The picturé will be shown there tonight, and it behooves those who like melodramas of the great west, filled with action as fast and as direct as the flight of bullet from a six-gun, to “catch” this splendid F. B. O. production The direction of Robert De Lacey froin the spectacular story by F A. E. Pine, is but another proof that this combination of star, di- rector and author is making his- tory in the western field. Inci- dentally, Tom and his Pals—the “Your Gang” which consists of Tyler, Little Frankie Darrow, the poor pup “Sitting Bull” and “Flash” Tom’s horse—is busy making records on its own ac? count. — 5 ;] “RANGER OF BIG PINES” | | 18 AT PALACE TONIGHT ‘The Ranger of the Big Pin the Vitagtaph picturization of Hamlin Garland’s novel, “Cava- nagh, Forest Ranger,” will be screened at the Palace tonigh: and agaip at the matinee Sunday.

She did that in the state of New York not so long ago, and mot a word appeared in the news- papers because—it was all in the filming of “Mismates,” her latest feature vehicle for First National, which Earl Hudson produced in New York, with Charles Brabin directing. This prison break of Miss Ken- yon, with a thrilling chase follow- ing, in which she dashes across a rotten bridge in her” car only to have the bridge start crumbling beneath her, is one of the high spots of this picture. And then as she reaches the very end the bridge falls and for a moment it looks as if she and her car will be plunged into the river below. But, s in all good movies, she ‘escapes and all epds. happily. Warner Baxter has the featured role in this picture, which is show- ing at the Palage Theatre Sunday '|and Monday nights only. NEW MANAGER AT COLISEUM THEATRE Charles M. Tuckett has .been u:u;u mganager of m theatre succeeding Max Pitschmann, resigned, a cording to announcement made ‘| today by W. D.

Listening for a reply we of- ten discover that not one in the group really understood what was intended except in an indefinite way. There are many foster parents/and relatives who are bringing up children making the mistake above mentioned. The adopted child, particularly, has often been accustomed to hearing a different type of vocabulary, and it is not to be wondered at that he often fails to interpret correctly what is said to him. Wendell, four years old, said that he and his aunt with whom he| Ilives get along nicely only he “don’t can always know what she wants” him to do. I wonder if parents, too, do not at times make the same mistake that of pu hing a child for do- ing a thing he thinks he hds been told to do. It is so easy for adults to misunderstand each other; how much more easy for children to fail to understand our wishes from our words. I saw a mother punish her son for closing a door when she had asked him fiot to do so, and T “sure the child honestly thought he ‘did ex- actly what he had been requested to do. The request, simple as it was, had been made in an ob- scure manner.
