THEATERS
NORMA TALhtADGE TONIGHT

Inc SoCE0L OL Luc OIOIM SOuu-
try" the new Select production in
which Miss Norma Talmadge is be-
ing presented by Joseph M. Schenck,
has been heralded as one of the big
hits of the season. In it Miss Tai
madge combines pathos and humor,
deep emotions and the joy of living,
and her Interpretation Of the little
squatter girl is one of the finest
things she has ever done. The pic
ture which is being distributed
through the Select exchanges will be
the chief attraction at the Rex thea
ter tonight and tomorrow.
Mother love is the theme employ
ed in "The Secret Of the Storm
Country" in which Joseph M.
Schenck is presenting Norma Tai
madge. Miss Talmadge plays the
role of little squatter girl, to whom
love and marriage come in secret
ways, and her Interpretation of the
character is fine bit of emotional
work.
Tessibel Skinner, daughter Of Orn
Skinner who is serving a life SEN
tense in the penitentiary, is the
adored favorite of the squatter set
tlement on the shores of Lake Cay
uga. She listens to their woes,
fights their battles and binds up
their wounds. Her cup of happiness
is overfilled by the devotion of Fred
erick Graves, young divinity stu
dent, who has persuaded the girl
to marry him secretly. Graves is the
son Of a worldly, ambitious mother

but every club in this league has got

pitchers. Itobble's club may be weak
IN some spots, but 1t Is not in the
