Roosevelt is rapidly coming to the fore as a lead ip pictures portraying the life of the ranch and mining cities of the west, J'Rip-Roaring Roberts" affords him exccllent op- portunities to displaw the pep that marks his feature pictures, and his work in this picture is up to the usual high standard, Roberts battles his way through the gang whose leader he, as a speclal sheriff, is seeking to bring to justice, ac- complishes his mission and wins the heart of the little girl who nurses him back to health. “Th platal Mistake depicts events in the lives of men whose mission it is to furnish the public with an account of the day's doings. 'The story deals with the quest of a go-getter reporter for a “scoop” and feature a mad rush to get his “yarn” into the office of a metropolitian dally hefore the huge presses begin to roll. Ten stars were brought together to make “Broken Barriers,” which will be featured on Monday, Tues- day and Wednesday. Such names as Mae Busch, Robert Agnew, Norma Shearer, Winifred Bryson, James Kirkwood, Vera Reynolds, Robert T¥razer, Adolph Menjou, George TFawcett and Ruth Stonehouse, guar- antee the popularity of “Droken Parriers” during its three day show- ing. It is story dealing with the mad pace of jazz crazed youth pitted against the slow tread of conven- tion, Much of the main interest in the film hinges on the stirring epi- «ode wherein the dis rous culmina- tion of a joyride is vividly depicted, The Other Kind of Love,” and “Over the Top With the Allies” make up a double feature bill plan- ned for Thursday, I'riday and Sat- urday. *“The Other Kind of Love" is a simple drama of human pas- sions. Dorothy Revier is an orphan brought up by a woman who has 1wo sons, both of them love the girl. I'tom this premise, the story de- veiops to a point where the situa- tion seems desperate but from the happenings of one thrilling night, the dramatist succeeds in solving his problem and the dawn shines bright with hope and promise for the fami- ly. The second fature is an au- thentic story of the World War that las packed every theater in which it has been shown. It is a story of the great conflict from heginning to end, with thrilling and human in- terest scenes aplenty. GOUNTY Y. F. W, MEETING Private Walter J.
