FOREWORD
This Descriptive Classified Catalog has been prepared, to aid members of the Kodascope Libraries, in selecting Library Films.
Kodascope Films are 16 m/m (^ inch) in width and are made only on slow burning film, which is free from insurance restrictions and does not re- quire a fireproof booth.
A full reel of Kodascope Film is approximately 400 feet in length and has the same number of "frames" or pictures as a standard 1,000-foot reel of theatrical size film. It requires the same length of time for projection at normal speed — 16 minutes.
Suggestions to Members
A Film Library is like a Book Library in that it is subject to constantly changing demands for the subjects in its possession. Unlike a Public Library, however, a Film Library is a business institution, which must earn its ex- penses and a fair return upon the capital invested, and it is quite evident that this can be done only by keeping the films continually in use. This means that the Members cannot send in a list of subjects desired, and expect to get all of them at once. In selecting subjects, Members are urged to send in a list with two or three alternates, otherwise the Librarians will be compelled to substitute subjects of which some may not be as satisfactory to the Members.
To assist in an intelligent selection of subjects with the least necessary effort subjects in the Kodascope Libraries are arranged in eight classes as follows :
Reel num-
Class Subjects hers from
1. Travel, Sports, Manners and Customs 1,000 up
2. Industries and Agriculture 2,000
3. Popular Science, Useful Arts and Natural History 3,000
4. Comedies and Juvenile 4,000 "
5. Religious 5,000 "
6. Reconstructed and Modern History 6,000 "
7. Animated Cartoon Comedies 7,000 "
8. Dramas 8,000 "
Where two or more subjects are combined on a single reel, each subject is given an independent number corresponding to its class. Subjects will not be divided and shipped in parts,
3
Members will obtain greater satisfaction from the regular weekly use of a definite number of reels than from the desultory or occasional use of an ir- regular number.
Five reels make a very popular program. Most of the features are of that length, and will not be divided. Also, with five reels an excellent miscel- laneous program can be selected, covering a variety of subjects. However, programs of any length can be obtained.
If for any reason, Members having regular weekly service wish to suspend one or more shipments, it is only necessary to advise the Librarian to that effect, before the scheduled shipments are made.
Explanation of Film Service Charges
The principal item of expense to a Film Library is the replacement of the film. The continuous use of a Library film causes it gradually to wear out. This wear may not be apparent for a long time, but eventually those films — new today — will have to be replaced by others. Therefore, rental charges must cover the inspection, repair and eventual replacement.
It is quite evident that no Kodascope Library can afford the transportation charges and loss of time incidental to furnishing a program to a Member in a distant city, for the same price that it could receive from each of two or more local Members who could use it during the same period of time.
Therefore, the charges for film service depend on the Member's distance from the Library.
The basing rate shown in this catalog is for one day's use within any Libra- ry's city limits (local zone).
For reels held more than one day, in any zone, add 50% to the basing rate for each extra day held, whether used or not. (See "Films Ordered for Particular Date" on page 6.)
For points outside of any Library City but in the first and second postal zones (0-150 miles), add 10% of the basing rate (unless carried in both direc- tions).
For points in the third and fourth zones (150-600 miles) add 25% of the basing rate.
For the fifth and sixth zones (600-1400 miles) add 50% of the basing rate.
For the seventh and eighth zones (over 1400 miles) add 75% of the bas- ing rate.
At the rates quoted for the various postal zones, Kodascope Libraries make no charge for loss of time in transit and rentals are charged for reels only while in the Member's possession.
Transportation by parcel post is included in above rates and will be paid by the Kodascope Branch Libraries.
A minimum charge of $1.50 will be made for any Film Service rendered.
Note: Minor repairs, such as breaks, cleaning, etc., will be made by the Kodascope Libraries without charge, but serious injury will be charged to the Member.

Purpose of Membership Fee
At its inception the Kodascope Library faced the alternative of establishing a completely equipped credit department, or the simpler requirement of a Mem- bership Fee. The former plan would have necessitated increasing our basing rentals on Film Service to cover its cost, together with that of the extra book- keeping involved and an occasional loss through the fallibility of any credit system.
It was decided that a cash business at the lowest price, with a small Member- ship Fee, would be more satisfactory to our large number of Members from all over the United States, many of whom would necessarily be mail order customers. Several years of experience have very happily justified this policy. Any other arrangement than a Membership Fee would require an increase in the entire schedule of basing rates of rental.
This Membership Fee of $25.00 is refundable upon request to Members in good standing who wish to discontinue film service.
Members enjoy a discount of 10% from the published catalog rates.
The $25.00 Membership Fee justifies the Library in starting film service, but is not applicable to the payment of current bills.
Library Service to Non-Members
Although Kodascope Libraries are operated primarily for the benefit of Members enrolled, non-members who can establish satisfactory credit rating may obtain film service at rates published in this Descriptive Catalog.
Non-members pay only the rentals published in the catalog (without the extra 10% formerly added.)
Paying for Film Service
Whenever films are returned to the Library, a charge for their rental will be mailed and should be paid at once, to avoid possible inteiTuption of Film Service.
Why Rental is Charged for Every Day Held
The profits of a Film Library depend upon the continuous earnings of its films; idle films make no profit.
The fact that a customer holding films may not be using them does not lessen his responsibility.
A taxi waiting for you at the door; a forgotten gas jet burning in the cellar; money borrowed from a bank, even though unused; idle films on your closet shelf; all have to be paid for whether you derive any benefit from them or not. The taxi driver, the gas company, the bank, and the film library are equally entitled to their proper charges for service rendered.
Films Ordered for a Particular Date
The Kodascope Libraries cannot accept responsibility for unusual delays in Parcel Post, but films ordered for a particular date are shipped by us far enough in advance to allow for all reasonable delays. Frequently these reels arrive a day, or even two days, before the date wanted. If they are held by the customer, used only on the date for which they were ordered and returned to us the following day, only a single day's charge will be made.
If, however, the customer wishes to use them before the particular date he may do so, but in this case they must be returned the day following such use if only a single day's charge is to be made.
5
In other words, films ordered for a particular date cannot be used both on the particular date and also on one or more previous (or following) days, without paying for all the days on which the films are used.
Members are urged to fill in the spaces on the return label showing the date on which the films were sent back to the Library. This date is accepted by the Library as a basis for billing and careful attention to this important detail will avoid misunderstandings.
Mail orders will be acknowledged if requested.
Ordering Films By Telegraph
Members in good credit standing can always order Library subjects by tele- graph with the assurance that such orders will receive immediate and careful attention, if received in time to be filled during regular office hours.
In order to shorten these telegrams, we have prepared a code which can be easily used.
If the subjects are desired for showing on a certain day, it is only necessary to mention the day of the week as the first word in the message.
For each subject selected, at least two alternates should be listed, and for such
alternates the code word should be prefixed with "or" both written as a
single word. For each additional subject wanted the code word should be prefixed with "and" both written as a single word.
If the subjects are ordered by telegraph on very short notice, so that it is doubtful if they can reach their destination by ordinary parcel post, the subscriber who wishes to avail himself of the advantages of "Special Delivery" (which includes Special Handling) can signify such attention by using the single word "Delivery."
As an example of the advantages of this abbreviated system of ordering, take the following ordinary telegraphic form:
"Please ship me for showing Monday evening Little Church Around the Corner or Where the North Begins or Heart of a Hero and Adventurer or Easy Street or Felix in the Bone Age special delivery."
Abbreviated as outlined above, this message would read:
"Monday sagi orsaga orsabur andgade orgadu ornafa delivery."
In ordering by wire, do not forget that to avoid disappointment or substitu- tion, it is necessary to select alternates, or if you prefer to leave the selection of substitutes to the Librarian, add the single word "Substitute." This the Librarian will understand to mean that you wish a substitute from the same class of subjects in which the selected subject is not available.
To avoid disappointment by delays in transit, it is better when ordering sub- jects either by letter or by wire, to allow at least one day more than would usually be necessary for ordinary parcel post transmission.
If a particular subject is desired and no alternate or substitute will be accept- able, then it is desirable for the member to make such reservation a week or two in advance, requesting definite acceptance if possible.
With a few exceptions Kodascope Library subjects may be purchased. Prices will be quoted on application. Reels sold are not returnable.

Films in Color
For years you have enjoyed in the theatres the magnificent pictures in color which reproduce nature in entrancing realism. Probably you have often wished that you could secure these color productions for your home enjoyment.
Now this treat is available to every owner of a 16 mm pro- jector, without adding any accessory of any kind to your pro- jector. The color is in the film! Furthermore, these color films project almost as large and bright screen images as plain black and white films.
The added attraction which these new Kodascope Color Sub- jects will have for home audiences is incalculable. Scenes from these subjects will be like animated paintings on your home screen — beautiful stories, colorfully told. Additional Color Subjects will be added as rapidly as the demand justifies.
MAUD MULLER
Beautiful dramatization of Whittier's poem with its youthful glamour and reminiscent regret. Sumptuous settings in charming colors. See page 204.
ROMANY LOVE
Romance of a gypsy swain and his sweetheart (coveted by the chief) , in all the colorful environment of the caravan and the camp-fire. See page 204.
MISSION BELLS
A story woven around one of the old picturesque California Missions. The tolling of the bells stays a vengeful Indian's murderous hand. See page 204.

The Film Prayer
By A. P. Hollis
I am film, not steel; O user, have mercy. I front dangers whenever I travel the whirring wheels of mechanism. Over the sprocket wheels, held tight by the idlers, I am forced by the motor's might. If a careless hand misthreads me, I have no al- ternative but to go to my death. If the pull on the take-up reel is too violent, I am torn to shreds. If dirt collects in the aper- ture, my film of beauty is streaked and marred, and I must face my beholders — a thing ashamed and bespoiled. Please, if I break, never fasten me with pins which lacerate the fingers of my inspec- tors. Don't rewind me — my owner wants that privilege, so that he may examine me, heal my wounds, and send me rejuvenated upon a fresh mission.
I travel many miles in tin cans. I am tossed on heavy trucks, sideways and upside down. Please see that my first few coils do not slip loose in my shipping case, and become bruised and wounded beyond the power to heal. Put me in my own can. Scrape oflf all old labels on my shipping case so I will not go astray.
Speed me on my way. Others are waiting to see me. The next day is the last day I should be held. Have a heart for the other fellow who is waiting, and for my owner who will get the blame.
I am a delicate ribbon of film — misuse me and I disappoint thousands; cherish me, and I delight and instruct the world.

1000 Code CABA Wild Animals of Africa Chester-Outing
The party of white hunters and cameramen accompanied by African natives who are shown first in a native war dance, set out from Nairobi in search of wild animals and animal pictures, passing a small drove of native cows as they embark. Their first find is a drove of Zebras, then Water-buck, Giraffes (one of which is captured). Gnu, Buffaloes, the Eland, Spring-bok and Impalla are found. Finally a successful lion hunt results in the capture of a huge lion and lioness. An en- joyable and instructive subject with clever titles by Katherine Hilliker.

Unusual views of African animals in their native haunts result, the following animals appearing in the order named : Leopard, Dog-faced Baboons, Wart-hog, Crocodiles, Hippopotami, Rhinoceros and Greater Kudu. Clever titles add to the enjoyment of the spectator. Instructive and entertaining.

1003 Code CABO A Fast Life Chester To quote the narrator, "the Rapids of British Guiana lead a scandalously
fast life." We find this true on a long journey through the turbulent rushing waters — only the skill of the boatm.en averting shipwreck on the jagged rocks in our course. No sport for weak nerves this, but for others it furnishes thrill after thrill. We are rewarded also by intimate glimpses into the lives of primitive Patamonan Indians, and see them weaving cloth, making baskets, cultivating sugar cane and crushing the stalks, making tapioca, which is one of their main food staples, and also see their ingenious method of wringing out the poisonous juices as this food is in course of preparation for eating.
The natives live in jungle homes made of branches and covered with thatched roofs — the more pretentious ones being of two stories.

of Korea and eventually reach Kongo San, founded by Buddhist Monks many hundreds of years ago in an almost inaccessible nook surrounded by high moun- tains. Here is situated a 500-year-old monastery in which a colony of 100 monks live in almost complete isolation.
Journeying on, we pass the beautiful Three Day Lake, named from the fact that its beauty enchanted the Princess who discovered it, so that for three days she gazed in rapture, forgetting either to eat or sleep.
The Kongo River flows through the middle of the valley, being fed by water- falls, some of which we are permitted to see. The Flying Phoenix and the Fall of the Nine Dragons are wonderfully picturesque and fall from great height.
With the cameraman we climb to the Pinnacle of the Clouds, from which we gain an extensive view of the wild, mountainous country. And descending again we get our final view of Kongo San from the sea.

1006 Code CABER Old China and New Chester-Outing
A most interesting travel scenic. Much of the trip was taken by boat along the labyrinthine canal system which covers much of the country. The first part of the trip is over a canal which was old as long ago as 486 B. C. Myriads of boats are seen everywhere, and an innumerable number of very picturesque arch bridges span the canals at frequent intervals. One junk-boat-building establish- ment looks as if it could furnish all the boats required in China. Riverside laun- dries are seen everywhere, and towing barges by man power seems to be a favorite method of transportation. A curious irrigating pump worked by coolies as a treadmill is followed by pictures of duck growing, fishing and picturesque sailing junks. The leaning Pagoda of Su-Chow is reminiscent of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

1007 Code CABIR Greece Post Greece is interesting to all the world as the home of ancient beauty. Modern
Greece treasures and preserves the wonderful remains of her former architectural splendor and we are here privileged to see the Parthenon, Acropolis, Propylaea, Erechtheum, Theseion, Temple of Zeus, Odeion of Herodes and many other famous buildings.
In our journey we also see many typical scenes, such as close-ups of the people, markets, churches and houses.

1008 Code CABOR Lapland Post An extremely interesting scenic showing the domestic life and habits of this
-lingular nomadic people, who live in the Far North and whose principal industry is the raising of reindeer. A number of very intimate little homelife scenes lend a charm to this subject which is seldom found in a scenic film. Children and dogs are featured quite extensively, and also some peculiarly characteristic faces and costumes.
The photography is beautiful and the subject will prove universally satis- factorv to any audience.

1009 Code CABUR Children of Holland Post A visit to the quaint and picturesque city of Volendam, Holland, where our
attention is drawn to the children in their baggy trousers, wooden shoes and winged caps. We see them at work and at play, rolling hoops, playing football, etc. Their stiff wooden shoes affect their walk, giving the children a peculiar gait. They are very particular to leave their shoes at the door when entering the house.
The streets are really the brick-paved tops of dikes which keep the water from overflowing this extremely low flat country. There are no autos on the streets nor do we see any beasts of burden or other means of transportation. Apparently "Shanks' mare" performs this service for rich and poor alike. Many of the men are fishermen on the Zuider Zee and their picturesque boats line the wharves.
We visit Marken, a small island nearby, and observe slight differences in its costumes from those of Volendam, though the general characteristics are the same and as in Volendam we see children everywhere. An instructive and fascinating journey to an unusually interesting land.

1010 Code CACA Poland Post For 150 years previous to the World War, Poland was in subjection to Russia,
Germany and Austria. These countries were compelled to grant her independence as the result of the Treaty of Versailles. About two-thirds of the population of 30,000,000 is agricultural, and this subject is concerned largely with the country life of the peasant class. Polish women have always been renov/ned for their grace and beauty. Characteristic types are shown and one is particularly im- pressed with the fact that most of the poorer people go barefooted, except to church.
357 jeet Rental $1.25
1012 Code CACI Athens Post Athens is one of the world's oldest cities. In 1068 B. C. it was already a
thriving village. It contains many historic old ruins of once famous temples and other buildings and in our trip about the city we see these as well as the more modern ones. First comes the Parthenon, built about the Sixth Century B. C. and called the "most perfect monument of ancient art." Then comes the Stadium, 330 B. C, built of Pentellic marble. This huge structure was the original site of the Olympic games and seats 50,000 people. We visit also the Place de la Con- stitution, Boulevard de I'Universite. Academy of Science and the University. On account of its fascinating history this Greek city is of interest to the whole world and one's studies in ancient history are vividly recalled by the scenes in this film.

1013 Code CACO Children of Roumania Post Despite the fact that for years the children of Roumania have been victims
of neglect and poverty, they are bright and very responsive. As a rule they know far more of work than of play. They are too valuable as workers to be forced to go to school and only those who want to go to school do so. If they don't like the teacher they stay away.
Each home has its own small flock of sheep which are generally tended by

the children, and some of the happiest of the Roumanian youngsters are the boy shepherds up in the remote parts of Transylvania. The farm houses are made of brick and mortared with mud. The bricks are mouUled by girls, who after becoming expert, can make as many as 200 in a day. The moukled bricks are baked in the sun. Brick making is hard work for a girl, but the Roumanian youngsters are used to hard work. We are given other views of them carrying heavy burdens, and have an opportunity of seeing many types of children at work and at play.

1014 Code CACU Children of Scandinavia Post These children are characteristically blond, rather slow in action but not in
mind. Many beautiful pictures of lovely little children in the most bizarre cos- tumes imaginable. Children of different parts of Scandinavia are shown. Sharp contrast is drawn between the Lapp children dwelling in the far North, and very modern looking Boy Scouts in Southern Sweden.
There are several interesting scenes of folk dancing in which the Scandi- navians excel.

1015 Code CACAR Norway Post Norway is the second Scandinavian country in size. Its entire population
is less than three million souls. In 1905 it broke away from Sweden and since that time has had a separate political existence. Many interesting views of the hardy Norwegians are shown. Excellent close-ups of peasant types, costumes, etc., as well as views of the country and cities and the famous Midnight Sun, 350 jeet Rental $1.25
1018 Code CACOR Considering Posey Chester All about llamas. A remarkable, sure-footed beast of burden used in the
upper Andes in South America.
Some clever photographic stunts are shown by reverse action, and in one double exposure the llama pack train is shown moving along the tdgo. of a lake, while their shadows move in the opposite direction just below them. Several long trains of these sure-footed beasts are seen winding along precipitous trails through wonderful mountain scenery.
Some of the queer habits and characteristics of the animals are shown, among others the fact that a herd of llamas can be entirely confined by a single rope passing around the outside of the herd resting on their bodies, but confining only their necks. It seems that the stupid beasts lack the intelligence to lower their heads and pass under the rope.
The title apparently comes from the name given to one of the llamas. An interesting travel scenic.

istic peasant costumes of many different kinds. Some of these costumes have been handed down for centuries as heirlooms in the famihes to which they belong. A number of scenes are shown of the market place in Hradisch, capital of Moravia.

Then follow several scenes of prospectors rafting down turbulent Northern rivers with their dogs on the log rafts with them. One of the unfortunate dogs is shown after an encounter with a porcupine, which has severely wounded the dog with a number of its quills around the dog's mouth.

Going on we climb down to the Marjelensee, the strangest lake in all Switzerland. It is surrounded on all sides by ice and is made of the melted ice water.

1082 Code CAST -The Cradle of Champions Sport Pictorial A clever exposition of the obvious fact that the youths of today are laying
the foundation in their athletic sports for the champion baseball and football players of the future. A number of very interesting scenes of youthful players on the corner lots are cleverly interspersed with imaginary scenes of the same players ten years hence in the baseball stadiums and football bowls. Following these is a considerable number of pictures of very beautiful mountain, forest and brook scenery, showing that after all the lure of sport is the desire of man- kind to live in the great outdoors.
A deservedly popular subject, which will interest all sport loving spectators.

opens with scenes on board fast cruisers or destroyers in a heavy sea off the Delaware Capes. Next follows a very peaceful scene of small yachts racing in the Larchmont Yacht Club Regatta. Following come a number of canoeing scenes on Lake George both under paddle and sail. Then is illustrated the saihng racing canoe with details of its centerboard, drop rudder, sliding seat, etc. A number of scenes of these craft racing in a smart breeze with acrobatic stunts of their single-man crew on the sliding seat furnish a thrill which is only surpassed by the closing scenes of high speed motor boats and hydroplanes, speeding at 30 to 60 miles an hour, circling buoys in races and coming almost head-on toward the spectator. Everyone fond of boats will be delighted with this subject.

Then come some very excellent examples of gymnastic exercises of the more advanced type. Then a few scenes of a ladies baseball team, and finally a series of wonderful drills by firemen in laying and connecting hose, climbing walls with a rope and scaling ladder and especially quick work in directing and climbing the ordinary hook and ladder.
These pictures have a real thrill that will be enjoyed by everyone.

Intimate views of the Navajo Indians of New Mexico, still living in the same primitive adobe huts as their ancestors ; grinding their own wheat into flour be- tween hand operated stones; baking bread in great out-door ovens, the same as have been used by them for centuries. We learn that these Indians are skilled craftsmen and see them making pottery, weaving blankets and making silver ornaments.

1091 Code CATE Swimmers and Swimming Iris Beginning with the first step in which children are taught the preliminary
swimming motions at their play, we see swimmers progressing through the suc- cessive stages of learning to be proficient in the water. Partially in normal and partly in slow-motion the crawl, breast, trudgeon and other strokes are illustrated. We also see imitations of the swimming methods of various animals, viz., the frog, seal, porpoise and crab. The latter part of the picture is taken up entirely with some splendidly executed figures in the water by expert girl swimmers who form symmetrical designs such as triangles, squares, circles, stars, etc., while float- ing in the water.
All swimmers will like this subject, which will be especially valuable to boys' and girls' camps, the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A. and other athletic organizations. 303 feet — on same reel with 3040, Fox Hounds and St. Bernards

1094 Code CATU Rambling Around Old Japan Burr Nickle
In Japan we do not need a guide to find interesting things to see. Turn where we may, they confront us. Wandering down to the wharf we watch the people with confetti and paper streamers bidding goodbye to the departing passengers. Our attention is then taken by the numerous freight boats which fill the harbor — one man boats many of them — whose crews and their families live on board. A train pulls in, its woman stoker hard at work. Human labor must be cheap. Here is a gang of women operating a pile-driver, and furnishing all the motive power to raise the heavy weight. The men also work hard, and we see them hauling wagons and carts over the poor roads. Babies are every- where, generally strapped on the back of their mothers. They look strong and well and we are shocked to learn that 350 out of every 1,000 die before the age of five.

Approaching London we have a marvelous view of the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Bridge with its Big Ben Tower and the other prominent buildings, which as we rapidly pass them stand out with stereoscopic effect. On we fly over the English farming country with its hedges and well tilled fields until over Beachy Head, we have our last glimpse of England. Then tea is served, and in a few minutes having passed a return plane. La Belle France comes into view. Again we pass over a wonderful countryside consisting of small, intensively cul- tivated farms, and for a long distance we follow a famous old road built centuries ago by Caesar and still in constant use. Then we reach our destination, and after an easy landing we alight in Paris only two and a half hours after leaving London.
An extremely interesting subject. Photography excellent.

With a party of well equipped campers and guides we start our trip, passing Devil's Post-pile, Pilot Knob, Bishop Pass, Jackass Meadow, Mammoth Peak and other points of grandeur and beauty until we reach Mt. Humphrey, 14,000 feet high. Continuing, we see Graveyard Peaks, Silver Pass, Devil's Washbasin, the Minarettes, beautiful Shadow Lake, and finally Mt. Ritter, also 14,000 feet in height. On account of the inaccessibility of the region, these sights are actually seen by comparatively few of the travelers to California, and this film offers to all an opportunity to see what the majority would otherwise miss.

This trip is so strenuous that not all, even of those who do go to the Yosemite, are able to take it.

From the Field and Stream series of sports pictures The wild turkey is the wariest bird that flies and great skill and patience are required in hunting him. Setting out with guides from the lodge of the Woodmont Rod and Gun Club in western Maryland, we tramp through the snow to the turkey rendezvous. Here we hide in the underbrush and after waiting until we are all but chilled through, we are rewarded by a splendid shot which brings down our first bag. This is followed by others, and we return to the lodge hungry and laden with turkeys.
Rain holds us indoors for three days, after which with the snow all gone, we again sally forth — this time with even more success. And on the way home we are interested spectators while the gamekeepers dig out a fox which has been making inroads on the turkey population.

Official U. S. Government Film taken at Brooks Field, Texas, where Lindbergh learned to fly.
The story of two young men, of widely different social standing, who decide to take up aviation and who happen to arrive at the same time at the aviation field. All they apparently have in common is a love for flying — but before their course ends and they become full-fledged fliers, they are fast friends, each willing to take any risk for the other.
The picture has a human interest appeal in addition to being an unusually complete and well-photographed film of how the Government is training men for both army and commercial aviation. All the hopes and disappointments, the feats and thrills, that the two students experience are worked into the picture so effectively that you find yourself sharing their emotions, wondering with them what will happen next, and whether they will make good in their first solo flight!

Coast of Mexico — the fisherman's paradise.
An 800-pound tuna is the first large fish sighted, and caught on a rod and reel. A shark attacks the hooked tuna and there develops a three-cornered battle, man versus tuna, tuna versus shark. The tuna is finally brought aboard. Now, to get the shark! Which is accomplished after another stirring battle.
Then comes the harpooning of a giant manta weighing several tons. After towing the boat the manta turns, plunges against the rowboat and capsizes it, throwing the men into the shark-infested waters, from which they are rescued.
A diver is sent down and is photographed by the special under-sea camera amid the beauties of the ocean — truly a dreamland. Suddenly and octopus appears behind the diver. A native boy dives down to warn the diver, who forthwith discards his heavy helmet and boots, and escapes to the surface — all clearly shown through the under-sea camera.
Then comes a fight between a 120-foot whale, weighing over 100 tons, who is attacked by his deadly enemy, a 15-foot swordfish. After this fight has been raging for some time, the whale is harpooned, brought alongside and big gaping wounds made by the swordfish are seen by the under-sea camera as sharks tear at the wounds. Then the sportsmen go after this demon sword- fish with rod and reel. After he is hooked, the greatest fishing picture ever made shows the tremendous leaps of this swordfish, time and again, entirely clear of the surface and sometimes executing complete barrel-rolls while in the air! Finally, he is brought to grips alongside the small boat by one of the daring fishermen, who is shown hauling him aboard with his bare hands, after a terrific struggle in which the result is long in doubt.

The Abalone is a shell fish something like a very large oyster, but having a much more beautiful shell. It is obtained by divers, in the Pacific Ocean off the southwestern boundary of the United States. The diving boats and the divers are shown above the surface of the water, but not at all in the depths. The devil fish and octopus is frequently encountered in these waters and a small specimen is shown on the deck of the diving boat.
What are known as "free" pearls are found in the tissue of the Abalone, and what are known as "blister" pearls are found attached to the interior shell surface. Both are formed by a deposit of nacre or the iridescent pearl substance secreted by the Abalone to encase some foreign irritating substance like a grain of sand, which accidentally finds its way into the shell, where it irritates the occupant until rendered innocuous by this deposit, which in time becomes a pearl,

of Alaska. The small fish grow rapidly, swim down stream to the sea and then for three years disappear no man knows where. Then at the return of the spawning season, they come back in "runs" of millions, enter their native rivers and fight madly upstream to the spot from which they originally came, where they spawn and die.
Here are some remarkable pictures of these frenzied salmon, not only swim- ming upstream, but actually up through and over waterfalls that would kill a man.
It is while they are crowding in the rivers, fighting their way up to the spawning grounds, that they are caught and sent to the canneries, which are part of Alaska's greatest industries.

The foxes are always handled by th^ tail and with heavy gloves, as they are nervous and quick with their teeth. The farm is carefully guarded night and day to prevent theft or escape of the valuable "crop."

Then a Mother Wolf with puppies and some close-ups of one of the wolf pups with an Airedale eating from the same dish. Then follow some animal stunts such as the Bison making his wallow of dust to free himself from vermin ; the Giraffe drinking, as an evidence that water can be made to run uphill; a Monkey apparently engaged in earnest conversation and some very beautiful little Flying Squirrels from the Antipodes. Among ultra- rarities is shown an Australian Marsupial Bear, who looks for all the world like one of our toy Teddy Bears. Next a pygmy elephant is shown and the comparison drawn with the ordinary species. One of the interesting scenes is of a thoroughly domesticated groundhog who assists the keeper in gather- ing papers left upon the lawn at the Zoo.

Then a baby Orang-utan is shown amusing itself in a bucket. Then the Bears are given a bath and the Cassowary gives an exhibition in hard kicking. In this, however, he is easily surpassed by the Kangaroo who follows. Then the Wild Horse of Thibet is shown as one of the most vicious of wild animals, in his attempt to attack a man up a tree and later in tearing a dummy man to shreds. The Russian Stag is shown to be about equally vicious. Then the Tapir is shown with its peculiar markings, followed by a couple of Alpacas who look very much like young Llamas. The Indian Rhinoceros is shown in his armor-plate skin and the brilliant coloring of the Axis Deer is in strong contrast.

Will, living 'way out in the great open spaces on the White Horse Ranch, is sent to town for a bottle of Doane's Horse Liniment. He hitches up the team and starts on his errand.
In town he finds horses so much out of date that he acquires a Ford car, after leaving his team tied to a police traffic Stop-Go sign.
His troubles begin when he tries to find a parking place in town after town and city after city. Not being able to park near a drug store in either Ogden or Salt Lake, we find him in Oakland, where he is told about a week before there was a place in San Francisco. He hastens there, only to be disappointed again. His route is then to Los Angeles by way of New Orleans and El Paso. He continually runs into the toils of the police and acquires a collection of "tickets," which would make even a museum proud to own. The only place where he avoids the police is Seattle — where he goes through at night.

On account of considerable trouble in getting their old car started, Char- ley takes it to a used car seller, who sells it to a recently released gunman, taking 80% as his commission. The deal is no sooner completed than the car falls to pieces and Charley has to flee.
Charley's employer has been dancing with the gunman's wife and on hearing of his being free, asks Charley to drive her to his cabin. They start off, the employer following them in a taxi, the gunman following him, and Charlie's wife (always suspicious of Charlie's actions), bringing up the rear of the procession.
At the cabin a "Prohibition Sleuth" has a bag containing disguises and before the story ends we find not only one caretaker but four dodging each other and at the same time trying to escape detection.

Caiaphas, High Priest of Israel— A Roman Noble Lionel Belmore
Rudolph Schildkraut A Prince of Persia Sojin.
"King of Kings" is an elaborate and reverent attempt to use the motion picture as a means of telling the greatest story in the world.
The tilm drama opens with the brilliant scene in the house of Mary of Magdala, and here the elaboration of luxury is used to mark the contrast with the Magdalene's shame and repentence when she finds herself face to face with Christ. She has gone to Him to win back her lover, Judas the betrayer. She remains to become the most faithful and devoted of His followers.
The character of Judas is developed with subtlety and skill. He sees in the Alan of Nazareth a national leader who may drive out the Romans and restore a free Judea to a place among the nations. He is impatient of the all embracing pity and the care for the poor. He gradually realizes the disap- pointment of his hopes and that his Master dreams of a Kingdom of which he has no conception, and it is in a fury of resentment that he plays the traitor's part in the Garden of Gethsemane, as it is in a fury of remorse that he throws down the thirty pieces of silver before the High Priest and goes out and hangs himself.
The miracles, the gentle care for children and for the lowly are shown in picture after picture. There is dramatic force in the driving of the money- changers from the Temple where Our Lord appears as a strong man filled with righteous resentment. And so the drama reaches its climax in Gethse- mane, in the meeting place of the Sanhedrin, in the hall of Pilate's palace and finally, on Mount Calvary.
Immense pains have been taken to make each character vivid and indi- vidual. Thus Peter, destined to be the leader of his brethren after his Master's death, is shown as a gigantic, impulsive fisherman, tender of heart but infirm.

Matthew is the man of affairs, who, even when called to higher things, does not quite lose a certain shrewdness. And the Virgin Mary is a figure of infinite dignity. and love, and in the end, of awful sorrow.
With our Lord Himself the producer has had to face and overcome the greatest difficulties. No artist can hope quite to represent the greatest of all figures, be he painter, poet, or actor. But this may at least be said, that in the "King of Kings" there is no unworthy suggestion of the qualities of the Saviour of the world.

of Michael Angelo Michael Angelo, famous as artist, sculptor and architect, is by many con- sidered one of the greatest geniuses that ever lived. At the opening of this story he was at work on his statue of Moses. His fame had grown so great that rival artists were jealous and hoping that he would fail as a painter, persuaded Pope Julius the Second to command him to paint the Sistine Chapel. Michael Angelo suspected their purpose, but accepted the commission, and for four years he worked on his back painting the wonderful ceiling of the Chapel. The finished work is the greatest masterpiece that the hand of man has ever turned out. It is very large, covering the entire ceiling with a design portraying numerous biblical incidents and containing three hundred and forty-three different figures. Even his rivals were forced to acknowledge the marvelous beauty of the design and its execution. The task finished, the master returned to his statue of Moses, which now stands in the little church of San Pietro in Rome.

Featuring Irving Cummings
Sergeant McTish, Corporal Jim Campbell and Private Bob Hammon are stationed in the Sweetwater Post of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police on the outlook for moonshiners. One day Corporal Jim captures a gang of three — two of them rough looking men and the third a young "boy." The men are locked up in the Post jail, but the boy seems so young that they allow him to eat with them and also to remain outside the jail that night. Next morning they find all their prisoners gone, but right after making this discovery, the boy comes back, and explains that he was forced, through his fear of the moonshiners, to aid in their escape, although he later escaped from them and returned to the Post. To their great astonishment they then discover that the "boy" is in reality a girl who has been held in the power of the moonshiners and who tells them a pitiful story.
The men are touched and decide to do all they can to help the girl and upon the arrival of the Padre that day, they turn the girl over to him to be put in a school where she will have good care and an education. Corporal Jim gives the Padre all his small savings to be used for the various needs of the girl, Mary, while she is at the school.
The search for the moonshiners then continues and results in their capture, but not until after Corporal Jim has been shot by one of them. His recovery is greatly cheered by the letters he receives from Mary and the attachment begun under such unusual circumstances continues until four years later when she grad- uates from the school and the story ends as all good movies should — the young couple presumably living happily ever after.

Inspired by the famous painting of the same title by Rembrandt. A touching, modern story of a young painter who finds inspiration in a copy of the original painting.
His ambition to succeed in his profession is fostered by his friendship for the beautiful girl who takes art lessons from him at his studio on Long Island.
She is the daughter of wealthy parents and is beloved by a very fine young man, who was the soldier companion of the young painter during the world-war.
Realizing his inability to provide for a wife in the style that his sweetheart has been accustomed to, the artist goes away to a city studio where he befriends an orphan newsboy, who becomes his companion.
Stricken with illness, the young painter gradually loses his strength until he is a mere shadow of his former self, when at last discovered by the other man, who realizes that the heroine's heart is given to the young painter. Alas, the ill- ness has progressed too far and the painter passes away surrounded by those he loves and who love him. The final scene where his soul leaves its mortal tenement and follows the master, is one of great beauty and pathos. The entire production is beautifully directed and inspired by lofty sentiment and exquisite ideals. 782 feet — on 2 reels Rental $1.50

terest, such as the rider with the pardon to save the falsely accused spy at the last moment, are convincingly staged and acted, and only the most criti- cal of audiences will fail to be moved by the action, which has many good moments. The tale moves swiftly and is exciting at all times. Moreover, it is carefully appointed as to Colonial dress and scenes and the large num- ber of exteriors required are well chosen. Picturesque interiors have been furnished.
Alice Brady, as the patriotic Betsy Ross, appears in an emotional role, and is entirely satisfactory.- The principal support is in the hands of John Bowers, Lillian Cook, and Frank Mayo, all of whom are well cast.

8009 Code SABUR The Heart of a Hero World
Featuring Robert Warwick and Gail Kane
A visualization of the Life of Nathan Hale, founded on the play, "Nathan Hale," by Clyde Fitch.
"The Heart of a Hero," a story which once seen will never be forgotten. Founded on the events we never tire of hearing and reading about, it de- scribes the dangers and worries of those brave soi:ls who made possible our present day prosperity. It begins at the peaceful New England schoolhouse where Nathan Hale is engaged. The industrious people of the time are pre-- sented at work and play. Then rapidly the action changes and the dissen- sion with England begins to assume large proportions. We are now carried through the days when to pledge allegiance to the Colonists meant practically gambling away one's life. The success of their perseverance is responsible for our present preeminence as a Nation. Though showing extensively the events which transpired, the play follows chiefly the life of Nathan Hale up to the point where he rendered his immortal speech, "I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country."
The story is full of self-sacrifice. Robert Warwick makes of Nathan Hale a character you will always remember. His sweetheart, Alice, as played by Gail Kane, will have your entire sympathy and admiration for her devo- tion both to him and to her country's cause.
Her pride of over a century ago is shared today by all true Americans. Nathan Hale is a character which will always be an inspiration to his coun- trymen to accomplish "big things."
Were it not for just such noble patriots as Nathan Hale, the present day United States would not be in existence. You will be given an opportunity to see just how great were the hardships our forefathers had to undergo in order that today we might be a free nation.

He suc- cessfully apprehends one of the trio, who had escaped arrest at the hands of the sheriff where the crime was committed. Instead of sending this young man to prison he places him upon his honor to reform.
Two years later, now as a trusted employee of the local lumber com- pany this former criminal is approached by his two companions in the last raid, who have meanwhile served time for that crime. They threaten to ex- pose him if he interferes with their attempt to rob the office of his employ- ers. In despair he goes to the Marshal and tells him of his dilemma. By an original method of procedure, the Marshal handles the situation in such a way that these other two criminals are reformed just as effectually as the first one.
There is a little thread of romance running thru the story, which is a very pleasing one and of the type of which we have altogether too few in the motion picture field. Recommended for any and every audience.

Corporal Campbell of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police is stationed near the outpost of the Beacon Bay Fur Trading Post at Rupert, Canada, and is in love with Mary, the daughter of Tim McDuff, manager of the Trading Company's Store.
There is a big dance at the Main Post Quarters, a fact which is taken advantage of by Hall, the traveling representative of the Fur Company, and an accomplice, to rob the company's safe. The theft is discovered during the dance, and Hall accuses Mary's father of having taken the money. Cor- poral Campbell is called upon to arrest him, and does so in order to throw the real thieves off their guard by making them believe he thinks McDuff guilty.
In quick succession, however, things happen to confirm Campbell's belief that Hall himself and his accomplice are the guilty ones. He therefore plans a trick which shows them up, and after a thrilling fight captures both of the outlaws.

an article in "The Ladies' Home Journal" entitted, "When the Movies Are Good" :
"I have just seen a motion picture which in addition to being genu- inely interesting has also a really high degree of artistry.
'Bill' is an adaptation of Anatole France's 'Crainquebille.' It is the saga of an old fruit vender who doesn't understand much of the world and against whom the world beats pitilessly. He is misunderstood, ar- rested, tried. He has lost his friends. He tries to go back to jail where he was comfortable. When he wants to be arrested, they refuse to arrest him. What a strange life, to be sure. A simple piece of character acting finely presented. ^
'It has a great human appeal, which is more far-reaching than any sex appeal, or heart interest, or suspense. 'Bill' haa an instinct for justice and he sees it meted out whenever he can in his small circle, particularly to the newspaper boy and his dog.

Galloway, regarding Felice with covetous eyes, orders Gabrielle to go to Skagway with a valuable load of furs, but sends the Fox ahead to kill him and

steal the furs. The Fox shoots Gabrielie, but the latter rolls down a snow bank and crawls away badly wounded while the Fox is hiding the furs. In the follow^- ing blizzard he is found by wolves who are about to tear him to pieces when Rin-tin-tin, the wolf-dog, arrives and fights the pack leader for the prey. He kills the wolf and then starts for Gabrielie, who, weak from his wound, fights feebly and falls in a faint. The dog leaps upon him, but suddenly instinct — the inborn instinct of his ancestors — tells him that this is Man, his friend. And so instead of hurting him he stays near to guard him. Later the Fox returns to make sure that Gabrielie is dead and seeing him alive shoots at him again. He is about to finish him with a knife when the dog leaps to the attack and almost kills him before the Fox succeeds in making his escape.
How Gabrielie finally succeeds in making his way back to the post; how Galloway again attempts to injure him; how the dog and the Fox again meet in deadly encounter; how the net of justice gradually tightens about Galloway; how the dog finally kills the Fox and brings about the capture of Galloway and the happy union of Gabrielie and Felice, will have to be seen to be appreciated. It's the greatest dog story ever written, the hero is a magnificent animal with almost human intelligence. And the ending — another surprise — will also delight you.

A Screen Classic showing the triumph of supreme Christian Faith.
David Graham, whose father was killed in the great coal mine, is a boy of deep religious feeling to which he gives expression in Sunday meetings of the children who listen spellbound to his boyish sermons until a bad boy shatters their faith because David cannot perform the miracle of making a deaf and dumb girl talk through the faith he expounds.
He is educated by the mine owner and accepts the pastorate of a fashionable church in the city. He is deeply in love with the mine owner's daughter who reciprocates his affection, but his conscience continually urges him to go back to his people of the mines.
The miners feel that proper precautions are not being taken for their safety and send a delegation which interrupts a reception being given in the city by the mine owner. David, who is a guest, takes the part of the miner delegation in an effort to persuade the owner to improve the conditions in his mine. Un- successful in this, he leaves the city and goes back to take his place among the miners just as a cave-in at the mine occurs.
Then follows a long series of tremendously dramatic scenes in the mine, showing those imprisoned gradually succumbing to the lack of air and the frantic efforts of the rescuers extending over many hours of time to release them. No stronger sustained suspense can be imagined than is portrayed during this trying ordeal. Its effect upon the families of the miners, upon the officers and owmer of the mine and upon the workers, is heart-gripping to every spectator. The final rescue finds hardly a dry eye in the audience.

Titles by Irvin S. Cobb
In this picture, adapted from the book of the same title, Jackie plays the part of an almost incorrigible but utterly lovable little scamp who annoys the grocer, enrages his father and frightens his loving mother.
The story opens with Jackie releasing the man-eating lion from his cage in the circus under the mistaken impression that the lion, being a man-eater, would be indifferent to lunching on a little boy. Here we get a good thrill at the very beginning of the story, and are prepared for the series of highly diverting inci- dents which follow in rapid succession. Jackie is seen to be lunching continu- ously but indiscriminately on prunes, ice cream, dried apples, dill pickles, bananas, cheese, etc., and for some inexplicable reason accumulates a "tummy ache" from the mixture. At home and in bed, upon being assured by the doctor that he will not die if he takes the Castor Oil, he begs the doctor to take away the Castor Oil and let him die in peace.
The number of escapades in which Jackie engages are too numerous to be mentioned here, but probably the star performance is capturing a bottle full of ants which are carefully domiciled in his father's lumbago pad just before that worthy puts on the pad to go to church.
Justice can hardly be done to this comedy drama in a printed description and it must be seen to be thoroughly appreciated and enjoyed.

Featuring William S. Hart, Robert McKim, Marguery Wilson
and Louise Glaum
Draw Egan is the head of a band of notorious outlaws, who are closely pur- sued by the sheriff and a large posse. Up hill and down vale, through stupend- ous mountain passes, ride the outlaws, hotly pursued. At a cabin in the moun- tains they make their last stand, and a terrific bombardment occurs. The bandits make their escape through a trapdoor. The cowardly member of the band, "Arizona Joe," sneaks out of the background, only to fall into the clutches of the posse.
The band scatters and a little later we see Draw Egan alone maintaining his usual reputation for bravery in a saloon quarrel, where he is narrowly watched by Mr. Buckton, who is looking for a town marshal for the neighboring town of Yellow Dog.
Next we see Draw Egan as the champion of the reform element in the town of Yellow Dog, maintaining law and order in the saloon and closing it on Sunday. He is a model town marshal, but much of the credit of his rule is due to his affection for Myrtle Buckton, the daughter of his sponsor.
"Arizona Joe" escapes from the penitentiary, returns to the town, recognizes [he marshal as his former bandit chief and spurred to revenge by the Queen of the Dance Hall (Louise Glaum), who has been plainly snubbed by the marshal, he decides to "show him up" before the town.
Of course, his friends in the Reform League are aghast at this new informa- tion, but the marshal, while admitting his identity and expressing his willingness to "give up" at sundown, expresses his intention of holding office long enough to make a prisoner of "Arizona Joe." Joe tries to shoot him from ambush, but fails and is victim of the marshal's unerring aim. After having a few hours to think it over, the Reform League decides that a live town marshal, even if he is an ex-bandit leader, is better than a dead one, or one returned to jail. Therefore, they retain him as marshal and pronounce him friend. The marshal's romance reaches a happy climax, in which we all rejoice.
This is one of William S. Hart's best type of western pictures, and with due tolerance for the bar room and dance hall scenes as typical of a by-gone era, the average audience will heartily appreciate this subject.

Terrence O'Toole is a young Irishman who decides to seek his fortunes in America whence his father has returned after a brief sojourn in the United States some years before. Some very amusing native Irish scenes occur in the beginning of the subject. Later Terry is seen in the capacity of a motorman in a small American city The president and vice-president of the trolley com- pany are each owners of forty-nine shares of the stock and the balance of control is vested in two other shares belonging to a Mr. Rosenthal, who has disappeared. Terry falls in love with the President's daughter (Doris May) and his suit is advanced by his rescue of her kid brother who is racing the trolley car in a diminutive, but perfect automobile.
Terry's father joins him and contributes very ably to the humor of the story as it expands. One of the funniest specialties in this or any other comedy is a masquerade roller skating carnival in which Terry plays the front legs and an inebriated friend the rear legs of a camel.
Near the end of the story the ownership of the missing certificates is divulged in a dramatic manner and their prospective loss is narrowly averted in a thrilling effort of the senior O'Toole, who is rescued from a burning building by Terry in a thrilling scene of danger that grips every spectator.

From the "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" Featuring Will Rogers
Washington Irving's famous story in which we find those old friends of our school days, Ichabod Crane, Katrina Van Tassel, Brom Bones and the rest, in a splendid picture which would have pleased Irving himself.
One day in 1790 there arrived in the little town of Sleepy Hollow, a new school master from Niewe Yorke, an awkward uncouth man named Ichabod Crane. He was met by the school committee and citizens and sent to "board around." Thus he met the charming Katrina Van Tassel, daughter of the richest man in the community. But Katrina had many admirers, most favored among them being Abraham Van Brunt or "Brom Bones," a handsome dare-devil of a fellow who regarded Ichabod's arrival in a not-too-friendly manner. Consequently as Ichabod seemed to find favor in Katrina's eyes Brom laid plans for his down- fall.
A delightful story, clean, cleverly acted and of both literary and historical interest. It is recommended for any audience.

Floor Back
Featuring Sir J. Forbes-Robertson in Jerome K. Jerome's famous story
To a dingy and sordid boarding house in gloomy Bloomsbury Square, London, peopled with mean-spirited and unhappy failures, comes a Stranger, seeking quarters.
The Stranger, by refusing to see in the scheming landlady and her quarrel- some boarders anything but the best, succeeds in calling out the best in each, and one after the other they become morally rehabilitated. Before his kind smile and understanding words their bickerings and meanness disappear. They grow more tolerant toward each other, and at the same time strangely happy.
Finally, when love has replaced hatred as the governing spirit of the house- hold, the Stranger passes from their midst as mysteriously as he came.
The story is in a large measure symbolical, but aside from its spiritual mes- sage it has many humorous and dramatic qualities.
The screen is fortunate to have secured for the Stranger, Sir J. Forbes- Robertson, the actor, who created the role and for eight successive seasons played it in Great Britain, the United States and Canada.

For twenty years Dan McDowell had sat on the driver's seat of Engine 27 and urged his three horses to the fires. Then came the motor apparatus. The horses were sold as so much junk. Dan's hands were too old to master the steering wheel. He was discarded, retired at a small pension.
Johnnie, his son, was studying medicine. To keep him in college required money. Dan, after a weary search, was reduced to digging in the streets. There he met "Bullet," the old fire-horse, pulling the dirt-cart. Man and beast — dis- carded as useless.
Old McDowell's humiliation was complete when he was accused of steal- ing the old fire-horse he loved so well. Then he was exonerated and released from prison just in time to hurry to a big fire. On his way he met "Bullet," again broken loose, and following the habit of years in answering the clanging bell.
Arrived at the fire Dan found that his son Johnnie and June, his sweetheart, were imprisoned beneath a pile of debris. Mounting "Bullet," Dan rushed through the flames and the horse, hitched to the debris, freed the prisoners.
Johnnie was able to finish his medical course and marry the girl of his heart while Dan found happiness in his appointment as guardian of the ex-fire horses who had been pensioned and placed under his care for the remainder of their days.
A grippingly dramatic story of American home life; of the devotion and sacrifices of a father; of the loyalty and fealty of a son. Combined with its tense drama and tender romance are some of the greatest thrills ever yet seen upon the screen.

Lobo gets a thorn in his foot and, suffering intensely, he turns for aid to David Weston, a young prospector. David is out working on a claim, whose samples show a rich deposit of borax. He is alone in his cabin far off in the country. The lone wolf, relieved of the thorn, stays on at the cabin as a com- panion and affectionate friend.
David's sweetheart, May Barstow, daughter of one of the ranchers, comes to visit the prospector and recognizes the wolf as one who had given her and Alkali Bill, the ranch cook, a terrific fright on the night of the forest fire. But, finding Lobo gentle and affectionate, she agrees with David to disguise him to protect him from attack.
Horton, meanwhile, has been interested in the borax samples that young David had shown him. David is on his way to post his claim when he meets Horton in a storm in the night. They have a terrific fight. Horton leaves his opponent for dead and makes off to town with the claim to post it for himself.
Lobo, on the track of his master, finds him lying wounded. Unable to move himself, David writes a message for May Barstow on his canteen and gives it to the wolf to bring to the girl at the ranch. Lobo, running through the fire of cowboys who have been tracking him, gets to the ranch, but there he faces certain death from the rancher's guns.
May, who has escaped from a brutal attack by Horton, pleads to let the wolf have a chance. The ranchers, with the girl and her father, approach the wolf and May gets the message.

What good is a legacy of a million dollars to a woman hater, if he must marry a girl he never has seen in order to get it? Raymond Griffith learns of this inheritance just after he has renounced all women, because a girl he was about to marry left him at the altar.
Taking his valet, Ray seeks seclusion in a Spanish village where he hopes to find few, if any women.
To his great disappointment, women of all kinds seek his company. He is nearly killed by one of them — a pretty girl in a big automobile. His valet tells Ray that this girl, Vera Reynolds, is the one his uncle has selected for him to marry! Ray remarks ecstatically that to marry such a girl would be an easy way to make a million dollars. Vera, who is an heiress, hears the remark and at once denounces him as a fortune hunter.
Stunned by her accusation, Ray tells her that she can have the whole fortune, that he wouldn't have anything to do with any part of it. Learning from his valet that Vera would get the money if he should die, Ray sets out to make away with himself. He tries a gun, but it won't discharge; he resorts to hanging him- self from a chandelier, but the fixture pulls out of the ceiling. Other attempts are equally fruitless.
As a last resort, Ray hires Beery to slay him. Then Ray and Vera make up, so when Ray sees Beery approaching, he flees through the streets. Beery catches him, only to tell him that he can't carry out the bargain, as he has reformed!

Adolphe Menjou is a bored king. His ministers advise him a large loan is necessary to save the country. There are only two ways of getting it, either through an alliance with the House of Slavonia, or through a lease of oil lands to American capitalists. The king decides to try America.
At the king's hotel in New York, while Arthur Trent and his fellow financiers are waiting for the king to arise so they can discuss the proposed oil lease, he slips out to Times Square, sees a sightseeing bus marked "Coney Island" and boards it.
By a strange coincidence, at Coney Island, the king meets again Gladys Humphreys, an American girl he had previously met in Paris, and is introduced to her friend, John Rockland. John invites him to visit him at his home in Little Falls and the king accepts.
Later at the hotel, the king orders his secretary to make the arrangements and the secretary phones John the names of the king's retinue. John is amazed, but decides to put on a big reception. He turns out the local Boy Scouts, the girls from Aunt Tabitha's school, the Mayor — in fact all the local citizens of prom- inence including the undertaker. It is a gala occasion.
Gladys is there, but Trent also shows up to negotiate the oil lease and in- terrupts the king's efforts to be alone with her. He makes her promise to meet him on a second story balcony. She does, but Trent discovers them and they are locked out. Here the king ceases to be a king, and becomes only an earnest young man romantically in love. He shields Gladys from the night air with his dress coat. When the door is opened next morning he protects her reputation by signing Trent's lease as the price of Trent's silence. Then he bids the girl farewell with deep emotion after telling her he must go on "Kinging."
It's a perfect role for Menjou. He has the temperament, the air of blase sophistication, the finished type of acting necessary for it. It is one of his greatest efforts.

Way back in 1848, just before the discovety of gold in California, a huge wagon-train of Pioneers who had gathered on the banks of the Mississippi at Westport, set out to take up homestead sites in Oregon. The trip was fraught with great danger. Not only were these hardy adventurers shut off from all supplies and out of communication with the more civilized East, but Indian attacks, prairie fires and the fording of rivers, added to the terrors of the overland journey.
Will Banion, hero of the story, is under a cloud because Sam Woodhull, who was with him in the army during the war with Mexico, has accused him of theft. Molly Wingate, the heroine, is loved by both Woodhull and Banion. She favors Banion, but cannot marry him while under suspicion. During the journey, Banion saves Molly's life several times. Their romance is not only beautiful but inspir- ing.
Woodhull becomes Banion's enemy. He and Will have a thrilling fight, in which Banion proves to be the better man. He spares Sam's life and later even rescues him, but WoodhuU's hatred continues until he meets his death while at- tempting to shoot Banion.
On the way there comes news of the discovery of gold in California and the wagon-train separates, Banion and part of the wagons going south, and the others continuing north into Oregon. Molly remains with the Oregon contingent and after Banion's departure, learns of his innocence of the theft charged to him. And a few months later, Banion with plenty of California gold, follows Molly into Oregon.

After years of absence at school in the North, Tom Rumford returns to his Southern home where he becomes engaged to Elvira, his father's ward. Major Patterson, Elvira's disappointed suitor, challenges Tom to a duel without cause, Tom, to v/hom all fighting is repulsive, can see no reason for fighting for the hand of a girl he has already won and refuses the challenge, thereby creating a reputa- tion for cowardice. His stern old father, mortally offended, drives him from home; Elvira returns his ring and the rest of the family spurn him — all but Lucy, Elvira's younger sister, who approves of his refusal to fight.
Insulted and scorned, Tom travels down the Mississippi and into the New Orleans gambling house of "General" Orlando Jackson, where he sees and shrinks from more fighting. At this point, "Captain" Blackie, a notorious fighter and killer, feared by all the other men in the place, infuriates Tom by his insults and Tom suddenly sees red. Heedless of results, he amazes all by the fury of his attack on Captain Blackie — and by its results — for Captain Blackie is ingloriously vanquished.
Following this encounter, Tom becomes "the notorious Colonel Blake," with a reputation as the most dangerous gambler on the river. Eventually fate brings him back to his old home town, where Elvira has become the unhappy wife of Major Patterson, now overseer of her father's estate, which is badly run down and heavily mortgaged. Dramatically reappearing incognito, Tom first awes and himibles the "brave" men of the family and then reveals his identity. Lucy, who has been waiting and hoping for Tom's return, is disappointed at finding him apparently so changed, but when he explains to her that he has never had but the one fight and that his reputation is all founded on that and the fearlessness that has now become second nature, everything ends happily.
Thrills and laughter alternate and abound in this unusual story, extremely well told, of the days when little or no offense called for a fight to defend one's "honor."

When his at- tempts to meet her are coldly ignored, he engages a suite of rooms directly below those she occupies at a prominent hotel, and bribes an old waiter to allow him to act as a floor-waiter in her suite. In his efforts as waiter, however, he fails miserably and ends by spilling a pitcher of cream over her.
Angered by his clumsiness, the Duchess determines to punish him, first mak- ing him a member of her personal staff, then proceeding to make his life miser- able by loading him with every unpleasant task from washing her dog to shining her shoes.
One evening, unable to sleep, she orders some champagne. Menjou brings a bottle and two glasses. The Duchess demands an explanation and Menjou dis- closes his love for her. Although the idea of falling in love with a servant is

unthinkable to the Duchess, Menjou's love-making finally sweeps away all bar- riers, and he takes her into his arms — just as the court members enter the room! The Duchess, though realizing she is in love with the waiter, is forced to repulse him out of mortified pride.
The humorous and exciting events that bring the story to a stirring climax and eventually lead to a happy ending, furnish delightful entertainment.
As the wealthy boulevardier, who masquerades as a waiter, Menjou is his own suave, sophisticated self. It is for him a perfect role and he plays it with the smoothness and the subtlety that stamps the finished actor.

Featuring Wallace Beery, Raymond Hatton and Mary Brian
Mary Brian gets Detective Riff Swonson and Shorty McGee, a burglar, to enlist in the army during the hectic days of 1917. And she does it by vamping each of them, unknown to the other, just in order to fill a quota of 25 men. For her father has promised her that if she enlists 25 men, she can go to France as a war worker.
Beery and Hatton, enemies in civil life, are buddies in the great A. E. F. in France, They are in a company commanded by Mary's brother. Each secretly believes himself engaged to Mary.
Of course it doesn't take very long for them to get thrown into the guard- house. Each appeals to Mary's brother on the ground that he's a prospective brother-in-law. The captain goes right to Mary and tells her to set them right. But meanwhile Hatton's old profession comes in handy. He picks the lock, they outwit the M. P.'s and take refuge in a French wine shop, presided over by a pretty barmaid. When they stagger out, they seek a convenient place to sleep — and find it is an army provision truck.
And the truck goes to the front!
Beery and Hatton don't look like "chow" to a bunch of hungry doughboys in the front-line trenches and the pair make their get-away, only to find that, instead of running to the rear, they are out in No Man's Land.
The ensuing scenes are a "wow." The air raid, inspection, and especially the scenes with the tank in No Man's Land, are among the funniest ever filmed. The picture starts with a chuckle and works into laughter that continues right through to the end. It is remarkable in that almost every scene of the picture contains a laugh.
As a pair of dumb doughboys, who get into all the trouble possible in the army, Beery and Hatton win first honors. If it hurts you to laugh, don't ex- pose yourself to the mercies of this picture. "Behind the Front" will chase the gloom off the face of the most confirmed pessimist.

without which the tribes would perish. The Chief gives the order and the entire tribe sets out on its semi-annual pilgrimage for — life.
Coming to a swirling glacial river which must be crossed, they blow up goat skins, tie them together and make rafts. The women folk, with tents, goats and a great conglomeration of belongings, climb aboard the rafts, each with two men furiously paddling at its bow.
Then the flocks and herds are dragged or driven into the water, until the current seizes them and they are swept off to swim or be sucked under. Soon the scene is one continuous procession of rafts and dots — each dot the head of some struggling or drowning animal. No more stirring sight has ever been seen by human eyes.
Through barren countries without trails, up heart-breaking mountains, the barefooted and poorly clad men, knee-deep in snow and ice, break trails for tlie older people and the very young.
This is not fiction, not the re-enacting of a historical event, but the actual breath-taking struggle itself.
In all the world, only three white people have ever seen this marvelous depic- tion of elemental life and mighty courage. Here are 50,000 natives and 500,000 cattle — struggling, fighting for their very existence.
For 48 days the fight continues, until finally reaching the top of the last mountain, the tribe see belov/ them the fertile plains covered with life-giving grass.
The most unusual picture ever made and one that holds the audience spell- bound to the very end.

Featuring Raymond Griffith, Montagu Love, Marion Nixon, Virginia Lee Corbin and Mack Swain
Raymond Griffith plays the role of the hero, a Confederate spy. His general tells him he must go west to Virginia City, the source of the Union's war finances, and divert the next wagon train of gold to the South.
His experiences en route to the western city are exciting and varied, as he becomes the central figure in holdups, Indian battles and love affairs. He falls in love with two sisters, a brunette and a blonde, each of whom also falls in love with him. It is a surprising triangle, but not difficult for the clever lover.
In obtaining the gold, Griffith is arrested for highway robbery. He reveals his identity as a member of the Confederate Army, expecting to be held merely as a prisoner of war. He is then informed that the war is over and that he is just a common robber. As he is about to make a quick exit from this world through hasty western justice, the girls save him.
The picture is full of hilarious situations. Griffith will make you laugh, chuckle, grin and roar. An original story, with a combination of Civil War and western backgrounds, in which Griffith's rip-roaring adventures as a Confederate spy seem to prove that Sherman was wrong about war.

Kittens meets Jerry Naughton, a fascinating chap, who is mixed up in a sensational divorce suit. Her flirtation with Jerry becomes so brazen and so constant at public places and in his apartment, that Mrs. Westcourt hears of it.

But Kittens privately reminds him of his friendship with the flashy Irma, and suggests that "we moderns" stand together against mother's Victorian ideas. And the father is compelled to agree.
Ethel Westcourt, once a brilliant actress, determines to meet this Jerry and fascinate him sufficiently to come between him and her daughter. She goes to a night club and is introduced to Jerry. Many meetings follow. She finds him as attractive as reputed, but possessed of quaUties of tenderness and understanding which are not a part of his reputation. Suddenly awakening, she finds herself in love with Jerry, and he with her!

For many days Jether lives in a Paradise of which Tisha is the Goddess Supreme.
Then comes the day when Jether's gold is gone, and he is conscious of Tisha's waning love. Driven to desperation he goes to the gaming tables and tries to re- deem his fortune with loaded dice. He is discovered and thrown from the gaming room.
That same night, in the midst of a great feast to Ishtar, Tisha orders the gates of the temple thrown open and the populace invited to drink and be merry.
As the pagan revelry, the like of which has not been known since the days of Babylon, is at its height, it is suddenly interrupted by the long-prophesied destruc- tion of the wicked city.

The Indians are known to be far from peacefully inclined. With such a setting, something is certain to happen!

A story that will stir you with its pathos, thrill you with its excitement and astonish you with the almost human acting of the "wonder dog of the movies," Rin-Tin-Tin.
The background of the picture is the sheep ranching country of the West. Rinty, the sheep herder's dog, is accused by a neighboring herder of killing lambs belonging to the latter's flock. Rinty's owner stoutly denies the accusation — but through circumstantial evidence a strong case is built up against the dog. In the face of the proof of his guilt that is finally submitted, even Rinty's owner is forced to acknowledge the dog's apparent guilt.
The law of the range provides but one penalty for the sheep killer — death. Rinty nearly pays dearly for his alleged crime — but through a series of swift and exciting events, involving the rescue of his master's baby boy, his innocence is proved and instead of being regarded as a "killer" Rinty deservedly becomes a hero and the pride of the ranchers.

In order to save her impoverished father, Theresa agrees to marry Steele, but while the wedding is in progress, and guarded by Aguilar, it is inter- rupted by the Yellow Seal, who seizes the bride and, although wounded, escapes with her.
Events follow quickly and stern justice overtakes both Aguilar and Steele, while the Yellow Seal and Theresa, saved from apparently inescapable death, find happiness in each other's love.

8172 Code SENI Braveheart DeMille
From the play "Strongheart"
Featuring Rod LaRocque, Robert Edeson, Arthur Housman, Tyrone Power
and Lillian Rich
This classic of the legitimate stage has been beautifully done for the screen in the romantic environment of the high Sierras. Braveheart (La Rocque), the son of the Indian chief (Tyrone Power), rescues Lillian after a fall from her horse far from her father's lodge. A budding attachment is nipped by her father (Edeson), who operates a salmon cannery, sending her East and to Europe.
Braveheart is selected by the tribe to be educated in the East in order to present their case for legal redress, since they have been driven away from their salmon fishing by the cannery people. At college, he becomes the star football hero and when Lillian returns to the college town, their attachment is renewed, but bitterly resented by her rascally brother (Hous- man), who sells the signals of the football team to their rivals and accuses Braveheart of the treachery. Expelled from college on suspicion, he is judged guilty by his home tribe, branded and cast out, but continues to fight through the courts for the rights of his tribe and finally wins their case before the Supreme Court after an impassioned appeal.

Coincident with the verdict, a treacherous section of the tribe nearly undoes the good work by kidnapping Edeson and his daughter. Troops arc ordered to the reservation and a bloody fight is only averted by Brave- heart's quick resourcefulness in intercepting the cavalry and later rescuing Edeson and his daughter from the Indians. Braveheart returns to his tribe as a hero, vindicated by the confession of Lillian's brother, and the play ends in the only way it could.

8173 Code SENO The Yankee Clipper DeMillc
Featuring William Boyd, Elinor Faire, John Miljan, Walter Long
and Junior Coghlan
An epic of 1850, graphically portraying an incident in the friendly rivalry between England and the United States for the maritime supremacy of the seas and control of the important Chinese tea trade.
The captains of the rival sailing ships, "Lord of the Isles," and "Yankee Clipper," meet in a Chinese port and, each with a cargo of tea, set sail simul- taneously to race to Boston. By a strange chance, Elinor, daughter of the English skipper, and Miljan, her fiance, are on the American ship when the starting signal is given and are obliged to sail with the vessel. On the way, as well as before leaving China, the despicable character of Miljan becomes more and more apparent, as does the love of Boyd, the Yankee captain, for Elinor.
The rival vessels become separated and the "Lord of the Isles" escapes a fierce typhoon which nearly wrecks the "Yankee Clipper." The storm scenes are terrific and will hold any audience spellbound. During the storm, the main water tank springs a leak, losing most of its contents. As a result, the men are put on short rations of water and after a few days mutiny de- velops, which is quelled by the ship's officers with great difficulty. Miljan is caught after stealing some of the precious supply of water and is sum- marily dealt with by the crew.
Carrying all possible sail, even to the crew's blankets, the "Yankee Clipper" sights, then overtakes, and finally passes the other ship just as they enter Boston Harbor, thus winning the race and exclusive right to the tea trade. But the Yankee captain won still more, for Elinor agreed to accompany him on future voyages.

8175 Code SENAR The Fighting Eagle DeMille
Featuring Rod LaRocque, Sam DeGrasse and Phyllis Haver
Etienne Gerard (Rod LaRocque), grandson of the keeper of an inn on the Spanish border, is enlisted in Napoleon's army as his reward for aiding the Countess De Launay (Phyllis Haver), a secret service agent, to escape Talleyrand (De Grasse) and reach the Emperor safely with papers giving France cause to declare war against Spain. Later, as Captain Gerard, of the Fighting Eagles, he arouses the enmity of the other officers by boasting of his friendship with Napoleon.
Suddenly Countess De Launay appears and takes him on a secret mis- sion as her lackey, to steal treasonable papers from Talleyrand. They are surprised before they can escape with the papers and the proud Gerard is sent back to Napoleon in a chest, disgraced. The Countess slips the papers in the chest, but when it is opened in front of the Emporer, Gerard is unable to find the hidden papers. He is returned to his regiment in disgrace and sentenced to be shot for being absent without leave.
How he recovers the papers and vindicates himself, even by kidnapping the Emperor, and receives his imperial congratulations and promotion before his chagrined fellow officers, must be seen to be fully appreciated.
Romance, intrigue and suspense are combined in this thrilling story of one of the outstanding eras in history. Recommended for any audience. 1986 feet— on 5 reels Rental $5.00

Nick, her fiance, is not included but manages to get aboard, where he is imprisoned under the owner's orders.
