The film is in natural color, and a vast improvement, we are told, over past efforts at' pre: senting color. “Doug” has picked out tones which are calculated tol rest the eye—principally browns and greens and their complements. And all the color is selected in ac- cordance with its dramatic value.} Four months of experimental work was-done along this line before a| crank was turned on production. The story is an original from the facile pen of Mr. Elton Thomas All the “yo-hoes” and “avasts” of 17th century piracy are in “The Black Pirate,” along with every thing. that any pirate ever did, from /burying treasure to walking the . plank. Without being spe- cific, Fairbanks chosé the Southern Seas as his locale, thus giving his adventure plenty of sea room. Al- bert Parker was custodian of the megaphone on “The Black Pirate.” Billle Dove, that lovely young leading lady who ip rapidly heading for stardom, furnishes the pulchri- tude in this picture and also Doug’s motive for cleaning up a couple of shiploads of pirates. Mr. Fairbanks opens this piclure,: we_are told, where most of them end,—with the freewooters blowing up a galleon alopg with ‘the, passen- gers, cargo and crew. After this plagid incident things get exciting and the first thing we know the star, is the black pirate, rowing abept and captuing ships single- Coming—Sunday Matinee and Night “BURNING DAYLIGHT” JACK LONDON'S Trail of Adventure to | Nova Scotia coast.

S O S i S Al ALASKA FEATURE AT PALACE ON SUNDAY [ A film version of one of the maost popular novels from the pen of Jack London comes to the Pal- ace Sunday. It is “Burning Day- light,” a story of the stirring gold- rush days in Alaska. London himself was in Alaska [ during the discoyvery. of gold in Dawson in 1898, and has drawn what many persons declare is the most graphic description ever writ- ten of those times.

Gold production in . the Inter- ior for 1928 was roughly 150 per cent greater than for the pre- ceding year, according to figures showing the clearance of the precious metal from Fairbanks to Outside points. Production mount- ed in the last operating season ‘'to. . $1,250,000, an increase of $700,000. The total figure will, however, be considerably over the twelve hundred and fifty thou- sand dollar \mark as it is prob- able that a considerable amount was dispatched direct to the Stateg. from the point at which it was mined. Quartz mines adjacent to Fair- banks produced $75,000° of the total, an increase of $30,000. There is every reason to bélieve that the development of pros- pects into producers will account for an. even larger percentage of increase during the present year. { | { { % POLO Did you ever stop to think of how impor- tant it is for these young peéple who play Polo to keep healthy? @ Do you xealize that to Keep fit for this . exacting gzme they muse guard their | “ health and kecg their sgstemsregular at all times?
