“THE RIGHT THAT FAILED” AT THE GRAND TONIGHT Preliminary because of its quality of he-Americanism, Metro’s new spe- cial “The Right That Failed,” which is shown for the last time tonight at the Grand theater shouls enjoy a popularity without class limi- tations. It radiates certain ideals of manliness through a love story of an accepted type, that will no doubt coincide with the cherish standards of every member of. the representative American family. At the same time the opportunity for humor has not been overlooke and in fact it is the predominating light- ‘mess of treatment attached to a theme #ull of possibilities for the comedy- jwriter that makes this feature the ‘best “in which Bert Lytell has starred for some time. o P The introduction of the prize ring and the corresponding characters into gi‘:tures is a modern tendency that s probably never proved a greater success than in this feature. = When a champion boxer finds that his great rowess which has won him unparal- eled recognition among men counts for worse than nothing with the one {air lady, the situation of his helpless- ness and miscalculations is_pictures- ue and amusing to say the least. For the first time his fists are of no use. But the usual takes place and the feminine admiration for physical fit- ness is once more the conclusive fac- tor in a three-angled love affair. Bert Lytell, as the squprej-wed, unpolished lover, gives an imperson- ation that will no doubt surprise many who have followed his work. He is g in registering a far n the bout than in the p . Virginia Valli, it might be said iz a personality and an actress who would inspire a vis-a vis. Good direction, attractive settings and the comic illustrations increase the sell- ing value. “The Strap Hanger,” a new two- part comedy completes the program. “THE CHILD THOU GAVEST ME” AT THE REX TONIGHT “The Child Thou Gavest Me,” which started a two-day engagement at the Rex theater yesterday, contains a story so human in quality and the situations are so natural and so smoothly developed that the entire production seems to be an interesting period lifted right out of life. It is a John M. Stahl production and re- leased by Associated First National Pictures, Inc. A The story is based on a highly dra- matic and very exciting, episode ‘which supposedly transpires in Belgium. Mr. Stahl apparently exgrclud painstaking care in his selection of the cast for this picture, which con- tains an assemblage of players who are suited perfectly to their roles and are of allstar calibre. Lewis Stone, Barbara Castleton, William Desmond and Richard (“Itc}ne’? Headrick head the list with such well- known figures_ag Adele Farrington, Winter Hall, Helen Howard, Mayre Hell and Ruby McCoy in their sup- ort. v “The Chiid Thou Gavest Me,” con- tains every element necessary to a perfect picture, in which category we are compelled to place ijt. The sus- pense holds the interest from the start to the climax, which is one of the most novel ever scen on the sil- ver sheet. “THE ROUGH DIAMOND” AT REX OPENING SUNDAY Tom Mix, the William Fox star, never believed he would ever have to break the record for cost of cloth- ing and outfit which he set in his western photoplays with his famous cowboy. costumes. It has hap- ened at last during the x'nakmg of Kis newest. Fox production, “The Rough Diamond,” which will be shown at the Rex, beginning Sunday. As a western star, Mix was reported to have ‘paid out sums for his famous Stetson hats, handmade decorated boots, pearl-handled revolvers, beaded vests, etc., that rivaled the cost of a prima_donna’s regalia. ) In his latest production, playing & new role in a story different from any he had ever been seen in, Mix, as a reckless adventurer, becomes a -gleneralissimo fin the army of a; southern republics It is the rich and gaudy costume he wears in this part with its yards of 1zold braid, exponsive cavalier boots, silken cords and sash- | es, gold-plated sword, rare feathers| and other accoutrement that equalled | and D d the cost of any outfit he' had ev tion pi ce becoming a mo- GAMBLER SAVES TRAIN IN “WHITE OAK” TOMORROW One of the most unusual, original and thrilling incidents in “White Oal” William S. Hart’s new Paramount photoplay, which will be shown at the Grand theater tomorrow and Sunday, is that in which Mr. Hart in the char- acter of Oak Miller, a gambler saves 2 wagon train from Indians single handed, by changing his base of oper- ations from point to point and shoot- ing first with a pistol and theén with a rifle. . Attacked from the rear, the savag- es suppose that this is the fire of a considerable body of attackers, and lso the deadly aim of the marksman disconcerts them and they draw off, thus giving the emigrants a chance to rally and turn defeat into victory. The date of the play is in the fight- ing fiftics. It is a graphic story of the hardships of the pioneers and the dastardly work of a smooth villain. 1t tells & charming love story as well, Vola Vale and Mr. principals. The sto by Wm. S. Hart and Bennet Musson did the continuity. 3 ‘All who have read the early history of the emigrant trains sehooners, or who have marveled at the bravery of the men and women of those days, will appreciate this screen romance, and the thrills with swhich it was possible to invest it. The miaterial was at hand and Mr. Hart| made excellent usc of it. {Mrs. L.

Miller, Jack O’Brien, Thea Talbot, Richard-Cummings, Ju- lia Hurley and Eleanor Middleton. “LADIES MUST LIVE” AT ELKO. THEATER SUNDAY Deelared to be a screen masterpiece equal if not superior to his enormous- acle Man,” George Loane ‘l'ucker's last picture production, “Ladies Must Live,” will be the feature at the Elko theater next .Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Betty Cempson, who made a great hit in “The Miracle Man,” in whieh she played opposite Thomas Meighan, is the featured player in “Ladies Must Live.” Although succumbing gradually to fatal illnese just as the final scenes of the picture were taken, Mr. Tuck er, lying on a stretcher, supervised the cutting of the 140,000 feet of fum that_had_been taken: This had to be reduced to the:limited number of reels, but when the work was com- pleted, experts asserted that the pic- ture from every standpoint, was ‘the best production Mr. ~Tucker ever made. The story deals with the 'troubles of certain women who, since ladies must live, plan. to 'make " that living 28 easily as possible. In the develop- ment of this theme, the genius of Mr. Tucker . found its finest expression, the result being a picture of supreme interest and appeal to every film fan. Robert .Ellis and ,Jack - Gilbert have the.two leading men’s’roles. The pic- ture ig'based on’a novel by Alice Duer Miller. 5 LAKE HATTIE Warren Stillwell assisted Harold Tiara hauling hay Monday.
