Picture Show News,
For The Current Week
Elaborate sets, eloquent of lux
ury; sets indicative of poverty;
stunning gowns; beautiful women;
fine acting by star and by supporting
east. Such are the principal factors
that go to make a great motion pic
ture of'“Fifth Avenue Models," Uni
versal-Jewel starring Mary Philbin.
Other factors are fine photography,
good direction and many intimately
human touches, and of course, a
good logical story. The little star in
this picture demonstrates that she
can be far from dehtyre if the occa
sion demands it.
“Fifth Avenue
Models” is the screen version of “The
Best in Life," a best seller written
by Muriel Hine, and tells the dra
matic love story of a girl supporting
herself and father by working as a
seamstress in the shop of a fashion
able modiste. The love interest is be
tween the girl and a young man of
wealth who sees her at a style show
where she is a mannequin.

It is a rapid fire story of the West and was

is the second place it has been shown in the state and from here
it will be taken to the eastern part of the United States.
“-Three Miles Out ”
Thursday, September 10
“Three Miles Out” is a thrilling sort of adventure with much of
that important element, suspense, and sufficient comedy. It has,
as is obvious from its title, to do with bootlegging. But it has
more to do with Miss Kennedy hanging on ropes, feet uj»on

suit of her by Bull Jorgen unshaven and ferocious.
“ Frivolous Sal ”
Friday, September 11
Probably many people will never be fortunate enough to visit
Rainier National Park in Washington and marvel at the scenic
beauties there; or to go through the picturesque mining country
of the Couer d’Alenes in Idaho and see men gouging precious
metal from the heart of the earth. But those who have never
seen this with their own eyes may enjoy’ it just the same in
watching J. K. McDonald’s First National Picture, “Frivolous
Sal,” which will be at Moro theatre during Sherman Gounty
Fair week. Mount Rainier, a gigantic peak mantled with per
petual snow, rears its head above the little mining village where
the action of the story takes place.

Strongheart the John Barrymore of Dog Actors—a fourfooted
Edwin Booth that registers joy, grief, fury that gives in “White
Fang”this thundering classic of the Alaskan snows the most A-
mazing exhibition of canine histrionism, the most stunning reve
lation of dog psychology ever shown on the screen. A smashing
story from the now silent pen of Jack London laid amid the ice
and snow and death dealing cold of the arctic regions, a frozen
hell of desolation and mockery with love warming the souls of
the stalwart. Produced by Laurence Trimble and Jane Murfin,
and directed by Laurence Trimble.
