H. McKean, Manager, Wasco, Oregon DEALERS IN Moro Theater ALWAYS AT YOUR SERVICE PRINTER’S INK Home for Sale Jack Holt, Dorothy Revier and Pat Hannon make a fine combina tion in “The Warning,” which comes to Moro Saturday. The picture is a detective drama in the locale of Hong Kong, China. It offers unlimited op portunity for action, suspense and thrills. The outstanding features are : a good fight between Holt and I Harmon in the cellar of the “House of a Thousand Delight«.” Both actors warm up to the action and give a good account of themselves. This is followed by a smashing of doors to enter the room where Fellows has taken the charming heroine. This sequence requires quick action and clever strategy on the part of Holt, Revier and George Kuwa. The whole plot leads up to a thrilling climax which brings the audience to its feet in the attack in the “Chamber of the Great Stairs,” and the explosion in the temple. Thruout the film there is a love interest which is well sustained. Miss Revier portrays the girl detective in a convincing manner and succeeds in getting herself in some tight situa tion« from which »he is extricated by Holt The photographic atmosphère of Ihe Chinese city and the human in terest toueb«» introduced for color show skill on the part of the direct or. It is conservative to say that in “The Warning.” George B. Seitz ha« turned out a masterpiece which will long be remembered.

Over many of the established routes the percentage of mishaps has been lees than that shown by the rail roads.
