Patrons of the Scenic, were some what disappointed last evening with the film entitled "Jerusalem," but their disappointment was not equal to that of Manager Gardinler. Mr. Gardinler had been led to believe by the film makers that he had reeclved something far aobve the average and that ' he was giving his patrons a set of pictures which would result in a real treat for them. Instead, the pictures were Just ordinary. Jerusalem could not be considered rank, but It was not up to the high expectations which Jlhe makers had established for It through their advertising. Theyredeemlng fea ture of the program was the beautiful tlon of the nursery tale, "Beau ty and the Beast." This was a truly .eat film and one which should have been announced as the feature bill, This film Is colored throughout and has, many transformation scenes. In fact tt Is us beautiful a production as has been shown In this city. The comic tn, "Hurry, Please," is one which furnishes enough amusement for two shows and at the same time makes the audience wonder how It Is done. When you see It this evening try and figure out how "the actors were made Jo "Hurry up." Mr. Cecil Sum mers will furnish a monologue turn this evening. There Is enough for the money even if the spectators do not value the Jerusalem a all. ' The Pastime. , 'The broken macnlfce which prevent ed the Pastime from giving a perform ance last evening, has been replaced with a new one and this evening the show will continue as of old.- The pro gram will be the same as advertised for last evening. . The feature bill is "Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots." This is a handsomely colored film and one which Is historically correct. The court room scene and the execution scene are both graphlcly shown, . The escape of the beautiful queen and later the meeting with her cousin, Queen Elizabeth, two historical Incidents are both shown. There are other good numbers, but this is without doubt the best historical film seen In La Grande for some time. NO OXE HESITATES OVER, OUR CAXDY.
