory, “Conflict,” Priscilla Dean’s wonderful new Universal-Jewell, com- ing to the Grand theater next Sun- day, vividly records tne actuai dyna- ing loose of hundrads of thousands ! of the prisvned logs. “Conflict,” the _sensational Red| Book serial by Clarence Budington Kelland, is a, mysteryddrama, the rugged mountain country of the Can- nadian North Woods as its locale. “Conflict” is the story of a fight— | the battle of two indomitable wills— the struggle for the mastery of the logging industry. The beauty of the photography and the magnificent scenery of the Cana- passed. Thousands upon thousands.of huge logs whirling through the dynamited dam were caught by the six camera- men who risked their lives to attain this remarkable film, full blast with all its men, was requ- sitioned by Stuart Paton in the direc- tion of this ‘marvelous picture. “Conflict” surpasses eveh “Reputa- tion”—Priscilla Dean’s most recent Universal-Jewell success—in its in- \_tensity and dramatic force. - FOUR ACTS OF VAUDEVILLE AT GRAND TONIGHT ONLY “Little Miss Melody” is the titlé four-act vaudeville program showing una presented by Mabel Leslie and Bob Martin. Miss Leslie presents a series of songs ranging from high- ¢lass to jazz, together with some rare imitations while Mr. Martin at the piano joins his partner in pleasing harmony in a novel way. The laughing special of the eye- ning is presented by “The Belladays” in their act entitled “The Lady of the Falls.” Thesc people come her- alded as wholesale laughter dealers, and patrons may expect a lot of fun from one of the most novel acts in vaudeville. Henry Hartman, in Violin Versatil- ity, is considered one of the best singles now playing in vaudeville, and his comedy violin bits are said to be a riot. Machedow Brothers, Europe’s greatest gymnasts, close the program with e.remarkable athletic feats. is the picture program which pre- cedes all shows, tonight only at the Grand theater.
