Blanche Sweet Here Tomorrow and
Monday.


Monday.
Blanche Sweet, one of America S
foremost photodramatic stars, will he
seen at the Alta theater tomorrow and
Monday in the Jesse L. Lasky produc-
ton of THE Blacklist" the thrilling
drama of soial conditions written es-
pecially for her by two of the coun-
try's most famous playwrights Mari
on Fairfax and VIM. c. De Mile. Ii
is a Paramount Picture.
The beautiful Blanche Sweet, since
she has been with the Lasky company,
has been seen in many unusual roles,
but as Vera Maroff, the school teach
er in a small mining town. she is said
to portray a role entirely different
from anything in which she has here
tofore appeared.
THE Blacklist is daring indiet-
ment of the working conditions Of big
corporations as they exist in many
states Vera is the daughter of a mine
work who is the head Of Russian an
archists, contemplating the overthrow
of the corporation. How the little
school teacher, after her people have
been shot down by the mine guards
for refusing to work under the terri
BILE conditions of the Blacklist. :"
changes the entire policy of the great
corporation and brings the president
to her feet, must, naturally be seen
to be enjoyed. This photodrama is
said to deliver lesson to the working
classes in a far more graphic and vi
yid manner than could be told from
the pulpit or stage
Supporting Miss Sweet is a cast of
unusual excellence, headed by Charles
Clary, the distinguished American ac-
tor. who recently appeared prominent
in the support Of Fannie Ward in the
Jesse l. Lasky production of Ten
nessee's Pardner" and who is one OF
the most popular actors now appear
ing on the screen.
Horace b. carpenter. the popular
character actor of the Lasky com
pany. who recently achieved such
success as the disreputable husband
in the Golden Chance" is also seen
prominent in the support of Miss
Sweet.
others in the cast are Ernest joy,
VIM. Elmer. Lucian Littlefield, Jane
Wolf and other members of the Las
ky all-star stock company.
The production is of the usual ex-
cellent ,Lasky order, the exterior
scenes being taken in a well known
mining town which was rented for
three entire days by the Lasky COM
pany.
