“When Romance Rides," founded
ipon Zane Grey’s most popular
“Wildfire,” is coming to the
"mly theater Sunday and Monday*.
The picture is a thriller inter-
ipersed with lively comedy. The
reat horse race alone.will give
| pec tutors their money’s worth, but
ot satisfied with that, Producer
[ampton staged for the film one of
ie most desperate struggles be-
tween a girl and a man ever filmed.
A half-witted man, Joel Creech,
links Lucy Bostil has injured him
nd kidnaps her. To feed his re-
enge, he ties her to the back of a
orse and sends the horse straight
>r a precipice. He himself is
lught by a dangling rope and
dragged to his death and the girl
is rescued by Carl Gantvoort in the
role of Lin Slone, a rancher.
Mr. Hampton’s cast contains
some of the most famous names
in the film world. Claire Adams,
Carl Gantvoort and Jean Hersholt
are featured. Others in the cast
are, Frank Haynes, Tod Sloan, the
jockey, little Mary Jane Irvhig.
Harry L. Van Meter, Charles Ar-
ling. Babe London and Walter Per-
kins.
I like The Advance because it Is the
only advertising medium In the elty
where you get your money’s worth.—

“Afraid To Fight” With
Frank Mayo At Rialto
What’s a coward? If a man re-
fuses to fight, having reasons of his
own, is he to be branded at once
as a timid one? There's a strong
flavor of human psychology in
“Afraid to Fight,” the Universal
photoplay in which Frank Mayo
will be seen at the Rialto theater
on Wednesday and Thursday. Lil-
lian Rich provides the feminine
half of the love interest, and Wil-
ljam Worthington directed a.strong
cast in the filming of Leet Ronick
Brown’s original story.
George I„ong. candidate for. Labor
Commissioner, advocates the 8-
liour day and a minmum wage for

TIIIHD EPISODE OF TIMBER
QUEEN AT FOLLY.
The Folly theater will show
“Guilty as Charged," episode 3 of
Ruth Roland’s new spine-tingling,
heart-glowing Pathe serial. “The
Timber Queen,” on Saturday. The
Timber Trust interests, seeking to
keep Don and Ruth apart, because
Ruth’s vast timberlands will fall
Into their hands if she is not mar-
ried by a certain date, charge Don
with murder and hastily try him
before a lumbermen’s jury. Ruth
with only the aid of her horse ami
a dog seeks to prove Don innocent,
but just as success is within her
grasp, she has an accident. Don
faces a firing squad. v

George Mel ford's Paramount pic-
ture production of “The Great Im-
personation” in W’hlch\ James Kirk-
wood is the featured player, and
which is coming to the Majestio
next Wednesday, is great. The
scenes of the picture are laid in
England and Africa and it has a
pre-war political pk»t and an ap-
pealing love story for its theme.
Ann Forrest is a, charming heroine
and the support generally is excel-
lent.

When you see these dresses you’ll wonder
why we’re slashing them to $9.85 for a
34-hour cleanup because they’re just the
thing for fall wear. The only reason we
can cut them to this price is that they’re
a close-out of a
manu facturer’s
line and although
they did sell as
high as $25, we
give you the ben-
efit of a lucky
buy and our need
for room.
