Colorado Shale Oil Fields
Are Worlds Richest

this shale contains in this ledge alone
over 1870. 600 barrels of oil. or 2O,S00 900
barrels in 100 acres-or SO, 200 900 in Il
square mile, while above and below this
ledge OF shale are 300 feet more OF
solid shales that carry from so to 40
gallons to the ton, making four times
the above amount OF oil in each acre.
Considering only the So-foot ledge and
that three-tourths Of it can be mined,
leaving the balance in place for sup
ports and waste. the crude oil pro
duced per acre would be worth nearly
5000 900. on that basis the crude from
square mile, $40 acres, would be
worth Sl2S,0OOO 600 while the refined
product would be valued at several
times that figure"

VIOLET MERSEREAU
 AT KEENEYS 'THEATER

For today and tomorrow Keeneys s is showing the talented star, Violet Mersereau, in the five-part produc- ton, '"The Raggedy Queen" a story full of heart interest that will delight all who see it. Miss Mersereau is ably supported by an all-star cast, includ- ing Harry Mercy, the popular screen star, and this feature gives her great chances to show her clever acting.
 One of the greatest Western pie lures is shown for the last time to- night with Harry Carey, who ranks with w. S. Hart in his portrayal of the Western cow-puncher, in the five-part drama. "Bucking Broadway" the story of a daring cow -pupcher who recovers his lady love from a Broad way cabaret after a chase of 5000 miles across the country. The story deals with the love of a cow-puncher, portrayed by Harry Carey, for the ranch owners daughter. Just as their plans for marrying are accepted by her father along comes Capt. Thorn ton, an army contractor, who is buy ing up horses. After much persuasion she elopes with him to New York and finally the -puncher arrives on Broadway in search for her. How he later finds her and, with the help of the boys from the ranch, who have come East with the horses, succeeds in rescuing her from the clutches of the army captain and his friends, make up a lively story from beginning to end. The picture is full of thrills and action, particularly where the Westerners storm the Broadway cab aret to rescue the girl who was tricked into eloping with the captain.
 A new episode of 'The Hidden Hand'' with Doris Kenyon and Shel- don Lewis, is shown on Friday and Saturday. Several comedies and the Keeney Weekly of current events, with three high-class vaudeville acts, make up a weIl-arranged entertain m ent.

IffiE CAMEO GIRL"
 AT FOX'S THEATER

Fox's newest and prettiest find Jewel Carmen, whose entrancing
 beauty has already gained for her the sobriquet of the Cameo Girl" will make her first starring appearance at Fox's theater today and tomorrow in
 thrilling drama of the Yukon, '"The Kingdom of Love-" Although Miss
 Carmen is new as a star, she is al- ready popular among local theater-
 goers to whom she endeared herself , by her excellent work as William Far
 nun's leading lady in two of his
 greatest successes, FThe Conqueror,"
 and When a, Man Sees Red.'' '"The
 Kingdom of Love- is one of the most
 absorbing and interesting dramas that
 that miracle man of pictures William
 Fox, has ever presented and Jewel
 Carmen proves immediately that she is
 capable of the most brilliant acting and characterization. It is a play which is not only entertaining, but which leaves a deep impression and a great deal to think about. It is
 a drama of human life in which l young woman withstands all the temptations that can beset her and
 keeps her heart and head clear in the ! midst of the iniquity and sordidness l of the Klondike. However, that
 which no personal temptation can ac-
 complish is brought about through the | illness of the heroines mother, from | whose side she has been separated l from infancy. Her salvation comes 1 through the willingness Of a young | minister to give up everything that l is dear to him in order that he might
 save her. How this is worked out,
 the wonderfully thrilling scenes that l take place during it, can only be ap-
 preciated by actually seeing the won derful film. Certainly anyone who cares for splendid moving pictures
 cannot afford to miss a play that has
 so much of strength and human emo- ] tion and thrilling circumstances as
 "The Kingdom of Love-" An inter- l esting coincidence is noted in the 1 fact that Frank Lloyd, who directed
 the picture, also made '"The Heart of
 a Lion," in which William Farnum
 will be seen at Fox's Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Another one of those
 side-sp1itting Sunshine comedies is on i the program today and tomorrow,
 also. It is called Damaged Mo- ! Goods" and is said to be even more
 screamingly funny than '"The Milk Fed Vamp," which created such a l furor in New Britain two weeks ago. i Mutt and Jeff, those cartoon comics, 1 return once more to make us laugh at their quaint absurdities. The Pathe News will also be shown.

MARY PICKFORD A
 HIT AT LYCEUM

The Lyceum management told the public that '"The Little American" starring Mary Pickford, which heads the program today and tomorrow was better than the average, that it was a revelation, a, sermon in it's most pleas ant form, a bitter arraignment of the worst monster the world has known, the fulfillment of a patriotic duty and an awakening to the truth of the world situation, and there was no camouflage used. It is the truth pure and simple. Advance notices sent out by the management were based on claims of the producers and com- ments made by people in cities that had previously viewed it. Last ight the picture was thrown on the screen here and listen-you remember what was claimed for that picture? You do? We'll the management refuses to reneague, because every word fro nth beginning to the end was the truth, unalloyed.
 Thre is not an ounce of doubt that Miss PickfOrd's production is the greatest thing she has ever done. It is the most timely picture that can be presented, and 1t is given in a manner that awakens in every human, civilized being, every ounce of hatred that can be held for a country and a systema that is as deSpicable as the German Fkultur" and the men who have made it. Everybody knows what France suffered. Everybody. knows why that country will go down in his- tory as the greatest and most gen. erous country now taking part in the mos massive war ever staged. With France as it's background and the big gest story ever filmed, to tell, '"The Little American" sends it's dart quiv- ering into the heart of the very world
 Battle scenes that are unequallcd d and that show the motion picture art at is highest; dramatic scenes of in- tensity so severe that they fairly root the watcher to his seat; acting that will remain he criterion of art for months to come, and lastly, a great big, smashing theme that rouses and invigorates. A lot was expected of this offering, a lot is given. To miss it means the loss of all that is good in motion pictures. Big audiences yesterday afternoon and last evening voted it masterpiece. See it before it leaves. Besides this wOnder-pic ture the Lyceum program will have a Keystone comedy, the Lyceum Weekly and several other good pic- lures.
