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

GOOD OLD SUMMER TIME
Once more it's with us, not in exactly overwhelming
measure, but enough to once more gladden our old
hearts. 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.
