"Omar the Tentmaker,'k proves that Orientals are human, too, and tells a story with a univer sal appeal. Cairns & Devoll, one very tall one very : short dressed In Kton , suits, silk hats, etc., pre sent an. offering consisting of Uongs, dances and comedy that is so cleverly constructed as to produce the maximum of enter tainment for they can sing and dance to heat the band and leave the audience v'ishing for more and comedy; runs riot through their offering to such aifL extent, that they, are encored repeatedly. At the Bligh today. "Hearts Aflame," announced as one of the biggest spectacular photoplays of recent years, is now, at the Oregon for a limited engagement j It Is Reginald Bac ker's latest production, released by; Metro, and it adds- cqnsider ahly to the fame or this direct or of big pictures. : 1 1 1 . 1 1 1 1 p I THEATER. A . I : Z a PROBATION WIFE" WITH One - thing in particular ha attracted widespread attention In connection with the picture,' and that is a vivid and exciting for est fire, which is said to surpass anything of .the kind ever ; before presented in motion pictures. In order to reproduce it for j screen purposes, a tract of timber' was ignited and 20 cameras photo graphed it from many angles. It is through this raging blare that Anna Q. Nilsson runs a , locomo tive; and in staging this -realis tic episode the celebrated screen actress was painfully burned Her injuries kept her confined in a hospital for several weeks The forest fire is one of sev eral big scenes in the picture, Thera is, in addition, the blow ing up of a dani done to release thousands of logs which lay stranded and imprisoned. An other, big scene is the dynamit ing of a hillside, necessary , to prevent the spread of the forest fire. v In addition to these thrills, there is a .story of unusual in terest. It concerns a young man who leaves his millionaire father's home and goes to Mich igan woods in order to "make good. There he meets an ag gressive MisB, who singlehanded, has defeated the aims of the neighboring lumbermen, intent on depriving her of her valuable timber tract. 'A romance begins between them; and circumstances send them together through the flaming forest in the cab of an old locomotive. 1 . , In the cast are Frank Keenan, who returns to the Screen after a period j of retirement; . Anna Q. Nilsson, the brave Miss of the Michigan woods; Craig Ward,' as the son of a wealthy father who leaves his home ' to redeem him self. Others are Richard lleed-f rick, Russell Simpson, Richard Tucker, Stanton Heck, Martha Mattox, Ralph Cloninger, Lee Shumway and Irene Hunt. '.'Hearts Aflame" was produced for Louis B. Mayer. It was ad apted by J.G. Hawks and L. G. Higby from Harold Titus' novel, "Timber." The photography: Is the work of Percy Hilburn. Walter Mayo was assistant dl lector. Jordan and Morris, - comedy acrobats,, do an act entitled "Thrills knd Spills' They have quite a few thrills in the act; We failed to see any spils. They work ifast and the act is well put together. Aside from these features, the act exhibits a splen cjd routine of gymnastic , that will unquestionably please. ' AtA the Bligh Sunday. Mark Twain's "The Prince and The Pauper" at the Grand today only, presents, for the first time in America,' a strikingly talented boy actor, Tibi Lubin, who plays the principal roles of a 1 beggar lard and a Prince, of Wales. Hs performance leaves nothing to be desired and evokes, comment on child, actors in general, i . The youthful player has , i al ways been an interesting figure on the stage. ; Since the comfng of motion pictures he has stepped more fully: Into his own.' .The GO! JUL ' r -' p acrcn has developed juvenile talent .more than the latter-day psfafe 1 ever could, with its chil dren's societies and municipal strictures, not to mention- the difficulty experienced by stage producers in finding 'children Mth the ability to learn lines such as a playwright youfd like to create. Hence the parts writ ten for children are necessarily short and simple. Not since Mar garet Anglin essayed "The Awak ening of Helena Richie," has a drama centered on the acting of a child and a boy of seven, Ray mond ' Hackett, shared equally with the star. Yet how frequently are photo plays based on the Influence of a child in solving a domestic .problem; in acting as a foil for the- comedian; in exploiting as a 'star the child himself, such as Wesley Barry and Jackie Coogan. Miriam Battista in "Humor esque" achieved importance such as'"-never is the lot of the, stage child, while Frankie Lee, Peaches Jackson and Mary Jane Irving are better known than a dozen stage successes could have made them. So it is with Joseph Depew, tged seven, and Helen Rowland, a mite of 3, who have recently appeared in Kate Douglas Wig gin's "Timothy's Quest," not. for getting a girl of Italian parent age, Dorothy Glraci, whose act ing in George Beban's "The Sign of the Rose" is little short 'of, marvelous. These children, with many oth ers, are players of mature tech nique ana are not equanea oy any of their years on the stage. As much as anything it Is the naturalism of studio acting that has made little artists of them. That, as well as ' not having to commit a part to memory, but to'l act it instead. Every child ! loves to pretend and thei chil dren of the screen are encour aged and trained to pretend to their hearts content.- This brings us back to Tibi Lubin. , .( , His gifts- are better appreciat ed when seen. Enough now to say that his sense of character ranks him wlthithe stars, for he plays two roles, remember, of widely different types and makes each as distinct as if two boys were playing the parts of prince and pauper rather than one. Tibi Lubin is a youngster ' of great gifts. The Tysons, give an entirejv different performance from the usual run of song and dance art ists; their act. is staged . with care as to details that make it unique in .. Vaudeville and .they use all specially written .musical numbers for their, songs" and dances. . Youth, good looks, peri sonality ..and beautiful , costumes make this act more than a pleas ing one. , At the Bligh today. f f T T f r r T Men's Mahogany ,A semi-dress shoe of very fine calf leather df AO stock; regular S7. 50 value.
