From the very beginning when you see Lewis Stome as the crooked political boss fighting his boyhood chum, now the editor of the Free Press, played by Henry B. Walthall who is conducting a ficrce campaign to bring out the identity of the members of the vice ring, you know you are in for a thrilling hour or more of entertainment. One is as ruthless in his pursuit of good as the other is of evil, erful characterizations meriting praise as the finest performances of the month on the local screen. The love story is moving in its pathos but finally emerges trium- phant. Marceline Day and Mal- colm McGregor furnish the juven- ile Imme\t with sincerity. The co-featurc will offer Reginald Denny in his new speed picture “The Night Bird." As an added at- traction the first of a new series of {*The Collegians” will be offered with the above program. George Lewis and all the east of the past series will again be offered in the latest series.
