A piay worth while. ARCADE . . . . A.fcJ.. In U. FRANK KEEN AN AND ENID MARKEY IN PLEASING PIC TURE AT ARCADE TO MORROW (Reviewed by Louis Reeves Harrison in Moving Picture World.) "Jim Grimsby's Boy" is a genuine photodrama, with two very strong characterizations. It is the Triangle picture at the Arcade Thursday only. In the power and consistency of the two leading roleB, that of Jim Giims by, impersonated by Frank Kcenan, and the tomboy girl, "Bill," interpret ed by Enid M 11 key, lies the deep hu man interest of the story. Where there is a strong foundation of char acter, as in this case, the incidents become of minor import-the story could be developed in a thousand dif ferent ways. The author, however, has chosen an, entertaining sructure, and the treatment is beyond adverse criticism it i that of Reginald Barker aider the supervision of Thomas H. I-nce. Taken altogether, the story has a sincerity which makes itself felt, ani a charm which most pictures lack. Keenati's interpretation of a dys peptic old mountaineer, whose view nnint i, nrimii iv and hrutalitv mas culine, rings true to the point of arousing deep sympathy for his wom en folk. His extremely narrow am btion is to have a son, one that he can raise to be aa raw and uncouth as himself, the mock hero of a provincial. His wife bears him a girl babe and dies soon after, completely crushed by the harsh and overpowering masculin ity of her husband. He seems to be incapable of noble sentiment when the girl grows up. He dresses her as a boy, cals her "Bill," lets her run wild on the mountains without education, yet he is delightfully inconsistent in his insistence that she shall cook, clean house and serve him as he would exact from any woman. He merely Indulges a lot cf native brutality ai ; 1 nvar 90(1 first 1 HIC iciinv, " - ... I day customers to the new kitchen.

To us summer means so much, not only be cause it enables us to indulge our propensities for surf bathing; picnicking, camping, motor trips, etc., but also for the reason that Mother Earth now brings forth her increase. For 1917 the increase so far as the fruit crop is concerned promises to be ail abund ant one. While "Beans and Bacon" may be staple necessities, they do not appeal to .the taste as does luscious ripe fruit and new fresh vegetables. Um mission during these lovely summer months is to sup ply you with the latter. Our plans for this are all arranged. Don't disappoint us on your orders- we'll not disappoint you on the goods.
