Mae Marsh in "Nobody's Kid,"
will ba the attractioq at the Grand
Wednesday and Thursday.
A motion picture' that will
strike home to many young Am
erican married couples, is ''Dan
gerous Curve Ahead!" a Goldwyn
feature; and written by Rupert
Hughes, which comes to the Ore
gon theater for three days, com
mencing today. Miss Helene
Chadwick, called the "most pho
tographed girl in America," has
the principal role.
The btory of the play concerns
the early married life of a small
town girl who was the belle of
her community before her mar
riage to an easy going domesi
cally inclined husband. Inward
ly chafing under the restraints
imposed by the cares of her home,
and the rearing of her two chil
dren, She seizes the first oppor
tunity jto taste again of the but
terfly , Jife in society," while her
husband is away on business.
"Howj she avoids the Dangerous
Curve, and s brought to her
senses !by the illness of her little
child, eagerly resuming the yoke
of domesticity, is dramatically
portrayed.
The jpictnre Is well acted and
splendidly photographed, several
innovations being resorted to that
alone lift the film from the com
monplace. Miss Chadwick does
the bejst work of her career in
the picture, and she is ably sup
ported by Richard Dix, "Lefty"

"Th Last Door," Eugene O'
Brien' latest picture which is to
be presented at the Oregon thea
ter Fifiday. and Saturday, is a
rapid-fire photoplay of romance
and thrills that will appeal to all
classes. It is entirely different
from anything the star has pre
viously! been seen In and gives
him the opportunity to do some
of the jiest acting of his career.
Eugene O'Brien plays the role
of the j "Magnet," a gentlemanly
criminal who enters into his es
capades only because of an Irre
sistabie desire for adventure. He
loves tie thrill of outwitting the
detectives who are always on his
trail but unable to catch him. At
a fashionable affair he passes
himself off as a wealtny explorer
who has recently returned from
South Africa. In reality he is af
ter a priceless pewel which he
knows is in the possession of the
host and his exploits in that di
rection leads hiin through many
exciting adventures.
"As I predicted unlimited suc
cess for my recent production,
"Lying Lips," so do I predict a
still greater, more widely influ
encing success for my latest ef
fort, "Mother O'MIne." It is a
pantomimic rhapsody of the very
greatest love in all the world
the love of a mother for her son.
You will cry a bit, perhaps, but
through the glistening tears will
shine a rainbow of joy and good
phpftr. for sis a mnther'n hoar)
radiates the blessings of faith ani
undying devotion, so does my pra
duction, "Mother O'Mine," radi
ate that understanding and sim
ple humanness which brings the
world together, as one, for one
trodding onward and onward with
everlasting contentment waiting,
and beckoning, at the end."

Regardless of how firmly fixed
in a man's makeup may be an
inherent desire to be scrupulous
ly honest, there is hardly a man
who, if it becomes necessary in
order that those dear to him be
rescued from starvation, would
not set out to procure food in
spite of every law.
This situation is one of the big
incidents that go to make up a
screen story known as "The
Mother Heart," in which Shirley
Mason, petite star, will be seen
at the Oregon theater beginning
next Wednesday and Thursday.
