What with Tony, his wonderful horse, a gov- ernment airplane, and the Grand Can- von of Arizona as a background, Mix is said to out-Mix himself in stunts. There are a lot of reasons why miotion picture fans adore Tom Mix, and “Sky-High,” which comes to the Rex theater Sunday is declared to be the best reason his followers ever had for doing so. It is usually found that Tom doesn’t even bother about liv- ing up to his advance notices. He keceps far ahead of them. “iSky-High” shows Mix in the kind of role his devotees like best. He 1s seen &s a_ government immigration agent, down in Arizona, trying to squelch a band of smugglers who ure sneaking Chinamen through. And Tom musses up the landscape consid- crable before he’s through with them. The big outstanding stunt is his cdash through the Grand Canyon in an ming off the sides of the giant prec- ipices and dropping from a rope into the Colorado . river, Before that he rides Tony hell-for-leather right around the dizzy rim of the canyon. airplane—braving air pockets, 5kim-% “WOMAN’S PLACE” AT REX THURSDAY AND FRIDAY . Constance Talmadge, whimsical, ntalizing and captivating as ever, s the etn‘x{ of “Woman's Place,” the First National attraction which will cothmence an cngagemenl of two duys at the Rex theater Thursday. In this production Miss Talmadge goes in for polities. As a society girl just back from abroad, she becomes a candidate for mayor of the town, running in opposition to Freddy Rleecker, a “swell.” ; The produetion is brimming over with amusing situations, and has a deligltful romance, with a spicy dash of adventure, to add considerably to its entertainment value. “Woman's Place” is an original story written especially for Constance Talmadge by John FEmerson and Anita Lous, wha have prepared the scenarios for some of the star’s most successful screen vehicles. This would indicate that “Connie” will be right «t home in a picture of this type. Kenneth Harlan, who has been Con- stance’s leading man in some of her meeent First National releases, again i in “Woman's Otherq prominent in the cast are Hassard Short, Florence Short, Ina Rorke, Marguerite Linden and Jack Connolly.

BIG CAST IN “THE OTHER WOMAN” AT GRAND TONIGHT Five years had they searched for Langdon Kirven; five years, during which - his wife had never given up hope, Then they found him;.found, too, “The Other Woman.” 1Tt's a ctrange picture, the newest Hodkin- son release will hold you enthrali- ed. Jane Nov Helen Jerome Eddy, Joseph J.

AT ELKO THEATER TOMORROW The sue: seored by Wallace Reid in such pictures “The Roaring Road” and his “What's Your Hurry?” showing at the Elko theater tomor- row, in a relurn engagement, has demonstrated that automobile va ing stories are ideally adapted to the personality of this breezy star. Both of these stories were written by By- ron Morgan, a resident of Los A geles, and they appeared orviginally in a popular magazine. Pretty Lois Watson plays onpnsite the star as leading woman and Clar- ence Burton and Charles Ogle are also in the cast, |IIII;I|IIIIIifllIlI|lllllllllII."IIllli;illlllllllllllll' i NEWS OF THE THEATRES = ,'-Allllllllllllll"llIlllIIIIlIIIIlIlllll.llllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllll cture together | HIT “THE SWAMP” AT ELKO i THURSDAY AND FRIDAY While many stars and directors have been bewailing the lack of stor- ies smitable for the screen, Sessue| Hayakawa, noted Japanese-Amer- ican star, stepped right out and wrote | one for himself. Not only did he write'it, but he played the star part and made of “The Swamp” one of the brilliant productions of the sea- son. It is produced by R-C Pictures corporation and will be screened at thé Elko theater next Thursday and Though “The Swamp” marks his finit attempt at story writing for phiotoplays it is by no means his first litgrary effort. While he was a stu-| dent. at the University of Chicago sevierzl years ago, he wrote and pro- duded a number of one act plays, and thraugh these playlets secured his o" first professional engagement.
