Most of the scenes were taken in Wyoming on the historical frontier spots which give the pic- ture morvelous backgrounds, from a scenlc and phgmgraphlc angle. Marjorie Daw does convincing work as the heroine of the film and William Fairbanks makes a splendid “heavy.” Chief Big Tree, an Indian actor, also gives a most convincing performanse.
