“BEAUTY'S WORTH” AT THE ‘What is it makes a man admire personality? How should a girl go about winning the man of her chonce’ These very . vital questions find an mumtmg and delightful ans- wer in “Beauty’s Worth” starring Marion Davies, ‘a. photoplay creat- b ed by Cosmopoliton = Productions, { which is showing at the Elko theater today last times. “Beauty’s Worth” is a story of how a girl unknowingly hid her striking beauty beneath a plain and unattractive garb; how.an = artist discovered her rare beauty where others saw only mediocrity and dull- ness; how this artists suggestion as to dress transformed her from a shrinking and scorned out- sider at a fashionable summer re- sort into the loveliest and most courted belle there. It is not only a charming study of a girl’s nature but it is also a searching analysis of the foibles of men. “Beauty’s Worth” was adapted by Luther Reed from Sophie Keérr’s story of the same name. It was di~ rected by Robert G. Vignola, who directed “Enchantment.” There are gorgeous settings by Joseph Urban Itisa Paragount. Picture. “SMILIN® THROUGH” AT REX SUNDAY AND MONDAY Norma Talmadge’s latest First National starring vehicle, “Smilin’ Through,” is coming to the Rex theater on Sunday for an engage- ment of two days. Advance reports state that this is the most ambitious production yet made by Norma Talmadge. It is an adaptation of Allen Langdon Martin’s stage hit of the same name, in which Jane Cowl appeavred on the speaking stage. Appearing opposite Miss Tel- madge are two leading men, Wynd- ham Standing and Harrison Ford, and a splendid supporting cast, in- cluding Alec B, Francis, Glenn Hunter, Grace Griswold, Miriam Battista and Eugene Lockhar:. The production deals with the ro- mance of beautiful young Kathlecn, who is left in the charge of John Carteret following the death of her Aunt Monyeen. Monyeen was fatally wounded by a jealous suitor on the day of her weddingz to Car- teret. When Carteret learns that Kathleen is in love with che son of the man who killed his bride he in- terrupts the romance of the young people and the absorbing plot gath- ers’ dramatic momentum, Norma, ever a great emotional actress, is said to have taken advan- tage of the great dramatic oppor- tumty presented her. "'I'HE HIDDEN WOMAN” AT REX AGAIN TONIGHT (g “An" Allan Dwan production! The yéry ‘riame ‘suggests action, virility romatce! ‘And these elements are indéed splendidly combined in “The Hidden Woman,” a story which tells of gay irresponsibility and frivolous pursuits, Freeing herself from the more or less contaminating atmo- sphere of New -York’s Bohemia, she flees to a small settlement where she discovers that in love and ser- vice for others lies the only real and lasting happiness. Splendidly portrayed by a cast of stars dbly directed by a notable director, this interesting story is further enchanced by a varying background that includes scenes on Broadway and in the Adirondacks. Russel Thaw, who appears with his mother Evelyn Nesbit, in “The Hidden Woman,” is quite an wrtist besides an actor. His work with jen and brush has attracted the atten- tion of several well-known artists, all of whom predict a bright fature for the boy. In the cast appear such noted art- ists of the screen as Evelyn Nesbit, Mary Alden, Ruth Darling, Crauford Kent, Murdock MacQuarrie and Al- bert Hart. “FIND THE WOMAN” AT GRAND THEATER TONIGHT A prominent concert smger learns flm. certain compromising letters ahe has written to a judge have fall- 'en ‘into’' the hands of a blackmailer and’ begs ‘him for the letters, He réfuses andia struggle ensues. He {alls, tearing off a piece of her gown. The next morning the man is found atabbed to death, In his hand ‘s the piece of ‘material ripped from the ‘woman’s dress. The woman is a lrl!fld of the prosecuting attorney #nicharge “of the mystery. Shall she tell him what happened? She may escape & /murder trial but she will suin her reputation and that of the judge. What shall she do? That.is the dilemma faced by Supie Carey in “Find the Woman” a - sensational mystery photoplay at the Grand theater tonight last showing., The part ‘of Sophie Carey js pluyed by Alma Rubens, who is . featured in this Cosmopolitan-Par- amount Production. The picture was adapted by Doty Hobart from Arthur Somers Roche’s popular story in Cosmopolitan Magazine. The photo- play, elaborately staged, was direct- ed by Tom Terriss. A brilliant cast was engaged to support Miss Rubens in this picture. Among them are: Eileen Huban, a stage notable who makes her de- but in pictures; George MacQuarrie Norman Kerry, Harrison Ford and “Henry.

Hodkinson release which comes to the Elko theater Slturd-y, n an un- usual picture. ‘With the unfailing Thomas touch a subtle thread of the occult, re- vealing the psychology of light and shade on human mentality and ac-| tion, is introduced in such a way as to convey a novel and fascinating at- mosphere. The filming of this par- ticular phase of the picture called for stage management of unusual merit, and the lighting technique is a startling feature of the production | y'. manifesting itself in striking photo- graphic effects. Despite the much discussed difficulty of getting across psychic ideas on the screen, proof of success is here found in the sim- plicity and easy comprehensibility of the story. - DOUBLE FEATURE PROGRAM ' /AT THE GRAND SATURDAY | 1.4} Tomorrow the Grand theater will show a double feature program. re will be a seven reel “West- etn,” which is' remarkable for the absence of “stock” situations that lead one to think all western pictures are alike. This one is different, yet thrilling enough. It is called ‘“‘Shad- ows of Consecience.” The comedy feature will be the return showing of Harold Lloyd’s four reel “mirthquake” in which the spectacled comedian makes even sober faced spectators laugh when viewing “A Sailor Made Man.” 2 More Days AND THEN— Norma Talmadge —IN— “SMILIN’ Through” Superb productum—-S:rm land’s artistry as no one has seen it before— COMING TO THE Rex Theatre IOHIHHIWHHNHHHHIHIHM\IH\IHH IR lome Smilin’ Through THE GATES OF GLADNESS For Love's Conflict . e * Way back when Moonyeen was a smilin’ colleen « ow .

There There are those who question the ability of a people long to maintain a democracy. The progress of the race does not lie merely in the-intelligence, philos- ophy, or the art of a few, but in their possession by the many, in their general acceptance. America lays no claim to the discovery 'of the theory of freedom of self-government. Its glory lies in the ability of its people to put those theories into practice, not merely the power to state them but the capacity to live up to them. . The inalienable right of man to life and liberty and to be protected in the enjoyment of the rewards of his own industry have their source in religion. The rights of man as man, the dignity of the-individual, find their justification in that source alone. . Whenever its teachings were fully admitied, the rest followed as a matter of course. It was religion that came first§ then the establishment of free government. With these there came the opportunity for a general education, for a broader service by the institutions of higher learning, which ushered in the age of science, resulting in the great material prosperity. These were the institutions which Americans' built up and supported out of then' faith in an eternal purpose and out of their faith in mankind: — — — ———*—~ —— —— — —— ——— ———— | OASIS IN ARIZONA DESERT What Has Been Done to Make Ajo, for Centuries an Arid Spot, “Blos- som Like the Rose.” West of the Santa Cruz and south of the Gila in Arizona the territory is gererally. an irreciaimable desert.
