The nicturesnue grandeur of Alpine
surroundings has been used as a back
ground for Marguerite Clarke's latest
film appearance, "Out ot the Units,
the Famous Players-Paramount pic
ture which is the attraction at the
Arcade theatre tonight and tomor
row night. "Out of the Drifts" is a
tale of the eternal snows, of avalanch
es, dizzy heights and yawning chasms,
ranging from the pastoral beautieB 01
Alpine shepherd life to the grim fight
for mere existence against the smash
ing, hurricane-driven snows. But the
battle against the elements is not thu
only one in which the diminutive star
is pitted against a powerful advers
ary. She is a simple, unsophisticated
little shepherdess whose very inno
cence and beauty arouse in a dissolute
visitor at the village which is her
home the lowest imnluses of his na
ture. But the very innocence which
lad hor into the trap proves her salva
tion, for it in turn awakens a sense of
shame and repentance in the man who
turns over a new leaf and thoroughly
changes his mode of life.
There is a terrific struggle in the
cabin when Rudolph battles his way
through the drifts and snatches Elise
from the arms of the half-crazed Reg
gie. But the innocence of the little
irirl and the loval devotion of her
mountain lover awaken the better side
of the stranger's nature and live re
turns to iLondon a thoroughly chas
tened man. He devotes himself to
charity and it is in this work that Ru
dolph finds him engrossed when, af
ter realizing that Elise is still in love
with Reggie, he goes in search of him
to bring him back to the girl for
whom he has decided to make the
greatest sacrifice in his power.
The second annual horse show at
Pomeroy, Wash., has been set for May
