AT THE CASTLE

The story of The Divorce" the
lNe-reel picture shown at the Castle
theater today, can be classed in the
l.-ht comedy division, but toward
rbe climax il jumps the fence into
tHe field OF melOdrama. This occurs
IN a situation where the heroine
and hero, both practicine deception,
are pursued by a sheriff and his
posse. who mistake the man for a
stage rObber. The events that lead
MP to this situation are very anus
ing and the action speedy enough TO
keep the -ectator thoroughly en-
tertained. dary Anderson is the
star and is seen 10 good advantage
as a young woman, who travelling
through the city of Reno, that IA
nous place of easy freedom,
breathes so much of the atmosphere
that it gets under her skin and she
decides TO start divorce proceedings
against a nonresident husband. The
natural settings that have been cho-
sen for the backgrounds for the
numerous scenes and the typical
western vistas with bands of horse
men in the distance are extremely
attractive.
The picture to be shown at the
Castle theater on Monday and Tues
day entitled 1T May Be Your
Daughter" carries with it a power
ful moral lesson that every parent
should know Told in graphic pic
lures and impersonated by sincere
and earnest performers, the story is
one that should have a wide appeal
10 the intelligent public. As indi-
Gated by the title, the subject is
one that must necessarily be skill
fully handled in order to cause no
offense and this has been done in a
way that stamps the production an
artistic achievement The cast is
headed by Edith Thornton and in
Cludes Hugh Thompson, Dorothy
Gwynne. Harold West and Peggy
Sweeney.

NAY ROBSON COMING.

Augas.us Pitou offers May Rob
son in her latest melo-dramatic
farce. "A Little Bit Fashioned, "
at the oliver theater on Nov. 20.
Here is something for old age, mid
die age, youth and all ages. A
comedy that goes right to the heart
of every man. woman and child.
1t has an appeal for rich and poor
alike, for it is intensely human and
overlooking with laughter. 1t is
one Of those very exceptional offer
ings IF the theater that do not need

Il has been a long time since any
thing approaching in novelty the
