B The new Percy picture is a wholesome comedy drama, packed to the brim with fun of a good clean sort. and plenty ‘of live action. It cupplies an ideal role for Miss Percy. As Enid North, a wealthy young flapper who is determined to go into business despite the: ‘protestations of her lover, Miss Percy success- fully enacts the part of a young woman who gets into all kinds of trouble, including a wholly inno- cent affair with a married man, in her efforts to prove herself right and her fiance wrong. She keeps her audience in an uproar of laugh- ter from the beginning until the end of the picture. “THROUGH THE BACK DOOR" REX OPENING SUNDAY Tn “ Though the Back Door” Mary Pickford’s forthcoming United Art- ist’s release, this clever little artist will be afforded an opportunity for the display of talent equalled only in such previous productions as “Pollyanna” and “Daddy Long Legs.” Arrangements were recently com- pletetd by Manager Brinkman of the Rex theater to show this pro- duction beginning Sunday. It is the first picture in which Little Mary ever worked under the guidance of two directors. Alfred E. Green and Mary’s brother, Jack, sponsored this production, and the |* result of their combined efforts is said to prove further the truth of the old adage, “Two heads are bet- ter than one”.

The picture was adapted from a Frank L. Pack- ard story called “Tempered Steel.” 1t begins when Flynn, as Jim Car- son, a young' assistart paymaster, has been padding the payroll of a section boss, The discovery incenses the paymaster and he sends his sub- ordinate to pay off the men himself, secretly instructing the section boss to be prepared to “get” the bumpt- jous young assistant. What happens from then on provides exciting ac- tion galore, which includes several rough-and-tumble fights, a giddy plunge from an open trestle, and a sensational race hetween two loco- motives on parallel tracks during which Flynn makes a blood uur‘llmg‘ leap from one speeding engine to the other. The girl who figures in the love | theme is portrayed by pretty Ora| Carew. WANDA HAWLEY SEEN IN DELIGHTFUL COMEDY TODAY Hero by name and heroire by nature.

My appetite was nearly gone and I could not digest the little I did manage to eat. It bloated me with gas, and cramping| spells almost laid me out. Then I had rheumatism in my arms .and| shoulders and it*looked like every- thing was bothering me. “I kept an eye on a friend who was taking Tanlac and he picked up so fast I tried it.

It is in the newest Hodkinson release, “A Certain Rich Man,” that Mr. Perry does some of his_very best work. Founded on William Allen White’s world-famous novel, this motion pic- ture drama is a_tremendous docu- ment of human life, and of great importance in human life is humor. It is the duty of Perry to supply some of this humor, and those, who see “A Certain Rich Man” at the Elko theater tonight will agree that the fine wholesome fun of the story he brings his irresistable comic Irish personality. 7 A REMARKABLE PHOTOPLAY AT ELKO THEATER SUNDAY Glorious Gloria Swanson’s new Paramount picture, “Her Husband’s Trademark” which will be the fea- ture.at the Elko theater next Sun- day, Monday and Tuesday, is report- ed to be a remarkable photoplay.

PIONEER | _—— e , FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 19, 1922 SCOUT USES HIS FIRST AID While engaged in playlng football on the common near the Homewood Presbyterlan church, Fitsburgh, a small boy named Joseph Dunlap, was thrown forcibly against a broken bot- tle, the contact severing an artery in his ankle. 7Twelve-year-old Randolph L. Martin, &, tenderfoot scout who as. pires soon to be in second-class ranks, was happily on the spot. It was only a few days béfore that he had quall- fled ih “his first aid test, but e knew his 30}, 'Rapidly he made o tourniquet out of his suspender and applied it ac- curately, closing the artery which had been bleeding so profusely. The M- Jured lad would soon have bled to death . without instant treatment. A stretcher was improvised from some of the other boys' coats, under young Martin's direction, and the victim car- ried to the office of the nearest phy- sieian, Dr. C. J. Yorty. On examining the treatment Doctor ' Yorty was amazed to learn that a twelve-year-old boy could perform so grave a task so perfectly.. He sat down at once and wrote a letter to scout headquarters detailing the incident and emphasizing his admiration for a movement which could give boys such training. The action of Scout Martin is said to have given scouting a’ tremendous hoost locally, particularly among the parents of boys. The hero of the in- cident is a member of Troop 63 of the Second Pittsburgh district in charge of Scoutmaster R. E. Baker, who takes special pride in his troop’s first-aid proficiency.

GOT TAPESTRIES AT BARGAIN. Vienna Fawrg‘hie’k-r Would Have Done Good Stroke of Business Had Not Police Interfered. A distractéd young widow, reports the Vienna cqrrespondent of the Lou- don Daily Magjl, took one of three tapestries found under her father’s bed to a pawnbroker and obtained a loan’ of about $15. She was amazed and scared when they told her the tapestry was a Gobelin worth millions of crowns, The Gobelins are the property of Prince Czartoryska, who had given them to the young woman's father to | guard. When the man discovered one was missing from the hiding place un- der his mattress he rushed to the po- lice, who tracked down and arrested his daughter. The weeping girl told the judge that she was married eighteen months ago and her husband died the day her baby was born. She became homeless and went to lodge with her father, in_the service of the who had U prince. _ She meant to~ redeem the Gobelin® with’ the first money she earned. The prince said he had suffered no injury, s the tapestries were undam- aged and the amount the girl had bor- rowed was no more than he had meant | to pay her father for taking «are of them. When the young mother was ac- quitted her father repeatedly kissed ler’ tear-stained fuce and led her from the court.
