speaking stage, but a true characterisa
tion of life in the small town where
everything and everybody moves by
rule and rote, and gossiping tongues
swing from the center. What a con
trast to the existence led by big city
cliff dwellers, who are seemingly heart
less. Godless, Sodomites!

Horton, the girl who left home. Miss
Brady Is supported by a cast of screen
notables. Do not miss seeing this photo-

CIRCLE In writing the novel "When
Bearcat Went Dry," at the Circle
today and tomorrow, Charles Neville
Buck did not realise that he was cre
ating a story which lent itself to pic
turlzatlon for the entertainment of the
millions of patrons of moving picture
theatres.
The story of "When Bearcat Went
Iry" has an appeal for every red-
blooded American. Its scenes are laid in
the Kentucky Cumberlands, where the
elements of life are rugged and where
majesty and meagreness endure side
by side. i
"Bearcat" la the nickname given to
the young boy who la the hero of the
picture. He returns from his exile
whither he has been driven by revenue
officers who are seeking out Illicit stills.
As the boy looks down from the moun
tainside he sees Blossom, the girl he
loves, in another man's arms. From that
day on there to war to the knife be
tween Bearcat and Henderson. Yet
when the time comes for his revenge,
the boy tries to save bis enemy's life,
in one of the most thrlAing scenes ever
depleted on the screen.
Henderson is dying from wounds he
received in a fight where Bearcat, too,
Is terribly wounded in trying to save
his life. As the boy bends over to hear
what he thinks are the last words of
the man that stole the affections of. the
girl he loves and hears him say. "I'm
dying." Bearcat says. "I hope ter God
yer air. but afore ye dies ye're agoin'
ter be married. Maybe I'm dying, too
ADDED ATTRACTION

comedy successes
Fatty the Masher
inent in the theatrical world are
passengers on the Imperator of the
Cunard line, en route to England. Among
these were William A. Brady, who has
contracts to produce plays in London
and New York, and Mary Nash, who
is to appear in London. Maggie Teyte,
the opera singer, sailed td"Xulflll London
engagements. There were'also Maxim
Paths and Adolph Zukor of the film
world.
Zukor, who is president of the Famous
Players-Lasky corporation, left to open
In London, on April 1, a huge studio
which will make the first British made
photoplay for American distribution,
Marie Corelll's "Sorrows of Satan."
These British studios will make pictures
of English life, to be shown In the the
atres of the United States, which will
give Americans, through the films, the
same knowledge of England that the
American films shown here give con
cerning America.
"The moving picture is the only me
dium that can bring about a better un
derstanding between the American and
English people," said Zukor.
"It now' seems possible, by this inter
change of ideas through the photoplay,
to cause the two great divisions of the
Anglo-Saxon race to think as one. I
wish to do my part toward bringing the
people of the world closer together, and
it is to bring England closer to the
United States that the British produc
tions are to be made."
I don't know but I alms ter last
long enough ter stand up with ye first"
The terrible mistake was righted in
the end and Bearcat and Blossom ful
filled the prophesy made on the moun
tainside that summer evening: "When
I've done something worth doin" an'
when ye're a leetle bit older yourself.
Blossom, you're agoln ter marry me,
an' we're goln' ter dwell thar together."
STAR Clara Kimball Young in "The
Eyes of Youth," is booked for show
ing at the Star on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, following the final appear
ance of Naslmova In "Revelation" to
day. Thursday and Friday of this
week Douglas Fairbanks in "When the
Clouds Roll By," his newest feature,
will be the special attraction.
SUNSET Charles Ray, in "The Egg
Crate Wallop." Is. the big show at
the Sunset theatre until Tuesday mid
night. With the personality of Charles Ray
injected Into a play like 'The Egg Crate
Wallop," it gives the motion picture
loving public something they like. Ray
just simply walks away with the hon
ors In this picture.
With a plot starting In a small coun
try town where he is the assistant ex
press agent got a girl and everything
it looks good. Then the villain comes
forth, and it looks better. Then the ex
press safe is robbed and Ray suspected
so the girl turns him down. Now It
looks fine.
Then everyone sits back In their seats
and knows exactly how it is coming out.
but that la where they get fooled, be
cause the climax and ending of this one
has a kick in it that shakes even the
most blase and bored fan. It is where
the "Egg Crate Wallop" shows up with
a punch.

was bound for a number of years to the

turn to feed, clothe, board and educate
her.
"Her charities were endless. She dld

the talk of her marvelous singing had
reached him. Petersen's young wle ex- .
pressed sorrow that her poor husband -should

The case happened to reach Jenny's ears .
and she visited the couple one Sunday
and sang to the patient. The enrap

her 'The Angel."
