Lo ¥ 4 v 2 “THROUGH THE BACK DOOR” REX OPENING SUNDAY _In “ 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 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”. Also Mack Sennett in his_ new comedy, “On Patrol”, Billy Bevan with Mildred June and Kalla Pasha. “SMILES ARE TRUMP” AT REX THEATER TODAY Maurice Flynn, the picture star, formerly one of the nation’s foot- iball heroes, will be; welcomed to our city next Saturday, when he will appear in, his latest Fox pho- toplay, “Smiles Are Trump,” at the Rex theater, This is a railroad tale and_has all the speed of a “light engine” going down a forty per cent grade, it is said. The picture was adapted from a Frank L. Pack- ard story called “Tempered Steel.” 1t begins when Flynn, as Jim Car- son, a young assistant paymaster, discovers that his superior officer 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 jncludes several rough-and-tumble fights, a giddy plunge from an open trestle, and a sensational race between two loco- motives on’ jparallel tracks during which Flynn makes:a blood curdling leap from one speeding engine to the other. The girl who figures in the love theme is portrayed by pretty Ora Carew. “THE SAPHEAD” AT GRAND SUNDAY AND MONDAY Buster Keaton, playing the Lamb as co-star with William H, Crane in “The Saphead” showing at the Grand theater Sunday and Monday made his first departure from slap- stick comedy to create the roll of the wastrel son on the. screen, Mr. Keaton had been _playing with Roscoe Arbuckle in his horse- play productions for three seasons, when he was seen by Winchell Smith who supervised the production of ““The Saphead”. Mr. Smith detected mnder the uproarious effects achiev- ed by Mr. Keaton a_quiet sublety of method that convinced him the slapstick actor would be a ‘find’ in the more human field of straight comedy. A i Buster” Keaton has been a mem- ber of the theatrical world since he was five years old, when he start- ed on the vaudeville stage with his parents, comprising the knockabout team of The Three Keatons. He was sixteen years in the vaudeville, playing all over the United States and Canada and most of the big cities of Europe. Metro advanced him to stardom in the belief that he is the coming comedian of the screen.. In “The Saphead,” he is co-star with William H. Cranc. Others in the cast include Irving Cummings, Edward Connelly, Odette Tyler and Beulah Booker. “HER HUSBAND’S TRADEMARK” AT ELKO THEATER SUNDAY Gorgeous gowns and Gloria, are always synonymous and never was this fact shown to greater advan- tage than l,\ Miss Swanson’s latest and most / memorable photoplay, “Her Husband’s Trademark” a Paramount picture, showing Sun- day, Monday and Tuesday at the Elko theater. The cternal, triangle with yet an- othe rtwist, one to stir up the greatest conflict of emotions in your mind, that you have experi- enced from screen play for many a long day. It is the drama of a man and his wife, and of a ric friend of both, whom the husband really encouraged to make love to his wife .It is a succession of thrills worked to a forceful climax and is depicted in an intensely life-like fashion in Gloria Swanson’s latest Paramount photoplay, “Her Hus- band’s Trademark.”” A member of the Elko theater management saw this picture in Minneapolis ~ and states it is a splendid production, highly entertaining, in short a “beaner’. “A CERTAIN RICH MAN” AT ELKO THEATER TONIGHT “Phfy should the cail me a char- ractor actor-r-r,” demands Walter Perry, “when iverry part oi do is a Mick, an’ o'im a Mick meself? Oi'm just loike (& star—always meself!” "~ Which is more truth than poetry il one stops to consider Walter Per- 1¢'s coinic roles. 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- tare drama is a tremendous docu- ment of human life, and of great jmportance in human life is humor. It is the duty of Perry to supply some of this humor. and those who sce “A Certain Rich Man” at the Elko theater tonight will agree that the fine wholesome fun of the story he brings his irvesistable comic Irish personality.
