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 County 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 in “ White Fang ” ” r Saturday, September 12 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. “The Saddle Hawk” , Saturday, September 19 Hoot Gibson in “The Saddle Hawk” 1« a corking, «mashing story with a big dramatic climax, punchy scenes, stirring action and strong romance, don’t miss this epic of the cattle country when the cattle man was king. “ HU Majesty, The American ” Sunday Afternoon, September 20 For those who say that there is* nothing new under the sun, Douglas Fairbanks’ new picture, “His Majesty, the American, will bjp a tonic.
