been selected as the scene for the
thrilling tWo-part Mustang-We stern

Complete destruction of house by
the explosion Of bomb is one of the
most realistic scenes Of IT'S kind that

at The TheatoTium. This is the pre-

the realization of the possible in case
of the United States being suddenly
thrown into the vortex Of war. The
foarlessness OF Juanita Hansen, who
takes the part Of the heroine in this
stirring film, has won her nation
wide reputation, but in the staging of
the explosion scene she was a near
victim to oath. After a series of har-
rowing experiences she succeeded in

Street car service between FL Paso

American army officers are puzzled

Offers Strong
Photo Drama.

There is a wealth OF gripping heart
interest in Sealed Lips" the Equit-
able's great fve-part photo drama,
which is coming to the Coliseum thea
ter on Monday, June 10. While Viii
liam Courtenay is the star of the
piece, the principals are not to be
overlooked, as they shine by their
own lustre. Dean Maitland the i'm
pulsive, reckless and somewhat selfish
ministerial student, who suffers
mental tortures, which later cause his
death, has realistic exponent in Ar
thur Ashley, and weak and suffering
Alma Lee, as portrayed by Mary
Charleson, is a character which will
appeal to all those who realize that
human nature is prone TO err, but can
only bear about so much in the way
of suffering of the mind. This visuali-
cation Of the story of Dean Maitland
is sure TO attract widespread atten-
ton. 1t is an Ince production, and
that alone is sufficient to insure its
perfection from a directorial point Of
