 When you have dissipated this for tune, go to my hunting lodge in Mon- tana, break down the cabin door and there you will find a solution of your trouble" Thus wrote the father, and his prophetic Judgment proved acur- pate quickly, in fast living, the fortune left to him. He went then to his fathers hunting lodge and found there awaiting him-a hangman's moose dangling from the ceiling. Around this is woven an intensely interesting story told in the Kleine photodrama The Scarlet Road. There are many other situations fully as dramatic as the above in The Scarlet Road A very romantic tale Is blended with the more stirring sit,Iations and adds in- terest to the picture in it's entirety Malcolm Duncan. formerly supportine Harrison Grey Fiske. is with Anna O Nilsson and Della Connor, featured in The Scarlet Road
