" “CAUGHT BLUFFING" AT THE ELKO THEATRE FRIDAY . The idol of the northland, the hero of :innumerable tales of Alaskan snows.and frigid places, Frank Mayo, js coming to the Elko theatre Friday and:Saturday in his latest Universal starring vehicle “Caught Bluffing,” directed by Lambert Hillyer. “The story is of a gambler in the North/ country who never played any way, but squarely in his life until an-occasion arose where he had to resort.to crookedness when the life ‘of the girl he loved was at stake. Mayo is_said to exceed anything he has donc yet in this latest vehicle, “Caught. Bluffing.” The popular ‘Universal star is commonly connected with ‘death defying stunts and haz- ardous risks, but in this story of the Kiondike, he eclipses them all by a breath-taking dive from a cliff top to.the icy waters of a tiny lake three hundred . feet below. The leading feminine role is played by Bdna Murphy, who is enjoying a rapid, rise to conspicuous standing “in ‘motion pictures. :Ruth Royce is cast in the role of 2.gémbling house follower and rou- “Jette :addict. - Others in the support- ‘ing cast are Wallace MacDonald, Jack Curtis, Andrew Arbuckle, “Bull” Duzham, Scott Turner, Martin Best and'Tote Ducrow. “THE TOP OF NEW YORK” ‘AT GRAND THEATRE TONIGHT There’s a bit of everything for everybody in “The Top of New Yorl 2 the May McAvoy Paramount feature whith is showing at the Grand theatre tonight and Friday- ~There is wonderful “kid” appeal in'the huge toy shop with its thous- ands of toys and the appearance of Mey McAvoy as an animated doll, to - "the delight of the Christmas shoppers. " Thérfe are thrills in the scenes wheré:the heroine is saved from com- mitting suicide—and a rousing fight between Edward Cecil “and Walter McGrail. There is comedy relief by the Irish chatacters impersonated by Carrie Clark Ward and Arthur Hoyt. ‘There’s real pathos and drama re- volving ‘about the Christmas rush in the toy department and the home ex- periences of the little sales girl who makes such a plucky fight for the Fappiiess of her crippled brother. . ““The Top of New York” is an en- tertaining story which splendidly fits the . winning human appeal of May McAvoy whom playgoers remember fof her gripping work as “Grizel” in “Sentimental Tommy.” The star does a convincing bit of work and she isiéupported by an excellent cast in- clading Walter McGrail, Madame Marstini, Charles Bennctt, Edward ‘Gekil, Pat Moore, Carrie Clark Ward, ‘Arthur Hoyt, Mary Jane Irving. “THE LONE STAR RANGER” AT .REX THEATRE FRIDAY ONLY * 'The’ noted William Fox star, Will- jam Farnum, will be seen at the Rex theatre for Friday only in “The Lone ‘Star Ranger,” a dramatization of the stirring novel of the Texzs border by Zane Grey. In this play, Mr. Farnum ‘Every cigarette full weight and full size fifteen (15) BETTER cigarettes " 10° ‘CoPYRIGHT 1922, LIGGETT & Myers Toracco Co. is said to give one of his finest por- trayals of western character- The story contains a love theme exquisitely developed. Admirers of Mr. Farnum in this ‘city already know his ability to throw his magnet- ic personality into an emotional role and there can be little doubt that a rare treat is in store for them. Director J. Gordon Edwards stag- ed this picture. “THE LONG CHANCE” AT ELKO THEATRE TONIGHT Gila had grown to city size, with plumbing, churches and alfalfa to hide its mining-center past. But Harley P. Hennage was still the “worst man in town” because he of necessity was: associated with the past. The-Mojave desert, , endless streaks and sweeps of sand, is the lo- | cale of the story and was used in the filming. And what happens in the story might happen elsewhere. So it isn't in any sense a “Western” picture, except that the Mojave des- ert is in the far western part of the domain that the geography says is the United States. No cowboys. No senseless fighting. A lot of good acting—couldn’t expect anything else from Walthall and the rest. And that’s “The Long Chance”, showing at the Elko theatre tonight last times. Its a good product made of the right elements, Pocket Sundial. An interesting invention Is the pock- et sun watch or sundinl. On the in- side cover of the watch various lati- tudes are given. The latiiude nearest your location i3 noted. The2 style, or swmall pointer which casts the shadow on the dial, is then lifted to the angle 35, 40 or 45 degrees, the one most near 1y corresponding. The variation of the compass Is then noted, and the sun watch held in an horizontal position, and the compass needle Lointing to that number of degrees east or ‘west. The sun watch will then be in correct position and the style or pointer point- ing to the true north. The shadow thrown by the style will be sun time. Meantime can be determined by add- ing to or subtracting from sun time the number of micutes shown on the equation table for the most nearly cor- responding day of the year. S R Y Famous Explorer. Louis Hennepin, a French Recollet frlar, missionary and traveler in North America, was born at Ath, in Flanders, about 1640. He embarked for Canada and arrived in Quebec In 1675. Be- tween that period and 1682 he ex- plored the regions afterwards called Louisiana, and, returning to Europe, published an account of his researches. The geographical portions of his works are feeble, but they present much in- terest as descriptions of the manners of the aboriginal races which the au- thor visited. He died in Utrecht about 1706, Not for Peepers. At one time Blackpool, famous Eng- lish watering place, was celebrated for the propriety of her bathing arrange- ments. When a bell rang at a fixed hour all ladies wishing to bathe came out clad in voluminous costumes, while every man had to remain in- doors. Any man discovered in the street or at the window was fined a bottle of wine. When a second bell rang after the ladies had finished, tha = VANGE DEAR, RECIYE = GUNGA OW® The Fond Parent who is nlwny-l Boosting 1i'l Evangeline and sickivg her onto the Company, may think her Kid is Cat’s Whiskers but Nobedy Else can see it.

PLACE OF SUPREME BLISS Seventh Heaven Believed to Be the Abode of the Almighty and the Chief Angels. The Seventh heaven is the highest of the seven heavens of the ancient Jewish Kabalists, or mystics, wherein dwelt the Almighty and the chief an- gels; hence a state of ecstatic or su- preme bliss. In the system of the old Jewlish mystics the seven heavens rose one above another, like the stages of a mwighty building. First came the space between the clonds and the earth; second, the region of the clouds; third, fourth, fitth and sixth, the abode of the.Lord God and the Seraphim. Heaven, according to Dante, in the “Paradiso,” begins from the top of Mount Purgatory and rises upward through the seven planetary spheres, the reglon of the fixed stars, and the “primum mobile,” ranged in gradually extending circles beneath the empyrean, the sphere of “unbodied light,” “the heaven of the heavens,” at the center of which Is the throne of God. Milton follows the same division in “Paradise Lost."—Chicago Journal. Intended Compliment. A clergyman was about to leave his church one evening when he en- countered an old lady examining the carving on the font. Finding her de- sirous of seeing the beauties of the church, he volunteered to show her over, and the flustered old lady, much gratified at this unexpected offer of a personally conducted tour, shyly ac- cepted it. By and by they came to a handsome tablet on the right of the pulpit. “That,” explained thé good man, “is a memorial tablet erected to the memory of the late vicar.” .“There, now! Ain't it beautiful?” ex- claimed the admiring old lady, *“And I'm sure, sir, I 'ope it won't be long afore we see one erected to you on t'other side.” —_———————— CIGARETT [ IES B Ao —better-Turkish —better Virginia —better Burley JOTeTaTeTeZe (©, 1932, Western, Newspaper Union.) - Boce was a dog, with a very high opinion of himself, but somehow he was nof much of a success in his world. and did not get along very well with the people who provided him a good Hame and plenty to eat. P In the- way" of chores about the place that usually fall to the lot of Lii} a good dof, he was a misfit. He did not like 2o drive the cows to and |'W from the pasture ; work that he thought should ‘bé ‘doné by a regular shépherd dog. As:for keeping awake at night to protect -the ‘place from all manner of marauders, that' was the work of .| a regular watch dog, and was a kind of wark that did not suit his tempera- mént. Nor did he feel thet he was born to chase the chickens out of the garden or catch mischie¢ous wood- chucks, That was hard work that did not yield sufficient for tae outlay of have energy. Besides, woodchucks sharp teeth and a mean ‘way of using them. No, woodchuck work was not for him Rather it was the proper labor of a dog not fitted. for some- thing bekter. Almost . all the.dogs Boce knew had some special work that they scemed ‘to enjoy. JHe noticed that the setters, pointers and hoands were ‘always special wozk, and -he concluded he _would be equally contented if he could only find ougt the ‘gpecial field that he was born te fill. 'There was nothing he had ever done in the way of spe- cial work that had given him pleasure or profit. He was certain, however, that he was a dog of uncommon ability, and it was ‘only a question of time when he would find the place for which he was eminently fitted. Meanwhile he would dream ‘on of the delayed opportunity that was cer- tain to come ulong some day and put him in the 'way of showing the world what lie'could do when he had the right kind of'a chance. While he was waiting for something favorable to turn up he thought it might be well to spend a little time with the dog doctor who was the friend of all dogs. “I seem to be in hard luck, doc- tor,” he said as he walked into the office. “Somehow, most all the dogs I know are having a good time, but I can’t find anything to do that is suit- able for a dog like me.” “You ain’t any worse off, Boce, than a lot of folks I know. They have lots of time on their hands but they use up very little of it hunting a job. Most of this class would take a Job as superintendent of a big railroad, but they wi turn down an offer of & job they uld -handle. I suspect you are willing to take a big job you know nothing about, but would. not work at anything you can really do. My advice s to go to work at the first job you can find. After you have learned how to do that well, you wiil be fit for sometlWing Detter. But don't waste your time looking ifor something easy. All work is hard. And the harder you work the better you will like your job.” “I'l think it over,” said Boce, “but I really feel that I could fill a swell place it I could find one.”™ Boce had a friend that uséd to sneak around back of the place for a visit. He was as unpopular as Boce the front way on his visits, and Boce returned his visits in the same manner. The good woman who saw Boce sneaking about the rear of her place knew very well that back-door com- pany, afrald to step boldly out in the open, was not the kind of a visitor for her dog. He was a good deal of a discontented loafer himself, and all he needed to become a full-fledged member of the alley dog class was the | companionship of another loafer like himself. She tried in varlous ways to break up the association, but these pals would not be separated. They continued their little visits and finally got the habit of wandering away to- gether. One day after Boce had been on one of his periodical trips with his pal he called at the doctor's office, SIS N SRR SN int R 1§\1h ) WL S with a frightened look in his_ coun- tenance, and a limp in one hind leg. “P've been expecting you, Boce,” the doctor satd. “Where did you get it?” Boce was explaining how he and his pal were having a good time when a mean man came along and shot his pal dead and then took a shot at him. Before he had finished a man walked into the office, stepped up to Boce, opened his mouth and pulled a' loug plece - of i sheeps’ wool out from 'be- tween hif teeth. Then he found' some more. Ao t I recognized ::mi," he you limped In here, as one 1 saw Kkilling sheep back makes it certain. Come along with me,” Re /Snid as he fastened a chain to his collar. “Ain’t you going to let the doctor fix me up before I go?” inquired Boce. “It isn't necessary, you only have a little way to go. Just a short ride out to the field where your pal lies. Youwll be with him in about ten minutes.” “Good-by, Boce,” said the doctor as they left. “It's the same with dogs as ‘it s with folks. “Loafers are certain to find one an other and make & sorry finish.” SUBSCRIBE FOR THE " b R AR PIONEER happy when they were busy at their- was and for that reason never came by | . 4 THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 5, 1922 : LAVINIA [ )1 % » sst So'ne and [ MissVivian Cross spent Saturday o N ' |and Sunday with her grandfather, ::4 some FOIkS »:: Mr. C.
