GEORGE O’BRIEN STARS
¡N NEW TYPE PICTURE.
Blazing a path as a pioneer of a
new type action picture, George
O'Brien’s new starring picture, "The
Cowboy Millionaire" shews at the
Oasis theatre Friday and Saturday.
Action ranges over six thousand
miles from city spires to Arizona’s
deserts. Audiences are promised an
engrossing lot of thrills.
This Fox Film release has been
acclaimed wherever seen. It es-
chews the stereotyped formula of the
hardened cowhoy plus fragile girl
fluttering around mortgaged home-
steads.
In "The Cowboy Millionaire" the
settings denote wealth, and bespeak
refinement and culture. The wo-
men wear clothes befitting wealthy
sneiety. No cowboy sitots up the
duat of the village street. No chases
predominate the picture, yet this
fast-moving film is packed to the
hilt with action.
Producer Sol Lesser spared no
| money to give this picture ■ fitting
| frame.
George O'Brien moves with ease
I from the hard west to society's
drawing rooms.

Some photographers spoil the pic
ture by making it look too mush like
yourself. How about the picture of

To be remembered, forget your-
self
Beware of a still dog, still water
or a still woman.
