State “Dugan of the Bad Lands,” with Bill Cody. Showing today only. By RALPH MASON Scenic Western at McDonald Characterized by unusually beau tiful scenery, incredibly fast horse back riding, and unpolished acting and dialogue, Zane Grey’s “Riders of the Purple Sage,” presents' George O'Brien and Marguerite Churchill in a wholesome western depicting Arizona as it was in 1871. The magnetic O’Brien as the outlaw Lassiter, defends “Jane” (Marguerite Churchill) from the depredations of a band of terror ists who attempt to steal her herd of cattle. The stopping of this mighty stampeding band falls to O'Brien who does the seemingly impossible feat single handed in one of the most thrilling scenes of the picture. Lassiter is materially aided by his horse which permits him to leap over narrow chasms, through waterfalls and down mountain sides. Noah Beery as Judge Dyer, crooked leader of the outlaws, plays true to form in his villain ous role. The spirit of adventure is again reflected in Ronald Colman’s lat est picture, “The Unholy Garden,” which comes to the McDonald theatre on Sunday and Monday. ltonald Column starring in “Un holy Garden,” coming to the Mc Donald Sunday and Monday.
